About the Hotel

Characterized by the exoticism of the Caribbean and the mystery of Mayan culture, Belize is a land devoted to the "awes" of nature. As you awaken to new discoveries in this repository of the world's only refuge dedicated to the preservation of the jaguar, the howler monkey and the jabiru stork, guests are sure to acquire a new appreciation of wildlife and adventure. Where waterfalls drop into granite pools lined with tiger ferns, while parrots roost in the palmettos, Blancaneaux Lodge rises majestically out of the jungles. On encountering its radiant tropical beauty, Francis Ford Coppola declared it "the paradise hideaway I was looking for." His personal vision for the lodge was one of rustic comfort in harmony with the surroundings. Its elevated villas feature soaring hardwood and hand-woven thatch ceilings, furnishings crafted of local mahogany, and luxurious tiled baths that offers view of the jungle sky. An extensive array of robust activities that include canoeing, hiking, touring and more complete this picture of paradise. Envision yourself gently rocking in a hammock beneath the shade of coconut palms, while the Caribbean unfolds against a white sand beach.

Relaxation and stunning beauty in Belize

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Where do I start and how can this end? Turtle Inn provided a spectacular experience for us from top to bottom. The property and the grounds are beyond beautiful, and we hardly saw the quiet and immaculate upkeep while we were there. The place is SO peaceful and rejuvenating! The staff is universally friendly and welcoming and the meals were great. Breakfast options are plentiful and exceptionally delicious. The complimentary continental breakfast is outstanding and generous, but try the chilaquiles and the huevos rancheros, too! We took a boat trip to Coral Caye while were were there, and I recommend that highly. We snorkeled, kayaked, went out on the stand up paddle board, and ate and drank plenty! It was a delightful day spent on your own private island, and the boat crew and island staff waited on us hand and foot. A BIG thanks to then entire staff at The Turtle In for making this vacation so special. We had so much fun that we hated to leave!

AWESOME EXPERIENCE

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

Everything was absolutely wonderful from the accommodations, to the staff, the food, the location….My husbands’s reaction upon stepping into our cabana was “Wow, I’ll come back here anytime” and he doesn’t even like the beach! The private courtyard with the outdoor shower with yummy organic toiletries was one of our favorite features. All of the meals were great and we were happy that we had chosen to do a package so that everything was prepaid. We especially enjoyed the freshly prepared lunch on the gorgeous private island during our snorkeling excursion. Turtle Inn has definitely raised the bar for all our future travels!

Not only was the scenery beautiful, but the atmosphere the staff and team members maintained was the most impeccable and welcoming I have ever experienced anywhere! We felt like everyone knew us and cared about us. Everyone checked in on us and stopped us anytime to make our days feel special. Staff members literally stopped what they were doing to help us and give us tours (shout out to Marvin and Sergio). Our excursions and food incorporated local people and local culture (shout out to Eric/Rico's sunset cruise). The wine tasting was both educational and fun (shout out to Oscar). And all team members made the dining and sleeping arrangements top not h (shout out Meredith, Anthony, Jonathan). This is a full service place that allows you to be either relaxed and loose or busy and captivated. Also, the spa, omg Sindy and Jum were so thorough that everyone in our group went back several times. Also, thank you to every staff member who I did not personally name but you did personally move me to come back next year! Martin - you got a great crew! Also, check out the producer on site making great songs inspired by this gem.

So if u want white sands and turquoise water this is not your place If you want a beachfront air conditioned cabana this is not your place (only the back rooms have a/c and not many of them) If you want to snorkel close by this is not your place The people are very nice but it’s a hell of a long way from the main airport There are much better properties

Amazing few days on the beach!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 months ago

We loved our 4 night stay at the Turtle Inn. The location is beautiful, the staff very kind and welcoming and the hotel has a lot of charm. We stayed in a garden view cabana (with AC, which was a plus) and a beach front cabana which had an amazing view on the sea and fresh breeze at night. They were both very nicely decorated and the outdoor bathroom was really a pleasurable experience. The restaurants are all very good, the grill is a great dinner experience with your feet in the sand, the pizzeria really excellent and the laughing fish bar was our must go every night for a drink. Turtle Inn really makes you feel at home with caring people around.
