Guest Reviews
- virginialadyoyster (10/5): Total serenity for a stay in the jungle! - Gorgeous property, friendly staff, and amazing rooms! Dining was fun and the team were always relaxed and such a joy to talk to. Bedding linens and mattress were top notch — this is always big for me as a traveler. The Botanic Gardens were an amazing experience next door. Definitely do it guided by their team, it’s an amazing morning with a coffee. Highly recommend the new tree houses that have just been built (if you get the chance to ask). The privacy for couples was great! PS Rita and Henry were awesome 👏
- bilotta2 (10/5): See above. - Fabulous service. Great food. Relaxing environment. Jungle environment. Howler monkeys, many species of birds singing, entertaining kinkajous eating bananas while we dined. Hoped to return.
- LindaImperial (10/5): An Unbelievable Treehouse Stay - We had an unbelievable jungle (complete with atmosphere) treehouse to stay in, king sized bed, walk in rain shower, large soaking tub and it was very quiet and private (remote even). This resort was so wonderful, clean, well kept, and with many amenities. We wish that we had been able to stay another night just to enjoy the spa, the pool, the beach, and the hiking. The onsite restaurant was top notch with a bar and good service.
- Travelingmomof2boys (10/5): This place is like a dream! - This place is like a dream. We stayed from Wednesday to Sunday and had a perfect amount of time to see all the things we wanted to see. Brittany, at the front desk, a bright light and always has a smile for all the guests. Even at 6 AM! The treehouse rooms are absolutely amazing! I was shocked to find that you could barely hear the jungle noises if you close all the doors at night so no worries about noise or privacy but if you want to hear everything, you can. And it is amazing!! We saw coatimundi, agouti, toucans and even howler monkeys! We did not do all inclusive and I have to admit that the two meals we ate there were not our favorites but the restaurant itself is stunning and they feed the toucans each morning. The beach is wonderful and we took advantage of the tubing and canoes every day. My boys may or may not have jumped from the huge rocks on the other side. (Not something I think the resort would want you to do but they loved it) We also did the night hike and got to see lots of creatures I would not have even known were there! This is a very special place! Highly recommend!
- CassieHNSN (10/5): Adult Summer Camp! - Beautiful property with so much to do. It feels like summer camp! We went tubing (so fun) and the night hike was very cool. The rooms and staff are the best and you really do hear the sweet songs of nature all day and night. They’re so accommodating and encourage the amenities like marshmallows around the fire on the beach! See.. summer camp! One flag is that it’s not the most accessible place, so if you have trouble with stairs you may not get as much out of it, but will still find your thing. Maysin is super fun at dinner. You’ll see a kinkajou. Buy the all inclusive package if you can, it’s worth it if you have breakfast and dinner. Book this place! You won’t regret it!
- fredwP458RA (10/5): Fabulous jungle oasis, delicious foods, amazing tours, and the kindest staff. Don’t miss this beautiful spot in Belize! - A vacation to remember! Take in all the beauty of the Belizean jungle.
- samanthalR2651SO (10/5): One of the Best Stays! - My partner and I had an amazing time at Sweet Songs. From the moment you step outside of the airport, you can be greeted by a friendly face ready to take you on the start of your adventure. Once you arrive, you are welcomed with a cocktail and a quick tour of the facility. The staff was so kind, and we felt like family by the time our stay was over (even getting hugs from Rita!) They make a point to learn everyone’s names and love sharing stories and personal recommendations. The lodge is centered in the jungle and steps from a beautiful river. We stayed in a Treehouse room overlooking the river. The view and the soft breeze made lying in the massive hammock an experience in itself. The massive windows in the bedroom further immersed you in the jungle. We opted not to close the curtains at all so we could follow nature's patterns. Although be prepared to be awakened by occasional howler monkeys and talkative toucans! Highly recommend the on-site river tubing and exciting night walk tour- where you may see foxes, owls, monkeys, and critters. You are never left hungry, and the food was wonderful. Most of the food is locally sourced, and you can immediately taste the quality of the ingredients. The multiple bars have an expansive list of custom cocktails in addition to classic options. Highly recommend doing an all-inclusive package! The team makes it easy to book activities and handle all the transportation for you. We did the ATM and Xunantunich tour. The tour guides are not only highly knowledgeable but also have a great sense of humor. The ATM is not for the faint of heart, but it is an absolute must for those who love adventure and have a passion for exploration. Overall, it was very clean, and the staff made our vacation truly relaxing!! The only bad part about the experience was that it wasn’t longer! Truly worth the price!!
- T7024YHbrianj (10/5): A little taste of jungle paradise - My wife and I visited here for our honeymoon. I must say, I was expecting less accommodations and more seclusion. Sweet Songs delivered both a very accommodating staff from food service to bar, to the spa and tour guides, but we also were able to feel secluded to the world up in the jungle. The rooms were well appointed and really well positioned for privacy and comfort. We hope to be back and do more exploring of this beautiful, friendly country!
- Q4218MQrobs (10/5): Exceptional experience - From pre-arrival communications and check in with Esmeralda, through our entire stay to final check out, Sweet Songs far exceeded our expectations. Their level of service and genuine care made our stay a true pleasure. Every interaction was warm, friendly and informative. Food was phenomenal. Knowledge of the local foods and drink was happily shared. Mason, Ragner, Monica, Henry (and the entire team) provided a great experience at every meal. Thanks Mason for the tips on local rum! Tour guides also went above and beyond to share their knowledge of the local Mayan history. Thoroughly enjoyed our day trips to Caracol, ATM caves and Tikal. We learned allot and enjoyed every minute. We will be back!
- jrseygrl17 (10/5): Jungle experience in the perfect environment - I have been looking forward to our stay at Sweet Songs, imagining the sounds of birds in the jungle and mixing relaxation with adventure. This place far exceeded my expectations because I didn’t factor in the excellent, friendly and informative staff. We don’t make many repeat trips, but this is a place we would enjoy returning to.
- voet_klm (10/5): An exceptional Belizean hideaway - This was our first trip to the Belize jungle and Sweet Songs was the perfect place for us. Exceptionally well maintained and the staff are very friendly and warm . Our cabin had a view over the jungle - thick mist in morning burns off rapidly. Bird songs all day and after dark, Star filled sky with untold insect noises and howler monkey calls. In addition to a nice pool for afternoon cooldowns, we also enjoyed the large soaker tub on the veranda. Totally relaxing to lie in a hot tub in the dark surrounded by sounds of the night! Food and beverage service is very good and includes a vegetarian option. Menu is not enormous but offers enough variety ( at least for us!). Tours can be arranged from the front desk. Our driver/guide on the Barton Creek cave tour was knowledgeable as well as being an expert driver on the rough back country roads. He also led us on a birding expedition on the property. His knowledge of local bird life is encyclopedic. All in all, our stay at Sweet Songs was a fantastic way to start our Belizean vacation.
- T7607XDjosephg (10/5): An Unforgettable Jungle Ride — Tiro is a Treasure - If you do one thing at Sweet Song Jungle Lodge, make it this horseback ride. My 8-year-old daughter and I spent 2.5 hours covering 9 kilometers of jungle trail on our horses Comanche and Miss D, and it was the highlight of our entire trip. Our guide Tiro is exceptional. He doesn't just lead you through the trees — he brings the jungle to life. His knowledge of local plants and their traditional and medicinal uses in Mayan culture is fascinating, and he weaves in mythology and local stories throughout the ride. My daughter is an experienced young rider and she was just as captivated by his storytelling as she was by being on horseback. The wildlife encounters were remarkable. We spotted a deer, three coatimundis, a wild turkey, and a wonderful variety of birds including toucans. Tiro knew exactly where to slow down and what to look for. The high point of the ride was when Tiro led us to his special viewpoint where the Xunantunich Mayan Ruins were visible in the distance. On horseback, deep in the jungle, looking out toward an ancient Mayan site — it's a moment we won't forget. The ride ran the full 2.5 hours as advertised. Tiro was patient and great with my daughter throughout. Highly recommended for families.
