Orange Walk is not a touristic hot spot, yet is the stepping off point to Lamanai, a Maya site that had continual occupancy until the Spanish arrived.
Orange Walk
Hotel De La Fuente
Our favorite hotel in Orange Walk. Very arty rooms, comfortable, reminiscent of South Beach, managed by Orlando De La Fuente. The hospitality is wonderful.
Orchid Palm Inn
Nice hotel, close to down town, clean rooms, family owned
Lamanai Outpost Lodge
Next door to Lamanai. If you get up early, you can walk to the tallest pyramid and watch the sun rise over the mist coming off the lagoon while howler monkeys make noise and parrots screech past below you.
