    I would say you need transport here, we had a hire car so we're able to get around easily. I think it might be more of a struggle without your own transport.

    The accommodation was fantastic, tucked away from the town, but beautiful scenery and waking up to the bird song each morning was heaven! The breakfast was lovely. Our host was very knowledgeable and gave us some great suggestions for places to visit and things to do. We would definitely come back here, it was a little bit of luxury compared to some of the other places we've stayed. Our kids loved it too! So peaceful and beautiful.

    The is the PERFECT place to stay if you want to explore western Belize. Easy access to San Ignacio, Barton Creek, Mountain pine ridge and more. The setting here is peaceful and serene. I never expected to have a pool at accommodationso like this but we did and my daughter was thrilled. Dogs and chickens wander the property amongst beautiful landscaping. I would 100% come back to Yuma's if I ever return to this area!

    It would have been great to have a dinner option so as we did not have to drive into town - but totally understand that it was not advertised as such.

    Yumas Riverfront Lodge is a very peaceful and special place. It is a little off the beaten path - which is what makes it so peaceful. The cabins are really well designed and the pool was lovely.

    We had the pleasure of staying in this delightful bungalow in Belize, and it was an absolute dream. Beautifully designed and tastefully furnished. The owner welcomed us to her little slice of paradise and truly left no detail overlooked. Although the location is slightly removed from the city center, the owner provided helpful details and recommendations for reliable taxi services and food delivery options, making it easy for guests without a car to enjoy their stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this charming retreat to anyone visiting Belize.

    The Yumas resort has an amazing location—close to the city yet perfectly secluded by the river, giving you the feeling of being far away from it all. The cottages are exceptionally clean with a modern design. The beds are comfortable, and the bathrooms are spacious. The patios are open and covered, furnished with lovely patio furniture, making them the perfect spot to enjoy a breakfast. Christelle, the property manager, was incredibly helpful with suggestions for local dining and was such a pleasant person to interact with. Highly recommended!

    We loved the setting because it was remote. Getting food delivery was a bit tricky without a car.

    The sound of the insects and frogs in the evening were amazing and the cabana was setup perfectly to capture the night sounds whether you are inside or outside.

    Website photos dont do justice to its beauty. Googlemap doesnt take you there directly but ask Crystal and she will direct you no problem!

    The property is well- hidden in a little bit of paradise. The rooms were just great, “chic” and superclean. It is a fantastic place! Highly highly reccommended. A note on the staff: -Crystal ( hope spelling is right!). She was superhelpful with info from booking to check-out. Great host - cleaners ( apologies as I dont know their names). Just fantastic! Also, I left a large amount of money in the room when we left ( thought I lost it somewhere else) . Everything was returned to me after few days. Chapeau!!

    Luxurious stay by the river. Don't be shy to ask for pickup by the owner in a 4x4 if your vehicle can't make it on a rainy day. It is worth the effort. The lodges are superbly furnished.

    You need an SUV or some kind of car that sits up higher than a sedan, wasn’t expecting the road to be as bad as it was, but we found all roads to someplace good in Belize, like the ruins, have bad roads. Just be prepared for slow bumpy ride in. Look for little signs to get there, it’s not well marked.

    Beautiful stylish rooms with all amenities needed and a very comfy king size bed. View of the river is lovely and the place is so peaceful. We loved sitting on the deck in the afternoons watching the river flow by and then watching the lightening bugs at dark. You need bug spray. It is remote, so do your shopping before going there, the road into the lodge is very bumpy. There is a gas grill for cooking and pretty good sized frig. Cristol is a wonderful host who greeted us and helped with our luggage. She was very helpful with directions to places and had good suggestions for places to eat.

    The dirt road is not in good shape, but that’s par for the course in Belize after the rains. I appreciated that it was just as secluded as other lodges in the area, but much closer to town.

    The owner was friendly and responded to our needs. She arranged an early pickup so we could make our 7 am tour which left from town. She checked in frequently to make sure we were 100% happy with our stay.

    The road leading up to the property was challenging given the recent rains. Ensure you have a 4wd to minimize any issues.

    The property is wonderful - with just 4 cabins, it's peaceful and quiet. The property is located just 5 mins from town, hence restuarants, shopping etc. are easy accessible. The cabins are well furnished and have a lovely view of the river. Our kids enjoyed playing with the dogs and chickens on the property. Lots of fireflies in the evening adding extra charm to the property. Crystal, the host was very helpful and communicative at all times.

    The property and lodges are beautiful, even better than the online pictures if that’s possible. There were so many positives about our experience including the comfortable beds, view of the sunrise from our room, privacy of the lodge but only 5 min drive to downtown, the sweetest puppies on the property, and the most welcoming hosts that ensured we had everything we could ever need. All of our tours (ATM and Tikal) were willing to pick us up from the lodge without charging any extra fees. Would highly recommend :)