- matthewo358 (10/5): Amazing hotel and fanatic experience - Amazing time! Check out the ATM caves while here
- B5825MXrebeccad (10/5): Exceeded all expectations! - We stayed at Sweet Songs with 2 families of 4 (kids ages 6-10) and had a wonderful time. From the moment we arrived, we were immediately relaxed. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are basic, but clean and comfortable. The grounds are absolutely stunning. The food and drinks were all wonderful. Tubing on the river and roasting marshmallows under the stars. But the highlight of our stay was horseback riding! I honestly had very low expectations and booked it just to have something to do with the kids, but was blown away. The property surrounding the lodge is gorgeous and our guide was great. Couldn't have asked for a more enjoyable afternoon. Overall - I just wish we had planned to stay longer and do more of the activities. Great home base to explore the Cayo district!!
- natebH2770UU (10/5): Family trip to Sweet Songs - Excellent personalised experience. ziplining and cave tubing were great. They set up a bonfire with marshmallows for the kiddos and lime-aid and rum for the adults. highly recommend.
- R5751QQelizabeths (10/5): Fabulous Valentine’s GetAway - This was our first time in Belize and Sweet Songs will be one of the reasons we come back! The property was absolutely beautiful and the entire staff was top notch! Super helpful and friendly! They took the time to get to know us straight away and called us by name for our entire stay! I’m sorry I may not spell names right, but want to acknowledge Abgill who welcomed us and helped us navigate some hiccups with excursions! He was warm and friendly and easily solved our issues. The staff at the bars and restaurant were equally wonderful - Henry @ poolside made the best frozen drinks ever, and was crazy creative with his fruit garnishes! He also had the best music selection and even ensured our best chances at viewing the Super Bowl!! Mason at the restaurant bar was equally wonderful and talented and shared many stories about local customs. Talking with him we felt like old friends! Rita and Yesenia in the restaurant took can of us like we were family! We never met the chefs but the meals that were prepared were outstanding! Housekeeping was exceptional as well! The floral and towel arrangements they left on our bed each day were unbelievable! The resort is very small so there were many times we felt like we were the only ones there! The property was beautifully tended to and there were birds everywhere! Hummingbirds and Toucans were daily visitors! This was such a relaxing comfortable location! We will absolutely be back!
- jsh06 (10/5): A Jungle Immersion at Sweet Songs surrounded by the most generous and kind staff - We loved our 9 days in Treehouse #19 surrounded by lush vegetation, immersed in sounds of the jungle and even our own very present iguana that lived in a tree just outside the treehouse. Meals were delicious and varied, staff couldn't have been more lovely. Many thanks to Rita, Yessy, Monica, Ragner, Maysin, Henry, Tiro our guide to many excursions. Try their basil martini, canoe in the Macall, visit the Botanic Garden, zipline, cave tube and check out the Belize zoo close to the airport. This was our second time in Belize and our first time at Sweet Songs.
- dvic2rias (10/5): Travel with style and comfort - This vacation set a new high bar for traveling. Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge is a totally sweet vacation. Their accommodations are first class. The staff are overly accommodating. You ask for it, you get it. I’ve never seen such staff treat you with such hospitality. The guide, Tiro, made our trip unbelievable. I couldn’t have done the things we did without his amazing assistance. He was kind, caring, knowledgeable, and beyond helpful. I have traveled all over the world and this staff is by far the best I have experienced. They’re not staff, their family. Only family treat you this well. my sincerest thanks to Sweet Songs, you made our vacation incredible.
- Traveler544824 (10/5): Amazing,and superb service. - Sweet Songs Jungle Resort is on this long, hilly and bumpy dirt road. It is an adventure just getting there. We arrived around 6 at night. We got our keys, our luggage was brought to our room and we settled into our room for a five night stay. Since it was dark we didn't get to see much of the grounds at first, but the path to the restaurant was beautiful. The resort is a short walk to the Botanic Gardens, a must visit. The restaurant was where all the socializing happened. Loved it. Every day you would tell the staff what time you wanted to sit for dinner, 6:30 or 7:45 ( I think those were the times) They had the menu on a chalkboard and you would choose your dinner. The food was always tasty 10/10. Our room was just a regular room., but clean. The bathroom is big, not fancy. The shower though was great. Good water pressure. We had a screened in porch, so was nice sitting out in the evening. I regretted not renting a treehouse room. They looked so cute. The only noise were the birds and howler monkeys. The pool at Sweet Songs is very nice and it was a great place to relax. The service is top notch and you are well cared for at Sweet Songs. You feel like one big family. We really enjoyed are stay at Sweet Songs and were sad to leave. This was our first experience in Belize and the people at Sweet Songs made it very memorable, especially the night walk we took with one of the staff.
- S5217OJjessieh (10/5): Great stay - My husband and I came for our belated honeymoon trip and stayed for 5 nights. We did all inclusive because we knew it would be pretty remote. Not sure if we fully got our moneys worth but it was nice not thinking about it. The food was pretty good, but we felt like the local food we had when we stayed in Hopkins was better. Drinks were yummy. The staff was really fantastic and friendly. Specifically we had great experiences with Jessie, Mason and Henry but they all were kind and helpful. The rooms were gorgeous and beds were very comfortable. I do wish they had more hot water because the bathtub on the porch wasn’t able to be filled fully hot. The shower was limited too. I would recommend this place to friends and family!!
- coria2026 (10/5): Unforgettable Treehouse Stay — Toucans, Jungle Magic, and Incredible Staff - We stayed at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge in one of the Signature Treehouses and absolutely loved every minute of our time there. The room was beautiful — exactly as pictured — and waking up surrounded by the jungle felt surreal in the best way. One of our favorite parts of the stay was the wildlife right on the property. We joined birdwatching on the grounds and saw toucans nearly every morning during breakfast — something we’ll never forget. We also really enjoyed exploring the on-site Belize Botanical Gardens and appreciated how easy the lodge made it to book excursions. We arranged tours to Tikal and Yaxha through the resort, and everything was seamless and well organized. It also meant a lot to learn how the lodge gives back to and supports the local community — that intentionality really added to the experience. Most of all, we have to shout out Jessie and Henry at the bar/restaurant. They made our stay incredibly special with their kindness, hospitality, and great conversation. We genuinely missed them when we moved on to the next stop of our trip — they were a highlight. If you’re looking for a unique jungle stay with incredible nature, thoughtful service, and memorable experiences, we can’t recommend Sweet Songs enough!
- 565sonjap (10/5): Great hosts, food, adventure, wildlife and scenery - We stayed at Sweet Songs for the first part of our visit to Belize before going to the sister resort on the coast to dive. We had a great stay with lots of good food, awesome wildlife, fun adventures and fantastic hosts. From the moment you arrive, your host team takes great care of you. The front desk will go above and beyond to work out your excursions. Selvin and Carlos were our guides for Xunantunich and Barton’s Creek cave canoeing. Mason at the pool bar was phenomenal and all the team made our stay exceptional.
