蓋亞河畔旅舍(Gaia Riverlodge)

We spent three days at Gaia, a beautiful, small lodge nestled in the hills above San Ignacio. The room was beautiful and looked out over the waterfalls, the sounds of which lulled us to sleep. Dinner and drinks in the main lodge were excellent. We also went on an Intro to Birding tour in the morning, saw toucans and other birds and went on the tour of the garden which supplies fruits and veg to Gaia and to its sister resort in San Pedro. You can hike along the nature paths and walk down to the waterfall and chill out there (and take the funicular back up!). I was a bit worried that we were too far out of San Ignacio for first time visitors who were going to be out and about doing things like the ATM cave tour and visiting ruins, but the road is now almost entirely paved (only the last 10 mins are off road, and that section is graded). Gaia is better suited to those who want a few days in a beautiful luxury setting away from it all. But with our own rental car, we had the best of both worlds and left feeling refreshed by the greenery and water, the beauty of Gaia, and uniformly fantastic people who work there.

Great property, exceptional staff in every position, great food and convenient location for area day trips. We would not hesitate to stay here again. Five stars

We love the individual “Casita” arrangement - and so many neat locations around the property, yet, everything is so convenient! The staff is unmatched with their friendliness, willingness to educate and inform us/any to the area, the culture, the country and their experiences. There was not one employee we encountered or had interaction with that was not first class! We will return and be sure to recommend to others, friends and family!

Even more beautiful in person than in the pictures. Was in another lodge in 2019 and this place is awesome. Only issue is that tours aren’t actually as advertise. Ours had beer included, but we had to pay them. Staff is amazing, our Guide Rick was very knowledgeable and friendly. We even had our private guide(Koko the resort dog) bring us to Big Rock falls( a must see if you can). I would recommend to anyone thinking of visiting this part of the country.

Perfect location with a great view, amazing staff, the only negative thing ist that the food at the restaurant is a little to expensive.

The lodge was really nice with lots of atmosphere and lush gardens. The best was a view of waterfalls from our cabana and you could hear them too. Very soothing. Also, could take a small funicular down to beach area where you could swim amongst the waterfalls. The lodge would even bring you lunch and drinks. The staff and tour guides were incredibly knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. The food was excellent too! Highly recommend! Very satisfied!

Stunning views and awesome staff.. Food was amazing.. We will be back.

This is an amazing breathtaking property. The views, vibe, & accommodations beautiful, & the entire staff wonderful. Private, secluded, beauty all around. Nature trails, exploring. Coco the dog! A surprise magick show by one of the team. (Vegas needs to watch out for Chris!) It took me this long to write the review, because im still mourning leaving. Literally broke my heart to go. The restaurant lovely, food great. We barely left premises, didn't want to. The jungle felt like home, like paradise. The Government tourism board needs to focus on these secluded jungle properties, not just the beach area! Unlimited potential for nature lovers seeking privacy. And we are hospitality veterans, working in hotels 30 years. Very critical eye! The owner and his son chose a great property & location, & their vision translated and was magical for us. Absolute magic, & we are so grateful. To the staff as well, each one. We will be back, hopefully sooner than later. Thank you Belize, thank you Gaia. Thank you ******* for making it more affordable for us hospitality veterans. Was a dream come true.

I cannot recommend Gaia highly enough. Beautiful location, welcoming staff, easy to book tours, private rooms, and excellent food.
