This was one of the most amazing and unique vacation spots we have ever been to. The drive there is a bumpy one and worth the trip. The lodge is located in the Mountain Pine Ridge Reserve and provides all kinds of unique vegetation, wildlife and adventure. Our honeymoon cabana overlooked the river, and one of its many waterfalls. The... More

I don't want to review this because I don't want everyone to know about this special place. Most amazing stay that I have ever had anywhere. Its absolutely magical. The people who work there are so knowledgeable and kind. We visited the spa, and it was pretty good. The man was a bit on the rough side, but I usually... More

This is a place that combines luxury with adventure. This is the first eco-lodge I have been to but not my first time in Belize. They do it right. The lodges are private and on the river. There is hiking, horseback riding, history. The food is awesome. And the service is impeccable. They have conch shell two-way intercom to the... More

I recently returned for my first trip to Central America. I spent a few days experiencing both Belize & Guatemala, and stayed at all three Coppola Resorts, Blancaneaux Lodge & Turtle Inn in Belize, and La Lancha in Guatemala. I traveled with a friend and we kicked off our trip with a stay at Blancaneaux Lodge, which is about a... More

I mean incredible. Both to the ruins and to ATM. - The indoor and the outdoor showers in the deluxe room are amazing. - Great service and staff. - Great drinks at... More

This is a good place for a couple or a family that wants the luxuries of an American Hotel in a third world country jungle inn. It does not have air conditioning but you don't need it (at least when we were there in April) because you sleep in charming little huts with open screens. At night the staff comes... More

Our experience at Blancaneaux Lodge was exquisite. The staff was super friendly and helpful, our cabana had our own private pool. The attention to detail was amazing. We loved the outdoor shower and thoroughly enjoyed the dining and the river and waterfalls running through the property added to the ambience. According to staff such celebrities as Bill Gates, Anne Hathaway,... More

I can't understand the praise this place has got unless it is for historical reaons and the love of the Godfather movies (which I share.). In many ways it is like a medicore luxury resort plunked down in the jungle. Not only is it expensive but nothing is "for free." Anything you want to do outside of the hotel (and... More

It's an adventure just getting there, then pure paradise! We had the private & luxurious Coppola villa. Open air living & dining room, screened in bedrooms. Sound of the beautiful river right outside our villa lulled us to sleep each night. Juan, our "butler", took care of our every need and whim. Brought us delicious breakfast each morning - we... More