- loriandberniem (10/5): Just WOW! - Just WOW! We enjoyed a short jungle stay at Sweet Songs after spending a week in Placencia. We wanted to visit Xunantunich and decided to split our time between the coast and the jungle, choosing Sweet Songs for our jungle experience—and it was the perfect choice. We were completely blown away by the beauty of the resort. Everything was spotless, the food was excellent, and the setting was absolutely stunning. We stayed in the Premier Treehouse, which was truly amazing. The swinging bed on the balcony was a favorite and made for the best nap ever! An unforgettable stay and a perfect complement to our time in Placencia. Highly recommend!
- BroadReachSailing (10/5): Exceptional Hospitality in a Magical Jungle Setting - Our stay at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge was absolutely wonderful. From the moment we arrived, the kindness and genuine hospitality of the staff made us feel welcomed and truly cared for. A special shout-out to Mason at the poolside—he was wonderful with drinks, easy conversation, and creating such a relaxed, joyful atmosphere. Shajira at the front desk was amazing—warm, attentive, and incredibly helpful, always greeting us with a smile and making everything feel effortless. The waitstaff and cooks were equally outstanding; we only wish we had everyone’s names because each person played a part in making our stay feel so personal and special. The food was incredible—beautifully prepared, flavorful, and deeply satisfying after days of jungle adventures. Every meal felt thoughtfully crafted and shared with care. The lodge itself is gorgeous—peaceful, comfortable, and seamlessly nestled into the jungle. We were very glad we packed for chilly weather, as we woke up to temperatures in the 50s. Our room stayed warm and cozy, though it could feel a bit chilly while eating—layers were perfect and worth packing. Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge is a truly special place—exceptional people, amazing food, and a stunning setting that invites you to slow down and savor every moment. We would happily return and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable jungle retreat.
- tay_k_0202 (10/5): Lovely lodge - What a beautiful gem of a resort! Very detail was well thought out and felt like true luxury in the jungle. We stayed in the signature treehouse which was a lovely room. The grounds of the resort are so lush and there is beauty every where you look. The food was amazing! The dinner menu changes nightly which adds a fun layer to the experience. Brittany, Jesse, Henry, and Monica were just a few of the employees we encountered and each was so warm and welcoming. We were celebrating my birthday on the trip and Monica made it feel like my birthday lasted more than one day the way she celebrated me each day!
- V6360XMsusans (10/5): Fabulous stay in the jungle - Fantastic stay at Sweet Songs Lovely location and lovely staff Shout out to Jessie, Henry, Brittany and Ragner for making our stay truly special at the bar and in the restaurant. Loved the bird watching while we ate. Special shout out to John for the impromptu tarantula night hunt!
- JimJ1926 (10/5): Excellent facilities and staff - We had an excellent day for five nights at Sweet songs. Staff and naturalist were top-notch and extremely helpful. The lodge is in a quiet andbeautiful regrown rainforest just above a river, with access, and beautiful grounds. There are many quality outings/activities offered through the lodge. We particularly love nearby Maya ruins, canoeing on the river, and the birdlife around the grounds. Pretty good food offered on site for everything you need.
- 218chelsieg (10/5): Love this place! - Absolutely phenomenal experience at sweet songs. The staff entirely made the experience, from the driver that picks you up at the airport to the service staff. This is the only place that I can remember every staff members name, they are phenomenal people and add to the jungle experience t evey turn.
- CND02 (10/5): Amazing jungle getaway! - Amazing jungle getaway! The three house rooms felt like being part of the canopy. The staff was amazing but Shakira went out of her way to try to accommodate us. Make us feel welcome letting them review three songs, and waking up to the sound of mini birds was a highlight. Don't miss the tubing on the Macal River or the hike to the botanical gardens—absolutely unforgettable.
- jaxsonl2026 (10/5): It was the best - It was so fun with the staff being amazing
- DudeM_14 (10/5): An excellent taste of pampered jungle living. - Sweet Songs Resort has manicured grounds with a jungle feel and delightful cabins they call treehouses. The pool is modern and excellent; with a bar where you can order food and drinks. The staff is very attentive and friendly. I particularly enjoyed the complimentary night walk where a staff member leads guests on a search for wildlife around the grounds.
- rachelsI8821OV (10/5): Unforgettable Jungle Escape with Incredible Service - We absolutely loved our stay at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge. The setting is beautiful and peaceful, tucked into the jungle along the river, and it immediately feels like a true getaway. The staff really made the experience special. Everyone was friendly, laid-back, and genuinely helpful. We didn’t want to do one of the standard tours, and instead of pushing a package, they worked with us to create a custom tour that fit exactly what we wanted. It felt very personal and easy. We stayed in one of the new signature treehouses, and they are amazing — stylish, comfortable, and truly unique. Just a small thing to note: there’s no AC in the bathroom, but it didn’t take away from the overall experience. We didn’t do the all-inclusive package, but still felt the prices were very fair for the quality of food and service. The daily happy hour at the pool was a great value and a fun way to relax at the end of the day. One of our favorite parts was spending time at the restaurant and watching the wildlife — seeing toucans and other birds right from our table was a highlight. Overall, it’s a relaxed, beautiful place with wonderful people. We felt well taken care of and would absolutely stay here again.
- emilyt811 (10/5): Excellent for Nature Lovers! - Sweet Songs Lodge is integrated into the rain forest, with treehouse rooms that put you amongst the tree canopy and birds. My husband and I stayed at the premier treehouse, with a large outdoor patio, swinging day bed, and outdoor tub. All encased in a screen so the critters can stay out. It's a bit like staying at a resort but with immersion into nature. We greatly enjoyed the resort amenities, including pool, hiking trails, tubes/canoes, night walks, and restaurant/bar. There's also the Belize Botanical Garden next to the property which you can wander around for $10 USD per person. The staff were all extremely friendly and will take the time to remember your name, get to know about your life, and help you plan out your day. To give an example of how exceptional they are, on our last 2 days, I was telling the bar staff and gardening staff that my goal was to see a howler monkey. Everyone gave me tips on where to go and at what time to spot them. They were cheering me on and wishing me luck! With everyone's help, I was able to find a family of howlers in the trees right off of the river trail behind the lodge. With being so integrated into nature, the lodge is secluded! It will usually cost extra for drivers and excursions to come out to the lodge (usually $10-15 USD more) since it is about 20 minutes up a dirt road from San Ignacio. There will be no other food or shopping options outside of the lodge. No worries though, the resort has a full kitchen and bar available with Carribbean themed drinks (think coconut, pineapple, rum, etc) and authentic Belizean menu. Stay here if you are a nature lover and want to escape from the bustle of city life! You won't regret it.
- tiffanydG3212VI (10/5): Lodges’ Choice and Amazing Staff - Our Sweet Songs stay has been seamless and so very special due to the staff’s care for us and making plans from transport to excursions quite easy. We have felt so taken care of our entire stay. Selvin deserves a special recognition for being our guide for zip lining and cave tubing. An unforgettable experience and because of his expertise and knowledge we saw a part of the cave other tourists rarely see. We left with an appreciation for Mayan culture and the Belizean natural landscape. Thank you also to each of the staff who helped our trip to Guatemala and escorted us across the border and made that so easy! Note to travelers if you choose Lodges Choice which we did, it means they can change your room during your stay. It wasn’t an issue for us.
