Beautiful Home with Mountain Views and Pool

There is a lot of care put into the upkeep of this house, it’s incredibly clean, it’s beautifully appointed and quite welcoming. We felt very safe in the neighborhood and the house. I was in contact with Terry throughout the stay, any questions were answered immediately. They also offer tours, we did not take advantage of this simply because we had plans set already. It would have been a wonderful convenience otherwise. The rooms are big, the bathrooms spacious, hot water was plentiful. The pool is lovely, a welcome retreat after a long day of sightseeing. We really appreciated the ease of checking in and out. We had plenty of fresh towels. The washer and dryer were available for our use, that was a bonus after going on the ATM tour. We were welcomed with a few items in the fridge which we greatly appreciated. I would absolutely recommend the house and would stay there again, we’re already talking about a return trip.

We used the pool a lot, even at the end of December Sat around on the deck every night Bedrooms were cool and cozy Great view including yellow butterflies on backyard tree Large dining area Just perfect

We loved the property. Well stocked and clean. Terry is super responsive and helpful. We also did a tour of Xunantunich and ATM Cave tour with their company, Cayo Inland Expeditions, which were both great. Dimas was our tour guide for Xunantunich and it was our favorite experience. He was very knowledgeable and made the tour a highlight for us. You can walk to the downtown district from the house and can easily walk to Cahal Pech. We saw a toucan in the tree right by the house and enjoyed relaxing at the house. The kids got in the pool daily. Highly recommend!

Since the time of the reservation, our host was very helpful, attentive, and thoughtful through the email communication. Even after the cancellation of the reservation due to the tropical storm Sara, she was very sweet, helpful and understanding!! I would definitely recommend her and her property.

We had a wonderful time in San Ignacio. The check in was simple and the house was clean. We booked our excursions through the owners and received a discount. Onil was our tour guide for all the excursions we did and he was incredibly knowledgeable and fun. The pool was nice to lounge in after a full day of fun in the sun.

Spacious home, beautiful view, great hosts. Exactly what we needed for our stay in Cayo. Washer and dryer was a great unexpected bonus!

We had a wonderful stay in San Ignacio! Great city with lots to do in the area. This house was a perfect landing spot for our family. The house is spacious and comfortable for a family with kids. The pool is a major bonus as it helped us keep cool on hot days. Terry was wonderful to work with. She was responsive throughout our time there anytime we had questions. I highly recommend staying here to enjoy the San Ignacio area!

The property was great. It fit are needs. Terry was friendly and helpful. The wild fires smoke obscured any view we might of enjoyed(not the property fault). We would recommend it.

We stayed at Terry's house for a portion of our trip. The location was a ways up the hill which was perfect for us. The neighborhood was clean and quiet and the views were fantastic. After exploring the area during the day it was refreshing to comeback and watch the sunset from the pool.

Great location close to town and sites. Owner has a tour company-Cayo Inland Adventure tours which we used to go on excellent excursions. You get a discount if staying at the house. The house was clean with lots of amenities and a refreshing pool for cooling off during the hot days.

Our family of six (2 adults, 4 kids) stayed here for three nights in March 2024. The house had everything we needed. Wi-Fi worked well. There is a covered parking spot right by the entrance. The neighborhood felt very safe with a good amount of privacy. The highlight for our kids was the pool - it was just the right temperature and very clean. Although, we mostly drove to town to eat at restaurants, the kitchen seemed to be well equipped. Terry was a super nice, helpful, and communicative host. We would definitely stay here again.

This house was a perfect choice for our family of four. Terry was so gracious and helpful during our visit. We also booked two full days of tours with the hosts' company - Cayo Inland Expedition - and had two fantastic days. The pool in the backyard was great for cooling off after hot days, and we saw lots of wildlife from the deck too (green parrots, iguanas, and a Pygmy owl!) Easy walk into town for some great restaurants and it was quiet at night in the air conditioned bedrooms. Highly recommend this listing!

Our stay was perfect! Our host, Terry is wonderful and truly took care of us. Her home is cozy and exactly as pictured. My son and I enjoyed the hammocks as they are situated perfectly to immerse you in the natural surroundings. The bedrooms and bathrooms are spacious and well-appointed. In addition to welcoming us generously, Terry's tour company provided us with the kindest tour guides and reliable transportation to the house and she recommended the most amazing Maya site tour, Tikal, in Guatemala. Overall, just perfect - if it sounds too good to be true - I encourage you to discover for yourself!

As advertised . Close to everything . Pool was great for cool off after days activities

I have never felt so welcomed and at home at a vacation rental! Terry went out of her way to make sure we had tips, recommendations and everything we needed for the home and stay. Welcoming us with some local snacks and drinks and being just a call away if we needed anything at all. The location was amazing/ just blocks from groceries, gas station and town! The bedroom AC units kept us plenty chilly at night and the rest of the house had so much air movement it was always comfy! We wish we would have had another day or two to enjoy the country and the house amenities more! Staying in San Ignacio and with Terry were the highlight of our trip for all 7 of us from ages 4-76. Highly recommend!

It was great having the space to make a few meals, play cards, watch a movie and chill-out and take a dip in the pool after our days exploring the area. Helen's grocery store is conveniently close by. We had a vehicle which gave us the freedom to do day trips to nearby ruins, caves, waterfalls and butterfly conservatory. Terri was a great hostess.

The host went out her way to make us comfortable. The house had everything that one needed for a comfortable stay

Lots of beds for a big family. Very clean. Terry and John handled everything for us. Transportation, tours, and house. Very convenient!

