In the heart of the jungle…super nice staff (thanks for taking care of us Mason!) Tree houses are super cool and very nice!
Close to some cool excursions- ATM cave and Tikal!

We enjoyed every minute at Sweet Songs. The all inclusive option was the way to go. Delicious local food--each of our meals were excellent and we ate all but one of them there over our eight night stay. Definitely intend to be a return guest. The staff was so welcoming and helpful, they totally spoiled us!

Our stay was overall wonderful. The resort is beautiful.The staff were truly wonderful, welcoming and helpful.
We stayed at this hotel twice during our stay.
Over our two trips we stayed in 3 different rooms. On the first visit we had found a really great last minute deal on their website. We only ended up paying around €80/night for the classic villa. At this price what you get is exceptional: A big room with comfy beds in a stunning environment. However when I checked the normal prices this room comes in at around $200 minimum. For this price I would have been disappointed. The room is spacious and bed comfortable with lots of windows surrounded by greenery and flowers however the bathroom is gloomy, the room sparsely furnished, the terrace a little sad. When paying $200 for a room, you expect a little more charm. The photos on the website were taken before the room suffered any wear and tear.
On our second stay we booked the "romantic" tree house which was over €200 a night (again, a good rate in low season) which was nice but again, a little sparse for the price. When we arrived there was a problem with the room so we were moved to the signature treehouse for one night. These treehouses are exceptional. Huge, elegant, with a swinging bed and bathtub outside, the whole veranda surrounded by a mosquito net. This room is 100% worth the price (between $300-400)
Apart from the pricing being off, this place is spectacular, surrounded by toucans and howler monkeys!

The grounds are so beautiful with so many different plants and fruit trees which attract the Howler Monkeys. The staff work very hard to make sure you are enjoying your stay. Food amazing here. Pool top notch. Very enjoyable. Before you book, If you require quiet, when booking your room, look how close you are to the Dinning and Bar area. They start working at 5:30am. There could be late night dinning noise also.

The property was beautiful and the treehouse accommodation was an amazing experience! It is definitely a place where luxury meets the jungle. I was happily surprised as there were little to no mosquitos even though we were in the middle of the jungle. Loved it!

Perfect jungle stay! Staff was amazing especially Esmeralda, Maysin, and Derby! Love all activities available like tubing and bike riding. Loved the pool happy hour and delicious food at the Tree House. It’s a magical jungle place! Would recommend to all!! Note it’s a bumpy ride in to the location but a beautiful one!

This was one of the best independent Central American hotels we've stayed in. AC worked great, it was very clean - we were greeted with decorations specific to the occasions we were celebrating. Drinks on arrival were great, happy hour at the pool was great (so was the pool itself), food was excellent. Bed comfort was fine. Hot water was plentiful and pretty consistent (which is unusual in Central America).
Excursions arranged by the hotel went off as planned. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We did see a couple bugs in the bathroom (understandable, as it's in the jungle), and when we notified the staff they jumped right on it.
We don't recommend taking the "night tour." Beach bonfires are a cool idea but when it's still 85F, a fire is a little hot.
Do get to breakfast a little early and go out on the walkway to watch and listen to the birds. We saw a group of Toucans in their natural habitat. Very cool!
As far as excursions, we strongly recommend the ATM Cave tour (if you're adventurous), and go over to Tikal. If you don't do ATM, then do a cave tubing tour (but only if the water level is not low). If you don't do Tikal, then do Xuantunich.
We would definitely return to Sweet Songs.

An amazing experience! Abdiel, Rita, Ragner, and so many others took such good care of us. Such genuine people at a beautiful resort. Food was great! If you are up early enough you will see a wide variety of birds at breakfast. We even saw a few howler moneys in the evening! We did the ATM tour and appreciated the deep compassion and respect our guide (Ben) had for the history of the archaeological site. We'll be back!

We had a wonderful experience at the lodge. It was the perfect mix of getting away and experiencing nature with amenities that allowed one to truly relax. The restaurant was very accommodating to the palate of teens (13 and 16) as well, one who is a vegetarian. The pool was amazing and there was one night when I had the whole pool to myself. We loved the animals that we were able to see - toucans, the kinkajou who loves his bananas, and howler monkeys (including a baby!). While it is a bit of a bumpy ride to get there from San Ignacio it is well worth the drive and the minor inconvenience of staying outside of the town. We took the Tikal tour and found that it was very well organized and highly recommend it. My only complaint, a very minor one, is that I did not feel the pillows were very comfortable.

Beautiful property and friendly staff. Property is very secluded which is wonderful on one hand and limiting on the other

One of the best experiences abroad. The people here are extremely nice and accommodating. The tour guides and employees are so knowledgeable and honest and will treat you like family. The treehouse we stayed in was beautiful and private, and the staff made sure the environment was as beautiful as possible around the resort. Immersed in the wildlife and jungle, but somehow looking sharp and clean, this resort is one of a kind and I highly recommend to anyone wishing to stay around San Ignacio and do the excursions around Cayo, but also wanting a private and uniquely familial experience. Thank you Sweet Songs!
5.0
Very unique stay in a treehouse with an attached tree "patio" There were soo many birds on the property, and a kinkajoo that came to eat bananas every evening at dinner. The Tree House Cafe was also amazing with a "Jurassic Park" feel with birds and howler monkeys calling in the distance!

