INCREDIBLE!!!!!! This is the most amazing holiday rental I have ever rented. I have stayed in several places across the world and this place was by far the best in so many ways. If you are reading this now, and considering booking, book now - don't look anywhere else! It is quite a drive out of the main town San Ignacio, but it is totally worth it. If you want the real deal Belize experience in the rainforest this is it.
The house was newly built and done to a high standard. It sits high up and overlooks an incredible 180 degree view of the river and rainforest. The stars at night are just as mesmerising. It's a big house with high ceilings, and everything you could need for relaxing, or cooking your own food. Alternatively the hosts offered to cook for us, however we already had our own supplies.
The hospitality was second to none. Christy and Rob were very accomodating and helped us out a lot whenever we needed. Rob also does a full day's experience on a raft with a group along the river. I highly recommend you book this if you stay with them, we had such an amazing day. As we sailed slowly down the river, Rob cooked us a tasty BBQ, provided some rum, and kept the banter up with the group. He took us to so many waterfalls I lost count! One waterfall we actually climbed up to the top, which was such an unforgettable experience. We literally saw no other souls the whole day, as we enjoyed what the ancient Mayan's must have enjoyed (as well as Rob's family) I imagine the whole area hasn't changed one bit.
I'm in no doubt that I'll come back here, hopefully soon!
Thanks again Rob & Christie!
