Cotton Tree Lodge

Crafted from local hardwoods and thatched in traditional Mayan style, Cotton Tree Lodge gives guests a chance to experience an authentic jungle lodge. Here you will have the opportunity to listen to Howler Monkeys and parrots-all from the comfort of a hammock. No sirens, no sounds of traffic, no loud music blaring from just down the street. Just the jungle. And the monkeys, and birds-and don’t forget the iguanas! Located 5 miles from the nearest paved road. Nestled in the foothills of the Maya Mountains. Set next to the slow moving Moho River. This is where you can unwind.

We have no televisions at the resort. There are no radios in the cabanas. In fact, there aren’t many clocks on the property. Limited cell phone coverage (only in the main lodge) and no wifi in the rooms. If you are someone that always needs to be plugged in, we probably aren’t your best choice. But if you are looking for somewhere to get away from it all and just relax in the jungle and enjoy a Belizean Adventure-we might be just what you are looking for.

The Restaurant

We raise free range chickens for eggs and meat, goats for milk, cheese, and meat; and are starting to raise pigs as we already cure our own bacon. We also source catfish and snook just downriver from the lodge.

In addition, we feature wild harvested edibles from the rainforest such as jippi jappa, cohune cabbage (heart of palm), and many others.

We try to utilize as much as we can from our own farm and nearby farms. The majority of what we serve is sourced from within 10 miles of the lodge. We are committed to maintaining a direct connection to where our food is coming from and how it is grown/raised.
