Amazing spot all around
Our group of 6 were extremely impressed with the beauty of this home; little extra touches and beautiful wood throughout; sitting on the dining room deck overlooking the amazing view of the jungle/forest; coming home after a day exploring and taking a dip in the pool; Consuela cooked for us 1 night - it was a nice break and great food. Katia answered any inquiries quickly and was very helpful with directions and details. The gardener kept the grounds clean and always had a smile; the resident dogs were very friendly and so well behaved. All 6 of us were pleasantly surprised and would not hesitate to recommend to friends or go back again.

Beautiful hilltop home
Everything about our stay was amazing! Katia is a highly responsive communicator and helpful resource, and the housekeeper, Consuelo, well let's just say I wanted to see if I could convince her to come home with us permanently! She was so kind-hearted and made us the most delectable meal. The views and yard are breathtaking (we saw toucans from the porch most nights!), the pool was a hit with the kids, we enjoyed the multiple hammocks, and the home's overall aesthetics were wonderful. The beds were all very comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. We were here during dry season and had no problem getting up the hill without 4 wheel drive, but I bet that would be different during the wet season. The property description clearly says this, but keep in mind that only 1 bedroom has a/c. We happened to be here during a HOT week, and ended up moving a couple of extra mattresses into the bedroom with a/c because sleeping without a/c was next to impossible. The house is designed to have excellent crosswinds coming through which would be more than sufficient to cooling purposes in all but the hottest weather (which we had). All in all, it was a fabulous stay and we already miss the property!

Amazing home base for the Cayo
This is a very nice home in a beautiful location. We stayed here for a week while exploring the Cayo. The view from the deck in amazing. The pool was a nice to cool off in during the really hot afternoons. The host, Consuelo, was great and we had her cook dinner twice at the house (I highly recommend it).

About the host

Hosted by Katia Paradis

Host profile image
We built our dream house property in 2008 and feel it is the best place to live in Belize!

Why they chose this property

The property sets on the top of a breezy hill with a majestic view we never get tired of looking at. It offers the privacy and intimacy of a resort while not being too isolated and close to the groceries store and bustling village life. In fact, we were not the first one to find this location as a premium spot, while building the foundations of the house, we found 2 ancient Mayan foundations laying one on top of another. We believe it is a great property for those who go for the car rental option, preferably a SUV, either in San Ignacio or Belize City and explore the area at their own rhythm without being bound to any schedule. The road access to the house is a dirt path, often bumpy, that gets muddy on rainy season. Inquire about drop-offs or pick-ups in town.

What makes this property unique

On days where everyone complains about heat and humidity and get to our place, they are always surprised by how much more comfortable and cooler it is up there. The locations is ideal : close to town with spectacular views but it feels like far away.
