Chan Chich Lodge, a renowned Belizean resort at the forefront of private conservation since the 1980s. In the heart of Northern Belize Orange Walk district within a vast wilderness area, the lodge offers a secluded and immersive experience in nature. Nestled amidst 30,000 acres of pristine wilderness, providing tranquility and seclusion surrounded by an additional half a million acres of protected conservation lands, an exceptional opportunity to witness an abundance of wildlife viewing. Thank you to the amazing personnel!!
First, Nisha, the manager is a gem. Second, what could be bad about sitting by a jungle river and relaxing. But I love out of the way and rustic. Some won't. But think of this. I woke in the morning to hundreds of snowy egrets looping over the river. An occasional tarpon surfaced and a croc swam by. Ah...!
Sitting on the deck and enjoying the beauty of nature
Pick up by boat to Lamanai archeological reserve was also a wonderful examination of the local flora and fauna.

Great location if you are exploring Lamanai Maya site, regardless if you are going on the boat or with the car, nice view of the lagoon, friendly staff, great medium priced restaurant (I wouldn't eat anywhere else in Orange, looked very run down), spacious room with balcony and AC.
Improvements needed ... dirty balcony and bathroom with animal poop, i don't know what they do daily except made the bed as nothing was cleaned ... no signs anywhere where to park where to check in (smart thing is to come during the daylight), very soft old matresses, no drinks menu at the bar so you hope they charge you correctly. Few small improvements can make this place 9, and maybe some rooms were 9 but ours was 7. Would stay again for 1 night.

We only walked around town for a bit in the one morning that we were there. I doubt whether there's much in Orange Walk to stay for but there are things you can do outside town that would probably be worth it.

Orange Walk is a walkable town along a river with a few markets, shops, restaurants, and hotels. Day and Night Hotel seemed to be one of the better ones. Buses run frequently on the main road and taxis are available. It was a 2.5 hour ride from Belize City.
