Cotton Tree Lodge

Gnosis Chocolate/ChocolateLife Chocolate Retreat at Cotton Tree ...

Clay Gordon , founder of TheChocolateLife.com has planned a host of chocolate and cacao-themed activities - including visiting a cacao farm and farm family, starting a fermentation pile, visiting the Toledo Cacao Growers Association (the first co-op in the world to be both organic AND Fairtrade certified), and making chocolate from the bean. In addition, Clay will be hosting tastings (of non-raw chocolate) in the evenings along with talks about the ethnobotany of chocolate. All activities provide participants with the option to come along and enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the Belizean landscape. Simply relaxing at the Cotton Tree Lodge - whether sitting on the dock down by the river or lying in the hammock on the porch of your cabana, or reading a book in the gazebo - is one of the "special activities" that's always available. The cost of the trip is inclusive of all travel within Belize, all meals served at the Lodge, and all activity-related expenses, and taxes pertaining thereto. Not included are your bar bill at the lodge and any personal expenses and associated taxes. It is not required that you leave a tip at the Lodge for the servers, though they are always appreciated. The Lodge does accept credit cards for settling your bill when you check out.
