Mystic River Resort

8/10 Good

"The staff were all very helpful and polite. The rooms were good with huge beds. I think my only gripe is that the service could be very slow."

Falling Leaves Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Very kind and helpful! Right next door to Cahal Pech so ruins are within steps from the hotel property. The food was great! Breakfast and dinner especially the lobster 5 stars! All staff was helpful and friendly! Loved Genesis and Paula was there anytime we needed her. The pool and hot tub were beautiful! The property in itself is beautiful and natural. My bag broke when I arrived and they fixed it for me asap."

Midas Belize

10/10 Excellent

"Location is good. It’s walking distance to San Ignacio Farmers Market and Guava Limb Cafe. Both great options to visit."

Venus Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good basic accommodation. Lots of space in room considering two double beds. You do have to come upstairs, no elevator. On good street for walking, close to local market. Parking available."

The Maya Mountain Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Well my daughter and I stayed for 3 nights. From the beginning of our arrival we were welcomed! Loved our time there. The entire staff are super friendly and kind. We especially loved getting to know Fiona and her family. We enjoyed all the meals they prepared for us. Thank you guys for a wonderful place to be☆"

Drift Inn Cayo

10/10 Excellent

"We recently stayed in the family room and had a wonderful experience. The room was very spacious and included three beds—two doubles and one king—which made it perfect for a family. The bathroom and shower were also noticeably larger than those in the standard room we stayed in during our previous visit. Another benefit is that the family room is located on the opposite side of the building from the pool and patio bar. The pool area can get a little lively on weekend evenings, although the music and activity do quiet down later at night. We also really enjoyed the new menu at Chef’s Patio. It offers a great variety of options, including appetizers, breakfast, burgers, Belizean dishes, pasta, and other lunch and dinner choices. Everything we ordered tasted fresh and homemade. They were out of a few items during our visit, but there were still plenty of delicious options to choose from. The seating is outdoors under a large covered area, so it can feel warm, and bringing bug spray is definitely a good idea. The staff was courteous, friendly, and welcoming, with the relaxed and laid-back atmosphere you would expect in Belize. This was our second time staying here, and we enjoyed it just as much as the first. We look forward to returning again!"

Villa Massis Luxury Jungle Villas

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great time staying at Villa Massis. The entire staff was very friendly and very accommodating and very warm and they took good care of us while we stayed there."

The West House Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice rooms with very nice balcony. Love the ease to walk to everything in town and the Market. Would definitely stay again."

MAXROOMZ

8/10 Good

"Property is close to everything. Room was good with AC, bathroom, TV, and mini fridge."
