We loved staying with a family! It was like visiting my own grandmother, but in much warmer weather. Sue is absolutely wonderful, and we also got to meet her grandchildren and husband- all of whom were an absolute delight. Such a beautiful and kind family that welcomed us into their space like old friends. The space is adorable and situated an easy walking distance to many bars and restaurants, the San Ignacio market (a must see on a Saturday), as well as the Cahal Pech site and the Green Iguana Preservation project. We parked our car and walked the entire time we were there. We had a particular affinity for Cozy’s and Papa Ben’s for food/drinks, and we went to the bakery Recino’s several times as well. We got breakfast from Awe’s Fast Food every day - if you aren’t familiar with local food, YOU HAVE TO GET FRYJACKS! Obviously we loved our stay- but if you are looking for a “cheap hotel” option this isn’t it- just keep that in mind when booking so expectations meet reality!
