This was my first international trip with my two daughters (10 and 13 years old). At first, I was a little nervous, but once I arrived at Mystic River Resort, I realized this was probably the best decision I've ever made. From the start of our trip, the services and resort were amazing. Our flight arrived late (5:00PM) into BZE. It was a 2-hour drive to the resort, and upon arrival it was dark. I had no idea where to go. However, I was greeted (by name somehow) in the parking lot by 3 resort workers, who took our luggage and walked us to our room.
The continental breakfast was delicious, my kids loved the chocolate chip pancakes, and all the fresh fruit while watching the birds eat the fruit set out for them. Dinner was quiet, peaceful and delicious. The fire was nice. My kids loved watching all the wildlife sightings at the resort. Leslie was an amazing, knowledgeable guide throughout our entire trip. We did a night hike and cave tube tour with him. He was an expert, and we were in good hands. My kids loved going on the adventures he had in store for them. All the activities/services offered through the resort were awesome! The complimentary morning birding session was amazing! At nighttime, we heard howler monkeys-very cool experience!
All of the hotel staff was incredible. The pool was refreshing after a long day. The entire trip was incredible, and the resort was amazing. The country is beautiful. I didn't want to leave! We will be back very soon!
