Banana Bank Lodge & Jungle Horseback Adventures

Friendly staff, great atmosphere. The horse riding was amazing! The owners are absolutely amazing. Dinner and breakfast are overpriced for what you get. The rooms are spacious and the design is fancy. Only thing is that it's a bit run-down and would benefit from some renovations.

Beautiful property, lovely experience but also not what we expected. I would consider this more of a working ranch than a resort, as we felt like it's more setup for locals to Belmopan and cowboys than it is to the average traveler. Nice food, good overall value. Kind of a strange cowboy guy who apparently owns the property who was a little overly friendly to my girlfriend out of the blue. However seems that locals love him and have good things to say. If you're up for something a bit different would recommend this place, we picked it because it's much closer to the ATM cave hike than San Ignacio and also closer to Belize City. They have a caged jaguar on the premise which is cool and tons of horses. Although, even this we asked to reserve a ride, weeks in advance, we had to push to keep that reservation as they seemed to have forgotten about it. Also had a tarantula in our room which Carlos removed for us. Fun!

The property was beautiful. The rooms were huge and so unique. The staff were wonderful. We met the owner and that was indeed very special. We would definitely stay there again.

Room booked was not available. No information was given. Had to move rooms but with hotel help. Friendly staff. Property itself was run down but grounds were fabulous. Wild animals in captivity including a ‘rescued’ jaguar. Does not impress. Conflicted morality. One thing for sure. Would not recommend and would never go back

This was my favorite stay in Belize. Mr. Johns hospitality made this stay. I Will recommend this hidden gem to everyone that will visit Belize.
