Nabitunich

YES

Dominic the owner and his staff were amazing. We arrived way early and they went above and beyond to get our room ready. Having breakfast included was very nice and the option to have dinner at a reasonable price was even better. Getting to St. Ignacio was a breeze, with conectivos going by just across the main road. Having easy access to the river was fantastic A couple of doors up there is a horse stables and they have spectacular horseback riding excursions. This was a nice getaway from the city and to enjoy the peace and serenity of the town.

Very genuine and authentic vibe. Excellent value.

The staff are so kind and the environment is so unpretentious! Dominic is a great person to talk to and he is very accommodating.

Dominic is a wonderful, friendly host. Nabitunich a great rate for a tranquil place to stay. We were upgraded to a nicer, bigger room since there was a cancellation, so we truly appreciate that! Being able to eat dinner on site and the home cooked breakfasts are plus as well.

Amazing hosts. Super friendly. Feels more like staying with family or friends than staying in a hotel.

The hotel is on a ranch and rooms were rustic; however it had the comfort of a hotel - great air conditioning and fan … comfortable separate beds, for 3 woman. The bathroom was big and equipped with toiletries not fancy but everything we could use. It gave authentic feeling of being on the ranch. The views were amazing. Breakfast was delicious and we also ate dinner there one evening. Delicious! But the best of the whole experience was the owner Dominic … had to keep one of my friends that she couldn’t take him back in her luggage! Will definitely recommend and love to return!

Amazing host, lovely rooms and location if you can get there!

We loved the beauty. The staff and food were incredible. Great location (although hard to find in the dark since the highway had construction). This place is wonderful

We loved it!!!

Just beautiful! Very friendly, accommodating management, incredibly gorgeous grounds and surrounding areas.

Staff was very nice. Rooms were slightly uncomfortable. Dinner was not bad

Nabitunich is a mixture of a hotel with cabins and a Homestay. Dominik the owner of the hotel and working farm was there to greet us and show us around. The cabins are simple and rustic but with all amenities incl. a water cooker. Some cabins have AC and others don’t (yet). Bed was very comfortable and the room and bathroom were clean. Breakfast and dinner (if ordered) is served in the homestyle dinning room. Good place to exchange experiences and suggestions with other guests. The food was simple but good. Dominik was very helpful in suggestion day tours and finding guides if needed. We rented a 4x4 SUV at the airport in Belize and drove. We also used our car to visit the sights. In the dry season that works well. Others came by shuttle or taxi and were picked up for their guided tours. A car (either your own or a taxi) is needed to go into town. It about a 15 min drive to San Ignacio. We had a great authentic stay and would definitely stay there again.

Everyone and everything was amazing. Felt like home away from home.

A hidden, unique location complete with knowledgeable, personable, engaging host. Hot breakfast with local ingredients, meaningful conversations, cozy commons area. Arrived during a hot spell, but fans made it bearable. all in all a recommended base to explore western belize!

Outstanding service. Quiet. Comfortable. This property was so peaceful and beautiful and restful. It was just what we needed after a long day of traveling. Dominic was so helpful and social. He’s a really nice man. They have drinking water in the common room and they have dinner family style. The room was clean and even had tea and snacks and a hair dryer! I’ll be back someday! Highly recommended.

Nabitunich is a beautiful place to stay! I would have loved to have stayed longer.

Beautiful and relaxing.

Nabitunich is a destination on its own right, worth making the trip to Belize. It is a place with a heart and character. It felt like a rural heaven on Earth. Location: don't let the fact that it is outside of town dissuade you- getting here is very easy because the property is on the main highway to the border with Guatemala. From Belize city you can take any bus going to Flores, Benque or San Ignacio and stop at San Ignacio/Benque and take a cheap taxi from there or ask to be stopped at the road leading to Nabitunich, like we did. We also asked the bus to take us from the nearby Mopan Gas Station for our onward journey to Flores in Guatemala. The fact that it's outside towns means you have piece and quiet and lots of space to go for walks and lots of wildlife. San Ignacio town didn't look great, so we had no desire to even go there. There is a lot to do around Nabitunich- we rented horses with a guide to go to the nearby Mayan historic site along the river, which was a great experience and we highly recommend it. There are also different walking paths in the forrest and along the river to go for safe walks. Finally- the person running the place Dominic made our stay extra special- he is super friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour and it was a pleasure spending time with him. Thank you for our stay, Dominic! Also thank you to all the warm and hardworking staff of Nabitunich who made sure the who place is clean, beautiful and who cooked the food.

I have travelled to over 80 countries. Stayed in thousands of low to mid range accomodations. I am not exaggerating when I say Nabitunich was the best. Dominic and his family were incredible hosts along with his amazing staff. Ive never felt so sad to leave an accomodation. A 10 minute walk to the river for great swimming and a little fishing. Walking amongst the cows, sheep, horses, was awesome. We even made great friends with the family pets. If you walk to the left at the river about 20 minutes you arrive in a protected area with howler monkeys. We saw 8 and even a mama & baby. On the property we saw fireflies, hummingbirds, and Toucans. The mayan ruins of Xunatunich is mere minutes away. We stayed 3 nights. We bought the package that included dinner for only another $9USD for 3. Food was excellent and aithentic. The common areas were amazing and Dominic was always engaging guests in conversation which led to everyone making quick friends. Rooms were clean. The farm has been in the family since before WW1. Thank you Dominic & family. You truly live in a magical destination. From the bottom of our heart our family thanks you & wishes you all the best.
