Ranguana Lodge was a welcome place to spend a few days before traveling out to Hatchet Caye. The cabanas are set in a lush tropical setting filled with flowers. We actually saw several people walking by stop to photograph the flowers. We were coming from Guatemala and up country Belize and decided on Ranguana as a place to stop for... More

Very cute cabanas with beautiful grounds. Some noise from adjacent bar, but usually quiet fter 10 pm. Enjoyed having the fridge and coffee pot. We brought a hand blender and fixed fresh fruit smoothies for breakfast. Very clean. Although we couldn't swim right off our beach, a 20 min. walk brought us to a wonderful sandy swim area. Nice to... More

These little cottages are the cutest place we stayed in Belize. They have a front porch and plenty of space. We stayed in Triggerfish and had two beds, fridge, toaster and coffee pot as well as a microwave. The bathroom was decent. The location is great for walking and you can't beat that ocean view. One word of caution...the wind... More

In writing a review, one cannot blame nature in the overall experience. However, since early February, the shoreline of Placencia is about 30 feet deep in washed up sea grass. It's impossible to enter the water from the beach in front of Ranguana. We accepted this to be the fault of climate and storm fronts that had washed it in... More

We stayed at Ranguana Lodge for 4 nights in January/2012. We paid $90/ dollars a night for the cabana in the garden. It was spacious, clean and had 2 beds so it could easily sleep a small family. It also had a kitchen with pretty much everything you needed. We didn't end up needing it but had we been staying... More

I spent a lot of time reading reviews before our trip to Belize. You always wonder whether you are going to make the right decision. However, with Ranguana, we most certainly did. I have to add that we cycled from Placencia village all the way to Maya Beach (which is 7 miles from the village) and this is by far... More

Just returned from a 6-night stay in the beachfront "Trigger Fish" cabin at Ranguana Lodge. Simple, but pleasant accommodations right on the beach. Nothing fancy about the rooms, but that's what we expected. The staff was friendly and helpful and the air conditioning in the room was great on those warm, humid evenings. The grounds are lovely, full of flowers,... More

I have lived and travelled around Belize for 6 years.My friends and I were going to Seine Bight for a weekend festival that featured various Belizean musical legends. Drove to Placencia because there were no suitable accomodations that we could find in SB. Looked at two places-one was full-the other smelled musty/moldy and the man that showed us the room... More
