Overview

by FVC

This jungle gem located on 354 acres of intact rainforest abutting the Tapir Reserve in Cayo District is an ideal vacation spot for families that love natural habitats and enjoy modern convenience.

The resort offers two- and three-bedroom/two-bathroom villas with kitchenettes and flexible bedding options perfect for families. The villas have ceiling fans, as well as the option of air conditioning and cable television. Internet service is available in the resort’s lounge and restaurant areas for resort patrons.

A bonus for families who visit is the wide range of onsite tours that the resort offers including five ziplining options, a cable walk, rope ladder challenge, rappel and Belize’s only jungle swing “El Columpio.” The resort also offers onsite bird watching, several hiking and medicinal trails, a night hike, and biking and dry caves used by the Maya. The onsite creek and swimming hole are an excellent destination for a jungle family lunch for experienced hikers.

The resort serves as an excellent base for family tours of local Green Hills Butterfly farm, the majestic Mayan sites of Caracol and Actun Tunichil Muknal, Barton Creek Cave, Rio on the Pools, Rio Frio Cave, Big Rock Falls and Thousand Foot Falls.

Another reason to choose this resort is its excellent full-service restaurant, Crossroads, noted for its savory and affordable meals and open doors. The resort’s Friday, poolside barbecues are an additional delight for guests.

Excellent Jungle Retreat

by Marilyn F

Originally was going to stay a couple of nights and ended up staying 6! The accommodation was very comfortable and the staff were friendly and attentive. Cleanliness was important to the staff and everything is very well maintained. The property offers many options for activities - ziplines; two caves (with interesting formations, pottery relics and one with a Mayan calendar) with knowledgeable guides (thank you Henry), walking trails-with or without guides; pool; hammocks in the gazebo and under trees; poolside chairs; pool floats and more. Restaurant had wonderful delicious food and a good variety. When ordering for a specific dinner time, the staff was very punctual! I was able to take a tour by one of the staff of Caracol with a couple of other guests that included the Rio Frio Cave and swimming in some natural pools. Overall, my stay was wonderful and the staff made you feel like you were “part of the family.” I highly recommend Calico Jacks!

A true Belizean experience!

This place is very special for many reasons. It is a true Belizean experience and we had a great time. The food is wonderful and all fresh and homemade and served at the exact time you request it! Keep that in mind if you like to relax with a cocktail first! All the staff were welcoming and very helpful. The onsite cave is a must, and they have many other tours available. The zip lines were fun too. We wish them the best!
