Copal Tree Lodge, a Muy’Ono Resort, BELIZE

On a 3,000-acre farm in Punta Gorda, in southern Belize, Copal Tree Lodge offers 16 upscale suites and a three-bedroom villa. An all-inclusive lodge from the house of Muy’Ono Resorts, it is the perfect gateway to the rainforests of Maya Mountains. From preserving the 12,000-acre nature reserve that surrounds the property and that guests can explore on hiking trails, to reducing its carbon footprint by sourcing line-caught fish and seasonal seafood directly from local fishermen, Copal Tree Lodge has taken many steps towards conservation and local economic development. At the onsite Farm Centre, you can try your hand at production of coffee, chocolate, and rum. Take a tour of the Distillery, which produces premium organic spirits. You can also sign up for a Cocktail Mixology class to round off the tour. From `20,700; copaltreelodge.com
