It’s as serene an escape as you want it to be; the adults-only waterfall-view rooms and cabanas are the ones to get if you can, but there’s no place on the property that’s anything less than spectacular.

Hotels Own Introduction
An Off-Grid Jungle Sanctuary
Gaïa Riverlodge is one of Belize’s most distinctive jungle retreats, offering a secluded and sustainable escape for nature lovers and adventure seekers. Set above the spectacular Five Sisters Waterfalls, this award-winning eco-lodge is powered by hydroelectricity and deeply inspired by local culture, delivering an authentic off-the-grid experience in the heart of the rainforest.
Eco-Luxury Immersed in Nature
Designed to blend seamlessly with its surroundings, Gaïa invites guests to slow down and reconnect—with nature, with culture, and with themselves. Whether hiking through lush rainforest trails, discovering ancient Maya sites, or simply unwinding to the sounds of rushing water, every moment is shaped by Belize’s wild beauty.
Cabanas with a View
Sixteen thatched-roof cabanas and suites are thoughtfully crafted from Belizean hardwoods and palmetto walls, offering sweeping views of jungle canopy, river, mountains, or cascading waterfalls. Each space is a tranquil refuge that brings the outdoors in, without sacrificing comfort.
Belizean Flavours Above the Falls
Perched high above the Five Sisters Waterfalls, the open-air restaurant and cocktail lounge showcases fresh, vibrant Belizean cuisine made with ingredients harvested from the on-site organic garden. From sunrise breakfasts to relaxed lunches and sunset cocktails, every meal is paired with breathtaking views and reflects the country’s rich culture, history, and biodiversity.
Adventure at Your Own Pace
Gaïa is the ideal base for exploring the Belizean jungle. Spend your days hiking beneath towering pines, swimming in crystal-clear waterfalls, visiting ancient Maya ruins, or stargazing beside a crackling campfire. Every experience is an invitation to reconnect with the land—and your sense of wonder.
