[San Ignacio, Belize] Hotel Highlight: Midas Belize Resort
San Ignacio is the second largest city in Belize (after Belize City) in what is known as the Cayo District. This is the first resort on my #BelizeIt Resort Crawl.
Midas is a family-owned business and resort. The entire family is adorable. You may be able to catch some of them in the kitchen for breakfast. Anyway, the name Midas comes from a combination of family names but the wink to Midas Automotive is apparent in the wifi code. Watch my video interview and walkthrough with owner Mike Preston above.
As you enter the property the office is straight ahead with the pool and bar to your right. I enjoyed my pretty cocktails.
The property now has 40 units, a mixture of cabanas and apartments.

MY FAVORITE THINGS
- Short walk to the city center
- Secluded enough not to hear noise when you are trying to sleep
- In-room wifi
- Mini-fridge
- Front porch hammocks
- Walked to Blended Deli and got a delicious juice
KEEP IN MIND
- Itโs the jungle. Bring bug spray.
- Solo female travels should prepare to be honked and gawked at in the city center
TRAVEL TIPS
- Consider buying an umbrella at one of the grocery stores. It can shield from rain, sun and unwanted stares.
- The most popular restaurant seems to be Hannahโs at night, so go for lunch instead.
- It may make sense to buy a knife (pocket knife or kitchen) so you can cut the fresh fruit you buy at the market. Belize can be pricey and this is a good way to eat healthy food without blowing the budget.
LISTED PRICE
- On March 15, 2017, the average nightly price at Midas Belize is $50.
