Jaguar creek is a hidden gem, we loved our stay. We stayed in their tropical breeze cabin, with AC, a lovely bed, and private deck to watch the stars. The grounds are gorgeous, the firepits are cozy, and we loved the deck overlooking the creek. Having the creek was a nice surprise! We loved rambling down the creek in inner tubes. Every meal was lovely - from coconut curry to refried beans and flatbread with squash. The sprinter van that picks you up from the airport and to/from activities was comfy, had A/C, and the best drivers (thanks, Kenny and Abraham!) additionally, the location can’t be beat. An hour from ATM, 5 minutes from St Herman’s, and 2 minutes from the Blue Hole cenote. Lastly and most importantly are the staff. From Carlos who helped me fix my bungled reservation to a tourist trap (instead of the local St Herman’s park!) to the warm and gracious restaurant staff who helped my husband plan a magical birthday dinner. Jaguar creek is truly wonderful - every part of our stay was above expectations. Some reviewers point out needing bug spray (duh), the lack of WiFi (you’re in the jungle…there’s very strong WiFi near the main building) and variety in meals (this is an eco lodge). If you’re seeking an adventurous, well-appointed, and quiet lodge, JC is your spot. I am SO glad we chose this over other sports we were initially considering.
