We love San Ignacio and this home was perfect for us. Getting around town can be a bit challenging (narrow busy one-way streets) but we figured it out fine. The home itself was really nice, very clean and had everything we needed. Having a washer and dryer downstairs was a huge deal for us. The hosts we very responsive, checking in often to see if we needed anything. Overall fantastic stay, highly recommended.

Nice house but a bit inconvenient.
This house itself was very nice and well maintained but a bit inconvenient. The location is a little too far from the center of town and the roads up to it were steep and full of HUGE potholes. You would definitely want to have a car if staying here. We also felt a bit inconvenienced by having to close and lock the gate every time we left. It gave us a bit of unease about the neighborhood, which did have some dogs that barked well into the night. The price was good, but just know that it is a trade-off for some not so conveniet features.

Spacious in San Ignacio
Great oversized property for our needs but very comfortable and convenient. Elida was available for anything we needed. Only complaint was the two shower heads which need to be replaced. A true home away from home and if back in San Ignacio, we know where to stay!

Clean modern spacious
All in all an excellent experience. Our only glitch was the refrigerator dying on the last day which was quickly attended to. The house is on a hill above the western highway and near Helen’s grocery store. For any fruits and vegetables you need to go to the San Ignacio open market about a Mile away. Great restaurants nearby. The support staff were outstanding in resolving our dead refrigerator issue

Close hilltop location
Didn't realize the house was on a hilltop. Not a problem if you have a rental car (or call a taxi). So we got our exercise, not a bad thing just took some preplanning when going out. Master bedroom has a beautiful senic beach scene. Take earplugs, roosters are crowing around 5:30. Lots of birds in the area. Mattresss were not great.

Very Nice
The Villa Maya (upstairs appt.) was a beautiful place to stay for our 3 nights in San Ignacio. Furnishings, etc. were very nice (as pictured). Kitchen had a blender which worked great for fresh fruit smoothies, but no spatula for cooking eggs. The wrap-around shaded balcony was wonderful. Security was good, with parking inside the locked gate. Located in a nice neighborhood away from downtown, so you will want a car or cab to get to town. Cahal Pech Mayan site is an easy walk, though. A couple very minor issues - ceiling fan light was burned out in one bedroom, but the bedside lamps worked. Same bedroom had an issue with the air conditioner set to 16 Celsius and the remote control would not adjust the temp. Thankfully it was cool enough to rely on the ceiling fan, so we were never really uncomfortable. Overall, a very nice stay - I would recommend this place to anyone.

BEWARE & NOTICE no pics of surrounding area for a reason!
5 visits to Belize and this was my WORST stay! This property is a remote location not walking distance from anything and impossible to find, management gave inaccurate directions that left us LOST. You are locked into the gate and the stairwell leading to the flat is gated padlocked. Leaving us feeling locked in, in an unsafe location. The outside light blew out literally less then a minute after we turned it on. We waited 30 minutes parked for the attendant to lead us in.Once there at 3pm we were told the water was out in the whole town(later learned it had been out since early morning, so we should've been informed before arrival). The water company continued to delay when the water would be on. At 9:30 pm (after we were in bed from a long drive up the mountain on unpaved roads as they are being worked on) The attendant text did I want her to bring water, I woke up at 1 am and saw the text . Water should've been brought without question. Still no water the next morning so we left by 7am. They refused to refund any money for a 2 night stay offering a 10% discount on next stay. Stating it was beyond their control and I was offered water. Then tried to accuse us of smoking in the property (which we don't do) and in the same sentence stated the maid said it was probably mosquito coils, which is was, as it had been raining for days and there were several bugs in the flat gathering at the lights. Only $75 total was refunded on a 2 night stay for a property that was uninhabitable before I arrived. And although I totally understand it was beyond their control, if you can't provide alternate options for situations like this such as a pump or giving the option of cancellation before arrival, you shouldn't be renting! And to refuse a refund is BEYOND my comprehension. I wouldn't have stayed the one night if wasn't already dark by the time we realized this would last more then a couple hours. I dared not to attempt those roads at night with all the construction. If I could give this experience a negative 5 I would!

Perfect Villa on the Edge of History
Sitting on the edge of the ancient Mayan ruins of Cahal Pech, Villa Maya offers tranquility and amenities that will make your Belizean stay quite comfortable. The home is immaculate, spacious, and comfortable. A/C in Belizean homes is a rarity, but this home boasts units in bedrooms and the great room. But the greatest part of this home is the huge veranda that catches the breezes and hands guests a peaceful perch close to the jungle. Across the street from Villa Maya is an elementary school, but the only noises coming from the area are the sweet sounds of laughter of the students....and mostly only for about 15 minutes before the bell rings! The villa is a bit tricky to find, but the roads are for the most part pretty good...Even in a downpour, the dirt road never became slippery or muddy! Remember to make a grocery and supply stop before arriving at the house...the owner offers a couple rolls of toilet paper and a roll of paper towels and a container of dish soap...other than that, there are no other supplies. There are dishes (most of the plates are not microwave friendly, so beware!), pots and pans, a washer AND dryer, and very nice furniture adorning the home. The fully-fenced yard is huge...big enough for a very nice pool...hint! hint!

Lovely home and property
Three of us stayed at this home for 4 nights. It is situated about a 10 minute drive from the downtown core of San Ignacio. The house is comfortable and spacious. It was wonderful to wake up and hear the birds singing and have a coffee on the patio. Security is good, the washer and dryer worked, there is lots of towels and the air conditioning made the house comfortable. However there is a lack of any pantry items, not even salt and pepper. The pots and pans are Teflon and scratched. I recommended replacing. The fridge was very loud and would wake us up. We were told the replacement part had been ordered so hopefully this is fixed soon. A local phone would have been nice as we did not have a cell phone. We did three excursions through River Rats and found them to be very, very good. Mauricio through Valdex Shuttle Service was great for transportation and Sergio through San Ignacio Shuttle Service was also a great driver. The house is a bit tricky to find and is located across from a school. If you are staying here, bring some school supplies as this would help out the children. All in all this place suited our needs and was a great way to start our holiday.

2 day San Ignacio Stay
Google maps did not tell us there was a new bridge and very nice highway near San Ignacio, but we found the property. We were met by Esmeralda who was charming and helpful with getting us settled in. She also helped us with planning zipline and tubing excursions. A grocery store is not far away and the home was very comfortable, clean, and cozy.

Great House
This is a beautiful house surrounded by lush vegetation. The kitchen and living areas are spacious and comfortable, and coffee on the deck in the mornings listening to the many kinds of birds singing is especially relaxing. The property manager and cleaner are very friendly and helpful, and made us feel at home. Just a couple of things to expect: If you've stayed at VRBO's before, you may expect some things in the kitchen such as aluminum foil, spices, etc. There are none of that type of thing here, so just be prepared to bring your own if you're planning on cooking. Otherwise the kitchen is wonderful, with great appliances and cookware, etc. Like many places in San Ignacio, this house might be a little hard to find the first time. The roads on all sides are dirt and can get kind of muddy if it rains. Again, this is typical of the region. 4 wheel drive is highly recommended if you're planning on driving in the area. Just be patient, though, and you'll eventually see the house. If we are ever back in this area, we would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful place! Close to everything you need!
We loved our stay! With the freedom to roam the jungle with our rental vehicle this was the perfect home base for our trip! The home is beautiful and easy to locate. Close to the centre of town, just a quick car drive or taxi. Had everything we needed to cook a few meals. Very secure and felt veey safe. We enjoyed every minute!