- Passport30945717501 (10/5): Honeymooner Heaven! - We stayed here for our honeymoon and it was truly so special. We generally opt for excursions and adventure, but wanted to truly relax for this trip. This lodge has a ton of offerings for both. The infinity pool, trails, on the property, and riverside beach became a daily routine of ours. We stayed in a treehouse room and it was so cool! The swinging daybed was great for relaxing and just appreciating the biodiversity, and the beds were so comfortable. We opted for the all-inclusive package which we’d recommend. We didn’t need to worry about cost and were able to have local cocktails. The lodge food was amazing, especially the breakfast, and the nightly dinner menu had a different theme each night. Our favorites across the board were the belizean specialties — try their fry jacks! The ceviche was sooo fresh as were the fresh juices and fruits. All was delicious and the staff was so attentive. We did a private dinner and Rita took such care to decorate the table and it was just a lovely experience. Jessi, maysin, Monica, yesenina, Josiah, and one gentleman whose name we think began with a G — and the rest of the staff during our stay were kind and great at their jobs. The receptionists at the front as well as driver Carlos were so helpful too. We would highly recommend! Make sure you use bug spray, and if you are not a fan of the outdoors and want something a bit more high maintenance or are likely to be bothered by changes in weather, or things being a bit more relaxed, this likely isn’t for you. Our only recommendation for future travelers is if you order steak, ask for it more well done than your typical order. Everything else was perfect! We are excited to return and see more of beautiful Belize.
- J4962ALjoannas (10/5): Family trip - Very pretty property. The service was very good and staff were friendly and gracious. Our waiter Mayson was super attentive and knew all of our names. The food was very good. We enjoyed our three nights at Sweet Songs.
- GrandTour50146990163 (10/5): Authentic jungle experience with great people - If you are interested in an “authentic” jungle experience in a rustic/casual lodge then this is the place for you! We stayed in the Premier Treehouse room and loved it, particularly the outdoor suspended day-bed on the screened-in porch. The cleaning crew kept the suite immaculate. Overall the dining staff were friendly and down-to-earth, and the food was excellent. Our suite (#17) was at the bottom of a long set of stairs, which was daunting at first, but by the end of the trip we appreciated the exercise. We also highly recommend the tours as the guides were excellent. I want to give a special shout out to our birding guide, Selvin Cassasola, for his birding knowledge and photography skills. He captured some great photos for us while we were busy with our binoculars. We also appreciated his knowledge of Mayan history during our tour of Xunantunich. If you are interested in wildlife we also recommend visiting the iguana rehabilitation centre as well as the Belize Raptor Centre. Having said that, there is so much to see right at Sweet Songs, even from your seat in the outdoor dining area. Every morning some small toucans and other birds show up for a snack and every evening there is a Kinkajou that pops by to eat bananas.
- AmrKal (8/5): Beautifully located jungle resort with pricey meals and extras - Beautifully located jungle resort surrounded by lush greenery and abundant birdlife. We stayed in a spacious room that comfortably accommodated our family of four, with a cozy sitting area and a hammock that we really enjoyed. There’s plenty to see and do nearby, making it a great base for a 3–4 day stay. The pastoral views while driving in and out of the resort were lovely. As expected in a rainforest setting, there are quite a few bugs, so it’s best to apply insect repellent as soon as you arrive. If you’re driving, note that some of the access roads are uphill and bumpy, which can be a bit tricky. The property would benefit from a heated pool or hot tub. Also, if you plan to go river tubing, be prepared for a 15–20 minute walk through the forest to reach the starting point—wearing proper footwear is important, as walking barefoot was uncomfortable and we weren’t aware of the distance in advance. Cons: All meals are quite expensive, with dinner entrées priced around $25–28 USD. The spa experience was disappointing for the cost of $100 USD for a 60-minute massage felt overpriced. While the massage itself was good, the ambience was lacking, with no music and a cold, musty room, making it not worth the price. Excursions were pricey as well.
- Angry1026 (8/5): Great Place....needs to improve the dining options - A honest review... The good: We had the Two Bedroom Casita and it was great. We are a family of 4 and it gave us enough room and it had a lovely seating area with a great two-seater swing, The grounds are great. We spent one of our days just hanging by the pool and walking the grounds. But...one day there for hanging out is all you need. The rest of your time should be spent doing excursions. The staff are amazing. Incredibly friendly and welcoming. The place is very clean. It feels a bit damp but you are in the jungle, so you can't really avoid it. The dining area is beautiful, you get to eat with sounds and feels of the jungle all around you...also interesting birds all around. The bad: I hate to say it but the food options aren't great. Meals are incredibly expensive (shockingly expensive). The quality and sizes do not match the price points. Also, they aren't very accommodating to dietary restrictions. For example, my wife has dietary restrictions and we asked no to have mashed potatoes because they had butter... they said they would give her extra vegetables but her serving didn't have anything more than ours. I know it sounds nit-picky but the prices are so expensive, you would think they would have at least tried. Also, there aren't a ton of options. Meals are a B- at best. The excursions are also quite expensive and they don't offer anything personalised. Our family just wanted to do the cave tubing for a half-day and they said they didn't offer it. We ended up arranging it in town with a separate company who came to Sweet Songs and dropped us off. But you should know, they will charge extra to pick you up from the resorts because it is out of the town. Overall, it was a great experience but I do wish they have other meal options.
- GrandTour47895618696 (10/5): Phenomenal vacation experience - I am a pretty prolific traveler and I'd come back to this resort with no hesitation. The location is close to many attractions both in Belize and Guatemala, and there is plenty to do on the resort grounds too. They have working relationships with incredible tour guides and make booking tours so easy. The staff is friendly and helpful. The food and drinks are absolutely outstanding. I can't recommend this place enough. Oh, and my wife got to feed a kinkajou some pineapple.
- Pixelle22 (10/5): Everyone was very welcoming. Excellent staff! - Everyone was very welcoming. The staff was amazing and really went the extra mile to make our visit feel special. Thank you!
- ColteSO (10/5): The Jungle Treehouse of my Childhood Dreams - Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge is simply amazing. If you, like me, grew up envying the Swiss Family Robinson treehouse, this is the resort for you. Our large suite was suspended on stilts in a private garden area, at the landing on the stairs up to the room, turning to the left lead to a platfom-cum-breafast-nook with seating for two, and a stepladder up to a suspended Net platform allowing one to comfortably recline up in the foliage enjoying the melodious blackbirds and Ari Cari toucans, occasionally flocks of parrots heading up to the Pine forest Reserve. Each day there we took one of their tours, Visiting Caracol and Rio Frio with Carlos, and Pool on Waters and Big Rock Falls with Selvin who were expert guides, knowledgeable on the environment, geology, flora, fauna, history both ancient and recent. It was a delight having them show us around their homeland. Our stay coincided with an unseasonal cold front and was a bit drizzly, but we were always snug and comfortable in our accommodations, didn't get much use of the pool, but did attend the happy hour for local snacks and tropical drink specials. Dining at Sweet Songs is fantastic, the dining area is a covered platform suspended among the trees, an isthmus of luxury in the verdure of the jungle. The cuisine is a blend of Belizean and fusion cuisines, with full breakfast and lunch menus and a new selection of dishes each evening for dinner. I don't think anyone in our party (which has some picky eaters).was less than thrilled with a single meal! Guide John took us on a late night bird tour and delighted my wife with the many creepy-crawlies he was able to locate for her. On our last day, even though it was raining we finally took our chances on the river tubing! Which is a blast, an easy float down a lazy river to the bonfire beach, we went twice in our last hours before getting a ride back to the Airport. Definitely recommend Sweet Songs and their deluxe accommodations.
