The Lodge at Chaa Creek

Adventure Centre, Rainforest Reserve, and Spa 
The Belize pioneer in natural history travel has been a premier destination for Caribbean and Central American adventures since 1981. The 340 acre nature reserve on the Macal River hosts an internationally recognized Natural History Centre, Butterfly Farm, miles of trails for walking, birding, mountain biking, or horseback riding, a fleet of canoes, exquisite spa, conference centre, adventure tours, and access to Belize's richest Maya archeological sites. Some 250 species of birds have been sighted within the reserve. Chaa Creek's Cottages are set in lush tropical gardens nestled along the riverside in the foothills of the Maya Mountains of Western Belize. The cottage compound, within the Chaa Creek Nature Reserve, provides a perfect compromise between comfort and a true wilderness experience. Each palm-thatched cottage has Mexican tiled floors, large mahogany beds, original artwork and private bathrooms with hot showers. Spacious sundeck verandahs allow guests to view wildlife and interact with nature. The spa, within easy walking distance of the lodge, will ensure that your body and spirit are in perfect shape to make the most of Belize's numerous attractions. The relaxed atmosphere at Chaa Creek stimulates you to unwind slowly to the rhythms of nature and enjoy your fascinating new environment in an elegant, yet simple style. Specialized therapists will help you choose from a variety of personalized treatments designed to enhance individual beauty while promoting health and a sense of well being. Additionally the Macal River Jungle Camp features 10 fully screened casitas, each with two comfortable beds and a private sheltered porch for quiet relaxation and peaceful views in an undisturbed jungle habitat. The verandah bar provides excellent relaxation before your delicious meal in the Chaa Creek restaurant.

Jaguar Paw

On the crystal waters of the Caves Branch River, amidst Belize’s pristine rain forest, and still only 75 minutes from the airport, Jaguar Paw blends adventure with style. Tours leave right from the lodge. Cave tubing is a must, but you'll also enjoy hiking, birding, caving, canoeing, zip lines and rapelling. Of course every tough day in the jungle ends with a relaxing tropical drink by the pool, a gourmet meal,  and a great night's sleep in the most comfortable and uniquely decorated jungle room you are ever likely to experience. Try Jaguar Paw once (it's a great last night's stop) and you will be back for a lot more.
