Nelida is a great host! She picked me up, explained the town, helped me with going to see the ruins at Xunantunich (which saved me from spending hordes of money). Her house is gorgeous and super clean. She is herself very laid back and accommodating. I walked everyday in to San Ignacio. It's about a 15-minute walk - which is just right. There is a big supermarket by her house called "ABC," and of course everything else is available downtown. It is also hear Cahel Pech - another smaller ruin. She has a nice, calm dog named Russel :)
