My friend and I stayed at Aliana's in July 2018 in Riverside Cabin #2. Everything about our stay was great! Olga was very prompt to respond to questions via AirBnB both before and during our stay. She greeted us upon arrival and showed us all around the beautiful property. She told us about the many fruit trees they cultivate and even gave us some fresh fruit to eat! It was obvious how much pride she takes in their farm property, and how important our comfort was to her. The cabin was clean and really well-appointed with modern amenities, and was cozy and comfortable for two people. We loved having AC! The only minor off-putting thing was that the sinks only have cold water (hot water is available in the shower only). We weren't sure how to wash dishes without hot water but Olga said it was fine to wash them in cold. The property was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed the company of Tuxedo, the cat, who loved to hang out on our deck every day.
Both Olga and Ernesto were so friendly and helpful during our stay - checking on us, offering rides into town, etc. Ernesto even arranged a last-minute private tour for us to go to the Mayan ruins at Xunantunich after we thought we'd missed all the tours for that day.
We wished we could have stayed longer to enjoy the property more, especially floating in the river! We didn't have time to do that during our visit, but they do offer canoes and inner tubes for fun on the water.
Aliana's is a bit outside of town from San Ignacio, but we found that shuttle companies and tour operators were happy to come get us. and it was only about a 10 minute taxi ride into town.
We highly recommend Aliana's!
