If you’re looking at and thinking about this Airbnb—book it immediately! I’ve done many trips and stayed in lovely Airbnbs, and this one takes the trophy. Perfect location (both relaxing/remote and close to restaurants, food markets, Mayan ruins) incredible host, and top-notch space.

Corrina is the definition of a superhost, and she and her team went above and beyond during our stay. They made sure we were comfortable driving and getting around town, and helped suggest activities and things to do in the area. She will make you feel at home and is so knowledgeable on Belize and what makes Chial so special. Corrina is so kind and lovely and we felt so lucky to be connected with her through Airbnb. By the time we were ready to leave Belize we considered her a friend :)
We absolutely loved San Ignacio and we spent a week at the stay. Our personal favorite was the New French Bakery and everyone in town is friendly and helpful. At the local food market we learned about new spices and fruits and you can get water, wine, food, and everything you need right in town at one of the many local shops. Definitely recommend stopping by Jalapeños for some rum punch, and sky sushi bar for the views.
The location is incredible, and we would spend hours in the pool watching monkeys, hummingbirds, toucans, and the beautiful sunsets. Inside is cool and relaxing and the WiFi was fast and appliances are new.
We recommend a car with 4-wheel drive especially if you plan to go see ruins or do any cave activities. Some days we would just drive around for fun and take in the view of the hills, cows, palm trees, and sun.
We’re excited to return to Belize and have fallen in love with the jungle and all of the beautiful plants and animals.
