We stayed here from 12/24 for four nights! We really enjoyed this lodge and can highly recommend it. We stayed first in a Treehouse Suite. These rooms (only four) are gorgeous. (We stayed in Number 19 which I believe has the nicest and highest location). Build up on stilts in the trees. Large rooms and beautiful woods were used. They also provide outside and inside showers. We had a kingsize bed with 400 thread-count sheets and down pillows. The view from the rooms is wonderful and they are all open to the sights and sounds of the rainforest. We then moved to the next category room, a jungle suite. These are the second most expensive rooms, but are rather primitive compared to the treehouses. Very basic, but nice and clean. This is my only gripe with the lodge. The new bungalows which are a price category below the jungle suites are much nicer and all new. More similar actually to the treehouse suites. I am not sure why the hotel is pricing the jungle suites more expensively than the new bungalows. The jungle suites and bungalows are closer to the road into the resort and so you will hear the trucks that take people on to the activities early in the morning.

The setting of the lodge is far removed from towns. It is nicely located at a river. If you are expecting to see much wildlife and to hear many varied jungle sounds, you may be disappointed. The lodge is too large and too populated with tourists to really attract a lot of wildlife. However, you may see some on your tours. I would recommend the all-inclusive packages. They are worth the price. The food however is nothing special and maybe the most disappointing aspect of the lodge. Also, the water pressure is very low and thus it is hard to get a very hot or strong shower.

The tours are very special and wonderful. We did the Waterfall Hike during which you are in a cave for about 2 miles and then you climb waterfalls inside the cave from which you later jump back down. Some as high as about 15 feet. Exhilerating. We also did the repelling which was a wonderful and adventuresome trip. Canoeing was more relaxing. The guides are knowledgable and very professional. I would stay at this lodge again. Great place!

Would have like to stayed longer!! Our family of four stayed here for 3 nights. The food was excellent--plenty of it and lots of fresh fruit and veggies. Our bugalow was great but close to the mainhouse so we were woken up every morning to the roar of the worker trucks arriving at 7:00. Perhaps a bungalow further away from the road would be quieter. The outdoor shower was fantastic. The tours were the best feature--we took the cave waterfall hike and the tubing/ceremonial cave trip. Expect to be wet the whole time. They tell you to wear hiking boots, but Keens with the closed toe worked just fine and then you have dry hiking boots for the rest of your vacation. The trips were well organized, had knowledgable tour guides and great lunches inside the cave. But is that REALLY 1000 year old Mayan ashes in the caves??!! I would have like to see this resort be a bit more green--because it would be fitting for this place. How about biodgradable soap in the rooms, toilet paper from recycled paper, and dry bags for the tours guides instead of all those ziplock baggies? Nevertheless, a great place.

If you want a great adventure in the jungle, this is the place to go.

My favorite adventure is the Waterfall Cave adventure.

The people are great there and the prices are reasonable. The accommodations are better than you would expect from the description on the web site and the food is great and no one goes away hungry. The
cabins are not resort hotel type, but are great for people who appreciate the outdoors.

Their web site gives a good accurate description of everything there.

Stayed at Ian Anderson's as part of a tour through Slickrock Adventures. Where else could I have experienced a Jungle Shower? You haven't lived until you've had one! We stayed in the Jungle Cabanas and slept very comfortably.

We also did the cave tubing-a great excursion and you should absolutely look into it! Our guide was very knowledgable and I felt very relaxed. We did jungle mountain biking and river kayaking as well. Another day was an excursion to Xunantunich. All the equipment was well-maintained, which I appreciated. I recommend any of the excursions offered. Can't speak highly enough about the experience.
