PAID CONTENT FOR THE LODGE AT JAGUAR REEF
The Lodge at Jaguar Reef HOPKINS, BELIZE
Tucked away in the quaint fishing village of Hopkins on the southern coast of Belize, The Lodge at Jaguar Reef makes for the perfect hideaway from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The property presents a unique opportunity for the curious traveller to explore mind-blowing culture, cuisine and 900 feet of golden beaches. The highlights of Jaguar Reef’s suites include
local art pieces, thoughtfully crafted mahogany furniture, softly lit hanging wicker baskets and private plunge pools. The food at onsite restaurant the Paddle House
is a combination of Belizean flavours, inspired by the local fishing community and blended with US classics. One of the unmissable dishes is the beef tenderloin seared in tropical flavours and drizzled in a craboo fruit reduction. The Big Dock Ceviche Bar is a two-storey bar
that sits over the ocean. Here, guests can choose to lounge on day beds while sipping on blends and cocktails crafted with local ingredients. The second floor is ideal for those hoping to spot a manatee while gazing upon the deep blues of the Caribbean
sea and snacking on the bar’s namesake — a classic ceviche served up with cassava chips. The lodge carries a strong presence of the
Garifuna culture that surrounds it. Travellers can enjoy Garifuna cooking classes, which bring with it flavour and history. The lodge also offers Garifuna drumming classes. There’s still more to discover with an onsite
concierge team fully available for adventure planning. Guests can snorkel alongside the world’s second largest living barrier reef with the possibility of swimming alongside stingrays and sea turtles. With its sister resort, The Rainforest Lodge at Sleeping Giant, located inland, guests also have exclusive access to the resort’s Maya Ceremonial Cave. The cave offers an intimate look into the past lives of the Maya civilization through pottery, tools and even skeletal remains. Many travellers opt to experience both reef and rainforest when visiting Belize by splitting their stay between The Lodge at Jaguar Reef and The Rainforest Lodge at Sleeping Giant, which is in the Maya Mountains, only a 45-minute drive away.
