Escape to the Jungle: Why Our Belize Jungle Resort is the Perfect Vacation Destination

The country is known for its fabulous Belize jungle resorts, but few can compare to Black Orchid because of its lovely location. Conveniently situated just a 15-minute drive from the international airport in Belize City, Black Orchid is close to top attractions like the islands of Caye Caulker and Ambergris Caye as well as popular mainland destinations like the Maya ruins of Lamanai and Altun Ha, the Belize Zoo and Tropical education Center, the top sacred cave site in the world (Actun Tunichil Muknal or ATM Cave), and Barton Creek.

After enjoying a wonderful day of adventure in Belize, whether that’s paddling through an underground cave, hiking through the rainforest, bird watching, canoeing down a pristine jungle river, spotting exotic wildlife like monkeys, jaguars, and giant iguanas, sailing through the canopy on a zipline, climbing an ancient Maya pyramid, mountain biking, or horseback riding, jungle resorts in Belize like Black Orchid are the perfect place to relax and unwind, enjoying a deliicous gourmet meal, good company, a full spectrum of American television channels, high-speed wireless internet, and a comfortable bed.
