Chan Chich Lodge

Arriving at Chan Chich was like arriving at a jungle paradise. We were welcomed by accommodating, flexible and friendly staff. People like Shawn, Ruben, Alias and all the others were outstanding and made us feel at home. The only way to feel closer to nature would be camping in a tent. However, the accommodations were so comfortable. The outstanding fresh farm to table meals were incredibly delicious, including the fresh coffee. Supporting the conservation efforts of Chan Chich and Gallon Jug Farm left us with a meaningful experience. We enjoyed many on site tours and one off site tour to the ATM cave. All were memorable experiences during which we saw many species of birds and other animals, geological wonders in the cave and Mayan Archaeological sites. We learned a great deal about the Mayan people and about Belize. I would give my highest recommendations to anyone interested in experiencing the jungle in a peaceful laid back manner that melts any stress away.

Chan Chich Lodge was absolutely magical! It was the standout experience from our Belize trip. We had great tours with Luis and Ruben! Highly recommend the farm tour and the night animal tour. We saw puma, tapir, crocodile, foxes.. Everyone went above and beyond to make sure we felt at home, which we absolutely did! Also loved meeting so many different people from all over. We will definitely be back!

Chan Chich provided a special home away from home for our 30th anniversary. The accommodation was just what we wanted, the food was EXCEPTIONAL, the talk on local wildlife an game cameras was amazing, the staff made us feel welcome and cared for. We cannot say enough good things about this special place, the management or the staff. Truly exceptional in all ways. I feel refreshed that such wild places remain and are cared for. We will be back soon.

The three hour drive was very pleasant great scenery along the way farms forest valleys villages. Roads were great until last couple miles lil bumpy. The Grounds of the Lodge has beautiful tall trees lots of birds and some wildlife. The pool has the freshest rain water. Dinners were excellent. Unique setting in unexcavated Maya Ruins. Hiking footwear is a must as is a binoculars. Very comfortable beds with mosquito net. Cabins are very spacious.

The family and I spent a long and lovely weekend at Chan Chich, and we absolutely loved it! There was something for everyone! My brothers signed up for the night drive and horseback riding, the coffee lovers booked the Farm Tour (which includes a tour of the coffee plantation and roasting process,) those who wanted something relaxed got to lounge at the pool or do a self-guided walk around the lodge. We got to see endless deer, birds, foxes, and many other critters. The staff was welcoming and accommodating. Shout-out to Mr Luis, who was our guide for most of the tours! We will return :)
