This is your sign to add the jungle to your Belize trip. ✈️

07/01/2026

If you're planning a trip to Belize, you definitely need to add the jungle to your itinerary! ⁠
⁠
Here's what Sweet Songs Lodge looks like:⁠
⁠
- Food & drinks that have no business being this good⁠
- A treehouse room with an open-air bathtub overlooking the canopy⁠
- Horseback riding through the jungle⁠ to a beautiful overlook ⁠
- Tubing down the river right outside the lodge⁠
- Going into town to see the market and learning how the Maya actually made chocolate ⁠
- An infinity pool that you will not want to leave⁠
⁠
⁠
The beach is great. But the jungle offers a completely different and unique Belizean experience!

My Favorite Things to do At Desert Night Camp.

- Hang out with Camels 🐪
- Dinner under the stars

A lot of these activities you can do at many sand dunes but regardless of where you do it, it’s such an amazing experience. ✨

Today, my heart aches as I lost the greatest man I’ve ever met. He was not just a parent but also a guiding light in my life. With a heart of gold, he and my mom adopted my brother and I and showed us the true meaning of family and unconditional love. Dad’s love, wisdom, and unwavering support made our lives richer in countless ways and shaped me into the person I am today. We will forever miss his encyclopedia knowledge, desert dry humor, and listening to him belt out songs in the kitchen.

While he may no longer be with us in person, his spirit will forever live on in my memories and the lessons he taught me.

Rest easy, Dad. We'll miss you beyond words.