- kimjV4580AV (10/5): Perfect hotel for jungle experience - Wonderful lodge - love the treehouse room and easy access to a number of excursions and cultural experiences. Staff is very friendly
- Stephaniejlemon (10/5): Fantastic, above and beyond! - The people! Everyone from the pool bartender, Henery to Mayson at the diner service was amazing! The best of all was Rita! Her food recommendations on all the meals and wonderful banter as we were coming and going was above and beyond. She never let us go empty handed or leave with empty beers! Thank you and make sure to go on the night hike!
- GardenersDaughter (10/5): Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge - We loved every activity, meal, site, and staff person! Everyone was warm, thoughtful, and the guides were brilliant and fun! We enjoyed the trip to the ruins, the Barton Creek cave canoe excursion, the canoeing down the river to St Ignacio’s trip, the night hike, the early morning birdwatching, the horseback riding to sunset wine and cheese, etc etc! We saw over 30 species of exotic (to us!) birds and all sorts of stunning an surprising night creatures too. Sleeping in a treehouse was a special treat for us all, and the chef and dinner menu variety each night blew us away. Don’t pass over this incredible jungle gem!
- monicahX1699US (10/5): Unforgettable Jungle Escape with Exceptional Food and Service - Our stay at this jungle resort in Belize was absolutely incredible from start to finish! The setting itself is stunning — surrounded by lush greenery and the peaceful sounds of nature — but what truly made it exceptional was the level of care and attention from the staff. Everyone we met was warm, professional, and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The food was phenomenal — fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented every single meal. From local specialties to more familiar dishes, everything was thoughtfully prepared and delicious. The resort was spotless and extremely well-maintained, which is impressive given its remote jungle location. Every area, from the rooms to the dining space and pool, was clean and clearly cared for. We were also so impressed by how efficient and accommodating the staff were. Whether it was arranging excursions, adjusting plans, or helping with special requests, everything was handled quickly and with genuine kindness. If you’re looking for a peaceful, luxurious, and unforgettable jungle escape — with incredible food and hospitality — this Belize resort is perfection. Highly recommend!
- sandiu2023 (10/5): A unique and welcoming resort perched in the midst of a lush jungle. - This is a very special place both for the amazing jungle surrounding it, but also for the incredibly caring staff. We could not have been better taken care of by every staff member. A special treat was the bird viewing over breakfast in the morning along with the agoutis wandering through the grounds. Don’t miss this place!
- sarahwK8674TS (10/5): Amazing stay! - Sweet songs was absolutely amazing! The food was delicious, the staff were so friendly and accommodating, and the rooms were clean. They offer so many great activities that we spent a whole day just at the resort! Canoeing down the river was so fun, and we went on a night walk where we saw so many cool things- John was a great tour guide! I would highly recommend for anyone visiting San Ignacio!
- heathersN5588QK (10/5): Fabulous! - Fabulous stay at sweet songs. The resort and the excursions were amazing! Highly recommend. The tree house room was so beautiful!
- kennyc353 (10/5): Amazing 70th Birthday Trip at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge! - I brought my dad to Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge to celebrate his 70th birthday, and it was absolutely perfect. The staff made the whole trip feel special from start to finish — everyone was so friendly, genuine, and fun to be around. Huge thanks to Ragner, Monica, Maysen, Rita, and Esmeralda for taking such great care of us! The food was incredible (seriously, every meal was a hit) and the drinks were top-notch — the bartenders really know what they’re doing. We loved spending the days exploring all the adventure spots in western Belize and then coming back to relax poolside with a cold drink in hand. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like you’re part of something special — surrounded by nature but with all the comfort you could want. Sweet Songs was the perfect mix of adventure and relaxation, and my dad couldn’t stop smiling the whole trip. Can’t wait to come back! 🌴🍹
- O5023HWkevinr (10/5): Amazing. - Awesome, everything was great! Staff was lovely. The setting was magical and everything was perfect. The night hike was great.
- 971justj (10/5): 30th birthday trip - This place was absolutely amazing from the hospitality, cleanliness activities and excursions. Everything was super easy and the all-inclusive package made everything worth it.
- kathryncI3926IT (10/5): Peaceful Jungle Getaway - We spent part of our honeymoon at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge and loved our stay. The grounds are stunning, full of lush greenery and incredible wildlife, with plenty of trails and hidden spots to explore. One evening we asked about setting up a bonfire by the river, the staff went above and beyond. We ended up taking a spontaneous late night tour that turned into one of our favorite memories. Our excursions were amazing too. We visited Xunantunich and our guide was incredibly knowledgeable, bringing so much life and history to the experience. We also went to Excalibur, which was a lot of fun. We discovered my husband might have a small fear of heights! While many of the excursions are a bit of a drive from the resort, the friendly and informative drivers made the time fly by. A special shoutout to Maysin, who made sure every day was fun and that we had everything we needed. And Rita, who was always so sweet and welcoming during happy hour by the pool. Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge is a beautiful escape, peaceful, full of adventure and history.
- Curious31952467636 (10/5): Truly a Jungle Experience and the staff are excellent! They are all warm, welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. - My Fiancé and I purchased an all inclusive package for 5 nights with meals, non and alcohol beverages. We visited first week of off season which was just lovely. Quiet. We took several tours to Maya Ruins, Market, Chocolate Making, Iguana Sanctuary, Horse Back riding, Barton Creek Cave, etc. The Treehouse Restaurant and Bar is perfect. You feel like you are in the middle of the jungle. Get there at 6:15am to watch the birds enjoy the fresh fruit put out for them. The food is delicious and presentation superb! The umbrella drinks are to die for and the pool area is gorgeous. The property is well maintained and they are constantly working on. Be sure and visit Botanic Gardens right next to the property. Bring very comfortable shoes for walking/hiking. Lots of stairs and trails to river steep in many places. Now let me get to the staff. Esmeralde is wonderful at front desk. She is patient and very helpful with scheduling tours. We absolutely enjoyed our time in Treehouse for our meals/cocktails being served by Maysin, Rita, and Ragner and Henry/Yesenia at poolside Bar. Welcome Monica who had just started. Selvin and Carlos are entertaining and very knowledgeable tour guides and Trio for horseback riding their “Wrangler”. I could go on and on about the staff. We left feeling like they were friends/family. All are so personable, kind, funny, gracious, welcoming, helpful and courteous. The accommodations are very clean. Water and water bottles are provided. Who knows, this was on our bucket list since my fiancé have been to several locations in Central America but not to Belize. We may be back since so much more to do! We did stay in Belize City a few more nights to go over to Islands for snorkeling. Recommend to tie into this Jungle Trip.
- W5407ZZrogerm (10/5): Good value, great food, great staff - The immersive, mid-jungle setting, four-star cuisine and warm and friendly staff make this a real bucket-list destination. It's located near ruins, Mayan caves, rivers to canoe and endless opportunities to experience the country, which we did, from toucans and spider monkeys to horseback rides into the edge of the rainforest.
- A7456FVlucyp (10/5): 10/10 stay at Sweet Songs! - We had the best stay at Sweet Songs! What really stood out to us was the friendliness of all the staff we interacted with who went above and beyond and made sure that we had a great experience around the lodge and on activities. The lodge we stayed in was clean and spacious and there’s loads to do around the Sweet Songs grounds (amazing pool, tubing, canoeing, walks, beach) and the food was tasty. We went on two tours whilst staying, we would highly recommend the ATM tour as well as the nature horse ride (big shout out to Herminio who took us on the best horse trek). We also enjoyed the Night Walk, Botanical Gardens and Campfire. Thanks again to everyone at Sweet Songs, we’d highly recommend picking to stay here!
