Surrounded by nothing but lush greenery and the open sky above, the on site experiences at this Muy’Ono Resort alone are enough to help anyone destress.
But if that’s not enough, Copal Tree Lodge also offers cultural and adventure experiences that allow guests to immerse themselves in all that is Belize. Whether it’s visiting the roaring Rio Blanco Falls or stepping back in time at Nim Li Punit, guests get to explore all that this vibrant Caribbean nation has to offer.
