    Quiet park like setting with exceptional hospitality.
    Lovely park like setting. Quiet. The staff are superb, making us feel welcome. The owner and her son are shared stories and were knowledgeable about must see off the beaten path destinations. The food is simple, yet tasty. The fresh juices a must. I will definitely stay here again.

    A beautiful and peaceful property along the river with delicious food!!
    This place is a gem! The three nights we spent at Clarissa Falls were our favorite on our trip to Belize. The resort is owned and operated by Chena, who is a friendly, kind, and attentive hostess. When we arrived, Chena helped us get set up with a trip across the border to Tikal -- and she made it so easy for us! She also gave us some other tour and activity recommendations that were all fantastic. She truly cares for each of the travelers that stay at Clarissa Falls. During our stay, the food was absolutely delicious! Chena and her friendly staff hand-make all of the meals and they are served in a beautiful dining hut right on the river. Hummingbirds sped by while we ate. The property itself if beautiful! It is quiet and peaceful, away from the road and right next to the river. Chena has planted many gorgeous bushes and plants all over the property, making it colorful and clean-looking. She also has lots of chickens, ducks, and geese hanging about with her dog and at least one friendly kitty. (Our kids loved playing with them all!) Our lodgings were right along the river and were rustic. (Yes, we are in Belize, and lodgings pretty much everywhere are very basic. It's part of the charm of Belize!) The beds were pretty comfortable and we all slept well despite not having A/C. Chena has several fans in each room to keep the air circulating at night, but we really didn't need them in January. Plus, the fans drown out the sounds of the wildlife, which we wanted to hear. We would not hesitate to stay here again!
    Nothing.

    Peaceful stay in the jungle.
    Amazing jungle stay with the best hostess. The owner and host, Chena is welcoming, accomodating, informative, great company, and a tremendous cook. The property was better than expected. Situated on a river with plentiful tropical plants surrounding the area, the vibe is calm and peaceful. Our meals were served in an open air restaurant overlooking the property. Our rustic family cabin was plenty spacious with a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, a family room, and a large bedroom. The property animals were a bonus for us!
    We love Clarissa Falls!

    The staff was amazing! The property isn’t the best but the staff makes the place.
    No TV!

    Amazing experience!
    Chena is the most welcoming person. She continually goes above and beyond. She made breakfast for us every day and we were able to book excursions through her, as well.
    WiFi can be spotty, but we weren't there to be attached to our devices.

    Lovely spot, great staff, delicious food.
    This is a lovely place situated in a beautiful spot overlooking the actual Clarissa Falls. Chena, the owner, is delightful, as is all the staff we dealt with. She has built a lovely getaway in a great location near the Xunantunich Mayan site. We had breakfast and dinner, both outstanding, and some great margaritas. The cabins are very nice -- no frills but pleasant and clean. The only potential problem for some would be that the cabins are not air-conditioned. This wasn't really a problem for us -- the fans are powerful and we slept great. If you would need to spend time in them during the daytime, it might not be as pleasant, but we just slept there. There are lots of shady spots with hammocks!

    Felt like a retreat for restoring rest and good mental health
    Cabin was set in the jungle with a river running at the back . Peaceful nature setting with bird and howler monkey sounds . Close to a small village and ruins . What will be the most memorable thing is not the property but the kind , amazing owner Miss Chenna . Felt like we were at home . Always happy and smiling , nothing too much trouble .
    Insignificant detail but maybe more comfortable chairs for sitting outside cabin

    Best place to stay before visiting Tikal. Owner\staff ridiculously great.
    There were too many great things to say about this location. The owner, Chena, was extremely nice and helpful during our entire stay. The property is right next to a river (with falls and a great swimming hole) and is a preserve of an old cattle ranch still in Chena's family. The bungalows were very comfortable and clean, with many decorative touches and amenities having been made by Chena herself. The restaurant on the property is full service and tasty as well. Our stay here centered around a trip to the Tikal ruins in Guatemala - we stayed the first night at Clarissa falls resort, leaving our rental car there as well while we were away, with Chena arranging all the travel to and from Tikal using drivers she has had long and excellent service from. We stayed the final night at Clarissa falls upon return from Tikal so we could get an early start back to the coast for some snorkel time. An added bonus for this resort is that it is very close to the Xunantunich ruins for a quick visit there. Lastly I wanted to say how much we appreciated Chena's over-and-beyond assistance with our challenges that started the day before when we discovered our credit card had been hacked and disabled.
