The Crimson Orchid Inn at Orchid Bay

Stayed at the Inn with two friends that I have known since 1976. We had an absolute awesome stay! Stephen cooked our breakfast every morning usually a vegetable omelette, really good crispy, bacon, homemade toasted bread with butter made by the local Mennonites, delicious jam, bananas and pineapple. On days when we had to get up early and be down to the dock to take snorkeling trip arranged by Sea&Cerros, we ate on the lighter side and had delicious homemade granola and yogurt. Always a pot of coffee going in the morning and hot tea. Stephen was so hospitable and his team of assistants got us whatever we needed. Rooms have all the basic needs, nice walk in shower etc although could use a chair in each room. Sometimes I would see a gecko in my room, which I thought was really cool! Some beautiful birds, frogs, moths, geckos right there at the Inn. So relaxing, planned the trip around the full moon! One night we hung out on the roof deck bar area. We marveled at the moon, shooting stars, constellations, and pretty large moths! Saturday was pizza night made by native Belizean woman Myra, it was just delicious! Definitely worth checking out!

Great breakfasts. Rooms spacious but need more furniture (chairs for both rooms and verandas). Gated, so safe. Rooftop bar is nice venue (but we didn’t use). Non smokers beware that the only eatery nearby is like time traveling to 1960s America where everyone smokes indoors. Also populated by loud, profane drunken expats. Not what I seek on vacation!

What an incredible experience! The Crimson Orchid Inn is located in the perfect place. Between the gorgeous guided tours, compassionate hosts, and deliciously fresh meals, I couldn't have asked for a better time. The rooftop Treenet and Bar is also a must-see!
