"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."
"It was a beautiful place, private and we felt safe. The Host Abner went above and beyond to help us with anything we needed. I wish we had stayed longer!"
"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."
"The whole place was amazing! The cabins were bare bones but clean and cute. We had a porch in the back right by the rainforest, but wished there had been comfy chairs to sit on instead of a small, hard bench. The bathrooms were clean with some interesting insect life to observe while sitting there. Showers were hot and good pressure.
The Toucan Cafe up front was superb - we ate every meal there. There is comfortable indoor and outdoor seating. Fridge and coffee maker are available for guests. There is also a biology-oriented library that also had some interesting travel guides for Belize, a gift shop, and a lab where the researchers work. The staff was super helpful with all the questions we had.
The grounds are large, with orchards containing a variety of fruit trees, and there are some nice hiking trails. One goes to a "swimming hole" on a creek that is not deep enough to swim in but certainly wonderfully refreshing on a hot day.
We used the cabin as a base and only had to drive 20 minutes to the Inland Blue Hole and river kayaking, and 15 minutes to Billy Barquedier National Park where there is a short hike to a waterfall. There are several restaurants nearby on the Hummingbird Hwy, as well as an ice cream shop."
