We stayed in several rentals during our trip to Belize and Guatemala, and Aliana's was by far our favorite. I'd return here in a heartbeat.
I was worried about finding it because there are so few addresses in Belize, but Aliana provided great instructions and a YouTube video of the last mile so we could easily find the gate. The house itself is charming and spacious, and the kitchen is well stocked. We cooked at least one meal every day in the kitchen and had everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable, and it was nice to have the A/C right over the bed at night.
The location was perfect. It's about a ten minute drive outside of San Ignacio, and actually very easy to find. The river is beautiful, and we watched egrets flying over every evening. In the mornings, we awoke to geckos chirping. The whole lawn fills with fireflies at night - couldn't be a more magical place! My kids fell in love with Aliana's house.
Aliana and Maria were very gracious hosts, and checked in each morning to see if we needed help planning or finding directions. They were both so sweet and helpful. My daughter actually turned eight in the midst of our stay, and when Maria found out, she brought over a piece of birthday cake and a doll as a present, both of which just made our day and are examples of how thoughtful the hosts were.
If you are heading for Belize and there's an opening at Aliana's, grab it. You won't be sorry!
