15mins walk into the main street of San Ignacio. Fridge , AC and hot water in the shower. Acres of space for parking. Simple room but very clean and excellent for us - we stayed an extra night. There is an (expensive) supermarket on the corner opposite to buy things for breakfast - as long as you don't want alcohol of any sort! This place suited us down to the ground. No qualms whatsoever about staying here again should we return.

The host was super kind and went above and beyond to accommodate me and my mother after we had a terrible experience at Kane Villas, which was overpriced and vacant with no host or hostess. I recommend staying at Pine Ridge Lodge over anywhere else in this area. The facility is super clean, off the grid, and the staff makes you feel comfortable and at home. You can't go wrong staying at Pine Ridge Lodge if you are ever in the mountains of San Ignacio, Belize! The creek behind the rooms is a pleasant sound to fall asleep and wake up to! :) Two thumbs up!!!!

Great location at the top of the hill and right beside Cahal Pech. The restaurant food was amazing. The pool was great. The staff were very helpful and friendly. They filled up our water bottles when we left and provided us transport down the hill on a very hot day, which was very appreciated.

Location was fantastic. Very central, and not noisy.
Air conditioning was very good - cooled the room down quickly, and was quiet! Considering the highs of +43C, this was very much appreciated!
Front desk staff were friendly and helpful.
Access to the butterfly reserve and pool at the Midas hotel (20 minute walk away) was much appreciated.

The hostel is very cute with the big tree in the lobby giving a sort of tree house vibe. We had private room, and it was spacious and with a/c! The location was great. There is a kitchen with everything you need. And Linda (a staff member) was such a nice person!

Good place to base with lots of activities close by. We didn't spend much time in the town itself as we stayed slightly out of town center so cannot comment on restaurants and such. Good street food. Good grocery shopping to stock up.

We spent 2 full days there. The first day we went to the local Mayan ruins of Cahal Peche and Xanantunich and the second we went cave tubing with Bellizean Caving Expeditions. Both were amazing experiences. If we had an extra day we would have loved to see the Mayan city of Carocal which is further away from town.

If you're looking for quiet and remote, then this is your place. There isn't much to do here. Thank God for the Casinos. They gave me something other than staring at the hotel walls to do.
Visiting the Mayan ruins of Xunantunich, was great. But you definitely want to take the taxi from the ferry to the top of the hill, if you're not in good shape.
Just a little way up the road is a restaurant named Sweet & Sour. The food was very good. I just wasn't feeling the cow foot soup. Lol.
Although lots of advertisement says public transportation is available. However, unless you want to spend a small fortune, you absolutely need a car and a working cell phone for the GPS.
The people in Belize were very helpful and friendly. It was great that most of them spoke English. This was a huge plus.
The poverty here was heart breaking. I'm glad that I had an opportunity to visit. But I doubt that I will be going back any time soon.

The only thing that was horrific about this place was the hair braiding woman whose small shop is directly left from The Spot restaurant which is on the opposite side of the Venus hotel. The woman is violent. She gave us a big spill about how awful my daughters hair extensions were and that she would take it out and do it again. She said she would do it for 50USD. We accepted as she seemed like a nice lady but how wrong we were. She took the extensions out but then said she couldn’t remove the beads in my daughters hair and would need to leave them in. My daughter was horrified so I then had to bite every single one of them out myself. She then cut a three inch chunk of my daughters hair which is right on the crown. We told her we didn’t want her doing it and she bullied us to carry on. She then side platted my daughters natural hair and made a huge plaitted bump and then sowed the hair into the plait leaving a huge surplus of the hair extensions hanging. My daughter was so distraught and started crying and begged her to stop. She then took a 12 inch kitchen knife from her handbag and pepper spray on her key ring and said we must giver her the money. It was such a scary experience. Please please avoid this woman at all costs. We then complained to authorities whom explained she was mentally unstable. They wanted us to file a police report to have her arrested but we just wanted to leave the area.

Easy to navigate on foot.
Easy to navigate on foot.
The market is a must see for especially the food that is available throughout the day.
Just like any other place, be careful at night time when walking downtown. We did feel very safe.
Have bug repellents ready at night.
-The dorm I stayed in was spacious enough and had comfortable beds with curtains, lockers and sockets
-Enough toilets + showers (at least when I was there I never had to wait)
-WiFi worked well (also in the dorm)
-Nice outside/patio area
-Very good location in San Ignacio close to the bus stop, shops and restaurants + also the ruïnes are within walking distance
-Free drinking water (although the tanks were empty most of the time)
-Very friendly staff
-I could pay with creditcard without extra charge
Self catering accommodation. Large family room. Use of kitchen. Water and coffee was provided free.
The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating, even collected us from local airstrip for a few $ and also offered to do the laundry for a small fee!
Easy walking distance into main town of San Ignacio where there was plenty of restaurants, bars, cafés, huge market on Saturday, smaller during the week. Tour operators collected us from the hotel. Highly recommend.
The location of Venus hotel could not have been any more central. It was supremely comfortable and staff were welcoming. The bonus was the balcony across the length of the hotel, just outside our room, that overlooked the town square. Loved it! Oh, and another bonus, that we took full advantage of, was the free use of the pool at their sister hotel, which was about a 10 minute walk away. We went hard in the morning, then relaxed by the pool in the afternoon.
Room is basic but comfy. Food is simple but delicious. It’s not a full service restaurant but they try their best to cater to your needs.
Dominic is a wonderful host and loves to spend time getting to know his guests. We really enjoyed our day out with the local tour guide he recommended, as well as the shuttle company that got us to San Ignacio and back to the airport.
Nearly everything! The location was very convenient near Cahal Pech and downtown. The restaurant had excellent food and service. But the best part was the people! Paula was an exceptional hostess, providing great recommendations for food and travel. They also made muffins every day to leave in the room. You could tell this staff takes pride in the property and your experience.
Great place to stay as right in town. Easy place to hire canoed...Tony just by the wooden bridge 35 Belizean for a day in a doe canoe.
Easy to get to the Mayan ruins on the local bus...cheapest and best option so you can spend quality time in the ruins.
Good atmosphere on the hostal and lots of places to socialize and hammocks to enjoy.
Chena was hands down the nicest person and best host. Honestly this is my first review for anything ever so that alone should tell you something... Book it, you wont regret it. Perfect location, very relaxing, no frills stay, Chena bends over backwards to ensure you stay is amazing! Thanks!!
Neil and his crew are the best. You feel like you are visiting a friend, at the same time in this place you get to enjoy the serenity and peace.the food is homemade and delicious.the location is perfect for all the major activities around the area.
Very clean and attention to details with everything, really felt like home. And the staff is really great. It's very quiet. 5 mins away you can see great mayan ruins, the best I've seen so far, and an amazing sunset.
Very nice and friendly owner of the property provided us with an excellent services and the BEST ever VEGAN breakfast :) She was very helpful in all ways. The stay here was one of the most beautiful experience
The views to the mountains/valleys from the pool and our cabin were the best. I remember thunderstorms in the horizon and it was mesmerizing.
A lot of food and drink options and they offer a lot of activities.
i love the scenery and such a peaceful place. The staff are so amazing and super friendly ! i can’t wait to go back it is definitely worth going back . Customer service at its best :)
The location of the hotel was great for our family. Near restaurants and the bus stops, it made for easy planning. The room’s A/C unit and ceiling fan made for cool sleeping.
