My stay at GAIA River Lodge was nothing short of a dream! Surrounded by the beauty of nature, the experience was enhanced by the thoughtful and attentive staff. The location is incredibly scenic with waterfalls nearby, but it is quite remote, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The dining options were exceptional, especially with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, but don't expect a bustling nightlife since the lodge is off-grid. Overall, the perfect escape into nature with a touch of luxury.

My stay at Gaia Riverlodge was a memorable getaway. The stunning views and unique setting made it feel special, and the service was top-notch, giving us that VIP treatment. However, dinner pricing was a bit high, and access to nearby waterfalls felt overly restricted to guests. Overall, it's a beautiful place worth visiting if you're in Belize.
