Book Rancho Dolores hotels

It is a lovely property, reasonably priced with full service restaurant, bar and pool. My room was comfortable and large, staff was really nice, great service. Set on a river and you can experience the howler monkeys. Will come back as it is close enough to the airport for early departures or late arrivals. Can handle large groups but I came here solo, perfectly safe!

At only a few minutes from the airport this place is perfect to start or end your trip on the mainland if you plan to visit other areas and want the ease of travel. Once inside the complex, you truly feel as if you are in a resort- the grounds, the pool, the entire space is carefully thought out to inspire vacation vibes. Hosts are incredible as was Felipe who all ensured my friends and I had everything we needed! Highly recommend!

Beautiful safe place near the airport.

I am glad I was able to end my vacation at the gecko bungalow. Michelle made sure that everything was taken care of with the multiple shuttles to and from the airport. The bungalow was an oasis and I was very glad to get to experience it with my first trip to Belize. Michelle and Scott made it feel like another home away from home. Definitely looking forward to coming back! 😀

Great check in

My young adult son, myself and our little dog loved our stay here: To relax and dream, hammock rocked on the wraparound deck to soothing jungle sounds and meditate on the amazing wildlife while overlooking the Belize River was a heavenly respite, a true gem, cozy and quaint, in the jungle. A bevy of fans keep you cool. As Shanna and Kenny were under the weather, a driver named Ernesto picked us up at the airport, took us out for a delicious roadside lunch, grocery shopping and then to the Howler House. Shanna is excellent at communicating and arranging tours and a flight via Tropic Air to Placencia, our next stop. Ernesto drove us to our tours: We loved the Baboon Sanctuary and the cave tubing we ventured on was exciting and relaxing. Ernesto is friendly, helpful, professional and informative. The highlight of the Howler House is how secluded it is in the jungle. However, 3 other homes are being built on the property. The homes are spaced far enough apart to keep some privacy, but the seclusion will be lost. The other special feature of the Howler House: an incredible canoe ride. No crowd of homes alongside the River. Just wild jungle. We were greeted by a luminous green flying object come dusk on the deck: a glowing click beetle. So enchanting. We had never seen one before. And as we awoke to leave on our too short 2 night stay, 4 Howler Monkeys came onto the deck! One ate from our hands. Note: they love bananas not grapes.This was the best goodbye gift!