- Mary (10/5): - Amazing stay where the jungle surrounds you. The wildlife is incredible. Treehouse 12 is a wonderful choice. You can even go up and lay in the tree in your own private hammock. The pool is beautiful and Henry took great care of us making delicious drinks. Highly recommend this property.
- S5715JWpatrickt (10/5): Unique treehouse experience - What a lovely resort. The treehouse accommodations were superb very private and so peaceful. Staff was great as was the food. Great spot for a group of friends or a couple looking for a peaceful and serene escape!
- Anastasia (10/5): - Absolutely gorgeous place. Highly recommend.
- Katie (10/5): - We loved Sweet Songs! The hospitality was amazing. Esmerelda, Henry, Ragner & Yesenia took such great care of us. The food was delicious and the room was very comfortable and clean. Not to mention the beautiful location! Will definitely recommend to friends and family.
- 400christib (10/5): Sweet Songs has so much to offer! - This was my 2nd trip to Sweet Songs and again I loved it. Ragner, Maison and Alexander took great care of us at the restaurant while we enjoyed wonderful meals. Henry kept our beverages flowing next to the beautiful pool and Selvin gave us an incredible tour of the local Maya ruins at Xunantunich. It was obvious the history is something he was passionate about. And, if you're physically up to it make sure you add ATM cave to your excursion list. If that's a little too physical (or even if it is not) the Barton's Creek cave we explored with Carlos is a beautiful day half day tour. Oh, and the evening fire on the beach next to the river (that we enjoyed floating one afternoon) was a great way to end one of our days at this amazing jungle lodge!
- mel-issaCAD (10/5): Jungle Escape - We had such a wonderful stay at Sweet Songs Jungle Resort! The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always going out of their way to make sure we felt comfortable and cared for. The food was absolutely delicious…fresh and flavourful! The property itself is stunning and so peaceful, tucked away in the jungle with the perfect balance of nature and relaxation. It felt like a true escape. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene getaway with amazing hospitality!
- Melissa (10/5): - We had such a wonderful stay at Sweet Songs Jungle Resort! The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, always going out of their way to make sure we felt comfortable and cared for. The food was absolutely delicious…fresh and flavourful! The property itself is stunning and so peaceful, tucked away in the jungle with the perfect balance of nature and relaxation. It felt like a true escape. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene getaway with amazing hospitality!
- chentelleh2025 (10/5): 1 week stay - The lodge was absolutely beautiful, the staff was wonderful, rooms were spotless and well maintained and the excursions were well organized and operated for maximum enjoyment. Absolutely stay here! You will love it!
- Global01009167691 (10/5): Felt like family, can’t wait to return. - Henry was the best bartender I’ve met in my entire life. His professionalism, friendliness, work ethic, creativity. And the overall experience he gave the Treenet Willy’s team was unmatched. Sweet Songs has been a place that will stay in my heart forever. The staff was out of this world with the experience they give you. Everyone here truly feels like family and It has provided one of the greatest weeks of my life. Highly recommend visiting this cute resort tucked away in the Belizean Jungle.
- U1132TDjamesd (10/5): Fantastic stay - The staff were so friendly and willing to assist with anything. The horse riding was a fabulous adventure into the jungle with a very knowledgeable and lovely guide wanting us to see and experience all the country had to offer.
- meganlO1166SQ (10/5): An unforgettable Jungle Vacation - Our stay at Sweet Songs Lodge was absolutely amazing. This eco-friendly lodge is tucked back in the jungle offering an immersive jungle experience. The entire staff was incredible, making our experience so enjoyable. Henry and Alex made up the most delicious drinks, with the most amazing garnishes ( one even looked like a dolphin). The restaurant team Rita, Yessenia, and Maysin were so friendly. The food was outstanding, made with local fresh ingredients making each meal so fresh and flavorful. Our tour guide, Selvin, made our visit to Xanantunich unforgettable. His knowledge of Belize's history and culture kept us engaged during our drives to and from the airport. Tiro was equally fantastic during our horseback ride to Xananrunich. His energy and expertise about the medicinal properties of the local plants added a unique layer to the experience. The premier treehouse we stayed in was beautiful and provided a wonderful sense of privacy. Our premier treehouse was a haven, featuring an incredibly comfortable bed, a stunning outdoor screened-in patio, and an outdoor tub. Thankfully, the treehouse had AC to make the jungle heat and humidity bearable. We did encounter a minor infestation of bullet ants but the team was quick to respond, resolving the issue as soon as it was brought to their attention. There’s so much they offer to do at the lodge! We enjoyed everything from night hikes and canoeing to San Ignacio, to river tubing and bonfires on the little beach down by the river. Our offsite excursion to the ATM caves was another highlight. Additionally, their level of accommodation was truly exceptional. When we had to leave early for an excursion before breakfast hours, they happily prepared a meal for us. We left Sweet Songs Lodge feeling relaxed and refreshed with plans to return, this time with our daughter. I can't recommend Sweet Songs Lodge enough for anyone looking to immerse themselves in the beauty of Belize while enjoying top-notch hospitality!
- Courtney (10/5): - We LOVED staying at Sweet Songs. What a magical place with really friendly and attentive staff. Peaceful and clean and comfortable. And so many fun things to do on and around the property. Can’t wait to go back!
- P9630ZNsamg (10/5): Amazing time! - My group came here on a yoga/spiritual retreat. We had an amazing time thanks to the staff. They were very helpful and accommodating. The food was healthy and fresh. We went on a tour to the Mayan ruins with Carlos. I have never had a more passionate tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and made the tour more meaningful. Thank you Sweet Songs for making our experience as fantastic as it was!
- jeffrozic (10/5): Most beautiful, and friendliest, jungle lodge - The most serene setting in the jungle and surrounded by a river you could imagine; very comfortable beds and clean, modern rooms surrounded by lush trees and grounds. Great food in the Treehouse and delicious drinks at the beautiful infinity pool. And best of all, the friendliest staff you will ever meet, making you feel an instant connection to Belize.
- amytl2025 (10/5): A great Oasis in the jungle - We had an incredible time at Sweet Songs. We had been travelling for a couple of weeks and it was a great place to rest. It wasn’t crowded, and was very laid back and quiet. The grounds were well kept and beautiful. The pool area was very clean and comfortable. The restaurant had excellent food and was an amazing setting. What made the experience for us though was the staff! Maysin, Alex, and Yesenia in the restaurant went above and beyond. Also Katherine and Esmeralda at the front desk helped us with anything we needed including our transport to Belize City. And of course Henry at the pool kept the good vibes going with his playlist and very creative drinks during happy hour. Thank you to everyone at Sweet Songs for your genuine kindness and making our time there outstanding!
- BilingualSA (10/5): Excellent mom and son trip - My 9 year old son and I travelled to Belize for vacation. Our stay at Sweet Songs was perfect!! We loved swimming in the beautiful pool and walking around the grounds. There was a wonderful happy hour with delicious food and drink specials. My son loved playing the large jenga game while noticing agoutis roaming around. We also used their tubes to float down the river, landing back on Sweet Songs beach. Our beds were comfortable and the staff did a great job checking on us. We loved the free night jungle tour and our guide showed us lots of nighttime creatures. The staff were able to set up excursions for us. The highlight was our cave tubing experience. Oveall, our stay was perfect. We were there 5 nights and were sad to leave.
