The Black Orchid is a beautiful property. The staff was amazing and the grounds stunning. Unfortunately, we were only there for one night, but we enjoyed the pool, grounds, and hearing the howler monkeys was an unexpected treat.

We had a great stay at the Black Orchid. The staff was wonderful and the food at the restaurant was so good! It’s an older property but was clean and well kept. The only complaint is the bathrooms are old and not updated so feeling grungy.

The staff was incredible, best service we had in our time in Belize. From the wait staff to the drivers and guides, top notch! Rooms were nice and very large. And the grounds we're gorgeous with many iguanas feeding and sunbathing during the day.

Get away from the world here.
This is an isolated resort. No real public transportation in the area. Pretty much no other attractions or restaurants around. There is a nice pool. The service and food was good but limited to what is on the menu. Grounds are kept in good condition. If you are looking for a peaceful place to relax and get away from the world this is the spot for you. Free shuttle service to the airport is offered.

We loved our stay here for two nights. It was peaceful, quiet, and very laid back. The pool was refreshing and quite. Pool side cocktails were great! Our room as rather large and river front. Super nice! We spent a lot of time with Edmund, and he was absolutely wonderful. He gave us a tour to the Baboon Sanctuary. He is local and very knowledgeable. He was also our shuttle driver from Belize City and back to the airport when we left. Our waitstaff was amazing as well. We celebrated our 3rd anniversary here and they made it extra special. The food was really tasty. We even had Howler Monkey's on property one night. Super fun.

It is a lovely property, reasonably priced with full service restaurant, bar and pool. My room was comfortable and large, staff was really nice, great service. Set on a river and you can experience the howler monkeys. Will come back as it is close enough to the airport for early departures or late arrivals. Can handle large groups but I came here solo, perfectly safe!

10 Star service! Amazing experience!
Our flight was canceled due to weather and we had to extend our stay in Belize. The staff at Black Orchid made this extra day of what could’ve been a huge frustration the best part of our time in Belize! Mariano, Ashanti, and Edmond were the most amazing hosts! Can’t say enough about how wonderful the staff here is. There were probably 10 of us that showed up last minute due to mass flight cancellations and the Black Orchid team lept into action to make this an amazing experience! Thanks to the owners who treat their staff so well and for Mariano, Ashanti, Edmond, front desk and chef that took such great care of us. The stay here and the river cruise we took from the resort was the most memorable experience we had in Belize. 10 stars!!!
Sunset River Cruise is a must
Edmond knew all the wildlife on the river

Great spot close to the airport yet feels far away
We had a great stay at the Black Orchid, beautiful location by the river and close to the airport. Staff were very friendly and the room was comfortable. A troupe of howler monkeys were right outside the restaurant! There were quite a a few mosquitos around dusk and at night, so bring your bug spray!

The property looks like it had better days and was probably at it's prime about 10 years ago. The sky deck is no longer maintained which is unfortunate as it has a fantastic tree height view of howler monkeys. Canoe's were old and un-maintained. Food good. Pool area good. No pickup at Airport even when confirmed twice that a pickup would occur. Good for 1 or 2 nights only as there isn't anything to do in the area, unless you want to take tours offsite.
