This is not your typical vacation! The rooms are cool jungle huts. The food is all prepared for you and meals ate typically eaten with the other guests. Excursions are ok. The grounds are beautiful. More

My wife and I just returned from a 4-day "Babymoon" at CTL during the end of January/beginning of February. We had an amazing time. I've really never been on a trip like this. It's not a resort in the traditional sense and it isn't camping either, so I guess it should be in its own category of adventure lodging. I... More

I was at CTL for 6 nights 7 days and seriously attempted to make the most of every day. I'm now leaving tomorrow morning (WiFi has worked great btw) and feel I would need to book several more trips to see half of what this area offers. The cabannas are great! The staff, like all belicians that I've met, are... More

We just stayed at Cotton Tree Lodge for 4 nights and wished we could have stayed longer. We had the best time getting to know the staff and on the amazing excursions, part of the all inclusive package. The food was amazing, everyone was super friendly and accomodating, and the location is beautiful. Would highly recommend visiting Eladio's cacao farm,... More

My family (wife, three adults children and my son's wife) and I spent a fantastic week at the Cotton Tree Lodge in mid-January. The weather was perfect--not too hot or cold--and it only rained toward the end of the week. January is a transition month from wet to dry. The amount of rain you can expect is dramatically high in... More

The Cotton Tree Lodge is one of the most unique vacation experiences I've had. The facility and it's surroundings are beautiful, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful, and the food and drinks were always excellent. I highly recommend opting for the all-inclusive package, which includes all meals, non-alcoholic drinks and one tour per person per day. The money you'll... More

Stayed for four nights and participated in three tours. 1 - Mayan ruins, 2 -the tortilla making with kayak trip back to the lodge and 3 - the cave swim. The service was great, guests were all nice and we really enjoyed the beautiful grounds, river and animal life. They have knowledgeable and interesting guides for the day trips that... More

We stayed in December '11. Reception greeting and service set up negative vibes - and she didn't improve. Bar and food service was more friendly. Food was ok, but on an all inclusive deal they charge more for extras like sausages at breakfast...which leaves a bad taste... Setting and accommodation is great (quite jungly but tame enough) - lovely rooms,... More

We'd like to thank these guests for taking the time review their stay at Cotton Tree. I was very sorry to hear about the sub-par reception that they received. At the time of this review's posting, our management team had already recognized that there was a problem with some of our staff. The management has been working with the relevant... More

My husband and I just got back from our Cotton Tree Lodge vacation. We stayed from November 14 - 18. This place is summed up in one word . . . Amazing!! We opted for the all inclusive package, which in my opinion is the only way to go. The cabanas were beautiful, clean, and private. The fact that you... More

My wife and I went here to round out our Belize vacation after a week of diving. Having booked it I was about 80% prepared for the place but my wife even after a few discussions in the end was only 50% ready. The place is located in an amazing setting. The staff are all wonderful and truly helpful. The... More

First of all, I want to thank these guests for taking a chance with us and trying a hotel experience that was a little out of their comfort zone. We love being able to share the jungle of Belize with travelers from all over the world who come to us with a variety of backgrounds, experiences, and expectations. We are... More