Can’t underscore enough how lovely this place is. The grounds are beautiful. Perfect mix of activities and relaxing. But what really made the stay was the very lovely people. So kind and friendly. We’ll be back.

Aptly named - as soon as we got out of the car we enjoyed hearing the bird songs. The gravel road to the property was rough in places but easily passable in a car. The pool was nice. We enjoyed birdwatching around the property. Staff were all very friendly and helpful.

This is hands down the most beautiful, magical, and special place in the world. My fiancé and I got married here, elopement style, with a small group and I wouldn’t change a things! Sweet Songs went above and beyond our expectations and we really hope to come back as often as we can to enjoy this special place! The staff are so friendly and kind, the food is out of this world amazing, and the grounds are so peaceful!

We stayed in the Garden House, which is located at the base of the property. It doesn't have the elevated views of the other accommodations, but it's more private and secluded, has a large wrap-around veranda, and is steps from the Botanic Garden. It's more rustic than it looks on the website pics, and the futons in the pictures were regular mattresses made up as beds, so there wasn't really any seating other than the barstools. The kitchen included a microwave, coffee maker, and bottled water dispenser that was replaced when empty. I suggest stopping in San Ignacio on your way for groceries/snacks, since the road to the resort is narrow and bumpy- not a trip you'll want to take multiple times.
The resort itself is built on the river bank, with everything accessed by walkways with steps/stairs, so not a good choice for anyone with mobility issues. But everything is well-maintained, and the pool and restaurant are lovely. The food was very good, and we took the resort shuttle to dinner one night at the nearby Chaa Creek resort, just for a change of scenery.
The website mentions extensive hiking trails, but when I asked about a map/locations, I was told the only thing we could do on our own was the river tubing trail loop. Everything else required a guide. We did enjoy strolling around the Botanic Garden, but I had hoped to do more hiking.
The thing that stood out the most about the resort was the wonderful staff- everyone was hard-working, friendly and helpful!

We were in the Deluxe Bungalow for a family of 4. Room was very basic and needed a LOT of work. Drapes were all broken. Bathroom looked terrible (the worst I’ve ever seen at any hotel or resort even in the jungle) and severely in need of renovation. The entire room needed more light. These are the only rooms we could book with kids so couldn’t do the newer tree houses which I’m sure were nice! The pool area and restaurant/treehouse bar were great. The road getting into the resort is unpaved so takes about 20 min from the main road. All in all, I would not stay here again for family accommodations or recommend it to friends, but would suggest going for a dinner as the food and service was wonderful and next to the botanical garden so you could make a few hours of the visit.

Beautiful property, great staff, nice room,
Quiet but fun!! Based on the layout does not seem like the grounds could ever get overly crowded.
The pool is beautiful and one of a kind beach on the river. We would come back again!
2.5
The location is stunning and the accommodations are nice, but the staff make this place. They are kind, genuinely friendly, and go above and beyond. The food and drinks are top notch, there is plenty of wildlife, and the location is remote enough to feel special but close enough to access a wide variety of local adventures.

Nestled way back in the jungle with a beautiful pool. Great restaurant with delicious food. Room was clean and AC was cold. Right on the river and next to the botanical gardens. Lots of wildlife. And the name says it all…sweet songs for all the different tropical birds! I recommend a 4 wheel drive if you are driving yourself. Would definitely stay here again.

Sweet Songs is an oasis in the jungle, where you can challenge yourself with nearby trails, activities or on-site recreation then recount the day’s adventure relaxing by the pool for happy hour free snacks and drink specials.

Great property, very easy to communicate with and great staff who were really friendly and made us feel so welcome. Knowledgeable staff. We went on a tour of the Tikal Temple in Guatemala and our tour guide knew so much information and made it a great experience.

Had an amazing stay at Sweet Songs. The property is amazing and has plenty to do - we did the river tubing, canoeing, and horseback riding. Enjoyed the happy hour menu by the pool! The treehouse bar was nice and food was good, although a bit expensive for dinner.

Sweet Songs Jungle Lodge was a perfect place to stay and explore during our recent visit to Belize. The grounds are terrific, rooms comfortable and staff very friendly. The resort is relatively small which created a very personal experience.
Prior to our visit the staff was very helpful in getting the Cave Tubing/ Zip-lining and ATM tours coordinated. Both excursions were awesome, as were the guides.
We would definitely visit again.

This is such an extra beautiful treasure! We loved our stay and felt completely pampered while there. Excellent outings, warm and helpful staff, unbelievable wildlife, and gorgeous landscaping make this stay such a treat. Our room stay was perfect and our treehouse stay was so dreamy aside from a warm water hiccup. Thank you, Sweet Songs, for the wonderful memories!
