The Mayan Garden

+ La camera molto accogliente immersa nella natura

- Molte parti della struttura risultano abbandonate e poco curate dopo l'incendio che li ha colpiti alcuni anni fa

+ Cute little bungalows. Lovely property. The kids loved roaming around looking for animals. Good breakfast.

- No hot water in the showers. One of the fans in the room did not work.

+ The room was clean and the air conditioner was great. Nice having the mosquito netting.

- No additional amenities. No drinking water, no hot pot. The lighting is either institutional or one very small lamp. There isn't any where to gather. If you just want to sleep it is fine. There was a feedlot smell when you were outside. Also listing says complimentary breakfast, the restaurant on the road was closed Sunday and we were told we were not supposed to get the breakfast. So went down the road to Lamani Landing.

+ The room was spacious and beds comfy. The staff were very friendly. Great to have breakfast included and it was tasty.

- The shower was a bit temperamental. It took a while for the breakfast to be made and we had an early morning tour booked. The location is a little awkward if you dont have your own transport, e.g. for somewhere to eat in the evening and buying water.

+ I enjoyed the enthusiasm of the receptionist, Travis. The place is amazing, a park connected to a ranch of 1200 water buffalos. There is an avcess to a river where apperently there are crocodiles. I just saw a big iguana. Big room, comfortable bed, nice bathroom with warm water. I enjoyed also the breakfast, from about 8 different types, I choosed the "belizien breakfast".

+ Das Personal ist super freundlich und hilfsbereit.

- Vor einigen Jahren gab es einen Brand, der leider immer noch seine Spuren hinterlassen hat. Es gibt keinen Bereich um sich außerhalb des Zimmers und der Rezeption (einem geschlossenen Raum, eher ein Büro) aufzuhalten. Alles wirkt eher verlassen und trist. Am Fluss gibt es keinen Sitzbereich. Viele Bereiche sind Baustelle oder Ruinen. Die Matratzen im Dorm waren durchgelegen, das Bad ist durch eine halb offene Wand abgetrennt und so hört man alles. Es gibt keine Ausweichtoilette in der Nähe vom Dorm. Sonntags hat das Restaurant geschlossen, auch für Frühstück. In der Nähe gibt es nur 1-2 Alternativen, die einen Fußmarsch an der Straße benötigen. Oder man nimmt ein Taxi in die Stadt.

+ In the middle of the jungle, just a 1 minute walk down to the river, very spacious room and comfortable bed. The staff was above and beyond. Travis at the reception is such a knowledgeable, friendly, caring and funny guy. He gave us all the information we needed to make our stay unforgettable. He’s one of a kind and we are truly happy that we’ve met him and stayed at the Mayan garden. Make sure to do the Lamanai river boat trip to the Mayan temples. The breakfast is also super delicious and John makes the best juices from scratch. Super friendly guy and great options for vegetarians. We can highly recommend staying at the Mayan garden. Thanks for everything!

+ Stort och bra rum. Personal (Travis) som försökte och försökte när allt gick fel.

- Okay, allt gick fel på det här hotellet. Även om det ligger flera kilometer utanför Orange Walk valde vi hotellet eftersom det ligger nära utflykten till Lamanai. När vi kommer dit är det ett planerat elavbrott i området som hotellet inte hade berättat om: inget ljus och inget vatten och den enda restaurangen i området var stängd. Dessutom fick vi ett rum utan TV vilket skulle ingå. Elektriciteten kom tillbaka 5 PM som planerat men vattnet kom inte förrän 8 PM! Bara kallvatten. När elektriciteten kom tillbaka märkte vi att båda takfläktarna var trasiga. Travis räddade situationen med ett nytt rum 9.30 PM. Efter utflykten nästa dag fick vi byta rum en gång til (med TV !) men då fungerade inte wifi. Jag gick till receptionen och informerade den men chefen sa : "wifi fungerar" (!). Jag orkade inte diskutera mer och åkte in till staden. När jag kom tillbaka och satt mig i restaurangen sprang all personal omkring och försökte laga det trasiga wifi På samma gång meddelade restaurangen att den skulle vara stängd nästa dag och inte kunde servera frukost. Sammanfattning: det här hotellet behöver mycket kärlek och ännu mer renovering och investering, till exempel en generator, elskydd som klarar ett elavbrott, ett cirkulationssystem för varmvatten, tillräckligt med personal som lagar trasiga lampor, takfläktar etc. Tyvärr är ägaren gammal och verkar ointresserad.

+ The hotel truly feels like a real Maya garden—almost like stepping into a peaceful jungle. The property is beautiful, and the cottages have a charming touch of nature that makes the stay unique. Everything was very clean and well kept. The staff went above and beyond in every way. Highly recommend!

- It’s honestly hard to point out anything negative. It would be nice to see a swimming pool or a few more amenities in the future, but after learning that the property suffered a major fire three years ago, I completely understand they are still rebuilding and developing. So there isn’t much to add here.

+ Helpful staff, spacious room. Comfortable but dark which gives a dreary feel.

- Smelling local refinery not pleasant

+ Il faisait très calme, c'est appréciable pour une journée. Le restaurant à côté du "The Mayan Garden" était très bien.

- Travaux et saleté sur le site. Epaves de voitures qui trainent sur le parking du logement. Pas d'eau chaude, lits très petits pour 2 personnes. On entend les voisins qui parlent. Mauvaise insonorisation. Pas d'équipement à l'intérieur de la chambre pour se préparer une boisson. Electricité très dangereuse. Climatisation très bruyante.

+ The bed was comfy enough.

- None of the amenities listed actually existed. No pool or spa. No massage available. No on site restaurant and no breakfast available. Only provided one key that had to be in the room to operate lights and AC so could not cool the room. Provided only 2 towels when room was reserved for 3 people. No water or ice available!!!

+ Everything

+ Nothing really

- Everything

+ The bed was wonderful with mosquitos nets

- The shower head was clogged.

+ Alles Top, grosse zimmer, freundlicher Empfang, tolles Frühstück. Wir kommen gerne wieder!

+ The owner was super helpful

+ We did not have breakfast, location is great, Not far from town, very quiet and peaceful.

- Was dark walking towards the cabana, shower was cold only and it seemed to have been clogged since water accumulated on the floor while showering.
