Lamanai Outpost Lodge: Located on the outskirts of one of Belize's most impressive Mayan ruins, Lamanai, the lodge was built on the shores of a fresh-water lagoon of the New River. The resort boasts 18 hand-built, thatched-roof cabanas, each with a veranda, private bathroom with hot water, electricity, and ceiling fans. Amenities include an open-air restaurant and bar with panoramic views of the jungle and the lagoon, two lecture halls, audio visual equipment, and research labs.

Activities include canoeing on Dawson Creek, visiting the nearby fascinating High Temple, Jaguar Temple and Mask Temple Mayan ruins with one of Lamanai's knowledgeable guides. Or just hang out in your veranda hammock and watch the New River wildlife from the banks of a 28-mile long spring-fed lagoon.

The lodge is surrounded by an incredible variety of habitats that facilitate unsurpassed nature-based and soft-adventure activities that depart right from your cabana's doorstep without the need for day-trips. Lamanai Outpost is one of only a very few of Belize's jungle lodges to have been repetitively featured on shows such as Wild Things, Discovery, Animal Planet, National Geographic Explorer and World Gone Wild. Voted Belize's Hotel of the Year for 1999/2000, the Outpost is consistently utilized by high-end travel companies and is widely recognized as one of Belize's finest jungle lodges.
