"The staff was very friendly and helpful. All staff speaks English. The restaurant had great food and wonderful service. Accepts USD or credit card. The room was clean and good A/C. This was a great home base for excursions to Mountain Pine Ridge and Caracol. It was less than a 5 minute walk from the resort to the Cahal Pech Mayan ruins. 10/10 would stay here again. It was also nice that the resort is a bit outside of the town which is quite busy with hustle and bustle of daily life."
"Very nice room and facilities. Nice patio with hammock. Staff friendly and helpful. Coffee shop does not open until 8 or later
Several restaurants nearby, important to note, there are several restaurants on the street parallel to Burnes avenue - cut throught across from the Burnz resturant."
"Like many eco lodges in the area, rooms are basically screened-in porchs with adjustable shutters - perfect for the setting, but very exposed. So, I get up at 2:30am for a routine bathroom visit, and let me add the (surprisingly relevant) detail that it was the quick and quiet #1 variety. Just as I was back in bed turning off the light, someone in the dark just outside my window asked 'Are you alright?'. Startled, at first I assumed this was a conversation between 2 people coincidentally on the walk outside my room, and I did not respond. However, the person who identified as a security guard seemed to really want to start a conversation with me, and kept asking until I responded. If I was not fully awake before, I sure was now and hours after,"
"I can’t stay enough good things about our stay at Villa Massis! It was slow season so it was so quiet and secluded and felt like we were VIP with the place to ourselves! Beautiful grounds and felt like a true jungle oasis! The rooms were perfect with all the needed amenities and nice artwork. I loved the separate living room space which was perfect to accommodate our 1 year old’s pack and play. We did the pontoon boat tour with them which was an all day tour and some of the most incredible and secluded views I’ve ever seen! Staff was great. Definitely recommend!"
"We just returned from Blancaneaux, and we’re still thinking about the food, service, ambiance, and overall experience. It was absolutely outstanding, and I highly recommend staying here.
A few things I especially loved:
Everything was incredibly clean, with this beautiful indoor/outdoor feel.
You are truly in the middle of the jungle, and it feels like it.
They have an organic garden on site. Fresh, high-quality food is really important to me, and this was a standout.
You can have complimentary coffee brought to your room in the morning. It sounds like a small detail, but it makes such a difference.
If you are a runner, you can run at the nearby airstrip, which is a huge bonus.
A couple of tips:
If you hike to Big Rock Falls, be prepared. It is a rigorous hike and can get very slippery, especially if it has rained. Bring plenty of water.
If you swim in the river or around the falls, the rocks can be extremely slippery. We found it was much better not to try to stand up on them.
Overall, Blancaneaux was one of those places that really lived up to the experience we were hoping for. Beautiful setting, wonderful people, and some of the freshest food we’ve ever had."
