This property is an oasis just a stone throw away from downtown San Ignacio. I was so taken with all the trees and plants and I love that they have benches to simply sit and enjoy nature. The shower was phenomenal, the bed was comfortable, and the A/C was superb. I liked that there’s was a little coffee maker complete with filter paper, ground coffee and powdered creamer and I made good use of it in the early morning when I needed to work remotely. Speaking of—the WiFi was excellent and I had no issues with any of the conference calls I had during my stay. Lastly, I’m very impressed with the attentiveness of the staff. There was always someone around to ask for help or get a recommendation, without them being helicopter-y. If you need a nature retreat within easy reach of downtown (if you’re into walking) I wholeheartedly recommend this place! It’s especially perfect if you’re backpacking but want a nice, calm place to stay. The bus drops you off at the bottom of the hill and it’s a 5 minute walk.

The staff were very friendly & helpful. Paula organised a lift from the ferry at Belize City & one over the border to Tikal. We felt that all of the drivers were friendly, professional & responsible. We liked the room, the pool & the site next door, Cahal Pech. The weather wasn’t great so we did the chocolate workshop & the green Iguana tour, both good. Shame the caves weren’t open.

The bar & restaurant were very quiet, it wasn’t high season but we found a couple of other places nearby which had a lot more people, so a better atmosphere in the evening.

We loved our stay at Falling Leaves Lodge. It's only a five minute walk down the hill to town, and less to the Cahal Pech archaeological site, but it feels like you're in nature. Our room was larger and nicer than expected, and super comfortable. AC worked great, good water pressure, hot water fast. I kept thinking 'I could live here.' The room had bottled water and coffee for us. The new pool area was very nice. The staff was super friendly. We passed multiple other lodging options and remained happy that we had chosen Falling Leaves. It's a great value for money as well.

After breakfast, we were unable to get drinks or snacks till past 4pm, which put a damper on cocktails by the pool. We also weren't able to get anything super early, prior to excursions, so plan for that. The restaurant food wasn't great and was pricey, but that's no big deal since there is so much close by. Great view from the restaurant patio!

We just spent six days and nights at Falling Leaves Lodge and had a great stay. Miss Paula is a wonderful hostess and her staff is very attentive. She arranged our transport to and from the lodge as well as our tours to the ATM cave and Tikal, both of which were fantastic. Our room was under the restaurant and as others have said there is a little noise during the hours it is open. We had breakfast every day there and most dinners and the food was very good. Would definitely stay there again and recommend it completely. Thanks Miss Paula for a memorable stay!

The hotel was perched on a hill overlooking San Ignacio with beautiful views at night. It is next door to the amazing Cahal Pech ruins which I recommend even if you are planning an excursion to one of the larger ruins nearby. We also enjoyed the iguana rescue center, the chocolate making demonstration at AJAW, and visiting the local market for some shopping and fresh tortillas in the morning. The zipline/cave tube adventure was about an hour's drive and highly recommended. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful, especially Miguel in the hotel restaurant. Our room was big with a nice patio and a giant king size bed.

The walk up the hill is steep! We walked up after spending some time in Ben's bar at the bottom. After that, we chose to pay taxis $5 USD each way to go into the city for site-seeing, shopping, and restaurants. Our room was under the restaurant which was a bit noisy until 9:00 pm. The food was hit-and-miss, some dishes excellent but others average.

During our spring break adventure in Belize, the Cayo district was our first stop, and we were fortunate enough to stay at the enchanting Falling Leaves Lodge. Nestled next to the Cahal Pech Archaeological Reserve, this hidden gem served as the perfect launching pad for our explorations. Upon our arrival at Falling Leaves Lodge, we were welcomed by the warmth and hospitality of Ms. Paula. Her exceptional service and meticulous attention to detail were evident from the start. Not only did she extend a heartfelt welcome, but she also went above and beyond to assist us in organizing our tours to the mesmerizing Mayan Ruins of Caracol, along with the captivating caves and Big Rock Falls. One of the highlights of our stay was the seamless transportation arrangements made by Ms. Paula. She not only ensured that our journey to Caye Caulker, our next destination, was hassle-free but also took the extra step to liaise with El Ben Cabanas, our hotel in Caye Caulker, to guarantee a smooth transition upon our arrival. The beauty of Falling Leaves Lodge is simply unparalleled. Surrounded by lush greenery and offering breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape, it truly felt like a haven of tranquility. The lodge's restaurant exceeded our expectations with its delectable cuisine, and the staff's dedication to providing exceptional service made our dining experiences truly memorable. Our stay at Falling Leaves Lodge was nothing short of magical. From the impeccable accommodations to the unparalleled hospitality of Ms. Paula and the rest of the staff, every aspect of our experience exceeded our expectations. For anyone seeking adventure and relaxation in the heart of Belize, Falling Leaves Lodge is the ultimate destination. We can't wait to return and create more unforgettable memories in this paradise.

Locaction is great, up the hill from downtown San Ignacio, so it was nice and quiet. The location is large and very peaceful. We enjoyed the pool and hottub. They were perfectly clean, even after it was windy and rainy. The receptionist Paula was so nice and helpful. We had an ATM cave tour and Tikal tour scheduled with MayanWalk Tour. When I booked the tour online, we would of had to walk a mile downtown to catch the start of the tour, but Paula called and had them come pick us up at our hotel. We also receiver a complementary welcome drink at the bar, plus the bar had many other delicious drinks. Dinner was also excellant. Beds and pillows were super comfortable too.

nothing, everything was great.

This is an absolutely 10 out of 10! Christiana and the rest of the staff go above and beyond to ensure that your stay is exceptional. They really do know the meaning of hospitality and we couldn't be more grateful for their attention and all of their guidance. We had an incredible stay thanks to them! When I return to Belize, I will DEFINITELY be coming back here!

I personally didn't mind this because I had rented a car, but just a heads up for guests who don't have one - there is a VERY steep hill getting to the hotel. Getting into town might be tough if you have trouble walking.

Finally a hotel that understands the needs of Americans. The layout of the hotel is practical and convenient. There is a hairdryer, a TV and a pool. The big bonus is coffee maker, 2 bottles of water and homemade muffins. Lastly, we received complimentary drinks at the bar. The bartender made amazing drinks. The service was incredible. We had a tour that the guide was not responsive. The hotel staff followed up with my tour guide. The grounds was well kept.

Falling Leaves is a brilliant hotel! The staff were so friendly and helpful throughout our stay and made us feel very welcome. Big shout out to the manager Paula on reception and Angel serving at the restaurant. Both went the extra mile to accommodate us at the hotel. Kevin the gardener was also very friendly and a lovely guy! The room was spacious and stylish, with a great shower, very comfortable bed and excellent wifi. Lots of great touches throughout too. We were also delighted to discover the pool had been opened only a month ago, which was a wonderful surprise and addition to our stay. We loved it. Thank you!

A little walk out of town (20 mins) but it didn't bother us as we were occupied with organized tours and it was easy to arrange taxis via Paula.
