Blancaneaux

Cayo District

Tucked away in a pocket of the Maya Mountains, Francis Ford Coppola’s Blancaneaux Lodge is a very special collection of villas, cabanas and cottages where waterfalls tumble into turquoise pools above the jungle canopy.  Its remote mountain setting makes it a perfect place to relax, rejuvenate and get back in touch with nature.  Ford Coppola first bought the place because it reminded him of his time filming Apocolypse Now in the jungle, then he started inviting his friends down and holding writing retreats, before making it his first of three exquisite resorts in the region.

During your stay here, explore the ancient civilisation of the Maya which still endures on your doorstep, with myriad sacred sites throughout this very special region. From the ceremonial caves along the white-water rivers of the Mountain Pine Ridge Reserve to stalactite caverns and the vast ruins of Caracol, deep within the lush rainforest, Blancaneaux is your window onto a world of natural and archaeological wonders.

With its 2 highly acclaimed restaurants, luxurious spa, and some of the most gracious and experienced staff in all of Belize, Blancaneaux is one of our favorite places to stay in all of Belize.
