Villa CAYO is to the jungle what Condos are to the beach. These air-conditioned, fully equipped, luxury boutique villas provide comfortable, affordable accommodations on a private 12 acre estate focused on ecotourism. Located just 1 ½ mile from the twin towns of San Ignacio and Santa Elena with auto rentals, taxis and bus service easily available making this a perfect vacation destination. The villas are nestled on a terrace overlooking the Village of Cristo Rey Village and the Maya mountains. From the observation deck of the main villa you can see Spanish Lookout and the surrounding countryside. While on the roof veranda you could also be greeted by some of the 225 birds known to occupy the jungle canopy in the Cayo district. Particularly friendly you could be greeted by the Aricaris checking to see if you might have a papaya to share with them. At night the local kinkajou or coatamundi could be in the trees eating the seeds and nuts. Waking up to the jungle mist and the sounds of the chacalaca and parrots can be one of the greatest jungle experiences. The BBQ area is located on a hillside terrace under tall Salam trees that offer food to many of the birds and wildlife of our area. There is a conversation and observation deck available for all of our guests to use. The villas kitchens are fully equipped to allow cooking for special diets or to avoid the high cost of resort dining or local restaurants. There are baking sheets for roasted vegetables, crock pots for slow cooking and a BBQ area for grilling. This excellent location is close to most of the Maya sites, zip lines, caves and cave tubing. The friendly owners can help you arrange your adventure tours. They will strive to make your eco-adventures a safe and relaxed experience without any hidden charges. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the villa: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car recommended - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Music library - TV with cable/satellite channels - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (limited availability) - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Casino nearby - Ecotours nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 450 square feet ## Similar properties ![Bar (on property)](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/104000000/103370000/103362100/103362027/5d9bed36.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### The West House Boutique Hotel San Ignacio - Parking included - Free WiFi - Air conditioning - Bar 9.6 Exceptional 39 reviews CA $199 CA $221 total includes taxes & fees Oct 26 - Oct 27 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-26&endDate=2025-10-27&selected=103362027&PinnedHotelID=103362027&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Smart TV](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/106000000/105290000/105289100/105289081/463787b0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Elena\`s Jewel - Modern 2BR Home San Ignacio - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 10 Exceptional 5 reviews CA $152 CA $234 total includes taxes & fees Oct 13 - Oct 14 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-13&endDate=2025-10-14&selected=105289081&PinnedHotelID=105289081&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109320000/109317600/109317505/3b994316.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Cozy cabin near San Ignacio Town w/AC, Wi-Fi, 2 beds, very close to everything.
