Pros:

We loved the scenery, staying in a cabin overlooking the river and nature was really nice. The birds and howler monkeys gave a unique ‘jungle feelling’. The food was really tasty (we enjoyed the fact that they had breakfast and dinner options for vegetarians). We selected this particular resort for the outdoor jacuzzi which was a nice touch to the suite.

However, we didn’t like the fact the jacuzzi did not remain hot. The water kept going cold so we only enjoyed one night in the jacuzzi. Also, the food was a bit overpriced for a resort that is within the range to easily locate ingredients and products for them to prepare the food. The prices were in line with private Caye resort prices but the private cayes need to outsource their ingredients and food products which is understandable, this inland resort does not. We’ve stayed at many luxury resorts and this one is definitely on the pricier side and in my opinion it is not a luxury resort.

Also, the flies were a problem only at night time because the house keeper left the door open while she was cleaning, so the flies were bothersome in the night and disturbed our sleep.

However, it was an overall great stay. We would definitely be back sometime in the future.

Pros:

Dream Valley has beautiful, well-maintained grounds. Our cabin was spotless, exactly as described, with a comfy bed and excellent hot showers. Front desk staff were friendly and helpful.

That said, a few things fell short. No ice machine means no ice outside of bar hours, and water provided wasn’t cold — not ideal in the heat. The access road is rough, requiring 4WD when raining. A bus got stuck before our arrival, leaving deep, muddy trenches. Even with AWD, getting in and out was nerve-wracking enough that we considered leaving.

The restaurant was disappointing. The menu was very limited, especially for vegetarians, (something we inquired about prior to booking & were told they could accommodate) and overpriced. Service was inattentive — even when we were the only table, our waitress barely checked on us, more focused on her phone than guests. In a setting like that, you’d expect a little more attention, at the very least keeping water glasses filled in a humid climate.

Dream Valley has potential, but until the road is improved, amenities like ice are added, and dining service is addressed, it’s hard to fully recommend.

Pros:

Wow! Is all that really can be said. The natural beauty of this hotel are what other places spend thousands of dollars trying to recreate. Located on the river banks with nothing else in sight, thoughtfully manicured grounds giving way to the Belizean jungle. You truly can feel away from it all. The hotel offers a lot to do on-site as well canoeing on the river, mini golf, a swimming pool, spa services, hikes around the property and a good restaurant with bar. And they can also set you up for a tour to any one attractions in the area. The staff goes out of their to meet the needs of their guests. We stayed in the Owner's Suite on the far end of all the bungalows with the jetted tub on the balcony style patio overlooking the river. Totally private with a wide open view of the river and nothing else but nature to look. Amazing, highly recommend.

Dream valley was incredible. Stayes here for 3 nights, to explore the jungle of Belize and do a few tours. The staff was absolutely incredible and there whenever we needed them. The room was outstanding and more than we could have asked for. Food and drinks were incredible. 10 out of 10

Pros:

the location was very secluded and lovely. The two pools were a very nice amenity. It was easy to get luggage in and out of the rooms. The air conditioning was awesome and the Wi-Fi was really fast and consistent.
One thing I was disappointed about was the lack of hooks or bars for towels (or wet swimsuits, etc.)anywhere in the room or bathroom. We were in the Treehouse room, so I am not sure if the other rooms had towel racks/hooks.
Other than that, our stay was perfect!

Pros:

Beautiful property and river view, welcoming and friendly staff. Coco the dog was a welcoming presence! Road construction, less chlorine in the pool and fixing the clogged shower would make it 5 stars.

Pros:

Dream Valley was beautiful. Stayed in a King room on the river and watched the parrots in the morning and listened to the howler monkeys. We would take a dip in the pool after a full day of activities. Anderson was awesome:). The only thing they could not accommodate us with was a massage. I guess you need to book way in advance. But not a deal breaker. We would definitely go back.

Pros:

Terrible communication, directions were a list of prices for shuttles to different places. We drove two miles down a dirt road to a gate that looked on the map to be the place completely blind and without connection… calls were not answered, messages were not returned. We had to find alternative accommodation last minute at 7PM on Election Day.

Pros:

Our "cabin" was beautiful! It was a large room with a sitting area and very comfortable bed! The howler monkeys usually sounded a couple times a day. Lovely location on the river and the pools were very refreshing. Carmen was a great host and very attentive. Definitely recommend!

Pros:

First night was interrupted by next door neighbour blasting music. Staff dealt with it effectively once we let them know. Wall between the rooms are not sound proof.

Beds were very comfortable and linens clean.
Accommodations were made for dietary needs and food overall was good.

After first night, things became much quieter and peaceful even though the resort was full (as described by staff). Service was excellent.
Staff were kind and eager to please.

With respect to the grounds, saw that hedges needed some trimming and that would have made things look very well-maintained but overall good rating.

Pros:

Pros: The setting of this lodge is beautiful; right on the Belize river. We heard so many birds at this resort, and even howler monkeys in the morning and evening. It's an extremely peaceful place, and a lovely garden surrounded by nature.

Cons: Seemed a bit run-down, electricity kept going out, it's quite isolated and is a long way from any other activities, the restaurant food was terrible but being so far away it's the only option. It was a good 'home base' for use to be away from civilization, but we should've brought our own food. The road to the property is also pretty unkempt, so a 4x4 is recommended especially during rainy season.
