Treetops Guesthouse

Treetops Guesthouse Review

Austrian-born owner Doris Creasey brings international flair and Teutonic cleanliness to this seaside guesthouse, which is so well run and such a good value (rooms start at around BZ$112 double year-round) that it's almost always full. All rooms have air-conditioning available, cable TV, and a refrigerator. Two third-floor suites (BZR$206 plus tax), Sunset and Sunrise, have king-size beds and private balconies with views of the sea and reef. A small courtyard is a great place to read or lounge in a hammock. A few people rankle at the house rules and regulations enforced by the owner, who runs a tight ship: Rooms are cleaned early, no ifs, ands, or buts (and they are thoroughly cleaned); no cooking in rooms, not even hot water for coffee or tea; no outside guests; and checkout required by 9:30 am; but most find this one of the best guesthouses in Belize.
