An incredible bargain set in the middle of a Mayan ruin
The Lower Dover Jungle Lodge is literally located on a Mayan site. When we approached it, immediately brought to mind the hippie era of the 60s and 70s. The cabins are colorful and the meals, communal-which we really enjoyed. It is owned and operated by an American geographer and his wife. They are very knowledgeable about the area and took the time to share a bit of it with us. They created walking paths throughout the site that someday will be excavated. Our room was amazing given the price and we were able to see canaries and parrots from it. The room was very clean and comfortable.

Overall fantastic!
We loved the place! Very traveller friendly and for us as a couple we stayed in the Wild Kabana and it was the first time people had stayed in it as guests! It’s got a more privacy as it’s further away from the other rooms, and it’s next to their own creek you can swim in. We were given headlamps and power banks too as the place is very Eco-friendly and they use mainly solar power to power the electricity. The Wild Kabana didn’t have any electricity but it has its own private toilets and it wasn’t a problem at all for us. They serve homemade dinner and breakfast for a low fee and it allows people to get to know each other over dinner in the communal dining room. The hosts and other staff were lovely and let us leave our bags while we went to a local tour at the ATM caves. Also if you like dogs, you’ll love it here! They’re very friendly. If you don’t, they won’t bother you much unless you want to say hello to them.

Great place to stay
Calm and cozy cabana in the jungle. You could hear the birds and animals while chilling in your hammock on the porch. Property is next to the Belize river so ideal for a refreshing swim. When lucky you can swim with the otters. Madeline and Abby were very sweet and helpful. Giving us a lot of tips on what to do and see in the neighborhood. Home cooked breakfast and dinner were great. You also have the option to use the kitchen and cook something yourself. Madeline gave us an amazing tour of the property and showed us the mayan ruins. Good location for visiting the ATM cave, San Ignacio and Mountain Pine Ridge Forest.

A real hidden gem :)
This property is beautiful! I love the story of how this place came to be and Maddie is a genuinely lovely host! All the meals were delicious! (Breakfast and dinner available for $6/$12 respectively) they do meals all together so it's a great time chatting and getting to know everyone. The property really is beautiful, I kept finding new places, so much space to wander around and really relax. Tours are easily set up to pick up from lower Dover and there are also some cheap options to explore on your own close by. I was only going to stay for a night but extended to the end of my trip, just loved it!

Amazing place
Tranquil and in the same time close to action. The place is gorgeous, on ruins and close to a refreshing river. Even better, Maddy is the best host one could wish for, providing the best advice, care and nutritious meals. Wish I could come back!
