"The staff were friendly, welcoming, and professional. The villa was beautiful and kept clean and up-to-date. Everything in the unit worked. The food was delicious albeit different from standard fair.
The horseback riding tour was the best value for the money at the resort for things to do.
The only thing I had trouble finding a chair that was comfortable the living room furniture was pretty, but very hard to sit on. While the food was delicious, the portion sizes for the prices were on the high side. The Seafood pasta did not come with any pasta and only a few pieces of seafood. A bottle of Heineken for $11 was the highest I have paid for one at any resort in Belize even on the Cayes."
"Our stay at Jaguar Creek in Belize was absolutely exceptional. The property is beautifully nestled in the heart of lush tropical jungle, creating a peaceful and immersive experience surrounded by nature. One of the highlights was the crystal-clear river that runs through the property, where we enjoyed relaxing tubing right from the resort.
The staff made our stay even more memorable. Everyone—from the front desk to the full-service dining and bar team—was warm, attentive, and genuinely helpful. The food and drinks were excellent, and the hospitality made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived.
The location is perfect for exploring Belize's incredible natural beauty. It's conveniently close to Belmopan and Cayo, with easy access to attractions like the Blue Hole National Park. There are countless opportunities for hiking, kayaking, tubing, and other outdoor adventures, making it an ideal destination for both relaxation and exploration.
If you're looking for a place that combines stunning jungle scenery, exceptional service, and easy access to some of Belize's best adventures, Jaguar Creek is a fantastic choice. We can't wait to return."
"Perfect stay for 4 travellers for 2 nights. Wasn’t large or fancy but suited our needs for the short stay, especially when we spent the day exploring and didn’t need to stay in the room. The owner/manager was absolutely helpful."
"We enjoyed our stay at this unique property. We chose the cabanas which were so different than any other room we stayed in before (but a bit buggy). The pool was great and refreshing! It is convenient to have dinner at the hotel especially on your arrival day."
Amazing Jungle Tree House right over the river with bikes and canoe
10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Howler House was just as we imagined it could be. The hosts were absolutely amazing and quick with responses. Shanna picked us up from the water taxi, arranged our excursions, and was so helpful with any questions we had about the area. Kenny was there daily cleaning the pool or the yard. They both were so easy to talk to and really enjoyed spending time with them. The monkeys were all around and there was 2 babies that were very curious and came quite close. A wonderful experience! Waking up to all the birds singing was a great way to start the day, can’t be beat. The pool was very nice to cool down in since there was no a/c in the house but there were many fans that kept the air moving. I loved staying there and would not hesitate to stay there again."
"If you are looking for the jungle experience than this is the place for you. We were greeted by the local troop of Howler monkeys on arrival. Beautiful house right on the river. Locals had been seeing Manitee in the river near the house. Kenny and Shanna were great. We are already planning a return trip. "