- Extraordinary509646 (10/5): Excellent! - Excellent accommodations! The food is delicious. The service is excellent. The tour operators were so personable and accommodating. We enjoyed the cave tubing and horseback riding the most. We couldn’t ask for anything more. We loved staying here and highly recommend it.
- Denise (10/5): - We enjoyed the peacefulness of the Sweet Songs property. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the food was great.
- joelV272UU (10/5): Simply The Best - This vacation was perfect! The staff was incredible. Extremely attentive, welcoming and friendly. They made our stay special in every way. Rita, Yessie, Alex, Derby, Ragner and Maysin are absolutely the best. Tito and John are a wealth of local knowledge. They even showed us baby Toucans! Our complements to the chef because every meal was fresh - farm to table and unbelievably delicious! Henry the pool bar tender mixed up exactly what was needed to quench your thirst. We will 100% be back to visit our new Belizian Family! Sweet Songs is UNBELIZABLE! You better BELIZE that! 😜
- 498judiw (10/5): Signature Treehouse room 18 - My husband and I were in the Signature Treehouse 18 and my sister-in-law was in 19. We booked Sweet Songs because we wanted a nice Jungle Lodge with air conditioning. Sweet Songs delivered beautiful Treehouse accommodations with air conditioning, a nice comfortable king size bed and an outdoor shower and bathroom. It was perfect for a Jungle experience. We booked the All Inclusive package and stayed for three nights. The food was very good and the drinks were creative and delicious. The staff was amazing with everyone being very helpful and friendly. All the guests were very nice. We enjoyed the pool in the afternoons and did excursions during the morning. We visited the ATM cave for the second time and had another fantastic visit. We also visited the Xunantunich Mayan Ruin which is a short drive.
- Journey10199994330 (10/5): Treehouse review - Best tree house ever. Great people such as Ragner, Maysin, our tour guide Saffron. Definitely recommend visiting this place!
- rebeccamA5676KX (10/5): Fantastic jungle lodge - We loved the Sweet Songs!! The staff is amazing! Shout out to Esmeralda, Rita and who could forget Maysin!! We did ATM-not for the faint of heart, Barton Creek and Xunantunich. Ask for Selvin to be your tour guide he is fantastic and takes it seriously! We were in number 11- a house with two bedrooms and a full kitchen. We fell asleep to the jungle noises and woke up to the birds. Food was excellent! We stayed for three days. Beware of the tarantulas they are there but won’t hurt you. We loved seeing the birds in the am and they feed them during breakfast time. We can’t say enough great things about the lodge. If your looking for an authentic jungle experience this is it!!
- 191aydeny (10/5): My experience at Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge - It was a great experience. They have night walks where you can find lots of cool critters and animals. They also have a pool and a bonfire with marshmallows. The food was excellent everything was great and they can even make diet and allergy exception. The room are very nice, clean, and comfortable. This resort fully immerses you in the jungle experience and is lots of fun.
- Erik (10/5): - Amazing stay with amazing staff, Clean and safe! Delicious food. Always place to eat at the restaurant. Excellent service. The pool was amazing! The road to get there is a bit bumpy (for the rental car) and the beach/river looks nice but the kids didn’t want to spend time there.
- malyw2017 (10/5): Family vacation with kids - We love our stay at Sweet Song. The staffs were all amazing. Me and my family especially love Maysin. I bought papaya from the market and he cut it for me to eat. He's friendly and remembers everyone's name. He knows your favorite drinks. He's very nice to my kids. He is extra friendly to everyone. He's never tired to help you. I will come back. Beautiful location. Delicious food. Beautiful place. I dont want to leave.
- Adam (10/5): - Wonderful stay, amazing staff, hard to describe how great this place is. Not too fancy, but not completely roughing it. The ride in is on a rough road, no doubt, but once there you can spend all day exploring and enjoying the resort. The food absolutely didn't disappoint either.
- vickihX3181LG (10/5): Family affair - Highly recommend this incredible place! The staff were very welcoming, delicious drinks and the scenery was majestic!
- 260daniellaa (10/5): Amazing amazing! Family stay that we won’t forget! - Just left an incredible stay at sweet songs. Stayed as a family of four with our 8yo and 5yo. Room: we stayed in a casita that was pretty simple but met our needs for the jungle. The porch was a great addition especially on rainy afternoons with the swing and table it was perfect. The staff: where the place truly shines is the staff. I’ve never experienced a group of people that genuinely care about you, your family, and feel like family. One night are son spiked a high fever (which deep in the jungle was nerve racking for mom). Maysin was amazing! He told us about fever grass tea, went into the jungle to cultivate some and showed up shortly after with a freshly brewed pot, honey and milk. And I’ll be damned the fever was gone in the morning. Above and beyond doesn’t even begin to describe. It felt like we had a brother/ uncle taking care of us. Derby at the bar and restaurant was another uncle :) he spent an evening coming up with bar games and riddles for our kiddos. It felt like we were with an old friend. Rita and Ragner were incredible and always welcoming with a smile and felt equally like family. Remembering our kiddos favorites and helping them spot wildlife. Esmeralda was great and available on WhatsApp whenever we needed anything or had a question. General: we did river tubing, horseback riding, night hike, afternoons at the pool (happy hour is great) and loved it all. We had a rental car which was great for heading into town and to tours we booked separately. It’s about a 20 min bumpy ride from the main road so rent a 4x4 especially if it’s rainy season. Absolutely recommend! 100/10 as our son said :) We miss you all already!
- amykO364ZU (10/5): Amazing jungle experience! - My second time here and I will come back. The staff is incredibly friendly and the food phenomenal. Our hostesses Esmeralda and Kathrine are attentive, informative and helpful. I will say, one of the main things that drew me back, this time with my son that is a bit of a foodie, is Chef Melqui. The food here is all Farm to Table. Thank you Sweet Songs for another incredible stay!
- annemQ7461QZ (10/5): 11 out of 10 go here - Traveled with my husband and 3 teenagers and we had the best time! The staff is amazing and the grounds are gorgeous. Highly recommend a horse back ride with Tiro. We did the wine and cheese ride which was perfect but other guests did the ride to Xunantunich which they loved. Dirby, Ragnar and Rita will take care of anything you need and Arnold is a trooper!! There is so much to do at the resort alone between the pool, the beach with tubes and canoes, botanical garden and soaking in all the sights and sounds of the jungle. You will not regret a moment of your time here.
- Kevin (10/5): - This place was so wonderful. The staff were super friendly and quick tohelp as well as pointing out wildlife They're so knowledgeable. Everything was clean and picture perfect. My family didn't want to leave.
- andreakQ836OZ (10/5): Sweet Songs…the best! - Wonderful stay at Sweet Songs resort. The staff was amazing and the property is beautiful. Our family had a great stay relaxing at the hotel as well as taking in all the sites in the vicinity. The food was delicious. Our every need was met and felt very well taken care of. Can’t wait to come back!
- Nayland (10/5): - Great experience! Jungle setting,.nice property. Food is amazing and lots to do!
- brianhC4167FM (10/5): The real gems of this place are the lovely people working here. Everyone that we came across were friendly & helpful. - This is a beautiful place full of kind people. Would gladly come back for another visit. We sew many birds, animals & flowers. Enjoyed many hours of pool time. The guides for both of our tours were knowledgeable and accommodating. I would highly recommend the ATM Cave tour.
