Top Hotels Near Crooked Tree Wildlife Sanctuary in

"The place is beautiful cabins located by the ocean and by the river. We saw dolphins one morning! There is a driver that took us to couple of places and picked us up for a fee. The food is a little expensive. But overall it was a good choice to stay."

"Im giving 5 stars because there was a smart TV in the room, and the beds were extremely comfortable. The view of the ocean from the room was nice, the staff were all very friendly and accommodating, the casino is big with many machines and table games, the free breakfast buffet was good but could have more variety, taxis come every few minutes out front for easy transportation, the room had working air conditioning and hot water, and the price for the rooms are reasonable. Yes the rooms are a little outdated, the tub/shower filled with water and took an hour to go down, if you hear a loud buzzing its probably the phone so just unplug it, there are not many dining options around except the hotel or the pizza place next door (which is great), if you want to walk to the water taxi its about 20 minutes, theres no beach or any swimming in the ocean but there is a nice big pool. Dont let the bad reviews ruin a good lodging option. I would stay here again."

"Nice and clean"

"The owner Kathy was awesome. Very helpful. Help me straighten out my reservation. Negotiate your taxi fee in advance. Several of us stayed there and thought that $15 US a person from the airport to the location was steep. Otherwise my stay was terrific!"

"This was our second time staying at Abezza, but it won't be our last! The first time we only stayed a single night, as we were driving around the country ourselves. We were a little unsure of what we would be arriving at, as it's a bit off the beaten path(it's not like you'll wander onto the property off the street in Belize City). It's about an hour drive; very scenic! Our second time we stayed a few nights as a parents getaway, and got to actually enjoy the different pools. We had a hot tub in our room which was very awesome! The food was delicious, the staff were always courteous, and we adore Mel & her family. They're very welcoming and down to earth. The rooms we had were clean, and we didn't experience any issue. I'd highly recommend Abezza (formerly Belize Boutique Resort & Spa) to anyone looking for a relaxing time in nature. My only recommendation would be, try to stay for around 5 nights. You'll have time to do some exploring, but also make sure you aren't off property all day every day because it's so nice to relax doing nothing but enjoying the environment! Can't wait til we return. One thing, make sure you write down their address because Belize immigration will want to know where you're staying at. Apparently it's a true hidden gem because the person we got didn't know what "Abezza, the resort in Maskall" was. We simply showed him the booking info and he made some note and that was that. "

"The Black Orchid is a beautiful property. The staff was amazing and the grounds stunning. Unfortunately, we were only there for one night, but we enjoyed the pool, grounds, and hearing the howler monkeys was an unexpected treat. "

"Great stay"
