"Our stay at Hikatee Cottages in Toledo, Belize, was pure magic—a true slice of paradise! The property is a vibrant oasis, brimming with colorful flowers and lush greenery that feels straight out of a dream. One unforgettable moment was spotting the rare and exquisite black orchid, Belize’s national flower—a breathtaking experience for any nature lover. As the tropical sun set behind the treeline, the resonant calls of howler monkeys echoed through the rainforest, creating a mesmerizing, otherworldly ambiance that made us feel deeply connected to the wild beauty around us.What made Hikatee Cottages even more special for us was its fully off-grid setup, perfectly aligning with our values of sustainability and eco-conscious living. Its secluded location, a bit out of the way, only added to its charm. We cherished the peacefulness and sense of privacy that came with being tucked away in such a serene, natural setting.The cottages were thoughtfully designed with cozy beds for restful nights. Allison, the amazing host, greeted us with fresh-cut flowers in each room, a gesture that made us feel so welcome. The main house featured a full-service kitchen, perfect for preparing meals.The grounds are a haven for serenity.With stunning artwork, a tranquil bar area, and Allison’s warmth and attentiveness, Hikatee Cottages far exceeded our expectations. It’s a must-visit for anyone seeking a peaceful, eco-conscious getaway. We can’t wait to return to this enchanting retreat!"

"The room especially the shower was gorgeous . The bartender Duckey was ten toes down the Best!!!!"

"The staff was exceptionally friendly and helpful! Going to sleep at the excellent refreshing and authentic jungle experience. I loved going to sleep and waking up with the sounds of the jungle right outside my door. I recommend the bird watching excursion with Paps. He's very knowledgeable and has the eyes of an eagle."

"Florette was wonderful and the breakfast that was included was fantastic. Loved my comfortable room that has everything I needed, including hot plate, microwave and fridge. You can walk to the center of town where everything is, along the waterfront in 10 minutes. I took the ferry to Guatemala one day. There's no air conditioning (typical in Belize), but this isn't a problem since you're right on the ocean and there are plenty of fans. What was a problem is there were no screens on two windows, and the traditional windows are venetian-style slats, so they don't seal. I was covered with mosquito bites every morning. This in a country where Dengue is an issue. It's a wonderful place, just confirm the room you're in has screens on ALL the windows."

"Coral house is such a gem that I actually don’t want to share! But as I do want the to stay in business… It is a serene, well built hotel on the water with shady spots and set up to catch the breeze. The hotel serves breakfast; continental is free, but a made to order breakfast is also available for a reasonable fee. The pool is a lap pool and the thatched cabana was a perfect place to relax with coffee. Did I mention the comfortable beds? The staff, including Greta the cat, is helpful and very accommodating. I will be back!"
