If you are planning on staying in San Ignacio area, then my husband and I would 100% recommend staying with Arturo and Maria. We have never felt so welcome, and staying here was our favorite part of visiting Belize! To start off with, we had the most delicious cooked breakfasts each morning, and they also had great recommendations for restaurants to visit in town. The room itself is extremely spacious, and it was nice having a king sized bed and a hammock for lounging in. The fan was a must, as the room gets warm in the sun during the day. Their upper floor that overlooked San Ignacio and Santa Elena was perfect for lounging in the hammocks and enjoying lunch! Arturo and Maria also gave us great tips for traveling (tourist prices to avoid) in the area.

Overall, it was an amazing experience to stay with a warm and friendly family during our anniversary trip to Belize. Maria and Arturo made our stay very special, we look forward to coming back and visiting them next time we are in Belize!!
