About this property

Orchid Bay Resort is set directly on Orchid Bay Beach, in a secluded area of Corozal Bay. It offers an outdoor pool, a bar-restaurant and stylish bungalows with well-equipped kitchens. Each bungalow at the Orchid Bay Resort features elegant wooden furniture and a modern bathroom with a shower. All bungalows offer free Wi-Fi, a TV and a DVD player. Some also have sea views. Orchid Bay Resort is a 40-minute drive from Corozal town and a 1-hour drive from the Belize Free Zone and the Mexican border. Belize City is around 2 hours away. Free parking is available on site. Under 2 hours’ drive from Belize International Airport (BZE) via the new superhighway, Orchid Bay Resort is nestled in a marine sanctuary, set against the emerald green, seaweed-free waters of the Caribbean Sea. The 25-room resort offers 7 miles of pristine coastline and lush gardens, home to over 200 species of wild orchids and 270 species of birds, making it a true haven for nature lovers. Explore the most isolated and vibrant section of the Belize Barrier Reef, just offshore. Orchid Bay is also the gateway to the world-renowned Lamanai Maya ruins. For those seeking adventure, the surrounding area offers exceptional opportunities to see wild manatees, dolphins, monkeys, and crocodiles. Enjoy snorkelling, fishing, cave tubing, and more. The popular beach bar and restaurant offers affordable, farm-to-table dishes, serving everything from American classics to charcoal-grilled Hog Fish, Lobster, and Conch. The accommodations include Mayan-inspired thatched oceanfront and garden cabanas or modern waterfront condos with patios.
