Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The property looks like it had better days and was probably at it's prime about 10 years ago. The sky deck is no longer maintained which is unfortunate as it has a fantastic tree height view of howler monkeys. Canoe's were old and un-maintained. Food good. Pool area good. No pickup at Airport even when confirmed twice that a pickup would occur. Good for 1 or 2 nights only as there isn't anything to do in the area, unless you want to take tours offsite.

Very good service and very good food. Lovely location along the river and some 15 minutes to the airport. The Reception manager was very kind to allow us to remain in the same room for two different reservations. Very active howler monkeys and mosquitoes are around!

The staff at restaurant was excellent and accommodating. This is the perfect place for an inexpensive clean room, without the bells and whistles. Beware! The door to your room has a 2 inch gap.

Nice quaint resort off the beaten path. Fish cakes and vegetable pealla in restaurant was delicious. Mario, the driver was a godsend. He was patient, courteous, knowledgeable about Belizean history/culture and a very good Black Orchid ambassador!!
