Ken and Virginia were super helpful. They assisted us with setting up tours, providing directions to places and gave us advice on car rentals and dinner spots. The cottages were nicely decorated and had quality construction, which is often rare for central America. And the setting was amazing!

First, I will say that Ken and Virginia went above and beyond to not only make us feel welcome, but to help us get there! We drove in from Belize City a little late after our luggage didn't arrive and we ended up getting to San Ignacio after dark. Google Maps couldn't figure out where to go and we were completely lost in the dark and in a foreign country. Ken and Virginia jumped in their vehicle and met us down the road from Villa Cayo and escorted us up to the property. After a long flight, delays and lost luggage, their hospitality made it all better. Once there, Virginia walked us through the entire condo and answered all of our questions. She even has a list of recommended places to go/eats and cab drivers! It was great to not have to think about that after a long travel day. The condo itself is beautiful. Love that you can drink the water without worry, the kitchen is stocked with anything you need, the bathroom is gorgeous and the views are breathtaking! Truly a find in the jungle of Belize! Ken and Virginia were the most lovely hosts. They honestly care about their guests and went above and beyond to be there for us. They met the cab driver when our luggage finally appeared the second day at 9pm, they kept track of us and their other guests as we came and went to ensure we made it back safely each day and enjoyed our adventures. Oh, and they have the most adorable rescue pups on the property. They are the sweetest dogs! We headed to San Pedro after our stay in San Igancio thinking the beach is what we would rave about upon getting home but honestly, the jungle has our hearts. It is beautiful, peaceful, safe and the people are amazing. We loved each day we spent there and plan to go back and maybe buy a few acres of our own. Thanks again to Ken and Virgina. We plan to see you again soon if you will have us back!

My girlfriend and I stayed here from Jan 24-27, 2017. We actually planned the start of our trip around a 3 night opening we found in their schedule. Delaying the anticipated start date of our trip to Belize proved to be a great decision once we arrived at Villa Cayo. The accommodations were phenomenal and definitely lived up to our expectations and more. The villa was very clean and comfortable and had a gorgeous bathroom/shower with good water pressure. Although we were busy during our time in San Ignacio, we made every effort possible to simply unwind and spend time at our villa. We bought groceries at Chen's supermarket (recommended by Ken and Virginia) to make breakfast before our ATM cave adventure and our last morning before checkout. We had everything we needed to make a great meal and it was so relaxing to enjoy a meal outside with such spectacular views. We took some of the best sunset pictures with the landscape/mountains in the background! Ken and Virginia were the best hosts we could've asked for. We arrived late after a long day of travel and they greeted us to help with luggage and made sure we were comfortable. They provided recommendations on anything we needed including restaurants, taxis, planning day trips, etc. and even gave us a ride into town our first morning there with a personalized tour of town. They were always available to help and made a great effort to ensure we had a worry free and memorable stay :) Ken and Virginia connected us with a taxi driver named Jose who we ended up arranging a shuttle with after checking out our last morning and beginning our Journey to San Pedro. Jose was super friendly with a great personality; highly recommend him even just for local rides to and from town. Do your self a favor and stay here!! 3 nights is not enough. Before we even left, we were already contemplating our next trip back to stay at Villa Cayo to potentially do a day trip to the Tikal Ruins in Guatemala! Thanks Ken and Virginia!!!

Our stay at Villa Cayo was a fabulous experience. The unit is the best equipped place we've stayed in the 15 years plus we've used VRBO. The kitchen had everything you could want for your stay. All appliances were first rate. The shower, bathroom and hot water system are well designed. The best thing was the king size bed was very comfortable, which is a big deal for us. Ken and Virginia could not have been more welcoming, friendly or helpful. The Crave restaurant which was their number one recommendation for dinner was a great dinning experience. The fact that it is a studio Villa does not do the place justice, it's more Villa than studio. Overall this was a great stay and experience, I can't say enough about how much we enjoyed Villa Cayo. We will return.

