Exotic High End Unique Off-The-Grid Treehouse, steps away from the Mopan River!

WOW! We made it! Our Home, a True Labor of Love, from the start of construction, over 3 years ago, to its completion, a few days ago, is finally ready for rental! Thank you to all those that made this amazing piece of art possible!

We are located in Bullet Tree Falls, a jungle village along the Mopan River in the Cayo District of Belize. It lies approximately three miles northwest of San Ignacio, a city that serves as the cultural-economic hub of the Cayo District. It has become the fastest growing city in Belize, with its own weekly must-see market, casino, and top rated restaurants and hotels.

This stunning 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom Treehouse sleeps 6 people, rises 16 feet off the ground, sits on close to 2 acres of fully landscaped land, and is steps away from the Mopan river with a 360 degree view over the Guatemalan valley. If you are lucky, you will hear the roar of the howler monkeys at a distance. However, they will never come and disturb your peace, they will stay in their own corner of the jungle. Also, on the ground level of The Treehouse, you can enjoy an incredibly relaxing private pool, with its fountain, that could have you daydreaming in no time, if you are caught off guard...!!

The dine-in kitchen is truly inviting, and is equipped with state-of-the-art stainless steel appliances, professional cooking range, full size fridge and freezer, wine cooler, top-of-the line pots, pans, dish-ware, utensils, and accessories (Le Creuset among others).

Open the door of The Treehouse, and you come into an extremely well appointed office, with an iMac computer and an AirPrint printer, or you can bring your own laptop, as The Treehouse is connected to high speed internet via satellite. There is also WiFi throughout the house.

The 2 bedrooms have both their en-suite bathrooms. Enjoy unrestricted views of the Guatemalan valley from the bathtub in the master bedroom. Both bedrooms are equipped with internet Tv's for your enjoyment.

Sleep (daybed, sleeps 2), relax, watch TV, or read a book from our library in the adorable breezeway, that adjoins the master bedroom.

Come for a night, a week, or a month, and you will never want to leave! You can cut yourself from the world, and just enjoy the Treehouse, day-in, day-out, as there is enough entertainment, to satisfy the most discerning traveler, or you can enjoy the many attractions that Belize, and The Cayo district have to offer.

You'll be lured by the rugged beauty of the region, with its jagged limestone hills, low green mountains where tapirs, peccaries, and jaguars still roam free, and its boulder-strewn rivers and creeks. You'll also appreciate its diversity, in a compact and accessible package. Even on a short stay, you can canoe, kayak or go tubbing down the rivers, hike remote mountain trails, visit a Mayan ruin, explore underground cave systems, go birding or wildlife-spotting, shop at a busy local market, chill out at a sidewalk café, and dine in style at a good restaurant or by lamplight at a jungle lodge.

This lux, unique, exotic treehouse was amazing, uplifting and soul stirring to see and stay in for our too brief two night stay. The house is gorgeous and the decorative flair throughout was uplifting and inspiring to behold. Though we did not cook on the stellar top of of the line stovetop, the gorgeous kitchen with its cool concrete countertops and dark, gleaming cabinetry, made the little food prep we did, all the more pleasurable. The treehouse though a sight to behold in and of itself, the plethora of a seeming 1000 birds plus wildly flying and singing amongst the tall trees and the treehouse tree at dusk was otherworldly amazing. Followed by the chorus of crickets, and the changing colored lights in the pool a night, access to the river a short walk across the street, all in all was exquisite and enchanting:: this indeed unique, treasurable treehouse. We are especially grateful our small dog was welcomed to stay in the treehouse as well. Our little dog was all wags and smiles throughout her stay. Catherine is a great host and provided impeccable professionalism and was friendly and engaging throughout our communications. Tito the caretaker was courteous and informative and helpful. It is true like other reviewers said, of the road being particularly bumpy to drive up to the house. For us, it was all part of the wondrous adventure. The highlight of our trip: was a private tour of the incredible ATM cave that Catherine arranged. We hope to stay here again!

I spent a few days here with my family. The area is beautiful, safe and quiet. My son loves the pool. The house is so unique and had everything needed to enjoy time there. If you are thinking of staying here, I'd recommend getting groceries before you arrive as the house is not close to any dining or grocery, but this is what we were looking for. If you want to tranquility, this is your place!! We took some day trips to local spots which we enjoyed immensely. The locals are friendly and nice but not overly curious as we have experienced in other countries. We spent our first few days of a longer trip to Belize which included the islands, and the treehouse was my favorite part of the trip!!

This very secluded property was perfect for us. The communication and customer service by Catherine was great. She scheduled all our excursions for us and her provider did not disappoint. Edwin and his employees were awesome! No hesitation in recommending. Just be aware it is several miles down a very rough, rocky road. Take great care with your rental car!

Stunning spot
If you love cool architecture and beautiful furnishings, this is the place for you. The jungle setting was beautiful. We heard Howler Monkeys in the mornings and evenings and enjoyed the view from the spacious deck. Come prepared with your own water though. They don't recommend drinking the tap water and only provide 1 gallon for your group for your entire stay. Also, try not to arrive after dark. Because there are no house numbers it's hard to find and the treehouse is not visible from the road. A sign by the road would be helpful. San Ignacio is cool to explore. We highly recommend the AJAW Chocolate tour and the Caves Branch river tour. Guides are available at the entrance. Our favorite restaurant of our entire Belize trip was Guava Limb in San Ignacio. A++

We had such a wonderful time staying at the tree house. Tito took excellent care of us and is a genuinely fine human, treehouse is lucky to have. The home is safe and clean. Far enough out of town to be quiet but close enough to anything you might want to do in town. Remote work with video conferencing no problem at all. We would definitely stay again.

