Food was mediocre to terrible They couldn’t even make a decent pot of coffee in the morning. The lamb at dinner was like shoe soles and had to be returned. Considering that we were captive audience in this beautiful place, the food really ruined the experience.

Amazing Lodge in the Jungle
This is a beautiful place to stay in the jungle near Belmopan. Service is fantastic - 5 types of mojitos and great food. Little secluded rooms that are very romantic. But beware of the road to get there - when we were there in June 2021 they were doing major works and it took much much longer than expected.

Perfect getaway
Simply one of the best hotel I’ve ever been to. Staff, service, food, the area, the views. Everything just perfect. The garden is so special, best dinner and best place. We simply loved it.

Property and food is excellent. They need to re-do all the stairs. They don't work and flow well. It is an easy correction but it is all wrong. Amazes me that Mr. Coppola being Italian failed on this when the Romans were the champions of roads and accesses. They set the standards for the next milleniums.
