Description
Chaa Creek has provided a unique rainforest experience for thousands of people while maintaining an unspoiled ambience. Chaa Creek Inland Expeditions caters to the traveler looking for both physical and intellectual challenges, and our range of programs and activities have been designed to stimulate interest in the environment, culture and archaeology of Belize.
Accommodations
This jungle lodge has 23 comfortable palm-thatched cottage rooms including two Garden Suites or a Complete Garden Suite with Jacuzzi, two Tree Top Jacuzzi Suites, an Orchard Villa and a Honeymoon Sky Room, all nestled along the riverside in a setting of unmatched beauty and tranquility.
The new Tree Top Suites at Chaa Creek appear to defy gravity as they stand eye level amongst the upper most branches of the majestic hardwoods that surround them along the steep forested banks of the Macal River in Belize's Cayo District. The large and airy suites combine elegance with a unique sense of adventurous design as they compete with nature for a panoramic birds-eye view of the encircling jungle landscape.
The Honeymoon Sky Room lies adjacent to the Orchard Villa and is set within a beautiful green orchard twelve feet above the ground. The room commands a panoramic view of the hill-land vista with the Macal River meandering below. The Sky Room has a Queen and Single bed and a small lounge area. An outside deck accommodates hammocks for relaxing and bird watching.
The Garden Jacuzzi Suite is furnished with a four-poster mahogany bed, fine linens, Guatemalan antique armoire, a spacious bath with Jacuzzi and a private screened verandah with jungle garden.
The Orchard Villa was designed with families in mind but it can comfortably accommodate two couples be they relatives or friends, or simply individuals that are looking for a lot of space within a tropical setting. This large thatched building transforms into a comfortable sleeping and lounge area with the potential to accommodate a family of six. Two queen-size sleeping bays are separated by closeted walls, a full bathroom and a winding staircase. The loft upstairs has two single beds and its own private bathroom. A screened in sitting room offers lovely views of its surrounding tropical gardens and it overlooks the orchard situated along the Macal River Valley.
The Macal Cottage is the newest starring attraction in Chaa Creek's award winning cottage colony. Perched on the edge of a grassy knoll overlooking the sleepy Macal River, the cottage blends stylish simplicity and elegant furnishings to create a romantic ambiance in a stunning rainforest backdrop. Nestled amidst tropical gardens, the spacious accommodation with its king sized bed, oversized day bed and leisure furniture also includes two private terraces for relaxing in hammocks or enjoying the outdoor Jacuzzi al fresco.
Chaa Creek's Cottage colony offers Coach Rooms for the guest traveling on a more conservative budget. The individually decorated palm-thatched cottage rooms offer fine fabrics, original artwork and mahogany furnishings, all combining to create a charming atmosphere. Nestled within tropical gardens on a grassy knoll along the banks of the Macal River, each cottage has private sun deck verandahs for viewing nature or simply relaxing in hammocks with a good book.
