Pictures really don't do the hotel justice for the queen + double bed room. Very clean and comfortable. Walking distance to bars and restaurants. San Ignacio is hilly, so keep that in mind for your walking, but great exercise.
- Staff was great
- Close (driving) to multiple cultural and natural sight seeing/experiences
- Easy parking on site

Very helpful staff. Great old school attitude. Perfect location for all the Cayo activities. Easy walk to the main drag without all the noise. Restaurant food and service was great. Bird watching in their preserve was fun and Jason is very knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

We only stayed a night and had to leave early due to an emergency. Staff was friendly, pool was nice enough and kids had fun with the pool toys provided. Food was ok as well.The view from our room was beautiful and really felt immersed in the jungle while inside the hotel with Toucan’s and iguanas sighted our first day. Good location to get to all the intown activities. The immediate vicinity outside the back of the room had a lot of trash and construction also happening which was distracting to the beauty. The day we left there was literally debris falling down in front of our door as they worked on an addition or remodeling next to/above our room. Was also extremely loud due to the construction which made naps for kids hard. I think if staying in San Ignacio this would still have been an OK choice but way overpriced and not good value for the money.

The checking process was the most pleasant due to customer service agent was rude. However, the other front desk agent Christopher was ver friendly and very helpful.
I paid about $700US for two bedrooms suite a night. I personally don’t think this hotel is worth the price. The carpet in the hotel is worn out and needs cleaning. The throw pillows and rugs in our rooms were very dusty. The hot tub on the balcony was dirt. The hotel it needs some repair and upkeep to charge this price for a room.
On a positive note, the restaurant was best food I tasted in Belize. I traveled to 4 districts in Belize on this trip and I highly recommend this restaurant.
All of the food were delicious, I told the restaurant manager to make sure to keep that cook because the restaurant is part of the hotel.

My sister and I loved our stay here! The restaurant is great, the staff is so helpful getting excursions booked, and the iguana project is wonderful. The photos do not do this place justice. Sitting by the pool as the sun began to go down and all the lights were on was simply beautiful! The hotel is on a big hill, so while I did do a lot of walking because town is very close - that may not be for everyone!

We loved the San Ignacio Resort Hotel. It was truly as they said – like staying in a jungle right in the city. Everything was extremely clean, the staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the room was very comfortable. We had several meals at the hotel which were very good and the restaurant was relaxing.

You won't find friendlier, most personalized hospitality anywhere. The staff were all smiles and seemed genuinely happy to be of service. John in particular was very helpful as concierge and booked shuttles for us to other destinations. The guides for activities arranged through the resort were top notch.
Rooms were spacious, clean, and comfortable, the pool was nice (and quiet), and the dining was excellent. The Green Iguana project is worth visiting whether you stay at the resort or not.
Highly recommended for your jungle adventure portion of your Belize trip!
