In Mayan, Chan Chich means "little bird" and the vast number of species found in the surrounding forests make this a birder's and naturalist's paradise. With the highest Christmas bird count in Belize (and fifth highest in Central America), Chan Chich has been recognized as "Wilderness Retreat of the Year" by Andrew Harper's prestigious "Hideaway Report" and has been featured in recent issues of both Conde Naste and National Geographic Traveler magazines.
The 12 thatched-roof cabanas surround two central buildings that contain the reception desk, restaurant, bar, gift shop, and library. Each cabana is fully screened and has two queen-size beds, ceiling fan, private bath with hot and cold water, 24 hour electricity and a wrap-around veranda complete with hammocks. The cabana is beautifully finished inside with local exotic hardwoods.
After an exciting day of discovery and exploration, you can relax at the Lodge with a refreshing cold drink from our well stocked bar (aptly named "The Looters Trench") or a dip in the pool and watch the sun go down while sipping a margarita in the spa. Later, enjoy a candlelit dinner sampling a variety of native and international cuisines.
Chan Chich Lodge can be reached by air from Belize City or by automobile. If driving, four wheel drive is strongly recommended, and plan on taking all day from Belize City. Although a long drive (4-5 hours) you will have a unique opportunity to see a number of different ecosystems in the country and, no doubt, a considerable amount of wildlife. It is a memorable drive.
