This was the perfect place to stay on our first night in Belize. It is only a short drive and pick up from the airport is offered. The location is quiet and right on the river. The rooms are clean and the staff are friendly. The food is really good. We took a morning boat ride with Edmund and saw 30 bird species. Highly recommend this location.

We had a great stay at the Black Orchid. The staff was wonderful and the food at the restaurant was so good! It’s an older property but was clean and well kept. The only complaint is the bathrooms are old and not updated so feeling grungy.

We only stayed one night before flying home but we found all the staff so friendly and helpful. Service was amazing. Our room very comfortable and very clean. Pick up from our local flight at the airport was so smooth as well as the return trip. The office was so accomodating before and after arrival. The grounds were beautiful and well kept. Food at the restaurant and staff were very good Only regret was that we didnt have time to go on their 2 hour river cruise ( I believe they offer a day and night one!)

We had a lovely stay at The Black Orchid. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location by the river is very nice and you can hear and see monkeys at the property. There isn’t much walkable nearby. The Iguana Stop next door is excellent. Beyond that there isn’t much in Burrell Boom. The hotel will provide a shuttle to other locations, at an additional cost. There are no bicycles or canoes.

We loved our stay here for two nights. It was peaceful, quiet, and very laid back. The pool was refreshing and quite. Pool side cocktails were great! Our room as rather large and river front. Super nice! We spent a lot of time with Edmund, and he was absolutely wonderful. He gave us a tour to the Baboon Sanctuary. He is local and very knowledgeable. He was also our shuttle driver from Belize City and back to the airport when we left. Our waitstaff was amazing as well. We celebrated our 3rd anniversary here and they made it extra special. The food was really tasty. We even had Howler Monkey's on property one night. Super fun.
