We had a wonderful stay at Villa Boscardi. Francoise went above and beyond to help us. We had trouble getting a taxi and she picked us up from the hospital herself. I cannot recommend this B&B enough, the room was extremely comfortable and the breakfast was lovely. A great place to stay in Belize City.

Lulu United Kingdom

the place is really nice, a lot of attention was put to the details, the owner is very helpful

Tina Germany

What an incredible little find! All staff were so friendly - breakfast was brilliant! The owner was so nice and stayed to chat to us all the morning we were leaving and made sure our taxi was on the way to bring us to the airport. Such a lovely guest house and near to some nice restaurants

Ali Ireland

Very nice place, a bit out of the centre of the city which makes it very quiet. Very secure. The staff and owner and very friendly and the breakfast is really fantastic. I got there quite late but they recommended a nice little restaurant just a block away. Most people seem to stay for one night on the way to or from the airport. They helped me organise a taxi to get to the ferry terminal.

Sophie United Kingdom

I really loved the ladies that work there, from the owner to the employees, all of them super sweet and considerate. I'd go back just for them! Bed is comfortable, room is a good size and it's clean, and I agree with the other reviews AMAZING breakfast.

James Germany

Villa Boscardi is a lovely place for anyone looking to relax in a safe, comfortable and happy place for a few days. Mme Francoise and her team are gracious hosts who will help you plan your day trips and make most of your trip. Her housekeepers Pauline and Orfa will make sure you start your day with a delicious and filling breakfast and fresh juice and keep the villa and your room very clean. Pauline made something new for breakfast every single day and everything was homemade and fresh. I highly recommend this place and hope to be back soon!

Villa Boscardi has the reputation to always be well manicured. We try our best to have a clean, cozy, peaceful, tastefully decorated environment where our guests can have the pleasure to enjoy a restful time. Our rooms are each decorated uniquely, where comfort and facilities meet. We just have added a gorgeous Jacuzzi in our back garden for you to enjoy and relax. A lovely garden surrounds the home and give some private areas to talk or read a book. Centrally located between the center of town and the international airport, one hundred yards from the Caribbean Sea shores, neighbor to the Prime Minister's residence, and offering some attraction as the Belize Rum Museum, and a lovely side walk along the Caribbean Sea .
Hello, my name is Francoise Lays. I do have a long story but I reserve it for when you come in Belize City. I will still give you a little taste of it. Born in Belgium, my parents brought me to Rwanda (Central Africa) till the age of sixteen. Departed for Belgium then Khartoum - Sudan for 6 years, followed by Texas, United Stated of America, then Belize Central America, Turks and Caicos, London, Switzerland and return to our dear Belize where the "roots" grew!!. My passions are: travelling, meet people, interior design, ballet. environment,...I am curious and love to listen to people's life experience. Do speak English, French, Italian and Spanish.
Villa Boscardi is located North-West part of Belize City, one hundred yard from the sea shore of the Caribbean Sea where a leisured walk awaits for you. You will pass in front of the residence of our Prime Minister and go for a picture by the BELIZE sign made of giant letters. Having some free time, you can walk and visit our Belize Rum Museum stating all the different flavors of rum they do offer. With a quick taxi ride, you should not missed the visit of our Belize Museum which was a jail when I arrived in Belize City, the tour guided of the city always so interesting and fascinating. Please do not omit that Belize City, centrally located in the country, benefits of an easy access to the North, Est, South and West. With a short taxi ride you will visit Lamanai, Altun Ha (Mayan site), the Belize Zoo, the cave tubing and zip line, the west part of the country with Xunantunich, the Mennonite community, the ATM caves, or the short hop to Caye Caulker or San Pedro (Ambergris Caye), the inland Blue Hole,... But not only our history and beautiful tropical climate but the multitude of ethnic groups that live together in harmony makes us a little paradise scares to find now a days,
