About the Hotel

Backpackers trekking through the jungle highlands of Belize a few years ago occasionally stumbled onto a rustic place called Blancaneaux Lodge - then a row of thatched huts above an idyllic valley, where waterfalls drop into granite pools lined with tiger ferns while parrots roost in the palmettos. Francis Ford Coppola himself stumbled upon this same enchanted retreat in the Mountain Pine Ridge reserve in 1981. "I'd been looking for some kind of tropical utopia," Coppola says. "This was the paradise hideaway I was looking for." The rest is history... Welcome to Blancaneaux Lodge.

Reviews for Blancaneaux Lodge

AMAZING EXPERIENCE- Top notch service

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 days ago

I cannot speak more highly of our visit! From start to finish the lodge and staff were impeccable! I absolutely loved the lodge, nestled in the mountains I truly felt like I was in another world. The food was so fresh and amazing, highly recommend doing the garden dinner, we are not vegetarians and we LOVED it. The staff is beyond amazing, they take impeccable care of you. Our son got sick during our stay and all the staff checked on him and they arranged to take us to a local clinic to get antibiotics. We had Alex as a tour guide and I’m positive he’s the best in Belize; friendly, professional, personable and so knowledgeable! We learned a ton and he was wonderful to spend time with. Overall this is a fantastic place to stay and I would highly recommend!

Wonderful visit, hated to leave.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Warm and welcoming staff. Very accommodating and knowledgeable about everything. Lots of stairs, so I was able to work off extra calories from the delicious cocktails! The room was spacious, comfortable and extremely clean. Tillandsias and bromeliads everywhere. Just beautiful plantings. Ceviche is excellent and try the house made hot sauce. Ooo! Ask Manny for a rum tasting! The gift shop is well stocked with goodies.

Beautiful and exceeds all expectations

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

I stayed for a week at Blancaneaux with a friend. The property is beautiful, the tours and guides are top notch, and the food is really good, did I mention the cocktails? Delicious. Top all that off with the most welcoming and genuinely friendly staff who will make you not want to leave. Highly recommend, and hope to visit again.

Amazing food, next level service!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 months ago

I arrived at the lodge for a stay on August 22-24,2025 as a very avid local traveler, optimistic for another stay at a new place. Arrival; They honestly blew my expectations out of the water! From arriving we were greeted kindly by forestry check-point officers and also the resort’s friendly security team! The front desk wonderfully prepared cold towels and an awesome welcome drink and made the check-in process a breeze informing us of everything we needed to know. The general manager even personally came down and greeted us which is such a great touch that I’ve never seen before! Accommodations; The room was AMAZING, an old rustic charm that was cleaned pristinely (as I can be a neat freak) and the housekeeping staff were friendly and on point each and every time with amenities and attending to any queries we had. (The rooms has literally ALL the information on the resort that you’ll ever need!) Activities; The resort had about 4 complimentary activities (if I remember correctly) that were actually beautifully executed and had other activities that you can inquire about. Service; I’ve been to many notable properties with impeccable customer service, but by far Blancaneaux has left me lost for words. Everyone from the bell boys, to servers, to housekeepers, to front desk, to even security are keen, noting details and friendly! They seem to even be communicating respectively to maximize customer service; They remember our names, make conversations to figure out our plans to assist the respective departments and everyone is so friendly! (I work in the service industry, so I’m speaking from a business standpoint) Food; The food was point blank, amazing! Waiters were keen, attentive and never even let my water goblet go empty without already promptly refilling; The resort is ran like a well oiled machine! I will definitely be returning to stay again! Thank you Blancaneaux Team for the impeccable service!

We stayed at the Turtle Inn and Blancaneaux Lodge for a week in October, and it was the best vacation we have ever taken. The cabanas and cottages were lovely, the staff was incredible, and the food was outstanding. It's rare that you come home from vacation without a single negative thing to say - our only criticism is that we couldn't stay longer! It was truly an amazing experience.
