San Ignacio, Belize: Midas Resort

One of the places that I've really enjoyed and gotten to know is Midas Resort. This is where I'm staying right now. These people are absolutely wonderful. It's less than a seven minute walk from downtown San Ignacio, Belize just on the edge of town. You will not find any $450.00 USD a night hotel rooms here. However if you are on a budget or are looking place for a few weeks, this is a nice, clean, safe place to call home.

Midas Resort is owned by Maria Preston and Michael Preston. Maria is Michael's mother by the way. The rentals vary from rooms with common baths, cabanas, cabins, and the new suites. All are available with or without air conditioning. I think prices range from $45.00 to $75.00. Overall it's shaded and quiet. The staff is exceptionally friendly too. Midas Resort only serves breakfast but many restaurants deliver and downtown is a short walk.

Don't expect concierge service but I have personally seen the staff go way out of their way to help their guests. They'll arrange tours, place calls, and offer advice on getting around. It's definitely a family friendly atmosphere too. They'll serve beer but I've never seen anyone dancing on the tables.  It's really hard to do find anything wrong with this place.  Dollar for dollar I think you'd be hard pressed to find a better value in Cayo District.
