We travelled to Belize and arranged this stay at the last minute due to the Hurricane that had just hit.. The little Garifuna village was perfect and this place took you into the heart of it rather than the resorts at the other end (which were far from appealing to a traveller looking to be immersed in the culture, rather than surrounded by tourists..)

A warm welcome, comfortable place and overall quaint charm of the location was wonderful and made us feel entirely at home.. The pier is a stroll away, the people were inviting, the supermarket a couple doors down exploits the local people by overcharging them for essentials. Shop local and avoid it. There was never a moment we felt out of place, and our hosts were fabulous.

The adventures are easy to find and a rental car is the best option to get everywhere. Mirko was very helpful and had a great list of places to get to as well as a helpful guide to what did and did not need a guide.

Suggested treks: Southern Highway to Punta Gorda will lead you to a couple great mayan ruins. Bocawina forest was fabulous and close. Snorkeling with a local fisherman was at the top of the list of great things. Explore and enjoy, it was beautiful. BE CAREFUL OF ROAD HUMPS!!! They are all over the highway and rarely marked clearly. Once you get used to them it is easy to manage. Find What You Love... Love What you Find... Thank you to both Mirko and his wife for exactly what we expected.
