Perched on a hillside overlooking the crystal-clear waters of the New River Lagoon, the Lamanai Outpost Lodge provides a jungle experience unlike any other. Adjacent to the spectacular Maya ruins of the Lamanai Archaeological Reserve, the lodge is one of Belize`s special places where adventure, education, and leisure come together in a magical blend.

The Lamanai Outpost Lodge`s cabanas offer rustic elegance while blending in with the lush tropical garden.

The highly praised daily menu is a blend of Belizean and North American cuisine featuring tropical fruits, vegetables, and other locally grown products.

If you must attend to business, the lodge provides fax, email and postal services and direct-dial telephones.
