Mariposa Jungle Lodge

Excellent accommodations and service. Location is amazing.

Great way to unplug and get back to nature. Cave tubing and the Mayan ruins were amazing but it was the staff that are really 5 stars

Truly a great place with wonderful staff. We rented the new Tapir cabin, which was beautiful and clean and had plenty of space for our four adults and two children. We booked several tours through the lodge that were great, including Tikal and a canoe into a nearby cave. Enjoyed the pool and hiking around the grounds, and saw howler monkeys and a huge variety of birds. But the biggest thing was that they were extremely helpful providing gluten-free, cross-contamination-free food for my son with Celiac disease. They cooked special versions of everything for him, and even provided us a packed gluten-free lunch for our Tikal tour. Traveling can be stressful with Celiac, and they made it all a breeze.

If I could give the Mariposa 10 stars I would! My family (two adults, two kids age 11 and 8) stayed in the Iguana Cabana. The lodge is beautiful. The Iguana cabana was gorgeous, with two of the bedrooms opening onto a deck that was wrapped around a tree - a very private retreat in the jungle. The grounds and pool are also beautiful and well maintained. But what makes the place really special is the people. Robe, Leo, Norma, and Solesi were incredibly kind, friendly and made us feel more like family than visitors. Norma and Solesi's food is amazing (you will not regret booking the meal plan!). Robe and Leo make incredible drinks. Vanessa and the office team also arranged 4 terrific tours for us - ATM cave, horseback riding, cave tubing, and Caracol with a stop at the Rio pools. Our guides Renan, Joe and Darwin were amazing. We wish we could come back every year!

My family had a great stay at the Mariposa Jungle Lodge. The grounds are nice. The food and drinks were great. The best part was the staff, especially Robi, Leo and Gabrien. All the activities were fantastic. Our favorites were the ATM cave, Caracol and the Butterffly garden.

Mariposa is such a special place. The hospitality and vibes are top notch. The food, drinks and service are incredible. The property is gorgeous. The ease of organized excursions with a packed lunch was such a relief, and all of our guides were wonderful. Mariposa will always have a special place in our hearts!!

Staff was amazing. Super knowledgeable and did everything they could to help us have the best stay possible. Highly recommend

We absolutely loved our stay at Mariposa’s Iguana Family Treehouse! With its slightly magical deck we spotted toucans and listened to howler monkeys. We meandered on the trails, used the yoga deck, and enjoyed the pool and family foosball challenges. The staff doted on us and surpassed expectations, teaching us about the rich cultural history and organizing our transports and excursions. Robelvi and Luis were attentive to dietary restrictions and simply charming while serving delicious meals under the outdoor lights. My family loved everything about Mariposa!

Everything was wonderful. The only critique would be the restaurant. The portion sizes were very small and the food price was high, but it was great food! Other than that, amazing accomodations!
