Pros:

RENT A CAR! This resort is on top of a very large hill and without our car we would’ve needed a taxi to get back up everytime. Would definitely come back. San Ignacio is a very vibrant town with lots to do. This resort was very accommodating to us during our stay. Very clean and well kept. The landscape was beautiful especially for a night walk. The staff was always at our service for anything we needed.

In real need of repairs.
Pros:

The staff at both the lodge and restaurant are OUTSTANDING. The logde itself is in real need of repairs. Our first room was under the restaurant/bar, DO NOT ACCEPT this loud room. Music begins at 6:30am, the restaurant doesn't stop serving until 9pm. We were moved to a cabin with a much better noise level. Things are just falling apart, door lock broke, coffee pot broke, the shower head was horrible. It wasn't a terrible stay, if the San Ignacio hotel is available I would recommend that choice.

Pros:

We loved our stay at Falling Leaves Lodge. The staff of this place and their willingness to help was a key factor. When my bag was delayed and then I get the bag with wet mildew smelling clothes, the staff immediately did a laundry load for me and took care of it. This was after hours and within just two hours. I could not have been more thankful. They arranged tours, called cabs and even walked my bags to another hotel. Overall, quiet and clean property. It’s not updated but because it’s not heavily used like other places, it’s clean. I would use it again as a home base in the future.

Pros:

The property management and staff went out of their way to make us comfortable. We arrived late due to a delayed flight and they were very accommodating staying open to check us in. They also ordered food for us from the restaurant which was closing. The feel was very authentic with trees and numerous separate spaces. Our luggage was did not arrive until our third day. They took care of it and had it delivered as soon as it arrived. Would definitely stay here again

Super Cute Property with Incredible Staff
Pros:

I adored my stay here and wish I could have stayed longer. First, the staff are AMAZING. So warm, so helpful, so lovely. I am someone who always has a million questions and does silly things like not know how to lock my door-- they were there for all of it with a smiling face. 11/10 staff experience here.
Second, the property is so cute! All the nature around the accommodation is awesome. I was told you can sometimes see Toucans in the front tree! While I didn't witness them, if you go be on the lookout :)
Third, the location. It is *right* by one the Mayan ruin sites, which makes for a lovely morning adventure (before all the crowds rush in). I will say that this location is at the top of a giant hill.... so there is a trade off of having the peace and quiet/nature with the amenities of being directly in town. I ended up walking down the hill (into downtown) and then taking a taxi ($5 USD) back up one night, and then walked the other times.
I would absolutely stay here again. I was traveling as a solo female traveler and had not one issue. Highly recommend.

Pros:

Falling Leaves Lodge is a beautiful and peaceful place to stay. Our cabana was clean and spacious with a large bathroom and nice covered patio. The pool area was lovely and at times we had it all to ourselves. It felt like we were in the middle of the jungle but town was just a 10 minute walk away and the ruins were even closer. We were also able to get picked up for our cave tubing excursion right at the hotel.
We had breakfast at the restaurant all three days of our stay and it was excellent with great service.
If I return to San Ignacio, (which I hope I do!) I would definitely stay here again.

San Ignacio Jungle Gem
Pros:

Some of the friendliest and most helpful hotel staff I have experienced. Paula greeted me at my late arrival and made sure I had everything I needed both at check in and throughout my stay, including some great excursions. The ever present bar and restaurant crew Elias and Harim were always there with recommendations and friendly conversation. Be it I had to leave early for a tour or needed advice on bars to visit while in town. Rangel, Kevin, Maria and Helen were busy keeping the room clean and the property well kept. If you visit be sure to go see the turtles in the wishing well and tell them hi.
