A beautiful and adventurous gem in the jungle

Caves Branch is a beautiful place to stay, in the jungle surrounded by flowers, trees, and native birds. We (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed in one of the Jungle Suites, separated from other suites by trees; very private. It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and hear the birds singing, or listen to the distant sound of howler monkeys at night. There is a small botanical garden on-site, free kayaks that you can borrow to paddle on the river, and just walking the paths is lovely. The foods was incredible. A breakfast buffet with fresh fruit, omelet station, and pastries/pancakes every morning, a different 3-course dinner every night. We have dietary restrictions (1 lactose intolerant person, 2 gluten intolerant people) and we had plenty to eat. Vegetarians also have options, and I think vegans would do ok as well, though with less variety. You'd only be really restricted if you have multiple requirements, e.g. vegan AND gluten free. We did not do the tours the resort offers but heard great things about them from other guests. The only thing I'll note is that it is a combination of luxurious and rustic, as noted on the Caves Branch home website (though not necessarily on Hotels.com). The cabanas have screen walls (with curtains all around that can be closed for privacy), and some large bugs did get inside. There is an AC unit directly over the queen bed that will cool the bed area but not the whole cabin (bc of the screen walls). We loved it but it's not for everyone.

Ian Anderson's cave review

Firstly the Pros. The resort looks amazing, great scenery and surroundings. They definitely try to create an experience. The food is fresh and a lot of care and attention is given to it, the portions are also good. Swimming pools is nice and it is next to a river which you can swim in or kayak if weather permits The cons. Although the service is great when it works, it is inconsistent, they don't always respond quickly. They muddled my son's birthday cake and gave us the wrong cake which got mixed up with a couples anniversary cake, this was a massive blunder and could not be rectified. The pricing of the food is not clear and transparent, sometimes it's a buffet and sometime a fixed menu but the pricing is not clearly communicated. The onsite activities are over priced especially when you include resort fees on top. You could book these directly for cheaper if you have a car Sometimes it feels they pester you with booking activities There is no wifi in the rooms which is not great when it rains as you are mostly stuck in your room The rooms don't have windows instead they have mosquito nets, so if it gets really hot the AC in the room is not effective

We had an incredible experience at Caves Branch! It was a highlight of our trip :) The property is beautiful, make sure to tour the botanical gardens! We loved the cave waterfall adventure, wished we stayed longer to do all the activities. The pool and river are an excellent touch and fun to explore. The staff and food were unreal. Highly recommend this place!
Gorgeous rooms.

So peaceful surrounded by nature

I can’t say enough good things about this place! The service, the food, the grounds, the adventures! We had an amazing 3 night stay here and felt so comfortable surrounded by nature. It is absolutely beautiful but what really makes this place are the people. Every single person we encountered was kind and hospitable. There were a lot of young children there during spring break and my son loved having others to play with and everyone was so patient and accepting. We loved how it felt so homey have dinner all together every night and loved every minute of our stay.

We really enjoyed our Caves Branch stay. The staff were all exceptional and the ease of the meals (family style buffet) and tours made decision making really easy. Thanks to Arnold and Kenry for our river cave tubing tour. We learned a lot about Mayan history and Arnold was extremely patient with our slow moving family. Kenry helped my son jump into the river at the end of the tour. Cali at the bar was lovely as well, and the restaurant staff all referred to my daughter by name. I do think the friendliness and warmth of the staff sets this resort apart. My son loved the mini baguettes! Lastly, jungle critters are part of the experience and i appreciated the staff politely escorting them out of our cabana without mocking us.
