What an enchanting place (peaceful & secluded) – conveniently located just off the highway, but feeling very remote, and like you are deep in the wilds of Belize! Fruiting palms around the cabins attract toucans, trogons & motmots right outside your door, which makes this a thrilling spot for bird watchers! We were so mesmerized, we spent our entire time just here! The owners have kept the surrounding forest intact, while also landscaping the pathways with wondrous tropical foliage and exquisite flowering plants! Our favorites were the gorgeous Hibiscus blossoms, & the dainty clusters of Belize’s national flower – the Black Orchid!
We loved our cabin – very spacious & “homey,” with a fully stocked kitchenette, dazzling hummingbird/parrot/bromeliad artwork on the walls, cheery floral curtains, beautifully crafted wooden dining table, attractive bathroom/shower stocked with sunscreens, shampoos, & soaps, and a MOST lovely screened deck that beckoned the jungle sights & sounds right into the balcony!
Most meals we prepared ourselves (with grocery shopping nearby - either by taxi or rental car), but one enchanted evening, the co-owner, Rose, prepared an elegant, outdoor dinner for us & 2 guests in her on-site “Hummingbird Kitchen” (where she also made breakfasts for guests). Rose also gave me a special cooking lesson on how to make “Fried Jacks” – which were delicious fresh from the frypan, & drizzled with honey! We highly recommend this VRBO!
