The Lodge at Big Falls

The Lodge at Big Falls, close to Punta Gorda, in Toledo, southern Belize, is the district’s premier inland resort. Vacation packages offer guests easy access to our natural wonders, archaeological treasures and a host of adventures. Our packages include eco-tours which will introduce you to the local Mayan people and culture, Mayan archaeology and the natural history of the area. Our birding packages offer you a variety of habitats and an amazing range of resident and visiting species.

If you are looking for a southern Belize adventure vacation then we have jungle trekking, caving, river kayaking and snorkeling, fishing and manatee watching on the offshore cayes. The Lodge offers elegant accommodation, fine food and drink and relaxation in a peaceful riverside setting. An unforgettable holiday experience.

The Lodge at Big Falls is situated on the banks of the Rio Grande river in Belize's southern Toledo District. The property is located on a meander of the river with almost a mile of river frontage. There are views towards the Maya Mountains to the north west while the south eastern bank faces the village of Big Falls where villagers come down to the riverside to wash their clothes and bathe.

The Lodge has many on-site activities. Guests enjoy a game of table tennis on the veranda after a day’s tour. The new swimming pool and kayaks and inner tubes on the river ensure that guests are always able to stay cool. For self-guided tours of Big Falls and its neighborhood our mountain bikes are also available for guests’ use.

There is a Resource Centre where guests can consult a core collection of books covering birding, butterflies, the fauna and flora of Belize, Mayan archaeology and travel and touring within Belize. The resource centre allows guest to read more about the places, people, flora and fauna they may have seen during the day's excursions and develop their knowledge and understanding of Belize, and provides researchers and educationalists a quiet area to combine both work and pleasure during they stay at the lodge.
