Cabana 1 -Modern amenities cabin, on the banks of the Belize River

Santa Elena

"We stayed for a one night getaway and it was absolutely perfect! The setting is so quiet and peaceful and private. Woke up to beautiful bird sounds and parrots flying overhead. Enjoyed our coffee on the porch while it rained! Wonderful luxury down pillows and bedding and bathroom was great as well! Christelle was so kind and welcomed us in and showed us to our cabana! Wonderful setting. Highly recommend! :)"

Pilgrim's Paradise Cabin 2

San Ignacio

"The cabin was pleasant, had basic necessities. I deducted two stars because there was absolutely NO COMMUNICATION from the host. The site said there would be no one present at check in and directions would be sent prior to arrival. I heard nothing, even after reaching out multiple times. I was concerned about arriving in early evening and not knowing how to get in. Turns out there was a lock with a key in it in the front door. Also, not this host’s fault, but it was IMPOSSIBLE to get through...

Top Santa Elena Hotel Reviews

Cahal Pech Village Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Interesting finding how the light system worked with key card. Property beautiful, Food excellent. Low on amenities in the bathroom but that was okay. Just need to be prepared. Will hopefully be able to go back and enjoy the property and the location"

Ka'ana Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I truly have no words for Ka’Ana Resort. From the moment we arrived, we were blown away. The grounds are absolutely beautiful—lush, peaceful, and the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring Belize. But what made our stay unforgettable was the staff. The level of hospitality and genuine care we received was unlike anything we’ve ever experienced. It was true concierge service, and every single person went above and beyond to make our stay special. The food was exceptional. Every dinner was outstanding, and we loved the special touches like fireside s’mores and the BBQ night. Breakfast each morning was equally delicious and consistently exceeded our expectations. If you’re planning a trip to San Ignacio to visit the Mayan ruins, explore the ATM Cave, or experience all that western Belize has to offer, I can’t recommend Ka’Ana enough. It was one of the highlights of our trip, and we would stay here again without hesitation!!"

Mystic River Resort

10/10 Excellent

"I had the pleasure of staying at the Mystic River Resort in Early June and the whole experience has made me fall in love with Belize. The property is immaculately maintained and incredibly clean, my room was upgraded free of charge which included a plunge pool on the balcony which definitely added to the experience !. The property overlooks the Macal river which adds an ethereal vibe to the whole experience and is surrounded by a myriad of varying wildlife. The staff really re-defined amazing hospitality for me, they were both kind and always went the extra mile whenever required no ask was too big or too small and they are true credit to the establishment, service was always presented with a smile and their was no forceful upselling and everything was done in a kind and appreciative manner. The food was also something out of this world with a selection of Belizean, American and both Mayan and Garifuna food available. The excursions on offer were also varied and exciting and health and safety was always prioritized and they were easy to book onto. I truly miss seeing the humming birds at breakfast flying in and out of the restaurant and the sound of the river and the toucans in the evening. Overall it has re-defined what true hospitality and experience means to me and have thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience so much so I cannot wait to return !."

The Maya Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were friendly and accommodating. The room was great. The property's jungle setting and landscaping made me feel like I was in a jungle. And while not a nightly occurrence, having howler monkeys howling the first evening really set the tone to remind me I wasn't in California. A special callout to the staff at Fiona's restaurant, the food was great, but talking with the staff there was super fun. I would recommend Maya Mountain Lodge to anyone and everyone."
