Ani is Diveana's mother and was a gracious hostess in her stead. She is very sweet and helpful and made me some cultural food and extra coffee for a great price. The bedroom is private and small but adequate with a dresser, shelving and a small round table, and of course queen bed. There was adequate locking on the door making it private. The bathroom was adequate and shared with other guests if there. There is a small hallway common space. There is adequate locking into the common space and on bathroom door. You need to travel upstairs to get to room. Sarteneja is a pretty village, simple and serene. But also very, very muddy in the rainy season even crossing over into dry season. I was there in late December and it was rainy, making it very muddy. No paved roads -- only dirt.
The road to Sarteneja from either the Orange Walk bypass or Corozal is unpaved and takes about two hour, plus or minus. If coming from Corozal you will cross your car over on two different barges over the river. The first part of the road isn't too bad, but it gets worse and has a lot of very deep potholes and the entire road is extremely muddy in rainy season and your rental car will get covered in mud, much less beat up by potholes -- so be forewarned.
It takes about an hour and a half or so to get to the Cerros Ruins from Sarteneja and you travel back partly on the road you came to get there. The Cerros ruins are amazing!
