The guest experience

9.1out of 10
240 verified reviews

Loved most

  • Exceptional, attentive staff
  • Beautiful grounds and gardens
  • Comfortable, luxurious rooms and beds
  • Very clean and well maintained
  • Strong on-service touches (nightly treats, attentive turnover)
  • Pleasant pools/plunge pool and organic garden

Worth knowing — Tours and on-site activities priced much higher than in town · Perceived poor value for some meals and included breakfast · Pool is small and can be cool · Not walkable to shops/town; limited nearby stores · Missing some in-room conveniences (hairdryer, USB outlets) · Limited lunch/restaurant options (single restaurant)

How guests scored the stay

  • Service10.0

    Staff repeatedly described as exceptional, friendly, attentive and accommodating; frequent mentions of caring, respectful service and evening turnover.

  • Overall Experience10.0

    Majority of reviews call the stay wonderful/heavenly with gorgeous grounds and highly recommended service — overall very positive guest experience.

  • Cleanliness9.9

    Consistently praised as very clean and well maintained across multiple reviews.

  • Room Quality9.9

    Rooms described as comfortable and luxurious with large beds, good amenities (kettle, mini-fridge, toiletries) and nicely appointed villas; a few missing conveniences (no hairdryer, no USB outlets).

  • Amenities8.8

    Lovely grounds, gardens and plunge pools; organic garden and pleasant property amenities praised, though the pool is small (and sometimes cool) and overall resort is intimate rather than extensive.

  • Location8.7

    Beautiful grounds and convenient by car (close to border, ~10 minutes to San Ignacio); not walkable to shops/town for most guests.

  • Food and Beverage8.3

    Mixed feedback: many praise the restaurant and spectacular meals, but others call meal portions/quality mediocre for the price and note the included breakfast options are very small or disappointing.

  • Value for Money7.2

    Multiple comments that tours and meal prices are overpriced (hotel tours much more expensive than town), with added service/government fees; several guests felt the overall value was lacking.

    “The staff was super friendly and caring. Very attentive and respectful. The room had a very big bed, felt very luxurious. They provided a kettle, a mini fridge, plenty of toiletries, drinking water, and a delicious treat every night, that was a super nice touch. They do an evening turnover too. The pool temp. was 87 degrees, a bit too cold for me, it is a very small pool, just to refresh. The restaurant was great, even though the prices are not cheap, the food was always spectacular. The included breakfast had two options, one basket of bread and a healthy one. The portions are very small but I think the Healthy option was the best. No buffet style. The hotel has very luxurious villas too, I stayed in a regular room. We chose this hotel because we wanted to go to the Guatemalan Mayan Ruins, and from here it was about 3 hours, but the border is just 10 minutes away.”

  • Secluded Villa, Private Pool, and Friendly Staff Made Our Visit Great

    “We had a great time at Ka’ana. The two bedroom villa was beautiful and perfect for a family of 4 or 5. The kids loved the private pool. The highlights included our tour guides, Brandon and Eddie, who made sure we enjoyed our canoeing and hike through Mayan ruins. Freddie made sure the Super Bowl was streaming at the lounge. The hotel staff arranged all our transportation, which made the trip care-free. The property felt clean and secluded, and is located a close drive from several popular tourist attractions. They’re building 4 or 5 new villas that look like they’ll be spectacular. As a bonus, we strolled through their lush garden.”

  • Romantic Room in Beautiful Belize

    10/10

    “We stayed here for our 20th wedding anniversary and had a lovely time. The staff were all very kind and attentive. The grounds were beautiful with lots of gorgeous plants. We had a great time chilling at the bar. The bartender Ismael made great drinks and we had interesting conversations about Belize, bird watching, and his life. He really made us feel like welcome friends. All of the food we ordered at the bar/restaurant and through room service was fresh and tasty. Our masseuses were both very talented and the abdominal massage was uniquely tension relieving. I've never had a massage that spent much time on that area. I recommend it, if you're a tense person like me. The room was beautiful. We had the one on the end, so it felt more private, which was nice. We came in the winter, so it was a little too cold to use the public pool, but our plunge pool was warm enough to use one day that we stayed, and that was a lovely experience. The outdoor shower is lovely, too. There were many gorgeous flowers in the garden, and it was lovely and peaceful to sit outside reading. We saw a hummingbird, a mot mot, and many beautiful butterflies from the comfort of our own room. The bathroom was spacious, and both indoor and outdoor showers had plenty of hot water and good water pressure. The bed was comfy and the room was nice and quiet, so we both slept well. The room was very clean, and the nightly turn down treats were delicious. It has been a dream of ours to visit Belize for years. Thank you so much to the wonderful staff at Ka'ana for making our trip special and for helping us make memories that we will cherish. Belize is a beautiful country with kind people, and we hope we get to visit again soon.”

    “My wife and I stayed in a suite with the splash pool to celebrate our anniversary, and the experience was 'Awesome'. The resort was peaceful, quiet, and exactly what we needed. Huge shoutout to Christian and the rest of the team — they made us feel genuinely welcomed and made our anniversary night feel truly special. The Mayan Ruins, and Big Rock Water Falls are a must see. Highly recommended!”

  • Was just ok

    “I wanted to love this resort more than I did. It was branded as a very luxurious experience on the website, but I thought it was a little lackluster in person. The pool, for example, was unheated and quite cold even in the heat because it was hidden in a grove of trees. It was also quite small. The restaurant was also very expensive, and quite honestly I found the food to be a little bland, especially the $35 fish. My husband liked his meal, but I was underwhelmed. The room was okay, but we only had a queen bed so felt quite squished, even though it was spacious enough to fit a larger bed. I will say, the staff were friendly, and even helped us arrange a pickup with our tour group for the next day so we didn’t have to get a taxi (thanks Ethan!). All that to say, I probably wouldn’t return.”

  • Photo your restaurant bills- they added$

    “It’s nice enough, tho some of the ‘jungle’ magic is lost due to loud truck noise from adjacent highway. The food is good. I took a photo of restaurant bills as I had $ credit from booking with American Express Hotel collection. So when they printed out the stay receipt, not once, but for both dinner meals, $ had been added to the tip. I believe they advertise organic garden tours, but it’s closed/area under construction. My room was fine, though you are supposed to get a category upgrade, which didn’t happen. Pool is somewhat small, especially compared to Itz’ana sister property. Great turn down service, french press, kettle and mini fridge with room to store your own items”

  • This Is How a Resort Should Be Run

    “Ka’ana Resort is truly first-class. The property is beautiful, the rooms are extremely comfortable, and the attention to detail really stands out. Housekeeping leaves fresh baked treats daily, which was such a thoughtful surprise. The front desk is always responsive and seamlessly arranged two tours plus rides to town and back, making everything effortless. Chef Cesar Rodriguez is exceptional—be sure to ask for his signature ceviche, one of the best dishes we had in Belize. And Ismael Hernandez is a bartender extraordinaire, serving up the best mojitos we’ve ever had. From the service to the atmosphere, Ka’ana left a lasting impression. We highly recommend this resort to anyone visiting the San Ignacio area.”

  • Great experience, friendly staff! Food was great!

    “The staff and amenities were all great! The food was outstanding and they even offer complimentary fireside shmoores every night. The rooms were well kept and surprisingly, for a hotel literally in the jungle, there were little to no bugs anywhere in our room. An occasional Mosquito but that’s it! The pool is nice and the only drawback is that they don’t have a gym. I would definitely recommend couples stay there if they are looking for a nice, quiet getaway in the jungle of Belize!”
