Belize Guest Comments - Scott and Tanya from Winston-Salem, North Caroline, USA



The Jungle Dome will always be special in our memories for many reasons:


  •  Friendly staff and excellent food! (Loved the fresh orange juice and the fry jacks for breakfast) 
  • Clean and comfortable room (Loved the fridge and coffee maker) 
  • Beautiful surroundings and wonderful sounds of the jungle (Orange trees, flowers, howler monkeys, horses galloping, and birds, plus roosters too!) 
  • Refreshing pool and relaxing hammocks…aahhhh! 
  • Daytrips to the ruins, cave tubing with David, the Blue Hole to swim, and driving on the beautiful Hummingbird Highway. 
  • Also, the visit to Iguana Conservation Project in San Ignacio, was lots of fun (I think I’ve already taken over 1000 photos in three days)

·         Most importantly, the Jungle Dome will be forever in our memory, because this us where we celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary. 

Thanks for sharing your piece of paradise in Belize, that we plan on sharing with our own friends and family through stories, pictures, and memories. 

Best wishes for the future,

Scott & Tonya Craver
Winston-Salem, NC, USA. July 2013