Belize jungle house
We (2 adults, 1 14 year old boy) loved this place. There was plenty of room with privacy. It was especially perfect in the covid world we live in right now. We don't really like people so it will also be perfect when covid has burned out! You could hear howler monkeys in the surrounding jungle. The pool was refreshing. Watching birds was great. We took 1 day off just to enjoy the house which was a good call. Tito was very helpful. He got us in touch with Edwin who runs an excursion service. That worked out well. We did ATM cave and Caracal. The main roads in Belize are good. The smaller roads are crap. It is a good idea to use a guide to drive to Caracal. That road is horrendous. The ATM road wasn't too bad. We drove to Calico Jack's for zip line. That road was similar to the road to the house (crap but doable). We had a mid sized suv from Pancho's that we rented at the airport. The guy made it clear that changing a tire was not going to be his problem. We were able to watch the football bowl games at the house on New Years which was nice. Roxy and Lucky are nice. They let you know when anybody is walking by the house. A microwave would be a nice addition. It would be nice to stay for a couple of weeks and really get to experience the area. The people were all really friendly. The Amish and Mennonite are intriguing and they make Great ice cream and other dairy products.

Family Vacation
The treehouse was absolutely FABULOUS!!!! We are an adventurous outdoor loving family of 5, (kids ages 9, 13, 15) and were expecting a rustic treehouse. What we walked into was a luxurious, well decorated, gorgeous house built around a century old tree with a great view, great outdoor space, a cook's kitchen, with great wifi service and a wonderful caretaker. We were surprised to find a pool table below the house which provided even more outdoor fun for our family. There were fruit producing trees which Tito, the caretaker, was kind enough to find some ripe coconuts and cut them open for the us to try the meat and milk! We planned 3 nights in Western Belize and 5 nights in the Cayes. When the morning of our departure came, we wanted to stay in the treehouse!!! We were conveniently located to San Ignacio where we enjoyed the farmers market on Saturday, easily accessible to the Mayan Ruins as well as cave tubing, horseback riding, ziplining, and more! Tito was very knowledgeable about the area and was a joy to talk to. We will definitely be returning to The Treehouse!!! Thank you for sharing your gorgeous home with us!

Perfect House to Explore Mountains of Belize
This property is nicer than the photos show. It is in pristine condition. Everything, including the finishings, kitchenware, linens and even the towels are first rate. The front yard is planted with fruit trees and leads down to the Mopan River. The spaces inside are large...4 people can work in the kitchen simultaneously. A quiet oasis to return to after a day on dusty roads and hikes. And the pool, pool table and large deck for birdwatching make the house a joy to relax in when you need a day off from exploring. The owner could not be more responsive and helpful, as is the caretaker Tito. You will not regret renting this unique, beautiful property.

Lovely home inside and out. Good bird watching from the upper deck as well as from the pool deck. 15 min drive to San Ignacio farmers market. Just down the road is the restaurant and Bar at Mahogany Hall if you’re looking for an upscale dining or bar experience. Road to property in decent condition even with a heavy rain storm. Tito, the care taker, keeps the grounds beautiful and will answer all your random questions about the area. If you can’t figure out how something works in the house, he’s your man. We also enjoyed being greeted by two very happy dogs every time we returned home. Bullet Tree Falls is a delightful and friendly community. Highly Recommend both the area and the Treehouse.

Heaven on Earth!
The treehouse was amazing! We came here for a family getaway (5 of us). The location was great for exploring ruins, close enough to town to easily get groceries, far enough away to feel secluded. Tito was very kind and set us up with inner tubes one day for the river which was fun. Loved hearing parrots in the morning, pool was refreshing after a long day of excursions. Bring binoculars to view wildlife, headlight or flashlight for the caves, waterproof case for camera, and stay as long as you can - you won't be disappointed!

Lovely Upscale Property in a Remote Setting
The Treehouse at Bullet Tree Falls was certainly a novelty for our group! The property is quite beautiful and well cared for. The kitchen was stocked with anything we could have wished for. The owner was also very responsive to questions during our stay, and the caretaker, Tito, did a wonderful job. Swimming in a private pool in the midst of the jungle with birds flying overhead was an exceptional experience, and we would stay again. Please be aware that it will take quite a bit of time to travel the short distance to the nearby town due to the condition of the road that the property is located on. There is laundry available on site, but only during the hours that the caretaker is there. The owners have friendly dogs, and you can choose to have them stay or have the caretaker take them during your stay, and they do bark during the night if they remain.

This was a great place to stay!! Very clean, well furnished, and comfortable. Slightly outside of town, make sure you have a rugged car to get here because there is about a 3 mile stretch of rough dirt road. It took about 15 to 20 minutes to get to San Ignacio. Tito the groundskeeper was very friendly and helpful. Catherine, the owner, kept in constant communication before and during our trip. We will definitely return if we have a big group!!

This place is not to miss!
This treehouse is unBELIZEable! With breathtaking views, a short walk to the river, and moderate travel time to San Ignacio proper, this is the perfect balance of seclusion and access. Private pool is a beautiful focal point and the best way to cool off after a day of visiting ruins. Inside the treehouse you will find expansive rooms and common areas, and more amenities than ever thought possible from a treehouse. Tito the property manager is a wealth of knowledge and brings his adorable, well-behaved dogs Roxy and Lucky in case you are missing your critters at home. Will absolutely stay here again!
