Highly recommended
Fantastic. An oasis of luxury in a tropical forest. The grounds are amazing - like staying in a botanical garden. Staff was very friendly and helpful. All meals at the on-site restaurant were excellent. Pool is fantastic. Only drawback is no air conditioning. It does cool off just a little by late at night, but the humidity is real. During the day, jumping in the pool is a great way to cool off. Well located for day excursions to nearby Mayan ruins including Xunantunich and the must-do ATM cave.

Very well run, comfortable jungle lodge. Beautiful property, and accomodations.Very friendly staff, terrific bar and breakfast. Lunch/Dinner food isn't very appetizing and requires improvement and refinement given the incredible access to fresh ingredients. It was disappointing, and even moreso compared to how excellent everything else was. Unfortunately, due to the remoteness, we had to eat there.it was our only option.

The property is amazing; the food is excellent. Everyone is superfriendly. The beds were mildewed and no amount oc changing sheets or disinfectant could change this. Onsite guides were mixed - some were excellent; others were average. There si a lot to do right n the property , and the property os beautiful. Not impressed by their lack of concern tot he mildew issue. Yes, they tried to correct it but never followed up to make sure we were ok (which we were not) - we were going to extend our stay but decided not to.

Worth every penny!!! Stay here.
From the second we arrived to even after we left, Chaa Creek exceeded all expectations and had the best service of any place we’ve traveled. The staff is SO attentive and thinks of things before you do. We arrived to fresh sorrel drink and then we got all our tours (Tikal and ATM Cave day trips, horseback riding to organic farm, sunset canoeing, birdwatching, medicinal trail hike and more) settled for rates better than the other hotels in the area. We stayed at a nearby hotel on our last night in San Ignacio bcs Chaa was booked and they even arranged flights for us and picked us up from that hotel to drive us to the airport, even though we were staying elsewhere! At dinner in the evenings, they’d find us to make sure we knew the time and info of the next day’s tours. We HIGHLY recommend this place, great for families and couples alike. Worth every single penny. Food was fantastic and accommodations were beautiful, too. Woke up to toucans and howler monkeys and started our day in a hammock. We recommend taking a small plane to get here via Tropic Air, the airstrip is so close and it’s beautiful to see the country from the sky. Thank you to all the staff who made this experience exceptional, we will be telling our stories of Chaa Creek for years to come.

Magical Place!
A great experience at a really fantastic resort. It's a beautiful place, full of amazing things to do, from the river canoeing and innertubing, to hiking, to cave tubing, to Mayan ruins, to our favorite - horseback riding. It's a bucket-list kind of place, in our family's opinion, and we will be going back!
