One of the most beautiful resorts I have stayed at. The canopy treehouse we were staying in had extraordinary view, and we enjoyed the beautiful outdoor shower. We were able to watch monkeys in the treetops, bids, butterflies were also frequently sighted. A great place for anyone who loves nature. The staff was exceptional! The food was also 10/10. Overall great experience.

So glad we found this gem! Beautiful gardens on the property and all of the staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and really seem to enjoy working there. The cave tubing was a bunch of fun and they made accommodations for our two small children. 10/10 would recommend and we hope to return.

Incredible spot with super friendly staff. You are in the jungle and it shows in every way. The sounds at night make the price of admission worth it alone. Being on a lazy river and having a cool pool is icing on the cake. Had one issue with our first room but they got it all squared away.

We stayed in a jungle cabana surrounded by the sounds of the jungle. There was an air conditioner above our bed that kept us cool during the hot June nights. The grounds were wonderful and the staff was very friendly and helpful.

Ian Anderson’s Cave Branch Adventure was simply amazing. The setting in the jungle was truly beautiful almost to a spiritual level. It was completely refreshing staying there in nature. One of the best parts was all the staff including the adventure guides. Everyone was so nice, friendly, and hospitable. They made you feel like you belong there and were part of their family.

Super cool cabins in the rainforest on a river. Full of birds and nature. Lots of day hikes and river/cave tubing.
5.0
A fantastic stay. This is a very special place. Our cabana was completely private, including both an indoor and an outdoor shower. A short walk through the jungle brought us to the road and all of the other offerings including the pool and restaurant. They took care of all of the bookings for our adventures.

Delightfully surprised with our stay!
A fantastic property with amazing staff, great accommodations and delicious food. It rained for most of our stay, BUT, I wouldn't trade it for the world. It was a fantastic experience and we very much look forward to returning

First time staying at Ian Anderson’s Cave, it was pleasant to say the least. The staff were definitely the highlight due to how friendly & accommodating they were. Just be cautious which suite you’re staying in because it can be a lot of walking; stairs. Overall, excellent stay and everything was more than reasonably priced.
5.0
Unique place. We love it there. The landscaping is impeccable. The staff goes above and beyond. The swimming pool is so fun for the family, with two waterfalls and a hot pool. Hard to get so close to nature and at the same time be so comfortable anywhere else. The view from the cottages by the river is breathtaking, the room is cozy and the decoration is great.
5.0
A beautiful property with lush jungle foliage which was well taken care of. The pool and decks were relaxing, the bungalows were spacious and comfortable and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The tours they arranged were close by and the guides were wonderful. A spectacular holiday spot.

We stayed for a week and enjoy every moment of it. From the spectacular views of the jungle to exploring the histories of the Mayan and explore the historical cave. This was the most spectacular, and unique experience I have done. The only down side I can say is lights! Lights being set upon the wall way towards your rooms it gets really dark. Rather than that the stay was beautiful and will definitely be back in the future.

The property is stunning nestled in the jungle. The pool, restaurant and facilities are awesome. The food and drinks are top notch. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The treehouse rooms blew us all away, and we quite enjoyed the outdoor shower. We loved being woken up by the call of howler monkeys! By far, it was the best place we stayed at in Belize.

This hotel is really special. Sits in the heart of the jungle but has a 5 star feel. loved everything about it including our out door shower. sooo cool!
5.0
We had stayed in a variety of locations across Belize, and this was by far our favorite. Situated in beautiful natural jungle surroundings, the rooms were very private & amazing and you can hear the beautiful sounds of the jungle around you. The staff were fantastic and the tours are well organized and easy to book. There's no internet or tv in the room which is perfect for recharging too. We will definitely recommend it and try to come back!!

We were only at Cave’s Branch for 2 nights after 4 days out on the cayes. We really enjoyed the tree house bungalow with the amazing views. Best of all was falling asleep and waking to the sounds of all local wildlife. We had a really great 4 course dinner of but more food than we’re used to eating at one time. All the staff were extremely attentive and helpful. The pool and surrounding flowering plants were incredible. We cave tubed 1/2 day which was interesting but water was low. Our only regret was not making it to the Mayan ruins. Next trip I guess!

Great experience with basic modern comforts but with the charm of a jungle experience. Highly recommend for romantic/adventure getaway.

It was an amazing trip and excellent resort! You have to go. I love the place, the view, very quit and the tours are very fun! We did the tubing, in the cave. Amazing tour, you can stay cool while its hot outside and you learn a lot. We went to the Zoo, Christain made it fun and took us to a restaurant with funny signs we were laughing all time. We also went to the Mayan Ruins, its tiring but fun, make sure you dress light and stay hydrated. Staff in the resort made our trip excellent. Very friendly staff. Tania, Angleita, Vector, Jose, Robert, Christian, Arnold and all of them nice and welcoming, and very professional! The room was just outstanding, be ready to make your workout for the week in one climb up 😆. The view was amazing. We were able to cleanse the stress of the whole year. One thing, be careful when dealing with Gio (one of the front desk team members) he will try to play smart, but he is sometimes confused about shuttle and tour prices, but he is nice and once you set the rules with him he would then help you!

The lodge is made for outdoor lovers. It was a beatiful property. Lots of birds, monkeys, and some other wiildlife spotted. Very freindly staff. Beds were comfortable. You will definitly need a flashlight because the paths are not well lit at night and it is dark after dinner. Also, the only thing I did not like was the group seating. For an introvert like myself, this style of dining was a bit of a an axiety overload. However, the food was good. Overall a good place to go.

What an amazing paradise! After traveling around Belize for a few days, my wife and I were referred to Ian Anderson's Caves Branch Adventures. We had 2 nights booked at another location before returning home and canceled one night to visit Ian Anderson's.
To say it was beautiful is an understatement. We instantly felt slowed down after the long floral path leading to the resort with a welcome drink in hand. Literally hundreds of different colorful birds flying around with LOUD howler monkeys climbing in the trees alerting other vocal monkeys of their location.
Before settling into our room we chose to cancel the other location and spend our final 2 days at the Caves. My wife and I counted dozens and dozens of different hummingbirds and colorful birds we’ve never seen as we relaxed in the pool.
Mornings feel like awakening in heaven as the birds and animals sing a grateful song that echoes over the river and through the mountain side.
Our adventure into Footprint Cave was absolutely unbelievable. Actually walking the same footsteps as ancient Mayans with geological proof frozen in stone over thousands of years was breathtaking and spiritual. Our guide Julio must have been chosen by the spirits because his passion is pure and natural.
Gio and the rest of the staff were all very attentive,very informative and knowledgeable about their location and country in this simple peaceful relaxing adventurous place. Our family will absolutely be returning!
