I'd recommend Mikes Place to anyone visiting in the area. Mike is a terrific host and is overflowing with information about the whole area. He began developing his oasis decades ago. It's a large park-like setting surrounded by jungle.
You really are emersed in the Cayo landscape. A little taste of paradise. With monkeys howling in the distance. A big open air restaurant as well. And with the Barton Creek Cave right there on the premises, and a zip line too, you can spend your time there having fun without having to travel around.
