The house was a lovely place. I felt very much at home. It's in a great location and very convenient to get to the grocery store, restaurants and all of the fun area that Belize had to offer. Kera is the perfect host, very friendly. She answered all of our questions and was very helpful with directions. I would definitely come back to her beautiful place. John and Kay ##### John E.

We were expecting a well kept guest house with easy access to San Ignacio based on the listing details. There were a few items not quite as advertised that resulted in a less than stellar stay. The house is not fully air conditioned, only the bedrooms have window units which left us uncomfortably warm in the kitchen and living room areas. We paid a significant cleaning fee but when we arrived, the house was dirty and needed vacuuming of rugs and floors. There were no coffee filters for the coffee pot so we used paper towels to make coffee. The house seemed recently converted into a rental property, walls were painted only halfway up wall, light fixtures were burned out, the tub was filthy and we didn't want to put our bare feet in it. There was only a single sheet on each bed with no blankets available in the house. The WIFI did not work when we arrived requiring a visit by property owner and technician. The door to patio was jammed/locked requiring a separate visit by property owner and repairman. The patio overlooks an overflowing dumpster and stray dogs wandered around and barked throughout the night. The hillside view is of power-lines and neighboring fences and houses. The house itself is located in a remote, lower-end neighborhood in Santa Elena. The only nearby restaurant is a fast food burger place and you must cross the busy Western highway to get to it and the grocery store. The town of San Ignacio is a 29 minute walk (Google says 27 min.), not 10 minutes as advertised. It is not walkable, especially along the highway at night, you must have a car or taxi. Kera is trying hard to make this a desirable rental but there are many things to be addressed before it's a comfortable rental for the price being asked. ##### Christin C. ### 8/10 Good #### Cornelis K., Lafayette, CO 31 Dec 2018 #### Convenient family lication for exploring nearby Maya temples We stayed here mainly to visit Mayan temples in the region. There are 2 super markets in a 2 min walking distance and because we had a rental car we did not mind not being closer to downtown San Ignacio. It is not that far, but for walking it is. The house had all needed facilities and functioning appliances, but don’t expect modern state of the art US style appliances. Overall good value for money. ##### Cornelis K. Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2018 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Leslie G. 20 Sept 2016 #### Perfect Location! I loved the view! Perfect hilltop location, nice and quiet with easy access to the town's nightlife. The place was fully furnished and the beds were beyond comfortable. Definitely staying here again! ##### Leslie G. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Puerto Vallarta](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Puerto-Vallarta-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d180016-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Relais & Châteaux Heritage Madrid](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Madrid-Hotels-Relais-Chateaux-Heritage-Madrid.h18184736.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Waltham Abbey](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Waltham-Abbey-Hotels-Waltham-Abbey-Marriott-Hotel.h691229.Hotel-Information) > > [Avli Lounge Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rethymno-Hotels-Avli-Lounge-Apartments.h2946933.Hotel-Information) > > [3HB Faro](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faro-Hotels-3HB-Collection-Faro.h58913383.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in Basel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Basel-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d6050770-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Eltina Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Malia-Hotels-Eltina-Apartments.h34029928.Hotel-Information) > > [5 Star Hotels in Bangor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/5Star-Bangor-Hotels.s50-0-d5611.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Bellevue Suites](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Agios-Nikolaos-Hotels-Bellevue-Suites.h34124683.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hyatt Kochi Bolgatty](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kochi-Hotels-Grand-Hyatt-Kochi-Bolgatty.h20141582.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Brick Lane](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brick-Lane-Hotels.0-l6159621-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [UK Blue Coast Hotel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels-UK-BLUE-COAST-HOTEL.h89532996.Hotel-Information) > > [Golf Hotels in Fort Lauderdale](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Golf-Hotels.0-0-d601750-tGolfHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) ### Flights > [Flights from London (LHR) to Vadodara (BDQ)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/bdq/london-to-vadodara) > > [easyJet Gatwick (LGW) to Marrakech (RAK) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/easyjet-from-gatwick-to-menara/u2/lgw/rak) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Chiang Rai (CEI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/cei/london-to-chiang-rai) ### Activities > [Things to do in Tropea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Tropea.d601704.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Tashkent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Tashkent.d3368.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Thun](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Thun.d5503.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Black River Gorges National Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Black-River-Gorges-National-Park-Mauritius.d6075550.Attraction) > > [Rhineland-Palatinate Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rhineland-Palatinate.d6049387.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Madurodam](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Madurodam-Scheveningen.d6064223.Attraction) > > [Pirate Pete's Family Entertainment Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pirate-Petes-Family-Entertainment-Centre-Ayr.d6274383.Attraction) > > [Bradford City Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bradford-City-Hall-Bradford.d553248621532494056.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Vatra Dornei](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vatra-Dornei.dx6141185) > > [Visit Studio City](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Studio-City.dx9758)
