We stayed in a River View room for a few nights. The staff was very friendly. The rooms were basic, but kept well. The tours may seem pricey online, but the transportation was included. Our drives were typically an hour to our drop off locations. They did an amazing job setting up fun and pretty tours! You get free canoe,... More

We stayed at The Black Orchid in the month of January. It was true delight. The staff was so helpful and accommodating, the food was great and the grounds were well maintained. Our room looked out onto the river and we were able to enjoy the peaceful hammocks and lounge chairs poolside. We used the resorts Kayaks to explore the... More

We were so comfortable at The Black Orchid Resort! The room was clean and spacious. We had a porch to sit on to watch the iguanas in the trees. The staff was so gracious and helpful, we felt pampered all week. They helped arrange our activities each day and we saw all the places we had wanted to see in... More

My husband and I were in San Ignacio and then traveled to CC. Honestly, we weren't into CC and cancel our last night in CC. We were leaving early the next day, and needed to be closer to Belize City. I looked here and decided to go for it. We called and arranged for the free shuttle to pick us... More

We only stayed for one night at the Black Orchid, but we loved our stay. Rooms are clean, but pretty basic. 1) Free airport pickup. This was actually a big factor for us in picking a location. Most of the Belize City hotels would have required us to rent a car and then pay additional for parking. 2) Great location!... More

Black Orchid resort on the Belize River outside Belize City was a wonderful last minute find for my family of 5. With 3 young boys in tow, it is not easy to find places where they can run free and enjoy nature in an environment that is comfortable, beautiful and has great service... Black Orchid ticks all the right boxes.... More

We stayed here for 2 nights. It was a great resort that was not too far form the airport and was along the route to go to most of the different excursions. Very clean rooms and great food. We would stay there again. We did several excursions while we there.

I have been to Belize 8 times in less than 4 years. All but one of those times I stayed at the Black Orchid. Like all businesses, they aren't perfect but Doug, Karen and their staff strive to be as close to perfect as they can. Doug and Karen (the owners) are Belizean but spent many years in the states....
