Fodor's Review:

The low gurgle of nearby Mopan River rapids is the first and last sound of the day at Clarissa Falls Resort. Warm and friendly owner Chena Galvez has spent her life on a cattle ranch here, on a rolling 800-acre expanse of grassy pasture. Over the years Chena and family have built a small colony of homey thatch cabañas. Prices are a little high considering the basic nature of the accommodations, but you're also paying for the idyllic setting. If you're on a tight budget, there's camping (BZ$15 per person) and, for students only, rooms in a bunkhouse and three meals daily for BZ$90. A shuttle to and from the international airport near Belize City is available for BZ$180 one way for up to four persons. Pros: Quiet, pastoral riverside setting; you'll want to hug the owner. Cons: Resort is on a ranch and not in a true jungle setting.

Hotel Details: 11 cabañas, 1 bunkhouse with 10 beds
In-room: no phone, no TV.
In-hotel: restaurant, laundry service.
Credit Cards: MC, V