- alexbC7454BK (10/5): Felt like home - Really beautiful resort. Everyone was so friendly and made the extra effort to learn my and my wife’s name. Maysin, Nair, Enrique, and Rita were the best servers/bartenders we could have asked for. They made sure we were taken care of. They would also tell us a lot of facts about the animals that would pop up. Definitely recommend coming here!
- Getaway42975586624 (10/5): The jungle at its best! - Our entire stay was fantastic. The resort grounds are beautiful. The infinity pool with a bar, the river which you can tube down and have a fire at night, and every meal at the restaurant was excellent. Horseback riding with Tiro was the highlight. The staff was welcoming, attentive, and made us all feel welcome. I recommend Sweet Song without reservation and we are jealous of those that stayed longer. We stayed 3 days but should have stayed at least another 2 days.
- melbray (10/5): Amazing jungle lodge - Sweet Songs was amazing for our family of four(kids 10 and 12 yrs old). Beautiful grounds right next to the river which had easy access tubbing. The staff was so kind. Esmeralda was very welcoming and helpful with booking excellent excursions. The whole family loved the ATM cave and the horse and ruin tours. Tiro guided us on a horseback ride and was very informative on the local plants and let us tried different types of new fruit. He was very kind to our son who was having a hard time with the heat. John showed our son where to find all the night time creatures. We loved our stay and highly recommend it!
- Wednesday (10/5): - We really enjoyed our stay under the canopy. The pool was gorgeous & the food was amazing. We enjoyed the lazy river & proximity to Xunantunich. The road into the resort is rough, so be prepared for 5 miles of dirt/gravel at the end. We arrived at night, which I don’t recommend.
- janngoc (10/5): Warm and welcoming jungle sanctuary! - I visited Sweet Songs with my husband and 1.5 year old toddler and we had the most amazing time! Our flight was delayed over an hour and when we arrived, the restaurant and kitchen were already closed. We were worried because our toddler was hungry and the kitchen staff made her chicken quesadillas! They were delicious and such a kind gesture after an exhausting day of traveling. We felt very grateful. There are so many wonderful staff members who are so kind to us and made sure we were comfortable: Katherine helped us book our half day trip to Xunantunich and visit the Green Iguana Conservation project. Rita, Yesenia, and Ragnar made sure our toddler would always have food to eat and made toddler-friendly meal accommodations, even if the requests were a bit strange. I was clumsy on a hike and sprained my ankle, and Darby brought me an ice pack and bucket of ice for our room. He was so kind and helpful. I'd also like to give a special shout out to Maysin. My toddler was being especially picky with eating and my husband was thinking about calling a taxi to go to the supermarket in town to look for some instant ramen. Upon hearing this, Maysin went to town and brought us back some instant ramen so that we could feed our picky toddler. This was truly an "above and beyond" task that we were so thankful for. I highly recommend Sweet Songs as a family friendly jungle retreat. The restaurant was delicious (highly recommend the salbutes), the staff and service exceeded expectations, and the there are lots of things to do for families on site (infinity pool, river, tubing, canoeing, horseback riding, and the Botanic Gardens). They have many other amenities that we didn't get to try, but we thoroughly enjoyed our 3 night stay and would highly recommend Sweet Songs to other families with children.
- Samantha (10/5): - Sweet Songs was the absolute best place ever. The staff were incredible, the rooms were fabulous, the pool is a dream. I don’t think we could have had a better experience. They remembered our names, dietary restrictions and the food was incredible. I can’t say enough good about this place. We will absolutely come back.
- chris45mckinney (10/5): Spectacular Sweet Songs! - Sweet Songs was Spectacular! Beyond our expectations. The staff was knowledgeable on Belize and Mayan history. The staff called us by name and were extremely accommodating. We booked 4 tours while there, and took advantage of the complementary night hike as well as the river tubing. The food was wonderful. If you want a premier jungle experience, to to Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge!
- michellegX4111PP (10/5): Breath taking! - Beyond an amazing experience! To be in a beautiful resort in the middle of the jungle is the best relaxation we could ask for! The team go above and beyond to make you feel at home and meet all needs and questions you have. The grounds are beautiful, the pool deck is perfectly located with memorizing views of the jungle, the treetop bar restaurant is perfectly located at bird level to get all the action. We stayed in tree house 18, good location (middle of the property) very quiet and secluded. (FYI is even more secluded). The really comfortable and fun netting is so relaxing to lay on at any time of the day while taking in the mass view and such peaceful sounds of the jungle - also a sitting deck area and outdoor bathtub (we didn’t use since it was pretty hot) even hot days, it’s cool in the shade and enjoyable. We were lucky with the weather though in the mid 90s and high humidity, it wasn’t bad at all, unless you were doing a long tour solely in the sun lol the hotel can book all your tours and their guides are amazing. We also did a few night walks with a tour guide on the property to get a glimpse of the jungle coming alive at night, amazing chance to learn so much. We really enjoyed our stay and got even luckily as it was a very quiet time with minimal people so it truely felt a lot of the time we had the resort to ourselves. We would highly recommend this for couples, friends and even family - even with younger children (they do have kid menus FYI) some other activities that are included but we did not take part in only because we were to busy relaxing by the pool or on our netting at our treehouse - they have tubes and kayaking for river rafting, evening bonfires and botanical gardens near by. Lastly the food was incredibly, we aren’t foodies by any means but do enjoy good food, plenty of options for breakfast and lunch, dinner are preset with a handful of options, everything was fresh and tasted amazing. We were lucky enough that each morning for breakfast we were able to sit by the fruit platter set out for the birds and see all kind of beautiful wild birds. We look forward to coming back with our family in the near future!
- _sl8521 (10/5): Sweet Songs Is Wonderful! - We just finished our stay at Sweet Songs and booked the tree house room for 4 nights. We are so glad that we picked this wonderful property. The staff was amazing and the rooms were clean and very unique. It was located in a jungle area with modern facilities that maintained the uniqueness of the jungle. The restaurant had excellent food and drinks. The pool bar was amazing and a great way to wind down in the afternoons hanging out with the awesome bartenders. We ate breakfast with the two cans and various creates were visible from the patio in the evening. We booked three tours through the hotel and they did a great job coordinating everything door-to-door If you’re looking for a stress free travel experience that includes all park and guide fee it’s a good option. We highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a unique experience in the San Ignacio area. Shout out to Esmeralda, Yesenia, Tiro, Seff and the entire staff for all your hospitality and memories. Thank you for making our anniversary weekend so special!
- jana (10/5): - A Peaceful Jungle Retreat with Great Activities We had a wonderful stay at Sweet Song Jungle Lodge in San Ignacio, Belize. The lodge is set in a beautiful and peaceful location surrounded by nature—it truly felt like an escape from the everyday. The staff were all incredibly attentive and helpful, making us feel welcome and well taken care of throughout our stay. Our room was spacious and comfortable, although it was a bit on the darker side, which is to be expected in a jungle setting. One of the highlights of our stay was spending an evening by the beach enjoying a cozy bonfire. We also joined a night hike and spotted some really interesting wildlife—such a unique experience! During the day, we loved the river tubing and canoeing options, and happy hour was always a lot of fun and a great way to unwind and socialize. Overall, Sweet Song Jungle Lodge offered a great mix of relaxation and adventure. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy the natural beauty of Belize in a serene, friendly setting.
