Benque Viejo Del Carmen Vacation Rentals

"Gorgeous jungle property with high comfortable attention to detail. "

"Very central San Ignacio guest house that was great for a family of 4 with a spacious room. The staff were very friendly and helped us to arrange private transport back to Belize City with a stop at the zoo"

"Gaia was INCREDIBLE. The property is gorgeous, the rooms are beautiful, the scenery is stunning, and yet the best part is the fantastic service. We felt like friends with Freddy and Javier by the time we left. Greg was also a wonderful tour guide. And Colby helped us decide on and book adventures. They all made us feel right at home! un fact, they didn’t let us check in until we’d had a welcome drink and sat down for a lovely candlelit dinner. And speaking of the restaurant - the food and drinks on the property are really great which is good because unless you have 4WD you’re unlikely to be going elsewhere to eat. Expect to pay American prices for food and drinks but it’s worth it as almost all (if not all) the food is grown right there on the property - everything’s incredibly fresh and delicious. My favorite part was lounging down by the waterfall or sitting on our balcony overlooking it, listening to the sounds of the jungle. "

"Wonderful staff, lovely pools. Rooms were great. "

"Lovely setting and restaurant; well-kept property. Wonderful staff."

"This lodge was amazing, the room was clean and big, the whole site was gorgeous with so many huge plants and trees! There is also a small hike you can do around the lodge. The pool is great and the set up around it is really peaceful. The staff is really nice and so helpful. They gave us a map to walk downtown, which is 15-20 mins by foot. We were 3 girls and never got worried about walking around. We took a cab to come back to the lodge at night since it’s on top of a hill and it gets dark at 6:30 there. The taxi fare was pretty cheap, around 10-15 BZE (you need to ask the driver for the price and negotiate before you get in the taxi). Also the clerk at the front desk of the lodge booked all the activities we did during our stay. The company they suggested was very good. We did Actun Tunichill on the first day, Xunantunich and Nohoch Che’en (highlight of our trip) on the second day and Caracol with the Rio pools on our last day. The lodge also has a cute little restaurant that is managed by a separate group of employees. You can book the restaurant with the reception and choose your meal in advance so when you get to your table it’s almost ready and you don’t have to wait. This was very useful especially on the mornings when we had to leave early for our daily activities. We really enjoyed exploring San Ignacio, but it was also great to have a cool place to hang after our day. Would 100% recommend The Maya Mountains Lodge ! "

"The resort was really nice, staff were wonderful. We loved the green iguana conservation project! Location was close, and walkable to town. We enjoyed our stay and would stay again if in the area. "

"We stayed here on a family vacation with our kids and their 9 month old child. The resort had a pack and play available as well as fridge and microwave. The front desk staff was very accommodating and helped arrange taxi service to the Mayan ruins and calico jacks for zip lining. There are several dining options within easy walking distance and we felt very safe in the area. Residents of the area are very warm and welcoming. The pool bar was a welcome sight at the end of a busy day. "

"The best place to stay in San Ignacio!! The grounds were absolutely beautiful, a little oasis just outside of the town center. The rooms were so clean and the AC was strong which we needed. The restaurant was great and so accommodating with our meals. All of the staff was wonderful and friendly. And the infinity pool was the cherry on top!"
