    Great place to stay with friendly hosts. Villa Cayo is only a few 3.5K from San Ignacio which is great for restaurants, shops and grocery stores. Located on a hill above the tree line gives you the jungle feel with great sunsets. A well maintained...

    The villa owners are the kindest people! When we had ants in our room (due to heavy rain so not the villa’s fault), they swiftly moved us to a new room. They also offered great tips and were overall very sweet.

Company information

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!
