This was the highlight of our trip to Belize. As avid nature lovers who adore birds we were in heaven the five days we spent at Casa. The grounds were well maintained with an astonishing variety of local trees and flowering plants. The view looking north toward the rolling hills in the distance was enchanting. The cabana with its beautifully... More

This is a place I have visited several times. It's hard to know weather I should emphasis the quite peaceful nature of the grounds; the nature on the grounds; or the kind, friendly supportive staff. The grounds are open and provide great views of the area, while also being densely vegetated with beautiful flowering plants that attract great numbers of... More

The grounds are lovely with fruit and flower trees and a view of the valley that is beautiful. The cabanas were comfortable with tasteful furnishings and a modern bathroom with a large tiled shower. The bathrooms are the open concept, however; tall walls and door but no ceiling which might bother shy types. It wasn't a problem for us. Very... More

If you are looking for a relaxing vacation and would also like to help in preserving the bird life in Belize look no further. Our stay at the Casa was wonderful. The facilities are clean and comfortable. The rooms made from local materials and an exquisite thatched roof are airy and enjoyable. We ate at the Casa most days and... More

Want a quiet stay away from the hustle and bustle, yet conveniently located near several great ruins and birding hotspots? This is the place! Pleasant cabanas offer clean accomodations with great views of primary forest. The nature trail has informative plaques and the birding is exceptional. Don't forget to stop and say 'hello' to the lodge's namesake, Gringo the white... More

we highly recommend casa del caballo blanco! my husband and i stayed 3 nights at the casa while exploring the cayo and were really pleased with everything. the property is gorgeous -- looking out into the valleys and mountains of green rainforest was breathtaking -- and while the place is right off the main road, it's very isolated so it's...

San Ignacio is very rural and Cayo district, while lovely in its natural beauty is still developing financially. Travel to the Cayo is a bit of an adventure; but one that is very doable and recommended. The primary draws would be the nature (caving, hikes, animals) and the Mayan Ruins. But for my family, Casa del Caballo Blanco was a... More

As a couple in our 60s, we stayed at the Casa del Caballo Blanco, a recently-opened small lodge with seven “casitas” just outside San Ignacio, for five days at the end of January and enjoyed this quiet place with its attentive and kind staff very much. The property includes a marked walking trail for observing local fauna and flora, and... More

We recently returned from a phenomenal trip through the Cayo District of western Belize. While there we stayed at a wonderful lodge, Casa del Caballo Blanco. The grounds and buildings are immaculately maintained and built in a traditional style. The lodge is the perfect place from which to explore largely untouristed and unexcavated Mayan ruins. The lodge’s guide, Ricky Manzanero... More
