Valley View Thatched Cabanas - These cabanas offer a breath taking view of the Macal River valley and surrounding jungles. A gentle breeze and the thatched roof make the temperature inside the room pleasant both day and night. Each room contains a queen-sized bed and a single bed.

Garden View Thatched Cabanas - As the name suggests, the Garden View cabanas offer a great view of the garden and landscape of Crystal Paradise. Each room has a double bed and single bed.

Regular Room - These economical rooms may not come with a porch and hammock but are near a palapa with hammocks and sitting area. We offer these rooms at a reduced rate.

Jungle Tree Houses - For those seeking a more primitive adventure (no electricity or flush toilets), we recommend staying in tree houses at Martz Farm. Located about an hour from Crystal Paradise, they offer family-style comfortable lodging in the jungle tree tops. While here you can go horseback riding or caving in the jungle. Your hosts there, the friendly Martinez family, provide safe drinking water and excellent food.

RESORT GROUNDS & FEATURES: Palapas - There are three palapas at Crystal Paradise. A palapa is a round structure with thatched roof. Each thatched palapa features hammocks and sitting area for relaxing and enjoying the scenery on the grounds, especially in our gardens inhabited with singing birds.
Deck - The deck next to the dining room overlooks the valley and is an ideal place for spotting birds. Three spotting scopes and binoculars are available for birding. Frequent visitors include hummingbirds, tanagers, honeycreepers, and flycatchers. Later in the evening, the deck is a good place to meet after a day of activities and join the family and other guests for a chat.

Our Kitchen - The kitchen serves up the best of mouth-watering home cooking. You can sample a variety of homemade local dishes, home- grown coffee, fresh in-season fruits and veggies prepared by mother and daughters. Our meals are served family style. Have breakfast and dinner with us in our open-air thatched roof dining room overlooking the jungles, beautiful palms, and exotic trees. You'll be sure to have plenty to eat here at Crystal Paradise.

Self-Service Bar - Our bar offers local and international beverages. After an exciting day of discovery and exploration you can relax with a refreshing drink from the self-service bar and share your day's adventure with other guests. The bar serves various things from refreshing limeade to rum punches and margaritas. Be sure to try our specials or sample many of our local rums, beers, etc. Your first drink is on the house.
