I didn't stay at this hotel but only went there for the birding tours so I am writing this report from that point of view. The guides are excellent and know the birds and where to find them. I saw Aracari and other nice birds right from the deck at the lodge. I took three tours with them. On one... More

We spent 4 nights at Crystal Paradise. First of all it was a great location. Everything in the jungle is spaced out, and I felt like we were about in the middle. I had been told the road that it is on, was awful....it had just been scraped before we arrived, and was not bad at all, but even if... More

We just got back from spending 4 nights at Crystal Paradise followed by 3 nights at the Singing Sands. The whole vacation was organized by Crystal Paradise and it was perfect! We thoroughly enjoyed all the tours near San Ignacio and our accommodations could not have been better. Comfy beds, lots of birds, more food than we could possibly eat... More

We just spent 5 days @ Crystal Paradise...tasty family meals, friendly atmosphere and lots of fun with Carolita during meals. The birding was excellent, staff were knowledgable & the tours of Tikal & the ATM Caves were fantastic. We loved our thatched roof cabannas with the hammock on the fron porch. The grounds were lovely with a grat variety of... More

Just returned from spending two weeks in Belize. The first week we stayed at Crystal Paradise Resort while we explored the area around San Ignacio. Crystal Paradise was perfect! Close enough to town and places of interest and far enough out into the jungle to be quiet and relaxing. Peaceful, beautiful grounds, lots of birds and excellent food! The staff... More

Pros: Beautiful grounds, fantastic food (which varies daily), great service (very attentive to the point that my needs were often addressed before i had the chance to ask), charming thatched roof huts, (Belizean) family run feel. Cons (these are minor): Older birder crowd, beds a little uncomfortable but okay Overall: Great value and highly recommended. You get a jungle lodge... More

Can't say enough about how helpful the staff was with our travel hiccups. Jeroni is like a Belize travel magician. Nothing he couldn't seem to get done. The room was fantastic and super clean, family style meals were excellent and provided a great opportunity to chat with other guests about their adventures for the day. We went to the ruins... More

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this lovely, family run resort. The grounds of the resort are well taken care of and the essence of the jungle surrounds you. I was a solo traveller and received a warm welcome at the airport which continued until the end of my trip. I was able to join other travellers on day trips... More

Just returned from a weekend stay at Crystal Paradise and it's a great family run inn that gives you the real Belizean experience. It's birdwatcher's paradise and they are bird watching experts. Their resort offers great value, a great place to stay if you will be in the San Ignacio area and a great jumping off point to get to... More
