The grounds are beautiful The cottages are isolated but close to the pool and small restaurant and lounge. A peaceful resort to spend a leisurely time in Belize I can’t complement the staff enough Efficient helpful and kind The food was excellent. The chef amazing The quality of the dishes belong in a gourmet restaurant Do yourselves a favor and stay at this resort Maybe Bruno the monkey will come and visit you on your porch

Distance from town—you will need a taxi or rental

Beautiful surroundings

The ants but it’s apart of being in the forest.

The staff are extremely helpful. Helped with booking my tour and shuttles.

We stayed in the Orchid cabin, and although there was AC in the bedrooms, there was not AC in the main living space or bathroom. It was very hot and unpleasant to take a shower or try to relax in that part of the cabin. If they would add another AC unit in the main living space, it would have been perfect!

Vanilla Hills is like a little private jungle oasis. There are only a few cabins, so it is very quiet (besides the howler monkeys) and not overrun with people. I liked that you got your own private cabin. The restaurant, bar, and pool area were beautifully designed, and completely surrounded by plants and exotic wildlife. The food was absolutely phenomenal, and the staff were extremely polite, helpful, and accommodating. They were all very personable and made an effort to actually talk to us, which made us feel very welcome.

Ants! But what can you do? You’re in the jungle.

In the middle of the jungle and it’s so private

Signage to the resort could be more obvious, as it can be a bit tricky to find.

This is a small, beautifully done resort. The cabins feel very private yet are not that far apart. You feel like you're staying in the forest though the other facilities are close at hand.

The shower in the cottage felt a bit outdated in comparison to everything else

Tucked away and private, close to SI, wonderful staff, meandering paths and birds!

Wonderful setting nestled in the hills of San Ignacio. Wildlife on the property was active in the mornings which was fun to watch.

Located near xunantunich which meant we could have an early start and arrival to the ruins. Lots of wildlife and birds on property. We enjoyed the pool and the jungle setting!

Obviously it wasn't cheap, but that was known up front. Wifi was spotty in our tree house.

Food onsite was excellent. The tree houses were nestled in nature, but not isolated. Wildlife all around, especially coati and various birds. Staff was attentive but not intrusive. It was out of town, but not so far that you couldn't easily get a taxi in. There is also a pool with plenty of shady spots. Indoor/outdoor shower was amazing and a/c worked wel. Wonderful experience.

Franklin and Claudia, the eco lodge owners, have created a wonderful eco lodge in the jungle outside of San Ignacio. We enjoyed spending time with them chatting on a variety of topics. Their staff is outstanding! Warm, professional, and friendly, always taking the extra step to make sure we were taken care of. This was great place to stay while exploring Tikal, the ATM cave, San Ignacio and other sites.

Loved the setting, the staff and the food. Our trip to the ATM cave was a incredible. We were so happy to experience wild caving with great guiding at an advanced age.

Pool was a bit cool and then under repair while we were there. Excursions from the resort were a pretty pricey as the resort is in a central location but not really close to any major attractions. Excellent guides and nice to not have to drive, especially to get to the caves, which would have been hard/impossible to drive to on our own. We never felt unsafe had we chose to drive. If you choose to drive, watch out for the frequent, large speed bumps!

Staying in one of the tree houses was unique and fun, although be sure to keep your bathroom door closed at night. Bugs will be attracted to the light in the room! Beautiful woodwork! The on-site restaurant was excellent and the staff were equally as good. It was fun to watch the birds and animals at breakfast! All arrangements for transportation and tours were made by the hotel and all drivers were excellent. Great boutique resort a bit off the beaten path and nice for a 3 night stay.

Food was excellent. Bit expensive for Belize, but worth it in my opinion. Staff was super helpful. Good place to do a day trip to Tikal.

The fourth bed was a sofa bed; not so comfortable.

Nice house with enough space. So friendly people. Arranged the ATM tour for us.

I would have wished for at least some Belizean dishes in the restaurant menu, not only European / international cuisine. When in Belize I want to experience local flavours and not the same thing I can eat at home every day. Plus, honestly, no matter how well tarte flambee is done in Belize it will never surpass the real one from Alsace.

Beautiful hotel with so amazing cottages. Extremely clean and well built cabins, also very private. Beautiful and cozy landscaping all over with nice light and wildlife sounds. So cool outdoor showers in the cabins. Big beautiful pool and cozy sitting area. Very kind and personal service.

One thing to note is the resort is pretty far out of town so you have to either take a cab into town and back or eat at the hotel restaurant every meal (delicious but adds up). If you have a rental car this would be no problem! Also, there were a good number of insects that made their way into the room despite my best efforts (mostly ants, a variety of beetles, small spiders, a few mosquitoes and one firefly) but what can you expect in the jungle!

This resort is absolutely gorgeous and it was probably the most personalized service I’ve experienced at a hotel. For example, one morning I asked the front desk to help me call a cab to Xunantunich and when they saw me come back that evening they immediately asked “how was Xunantunich?” I was traveling solo and the owners kindly extended invitations to join other groups for meals or at the lounge to make sure I felt included. The food at the restaurant was also exceptional and beautifully presented, and the cocktails at the bar were amazing, including the yummy welcome drink on arrival. I loved all the thoughtful little touches in the room like the cute towel art that was left every day on my bed. It was also really helpful to have the filtered water dispenser up at the front.

I truly can’t think of anything that I didn’t like during my stay at the resort.

The food was delicious and how it was presented was absolutely stunning. The tour of the facilities was great and I truly felt welcomed after a long trip.
