The Black Orchid was our first stop on our trip all over Belize. What an incredible pick! We organized all of our excursions through the hotel and they all went off without a hitch! We did Al Tun Ha Mayan Ruins, Cave Tubing, and Ziplining. The entire staff was so incredibly helpful and kind. The entire Staff from the front... More

We got off our plane and our ride to Black Orchid was there, our room was clean, ready and the Black Orchid staff did everything they could to make our stay comfortable. We had drinks from the bar and ate dinner in the restaurant - the service was great, beer was cold and local, and the meal was fresh and... More

From the moment we got to the black orchid resort the staff were more than accommodating. We did the lamanai Mayan tour, which included a river boat ride. We saw so many of the local wildlife, don't forget to bring bananas for the monkeys. We also did the crystal cave tubing and zip lining both of which were amazing. The... More

Like the last reviewer we stayed for one night on our way elsewhere, and we were very pleased with the time we spent there. I selected this sight because I had heard the Howler monkeys can be heard there the evening and early mornings. I love to listen to them and they didn't disappoint me! In fact, while we were... More

Used the Black Orchid as a last stop on a 2 week Belize trip before flying home. The rooms were very nice. The pool was refreshing. Meals were tasty and the wait staff were very nice. When we checked in, the woman at the front desk was hard to get any information from and not the least bit welcoming. We... More

Nice hotel, clean rooms, cute pool, nice setting by the river. Not too much close by however with the exception of the airport, you have to leave the hotel on an excursion to see most anything. Wouldn't necessarily stay here again unless I was arriving late or leaving early from the airport but it is a good choice for a... More

My friend and I spent a week here, and we had a wonderful time. All of the staff but particularly Justine, Ryan, Eder, Shawn, and the manager, Beverly, made us feel as if we were part of the family. They were friendly, welcoming, and took excellent care of us. We stayed at the Clarisabel. Our room was spacious and clean.... More

On our way to a sailing vacation and needed to overnight in Belize City. We did not want to be downtown and were glad to have the free transport to and from the airport. Totally relaxing by the pool, authentic food at the restaurant and great staff arranged for all of our needs, even providing an unplanned evening trip to... More

We stayed here last summer and had a great time. The room was large and comfortable. The staff was extremely accommodating. Would definitely recommend a stay here. They will pick you up from the airport and stop at the store on the way to the resort. Buy enough snacks,beer etc. for your entire stay. It's difficult to get to a... More

By far the best experience I've ever had at a resort. My sister's and I felt like part of the family. Everyone seem to love their jobs and it was so refreshing and calming. As soon as we arrived we asked for a canoe to bird watch on the Belize river. We are all 60 and over and they were... More
