We booked three nights here as recommended on lonely planet forum. First of all the hotel is so far away from everything!!! Then the pool stinks and is full of chemical you could always see white stuff on top the water. We had a booking for the cheapest room which was 36,4 USD. They never found our booking even I... More

As others have stated, the hotel was clean, a good value and a good place to stay while we did tours of Tikal (Maya Heart) and ATM cave (Pacz). The rooms were basic but ours had a/c, fresh paint and new tile. Plenty of hot water as well.The pool was cold and a little cloudy. Given our busy schedule and... More

Nothing too fancy but the rooms are clean, small pool for the kids to take a "dunk" and we found the seafood dinner very good. Staff at the Aguada are very friendly and accomodating. Previously owned by Bill and Cathy Butcher (just retired), the hotel is now owned and managed by their daughter "Shaloo" who is in the process of... More

Stayed at the Aguada for one week in November. It's not close to the city center, luckily we had a car so transportation was not an issue. I think we were the only guests for the week, so the service provided especially by Julia B was incredible. She was so hospitable and engaging. The rooms were decent, and cable tv... More

We stayed at the Aguada in January 2012. From the moment we walked into the restaurant/lobby we felt warmly drawn in. Rooms are simple but clean and easy to access. Such a relaxed atmosphere...coffee brewing in the morning, staff always available to answer questions and help us out. We had breakfast in the restaurant each morning...the menu had a little... More

Our stay was between Christmas and New Years 2011. It's in Santa Elana, right beside San Ignacio. Easy taxi access to town. The rooms are very affordable, ours was $45 and night, and $55 +tax is as high as it gets. The restautant has great food (the fried chicken and lime drink are GREAT.) You can dine inside or outside.... More

During our stay and trip in Belize this was one of the stops. We were traveling with a family and were sleeping in one room. The fridge was situated a little bit strange and when you were sleeping under the AC it was a little bit cold. The Breakfast was good but we went to San Ignacio for dinner. Martha's... More

The little white church across the street is totally Awesome - Bethany ROCKS!!!! My wife and I stayed here several times between July and August. It is a nice place and close to San Ignacio. The morning staff are really sharp, but some of the afternoon staff are sometimes a little clueless. I was to meet a business associate one... More

Thank you for your review. Yes indeed we are lucky to have several places of worship within our vicinity. In regards to miscommunication of your business associate, the hotel policy is not to offer any information concerning our guest unless notified (whether via phone or in person). I advise guest to notify the front desk if they are expecting visitors. More

This hotel might have received a higher rating if they were a little more guest considerate. It began with check-in … no one seemed to have a clue regarding our reservation.. fortunately the room type, queen bed with microwave and refrigerator we reserved was available. A bit later after checking out the room we requested a washcloth and were told... More
