Belize’s Premier Rainforest Retreat
Tucked deep within the heart of the Belize Maya Forest, Chan Chich Lodge is more than just a place to stay – it’s a fully immersive Belize rainforest lodge experience. Since the 1980s, we have been at the forefront of private conservation, safeguarding 30,000 acres of pristine wilderness that form part of over 500,000 acres of protected lands managed in partnership with the Belize Maya Forest Trust.
Located in Northern Belize’s Orange Walk District, our remote jungle hideaway offers unparalleled access to nature while providing comfort, world-class service, and authentic Belizean hospitality. This unique setting is home to one of the most biodiverse ecosystems in the Americas – making it one of the best places to spot iconic wildlife, including monkeys, toucans, ocelots, and even the elusive jaguar in its natural habitat.
For birdwatchers, photographers, and wildlife enthusiasts, Chan Chich is a dream destination. The surrounding rainforest teems with hundreds of bird species, making it a top choice for birdwatching in Belize.
Guests can also explore the archaeological wonders of the ancient Maya civilization, including our own on-site Archaeological Walk and guided tours to world-famous sites such as Lamanai and Xunantunich, where jungle-shrouded ruins tell stories of a rich and mysterious past.
