Blancaneaux Lodge

Blown away! Blancaneaux Lodge is absolutely beautiful! The grounds, the flora and fauna, the serenity, and the activities are all fantastic! We did sunrise bird watching, horseback riding, multiple walks around the grounds, and a trio to Caracol, which were all spectacular, especially Caracol! Every activity guide was better than the last and so incredibly knowledgeable. The staff were all so warm attentive and friendly. You can tell they are genuinely excited to help you at the front desk, serve you food and drinks, share their knowledge of the country, the landscape, and animals. Take every opportunity you have to experience the activities at the Lodge! We ate at the Guatemalan restaurant one night, the Garden Restaurant (vegetarian) one night (which was such a fantastic experience complete with a garden tour), and the main restaurant the rest of our 5 day stay. A staff member told us that 70% of the food at the Lodge is grown on the grounds and all of the food at the Garden restaurant is grown in the garden! Such a treat! I thought for a second that maybe we'd be bored with the restaurants because there was literally nothing else around (we are accostomed to venturing around and going off resort on vacations), but no way! The food was excellent and never fell short! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the Lodge. Our room was enormous and so incredibly relaxing and beautiful inside and outside. The landscape and surrounding area were like nothing I have experienced before and I learned so much about the ecosystem, history of Belize and the Mayan civilization. Staying here uplifted my spirit and mind! I wholeheartedly would recommend this place to friends, couples or families!

Stayed here with my family, to include children ages 13, 10, 7. What a fun and unique lodging experience. Book all of your tours and transfers with them so that things are seamless, and by all means take the cooking class in the garden. It's charming!

Amazing place. The staff, location, food rooms and facilities were 10/10. We even booked another night as we didn’t want to leave. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this hotel and will definitely be coming back in the near future. Thank you to all the staff for making it such our stay such an enjoyable time.

THIS WAS ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING VACATION EXPERIENCES OF MY LIFE! EDMUND AND THE ENTIRE STAFF WERE INCREDIBLE AND THEY ARE ALL SUCH ASSETS TO YOUR TEAM. EDMUND WENT WAY ABOVE AND BEYOND! HEIDI ZETINA WAS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH!! THIS IS A MUST DO WHILE IN BELIZE.

Blancaneaux Lodge was truly incredible. Attentive and friendly staff, wonderful food, lots to do, gorgeous surroundings. Trails on premises to a lovely waterfall. One of the best bars I've seen at a hotel in decor. Would go back in a heartbeat.
