    Virginia, Ken, and Luis were exceptional hosts! We enjoyed being up on a hill with a breeze and a sparkling pool. It was private with gorgeous views of the hills. A great location with only a 10-minute drive into town. We would for sure stay here...

    Being able to order breakfast to make yourself in your room was incredibly helpful. Some days--we were being picked up at the villas at 8AM for excursions and it was really nice to have everything we needed in the room to cook ourselves a hearty,...

    We were greeted by Virginia, her friendly pups and 2 toucans upon arrival. The property is a 10/10. The view is stunning and sunsets are a must nightly. We stayed in cabin 4 and it was absolutely perfect! Literally spotless! The air conditioning...

    The owner and staff were amazing! The location is remote and has great forest and wild life and is less than 10 mins from San Ignacio center. The villas are modern and very clean and comfortable. The dark sky there if you are into stargazing is...

    The staff were very accommodating and the view was spectacular. Close to town, but still like a world away. The website does not do this retreat justice. Way above our expectations and wished we booked a longer stay.

    The sunsets at Villa Cayo must be among the best in the country. The grounds are stunning and very secluded, I highly recommend having a vehicle if you plan to stay here. The pictures don’t do this place justice, it’s spectacular.

    We loved this place. The room was just right for two. The kitchen had all that we needed to cook dinner the three nights we were there. Not too far from town.
  • Steven

    Wow. An extraordinary location in the hills above San Ignacio, away from the town noise and congestion, but a thirty minute walk or ten minute taxi ride to the center. Quiet, except for occasional dog barking, and so beautiful. We loved the...

Company info

What can be said about a couple in their 40's who packed up their life in the US and moved to the beach in Belize? Well, whatever you call them, that was us. We lived on the beach for almost 20 years and then in our 60's moved to CAYO District of Belize. We have been in Cayo since 2008 with our two rescue dogs and really like living in such a welcoming area. The outdoor living, the slower pace, and the huge farmers market gives us the ability to live a cheaper and healthier lifestyle, if we choose. Because Belize is such a small country, the beaches are not far away so, like in the states, we take a two hour trip to the beach where we can dive, snorkel or fish to our hearts content. We can even fly by helicopter or plane directly to the beaches from the local airport if we don't want to drive. Now we have our rental villas and provide tours of Cayo to potential expats. Our 30 years in BELIZE provide valuable information and our villas provide luxury accomodations in a jungle atmosphere. Come for a week and stay forever!
