Reviews for El Pescador
Excellent experience!
El Pescador was such a gem of an operation!! Staff were absolutely amazing and so helpful, remembered us by name and were so attentive to any needs we had! Fishing guides were great and really knew the fishery, super helpful and dialed in with the tides. Caught bonefish, permit and tarpon, Dayan especially was incredible! Room was clean every afternoon upon returning from fishing which was so kind! Will absolutely return!

This was my 3rd trip to El Pescador and as usual everything and everyone were wonderful. The fishing was great as were the food and accommodations. The staff are wonderful and feel like family.

World Class service and Fly Fishing
El Pescador lodge, in beautiful and friendly Ambergris Caye, Belize is certainly one of the top lodge/destinations in the world for fly fishing tarpon, permit and bonefish. The staff and guides at the lodge are professional and like “family”. My group caught a grand slam in April, plus additional tarpon and permit, and we caught 5 tarpon last week (November). I highly recommend the lodge for husband and wife teams even if one does not fish. The pool and massage treatments are terrific. They just opened a separate dive facility for scuba. Family style food offerings are terrific and delicious. The bar is cozy and fun. ***** 5 Stars!

El Pescador has carved out a real niche for itself. Its combination of comfortable and gracious living in a totally relaxed, outdoor setting is unique and has a charm all its own. When asked by Steve for our suggestions about how to make it better, we were hard pressed to come up with anything substantive.
I don't know whether you embrace all of your guests as you did our little family, but we felt as though we were being welcomed into a wonderfully warm, interesting, and entertaining family that we were only too happy to be adopted by.
