“Stayed here 3 nights”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 January 2012

Stayed here 3 nights. I opted for air conditioning which I used. I don't know if she was the owner or manager, but she was very nice and always responded to my e-mails and gave good recommendations for places to eat. It was not noisy, I asked for a quiet room so the room was in the back.
I was able to catch a ride from Tikal to the hotel with the Tour Guide that has an office in the hotel for $25. He was helpful in crossing the border. I found out that if you don't want a tour, you can catch a ride with tour guides to Tikal for $25 and do the ruins on your own.
Be careful in doing the Tours that go into the caves after a big rain fall. I talked to several girls who did the ATM Tour after a big rain fall and the one cave filled up with water pretty fast. Everything turned out fine, but it was frightening.

Room Tip: Ask for a quiet room. There are stairs. There is a kitchen, but we didn't use it. If you have...

“Great! Just like being at grandma's house”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 January 2012

Stayed here two nights. It was clean, well kept, good security. I had their laundry service which was very quick and came back very clean and folder. Wifi is good, across the road from a great cafe. Would come back!

Loved having the kitchen and living room area. Loved the flute player in the evening. Enjoyed watching everything from the balcony. And very convenient to get on Elias's trip to Tikal.

Pubic market, taxis, French bakery are a block away. Great spot. Totally safe.

“Stepping back in time - loved it”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 November 2011

Maybe a bit too close to loud music from other establishments but still a huge recommend .
Rooms are basic but spacious & very clean. AIr con is available at $20 US a night but fan was ok in November.
Comunal fridge plus tea & coffee making facilities a nice extra. Communal kitchen probably very welcome sight to people who have been travelling extensively before arriving here.
Very secure, very quaint, very good.

“Home Away From Home”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2011
1
person found this review helpful

I loved my stay at Casa Blanca Hotel. My husband first discovered it when in Belize on business, and he enjoyed it so much he stayed there 2 weeks. And that says a lot right there (if you knew my husband). Run by Betty Guerra and her mother, from the moment you walk in you will be made to feel right at home! The Guerra family has a very interesting history in Belize, and Mr. Guerra (now deceased), was once the mayor of San Ignacio. The location is excellent - right on Burns Ave, which is the main street of downtown. The security gate is always locked, and guests have their own key to enter the premises. Guests share a community livingroom and kitchen, complete with fridge and cooking area (kitchen fully equipped). The rooms have cable TV, some have A/C, all have private bathrooms with hot water showers. The entire hotel is spotless clean. A balcony faces the front street, and guests can sit outside, enjoy a cold beer and watch the comings and goings on Burns Avenue. It is also just a few doors down from the police station, and this part of town boasts little crime. Within walking distance of the Macal River, the saturday market (the best in Belize), grocery stores, shopping, restaurants, 5 minute walk from the theatre, many tour operators within 2 or 3 minutes, and just a five minute short walk from the bus terminal! Casa Blanca also received an award for the "Best Little Hotel in Belize" a few years ago (awarded by the Tourism Board of Belize) - which says a lot right there! All in all, I highly recommend you check out Casa Blanca for your next San Ignacio visit! You will be glad you did!