Lovely property. Owners close by should quests need anything. Comfortable beds, laundry facilities on site. Beautiful view. Transportation easy to find or walking is a choice also. Pool was refreshing and a welcome cool off after visiting the ruins in Belize.

We enjoyed our stay here while in San Ignacio. We booked with Terry for our transportation to and from here which was great. Kids loved having the pool. We loved the location, was a little outside of the main area and still in walking distance. It was easy to get a taxi if needed.

We had an amazing time while in San Ignacio and Terry and Jo was amazing hosts! We highly recommend booking the ATM cave and Maya Ruins tour with them. Our guides we David and Hector. They were extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Also, booking through the VRBO allowed us to tour just the three of us so it was very personalized.

We loved staying here, and their ATM tour was fantastic

Enjoyed our stay at Hillside View House. Terry is wonderful and communicative. House is well maintained with all the necessities. Air conditioning in bedrooms only but it does a great job for comfortable sleeping. Would definitely stay again.

The house is comfortable and well stocked with everything needed. The host, Terry, is wonderful. She met us when we arrived and brought us some welcome items (local beer, soda, fresh bananas, plantain chips, etc). A nice touch to experience local items. She was helpful with recommendations and directions. The bedrooms are large and the AC worked great in each bedroom. The main part of the house has no AC, but there are ceiling fans and floor fans. Having access to a washer and dryer was very helpful as well. Great property and host!

We would highly recommend staying at Terry's house in San Ignacio. We are a family of 5 and it was wonderful to have space to spread out and to be able to use the fully stocked kitchen (with ample filtered water). The pool was lovely to cool off in and the hammocks on the two decks were also wonderful. The house itself was very comfortable and clean. The AC units in the bedroom were great and the fans in the living area made it a comfortable temperature. While not right in town there was a grocery store just down the hill and it was an easy 20 minute walk into the heart of town (uphill on the way back but a simple cab ride makes it a 5 minute drive away). We walked to the Cahal Pec ruins in 10 minutes (highly recommended) and got a taxi driver's number from Terry to pick us up and take us to the Xunantunich ruins (only a 15 minute drive away). We loved exploring them on our own, but you could also ask Terry to arrange a tour for you through her tour company. We had her tour company (Cayo Inland Expeditions) arrange our transfer from the water taxi to the house and back to the airport. We even had added a cave tubing tour on to our transfer and loved every minute! It made the travel from Caye Caulker to San Ignacio feel like a private tour and not just a travel day. Terry also arranged a day tour to Tikal for us. It was an amazing day and we would HIGHLY recommend it! Tikal was only 2 hours away. Everything went smoothly! We loved every minute of staying here!!

The house is a fantastic choice for staying in San Ignacio. It is spacious and well maintained. The highlights are the pool which was ideal for cooking off after a day sightseeing, and the views across the valley. The bedrooms are air conditioned and the house is very well equipped (it even has a kettle for us British tea drinkers!) It is in a quiet area with no traffic or 'human' noise but plenty of bird song. Terry, the owner, is very helpful and made our stay very enjoyable. Be aware that it is up a steep hill from the town. We did walk down on our first night (about 20 mins) but got a cab back ($20 BZ). We drove after that.

This is a 5 star set up.. The owner/host is amazing and took such good care of us. We did a couple of tours with them which could not have been easier and worth every penny. Do not hesitate to book as this could not have been more perfect...Thankyou so much for having us and this was a memory we will never forget... You are the best..

The house was as advertised. It was clean and the owner met us there upon arrival. It is close to town and shopping. The pool was clean and cool. The AC in the bedrooms worked great but to be clear there is no AC in the common areas. The owner Terry also owns Cayo Inland Adventures. We did the ATM tour one day and the river waterfall tour the next. They picked us up at the house for both. They were both great.

The house was very nice and the pool was a refreshing perk.

This house was more in every way than we ever expected! Terry checked in with us at least once daily and even took us into town for a special meal the last night. Her suggestions of what to do were right on. She is ultra professional as well as accommodating. The pool is pristine. Each bedroom has its own ac unit to customize. That John Paul runs a tour company cannot be understated. We have been to belize before but hands down rate these tours superior to prior tours. Onil, the tour guide, went far beyond what you might expect - he was educational and conversational not only for the tours but the transit to/from the airport and the longer rides to more distant sites. The highlight for us was his amazing knowledge of the caracol site and the Crystal cave. It's difficult to describe how much he invested in our family. We are so grateful.

Great communication with the host. Very welcoming with cold beer and soda and plantains waiting for us. Relaxing and refreshing pool for the afternoons. We were in San Ignacio during hotter than normal temps and the ac in the bedrooms were a lifesaver. Terrific location, close to town and great restaurants. We took several adventure tours from this location, which was super convenient as the owner lives next door. Very comfortable and clean. Would definitely recommend staying here.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Terry's & JP's home in San Ignacio. Although hot and humid during our stay, each bedroom has AC and the pool really helps keep things comfortable. While not within walking distance of the town center, it's an easy enough drive and the restaurants are well worth it. A grocery store is just down the hill, and we were able to fix many meals in house. Note that we had to drive around a bit to find the house and knowing what it looked like really helped. Best to arrive during daylight. Also, Terry and JP live in the house next door so issues can be quickly dealt with. In short, a great house to use as a base to explore the Cayo District (Terry can help there too with her excellent tour company).
