The staff, the food, the service all excellent. Only comment is that having a massage during the rain on the yoga platform was not up to your standards. We had to ask several times for our massage to be in our rooms instead of freezing out in the open. Other than that our stay was very good and I would highly recommend Mystic River to anyone going to Belize.

The resort in itself is very well located overlooking the Macal River.
We paid extra to get a "Cloud 9 Suite) with a little pool in our terrace but unfortunately that little pool was too cold to soak and enjoy. Other than that, the room was comfortable even though the faucet and shower were of poor quality.
Our biggest disappointment was the quality of the food which was also overpriced for the quality and size served.
Also, we thought that offering a "continental" breakfast, when you pay your room a total of $320/night, was a little stingy since they always charge extra should you want eggs. It's better to add $20 to the daily rate and offer a full breakfast.
Overall, we had a good time but it was just ok and certainly overpriced for what it was.

Would be nice to have a small fridge in the unit ( for personal drinks, medications)
The property was wonderful. Dealing with Expedia was not pleasant.

What an awesome experience at Mystic River! After researching several places to stay in the Belizean jungle, my girlfriend, friends, and I decided on this one. The staff went above and beyond for our stay, even throwing a thought out surprise dinner for our friend’s bday. Steve, Leo, Sylvia, and Darwin were top notch and provided both great service and a wonderful experience with conversation and suggestions. The ambiance was everything we were hoping for and love the secluded jungle environment.
Would highly recommend booking any tours through them as well, especially the ATM one which exceeded all expectations. Thank you Mystic River!! 10/10

My wife and I stayed a few here for our 10 year anniversary and absolutely loved it! The staff was great and very helpful, our room and the adjoining private plunge pool were clean and well built, the restaurant was amazing, the facilities were well cared for. Definitely will be coming back next time we visit Belize! The tours and massages were also very good! Would recommend!

It was amazing. The food was delicious. The staffs were friendly and very accommodating. The only problems we had was the room had no AC or mini fridge. If it had it this resort would be a five.

It was exactly what the Dr ordered: peaceful, quiet, serene, tucked right in the jungle with nature. Couldn’t get enough. Almost cried when we had to leave. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants a relaxing stay in San Ignacio!

Very clean and updated rooms in a secluded area in the jungle. Sounds of birds and beautiful views of the adjacent river to wake up to.

Our stay at the Mystic River resort was fantastic. We stayed for 5 nights and I am glad that we were there for that amount of time. There are so many great activities to do in the area and we used the lodge as a base. We spend 1 day doing local activities and relaxing in the lodge. Highly recommend their tours as they are flexible and private. We just booked the night before. The restaurant is fantastic! I highly recommend the lodge as a place to decompress and enjoy nature.

This was an amazing property and we had a wonderful time. It is off the beaten path. There is no air conditioning so when it is sweltering it may not be everyone’s cup of tea. We had plenty of fans and slept with all the windows open.

Excellent true jungle experience.

Mystic River Resort feels like you are staying in the Congo with an amazing staff, food, drinks, and rooms. The rooms do not have AC so we recommend staying here in the winter/spring unless you are used to the humid heat. The excursions available all around are awesome! And the food/drinks within town are amazing and CHEAP! We will definitely be back to the resort in the winter for a cooler experience as we see more temples.
5.0
Staff are attentive and helpful. Property provides many amenities and options for touring around the San Ignatio area. If I find myself coming back to San Ignatio I would strongly consider staying at Mystic River again.

This is a beautiful property and the staff were wonderful. The dining on the property was really good as well. You can book all excursions through them. Drinkable tap water was nice. Beautiful rooms and property. Please keep in mind you are in the jungle so big beetles/bugs can make it into your room. You Also can be woken up in the middle of night by loud animal noises. I thought it made the experience pretty cool but it did freak me out the first time. Would recommend and stay here again.

We loved our stay at Mystic River! Beautiful resort, lots to do one site, close to town and so much to do in this area of Belize.
5.0
This property deserves its high ratings. Staff is exceptional. The good and slightly inconvenient issue with the property is its location. In good side, you really feel like you are in the jungle and river views are spectacular. The downside is the property is a short drive outside town so no walking to town or getting a quick taxi. Need to plan activities ahead.

We had an amazing stay at Mystic river. The food, staff, and accommodations were incredible. The tours can be booked daily before 6pm with knowledge and safe guides. We were concerned about the lack of AC - but the evenings were pleasant and the plunge pool helped. Their private gardens are all organic and the food was very tasty. We highly recommend!

Silvia, the front desk concierge/manager/person in charge (I'm not sure what her exact title was), did a fantastic job arranging out daily outings and customizing it to meet our requests and giving her recommendation to make out 4 night stay for our family of four memorable. The dining staff made special arrangements to make my daughters birthday special, it was a great surprise for all of us.
