Cahal Pech Village Resort Review

Once you make it up the steep hill, you'll enjoy the best views in the Cayo at this hotel set on a high hill at the western edge of San Ignacio, near the Cahal Pech Mayan site. Local owners Daniel and Miriam Silva opened the hotel in 1994 and have been expanding and improving it ever since. The latest additions are cottages and rooms and a gorgeous two-level swimming pool, watched over by a giant statue of a pterodactyl. There's another pool as well. You have a choice here of thatch cabañas or rooms, all air-conditioned and with cable TV. The restaurant, while a little more expensive than those in town, serves tasty Belizean and American fare (such as grilled fish, pork chops, spaghetti, and steaks) in an open-air space with views of the valley below. Cahal Pech offers a variety of tours and multiday packages. This hotel is often heavily booked even off-season.
