Jungle Hospitality in Beautiful Belize

Jungle Hospitality in Beautiful Belize | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Jungle hospitality, one of the thing's Cayo is known for, is one of the focuses of this superbly written article from Jaxfax magazine.  Chaa Creek and Hidden Valley Inn are highlighted, of course, and Caracol, ATM, Butterfly Falls, and the San Antonio Women's Group classes are recommended.  Well worth a read. 

 

"Belize offers two realities: Jungles where you can hear the roar of howler monkeys and stay in rooms that make you feel like you’re at luxury summer camp - where you can disconnect from 24-hour media and other noise pollution, and the glowing aqua shore where you can lean against palm trees on a beach that retains its wild outlines and enjoy a pina colada.  Belize offers both those experiences.  Start in the jungle with rigorous hiking, biking, swimming, bird watching and other activities and end the trip with relaxation, snorkeling, a fishing excursion perhaps or a trip to a high-end spa."

Top 13 Places to Visit in Cayo | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Here's a top 13 list of places to visit in Cayo, courtesy of Chaa Creek.  ATM, Xunantunich, Rio Frio Cave, Big Rock Falls, and many more are on there.  Taking a pontoon boat on Vaca Lake is a new one.

 

"The Vaca Lake is a man-made reservoir in the upper Macal River Valley a few miles upstream from Chaa Creek Lodge.  When the lake swelled into a 6 mile long waterhole, Lazaro Martinez who grew up in the area decided it was time to invite adventurers to his childhood backyard.  Join him on a hilly jungle trek to his pontoon, La Capitana for a tamed loop around the lake.  The gentle drift offers a unique opportunity to spot myriad creatures including, Tapirs, Spider Monkeys, Ocelots and a plethora of Birds conveying at this biospheric junction.  La Capitana docks at one of three pristine waterfalls for an exploratory hike and optional swimming.  Relax at the water’s edge and enjoy your picnic lunch."