Wow, wow, wow! Villa Cayo is an awesome place to stay! I enjoyed myself, felt safe, and felt comfortable staying there. First, the panoramic view and sounds of nature is breathtaking. Next, the modern conveniences available made my stay very comfortable. Finally, Ken and Virginia were so gracious and welcoming. They made me feel like family. Upon my arrival, Virginia took me to San Ignacio, gave me a tour of town, took me to the market, and made sure I was good to go. She also assisted me in the coordinating of transportation and tours for my adventures in Cayo. I had nice conversations with Ken and got to meet their dogs too. It's good to stay in a place where you feel treated very well. I would highly recommend staying at Villa Cayo. Thank you Virginia and Ken!

My partner John and I had a wonderful time in San Ignacio! Ken and Virginia are delightful, they pre-booked us with a local guide, David, who took us on a tour of Barton Creek Cave and to Big Rock Falls. David, a local of Mayan and Jamaican decent, is extremely knowledgable of the area, plants, history etc. Ken and Virginia provided us with additional information of where to go in the area, ruins, good super markets, etc. Great people, we would definitely stay there again! A beautiful view from the sitting area and our villa, hummingbirds at our window, many birds including parrots flying by, and great sunsets! Very peaceful, we loved it.

From the moment we arrived and were greeted by Virginia we knew we were in good hands! We couldn't wait to return to our place every night and watch the sunset, the views are amazing! Virginia even recommended places to eat, taxi drivers and tour companies so that was super helpful! We used Mr. Biaz for our taxi driver and he was amazing! We cannot wait to go back!!

We were met at the property by Virginia and Ken. After dumping our bags, Virginia took us to town for a tour, grocery shopping and bank ATM. The view from the villa is stunning and we could see Guatemala. The villa was cleaned daily, and hibiscus flowers were left on the bed. The kitchen is totally equipped and my husband cooked all our meals. The BBQ works well too. Everything in the villa is top notch from the design to the furnishings. Air conditioning was welcome in the heat and humidity. Both Virginia and Ken were a wealth of information about the area. It is a convenient 10 minute bus ride from San Ignacio.

Virginia and Ken went out of their way to acclimate us to the area...going so far as to drive us thru town while pointing out points of interest, good eats etc. They went beyond to even assist in scheduling tours, transportation and offering great insight to options to spend our time effectively to see and do as much as possible in the time we had. Very much enjoyed our stay!

San Ignacio is a wonderful small town. There were many activities to do and a variety of places to dine. The villas are 5 star. Everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided. Even though there were plenty of places to choose from to dine, we ate breakfast in the villa just about every morning. It is quite pleasant to watch the sun come up while viewing the jungle and valley just steps from our front door. The villa and property are very clean and maintained well. During the day while we were out, the villa was cleaned thoroughly allowing us to return from a long day to watch the most beautiful Belizean jungle sunsets. Belize is a beautiful country with very nice and welcoming people. We look forward to returning to Belize and Villa Cayo.

We have been coming to Belize for 5 yes. This by far has been our best accommodations. So convenient and close to town, yet so quiet and peaceful without having to take a long trip into the jungle. Virginia has built beautiful cabins and placed them perfectly on the mountain to provide you amazing views to wake up to. She is also so willing to share her years of advice from living here. Trust me you will not be disappointed when you stay here, I know we will be back.

We stayed here for 4 nights in July , We would highly recommend this property ! The owners, Virginia and Kenneth were so helpful , they even helped us book a trip to Tikal in advance of our arrival. Not to mention the tour of the town and restaurant / activity recommendations. The villa was incredible, very comfortable with a well stocked kitchen and stunning views. We would return to this property anytime!

I can not say enough nice things about Cayo Villa. The actual villas are so nice. The view is amazing. The bed is comfortable and nice sized. The shower is great. Virginia has stocked the kitchen with utensils, pots, pans, blender, and coffee maker. She has thought of absolutely everything you can need. Daily maid service is also a huge bonus. We will be back!

Perfect stay at Villa Cayo. Villa is stocked with everything you need. Very comfortable. View is amazing. Owners very nice people, helped with anything needed at the villa as well as tips for the surrounding area. TV and internet best ever (7 previous stays in Belize) Good location for many things to do. Would definitely recommend and stay there again.
