Mahogany Hall Luxury Boutique Resort

This property is very small and charming. Situated on the river it’s so calming and lovely. We ate dinner and breakfast and the food was wonderful. The people were great and service top notch. The room was sweltering on the top floor with vaulted ceilings. There was air conditioning but it wasn’t turned on ahead of time in anticipation of guests. It took many hours for the room to become comfortable. It was sweltering outside and the room was hotter. I’m sure there were other rooms that could fit 3 adults that wouldn’t have been so hot or at least turn on the AC ahead of time. Finally, although there were very few guests the manager didn’t greet us upon arrival, departure, or anytime. As beautiful as it was, I wouldn’t stay here again.

Mahogany Hall was one of the best parts of our entire 16-day trip to Belize!! The rooms we booked were very comfortable and clean with some Beautiful Welcoming touches and Spa like Zen, they included everything we needed. It was great to open the windows and hear the animals/birds on one side and the sounds of the river on the other side, it was so calming and peaceful (no issues with bugs/mosquitos). Being on the Mopan River made for Amazing Ambience [whether that was enjoying the balconies, exploring the grounds/area, enjoying wonderful meals in the open-air cafe/dining area (all the meals were great, but the breakfasts were excellent), enjoying beverages/snacks at the bar, on the deck, in the hammocks or by the pool]. Even though there is a pool, we really enjoyed swimming and cooling off in the clear refreshing waters of the Mopan. It was a special treat to swim with, meet, get to know and hear about hidden gems from the friendly locals/families who frequent the river area on weekends/holidays (It is public access along waterways in Belize. If the public access is a concern, it shouldn't be as it quiets right down at dusk)! This is a Boutique hotel with a very small number of rooms where you can be as social as you choose with the other guests (we met some amazing people from all over the world sharing stories of adventures, travel tips/tricks and even sharing rides and meals in San Ignacio). Marsha and her Team were Amazing and went out of their way to make sure our trip was Amazing!! They were available in person and on WhatsApp to guide/help us, they booked taxi's, shuttles and excursions (with local long-term people/companies they are comfortable with) and even checked in on us and making sure we made it safely to our next destination and enjoyed the rest of our trip. We loved getting to know Marsha and her entire Team and left Mahogany Halls feeling like Family!! We will definitely be back!!

Can’t say enough good about this treasure in the jungle! Hand made beautiful furnishings, fresh tropical flowers in each room. Flower petals on the bed. Delicious breakfasts! Marsha and staff were the icing on the cake❤️ So warm and friendly and sincere. Felt very safe. Sad to wave good bye.

We showed up from a recommendation of a local, we walked in at 1:30 PM. The bartender said they had no food so we said we would like to order a drink. He said OK and walked away and helped somebody else for 20 minutes. We still sat there he looked at us occasionally but never asked for our order.. So we had enough. We know how to be treated because we own restaurants this GUY and the whole staff were horrible. The place looked like it had a lot of potential but the service and congeniality was the worst I have ever experienced!!!! For one they need to get their act together. The bartender and whatever else he did needs to be fired!! There was a beautiful lawn by the river not one chair or lounge chair or anything down there! It was like it was the off-season for them, but it was the end of February 2025 that’s peak season!! I will never go back there!

Mahogany Hall is a small facility with only eight rooms. Because of the small size, the staff is able to give personal attention to every guest. We talked to Marsha, Jose, and Amelie every day. We knew each other by name and over the week we were there, they learned our preferences. This would never happen at a mega resort. When we were first planning this vacation, we considered staying in Belize City and then booking tours from there. When learned of San Ignacio, we decided it would be a better "home base" for our vacation. This was an excellent decision. While we thought of this location as San Ignacio, Mahogany Hall is actually a couple miles away in the small village of Bullet Tree Falls. We found the village charming and the residents to be very friendly. One day, we walked over to a nearby football pitch and watched the kids practice their skills. Initially, the kids did not know what to make of these two strangers watching their practice but they quickly got used to us and they too were very friendly. To help simplify our trip, Marsha (Mahogany Hall manager) booked all of our tours for us through Edwin's Belize Tours. Most of the tours were private tours and fully customizable. The ATM tour cannot be a private tour due to government restrictions. We were okay with that because we like to meet new people. We had breakfast and dinner at Mahogany Hall every day. We loved their food. There are also good options in San Ignacio which is a short taxi ride away. I would highly recommend Mahogany Hall to anyone traveling to Belize. The staff is fantastic and there are plenty of activities to keep you busy. If you prefer to relax, the sound of the river is addicting.

My husband and I loved the place and had dinner every night during our stay. The location is remote and you will need a taxi every time to go to the city (12 minutes away) $20 belizian. Pool is cold and refreshing and service is great. Very romantic spot. The room has a strong wood smell. Would come back.
