Crooked Tree Hotels

"We had a delightful one night stay at The Gecko Bungalow the night before we left Belize. We originally chose the spot due to its close proximity to the airport and free shuttle. Michelle was out of the country but very responsive to our messages and even helped arrange for an early check-in for our group of 8.Scott was an amazing host, very personable, and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Lots of good conversation and fun around the tiki bar while the kids enjoyed the beautiful pool. Not to mention the best suggestion for dinner at a local brewery.The grounds and rooms are amazing with so much to explore and fun little touches around every corner. A perfect little slice of paradise.Our only regret is that we didn't choose the Gecko Bungalow for our entire trip. We are already planning our next vacation and looking forward to spending more days/nights at this amazing property!"

"If you are looking for the jungle experience than this is the place for you. We were greeted by the local troop of Howler monkeys on arrival. Beautiful house right on the river. Locals had been seeing Manitee in the river near the house. Kenny and Shanna were great. We are already planning a return trip. "

"We arrived in Belize early, and contacted Scott and Michelle, they gave us recommendations for a great restaurant while they were getting our bungalow ready for an early check in. The lovely house keeper, unfortunately was sick and couldn't come to work, but you would never know it. Scott managed like a boss! Not only was he the housekeeper, but the concierge, shuttle driver, and host!The moment we walked through the gate, it was a fun, funky, campy, paradise! " Alexa, play yacht rock" ! The gecko pool was crystal clear and we were greeted by the most awesome pool keeper Luci Lizard. We were a party of 3 in the gecko bungalow, 2 bedrooms, well appointed, bright and clean decor. There was a small kitchen, but had everything we needed, mostly congregated in the outdoor grill kitchen poolside! Scott and Michelle were responsive to all of our questions and needs, and had contacts for everything from tours to taxi service. If we are ever blessed to return to Belize, this is where we will stay! 10 out of 10 recommend!"

"This condo feels like home. The furniture is comfortable. The kitchen has the necessities. The condo is gated in a quiet neighborhood. The pool is gorgeous and perfectly maintained. The outdoor deck is set up for dining and sunning with table, bar, and lounge chairs. The mango tree adjacent to the deck area is heavy with fruit, but it is still to early to enjoy. The condo’s host is responsive and helpful. I couldn’t ask for a better home away from home!"

"Clean hotel, good food, nice pool & friendly staff- a great stopover point near Belize City!"

"Wifi kept dropping"

"Lovely property. We enjoyed our stay in the Loft immensely. Would definitely return. "

"Note: Whereas we originally signed up for Jungle House, they needed to switch us to Howler Landing. (explanation not clear). That said, the house was very nice, quite beautiful, comfortable, with 2 comfortable queen beds, modern appliances, spacious, and very well stocked (except no shampoo or soap for shower). Shanna & Kenny were "super", friendly, helpful, communicative & provided transportation (for a price) between destinations. They were very responsive to questions & concerns. You will see Howler monkeys quite close up. There is a river nearby, but you have to "wade" through construction "stuff" & mud to get to it. It's not "swimmable". The negatives were: its remote location, in a fairly poor neighborhood with few services nearby. There is a fair amount of traffic noise. The property is under construction (other buildings in the immediate vicinity) & so it's kind of a "mess" at this time; so the "surroundings" are quite suboptimal -- it may be better in the future. A nearby neighbor cranks up his stereo very loud much of the daytime, but fortunately, not at night."

"The place was clean but the photos are showing 2 places. The beds were confortable. The bedroom were not insonorated like it was written so we could ear lots of neighborhood dogs barking at night. Overall the place had everything we needed to visit that local part of Belize."
