Nabitunich is a destination on its own right, worth making the trip to Belize. It is a place with a heart and character. It felt like a rural heaven on Earth. Location: don't let the fact that it is outside of town dissuade you- getting here is very easy because the property is on the main highway to the border with Guatemala. From Belize city you can take any bus going to Flores, Benque or San Ignacio and stop at San Ignacio/Benque and take a cheap taxi from there or ask to be stopped at the road leading to Nabitunich, like we did. We also asked the bus to take us from the nearby Mopan Gas Station for our onward journey to Flores in Guatemala. The fact that it's outside towns means you have piece and quiet and lots of space to go for walks and lots of wildlife. San Ignacio town didn't look great, so we had no desire to even go there. There is a lot to do around Nabitunich- we rented horses with a guide to go to the nearby Mayan historic site along the river, which was a great experience and we highly recommend it. There are also different walking paths in the forrest and along the river to go for safe walks. Finally- the person running the place Dominic made our stay extra special- he is super friendly, welcoming, knowledgeable, with a great sense of humour and it was a pleasure spending time with him. Thank you for our stay, Dominic! Also thank you to all the warm and hardworking staff of Nabitunich who made sure the who place is clean, beautiful and who cooked the food.

I have travelled to over 80 countries. Stayed in thousands of low to mid range accomodations. I am not exaggerating when I say Nabitunich was the best. Dominic and his family were incredible hosts along with his amazing staff. Ive never felt so sad to leave an accomodation. A 10 minute walk to the river for great swimming and a little fishing. Walking amongst the cows, sheep, horses, was awesome. We even made great friends with the family pets. If you walk to the left at the river about 20 minutes you arrive in a protected area with howler monkeys. We saw 8 and even a mama & baby. On the property we saw fireflies, hummingbirds, and Toucans. The mayan ruins of Xunatunich is mere minutes away. We stayed 3 nights. We bought the package that included dinner for only another $9USD for 3. Food was excellent and aithentic. The common areas were amazing and Dominic was always engaging guests in conversation which led to everyone making quick friends. Rooms were clean. The farm has been in the family since before WW1. Thank you Dominic & family. You truly live in a magical destination. From the bottom of our heart our family thanks you & wishes you all the best.

Beautiful place and we loved our stay here. The owner, Dom, was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgable. You will love staying at Nabitunich if you are looking for something a little off the beaten path. This is bed and breakfast on a generationally owned family farm - dinner is also served in the evenings. We rented a car when we stayed here but other people staying at the same time did not and were able to get cabs (or hike!) into San Jose Succotz and the surrounding area.

The proprietor Dennis was awesome. The area has a wealth of sites, sights, swimming, culture and a natural beauty. He’s an interesting and worldly man. Knows of all to see in the area amd there are horses to ride right down the road. He undersells this booking as to not disappoint. I’d say you would be hard pressed to find a flaw in this property.

Great for a farm & sunset. Not all buildings had AC (a must). No TV & split building was easy to hear neighbor talking at normal volume. Dominic & staff were great. Common area was great. Food was good. Atmosphere was good, but descriptions like "farm tour available" were a stretch. Asked about it & seemed like it they weren't sure what we were talking about. If you want great sunset, "eco-friendly" & really interactive/knowledgeable host in a unique rural setting, probably the best place to stay in the country

Once you got to the site, Nabitunich is a perfect setting and place to spend time. The long road getting in is very rough. The communal area is great for meeting other guests. Dominic is the perfect host. Very attentive to your needs. The food on the site is good.

Dominic is a very conscientious host. He was very helpful with giving us local insight of where to visit. It is located in a beautiful, peaceful setting. We liked that breakfast and dinner were provided on-sight. This saved us a lot of time. The only dislike is that there was no A/C in our unit, but overall we really enjoyed our stay. Thank you Dominic!

Dominic and his wife (we never met her) have a lovely set up of cottages and places to stay on their working farm. We loved hearing the roosters in the morning and having the presence of their dogs. Breakfast was traditional and delicious. Although we had prior plans, if you needed dinner, they would prepare it for an extra cost - just let them know. Drinks of various kind were also available for purchase, or you could store your own in a common fridge. They have connections with other tour guides if you desire. I wish we could have taken more advantage of the trails on the property and other amenities, but we were only there for 2 nights. Better planning next time! One small caution for tall people, the queen bed cottage has short doors. My 6'2" husband banged his head twice when he forgot to duck. Otherwise the accommodations were lovely and comfortable.

Very cool setting. Nice and quite just like we like it. Walked down through the pastures and some jungle trails to the river. Breakfasts and dinners were awesome. Great deal to purchase dinners. Dominic is a great cook and excellent host. We really enjoyed our time and would recommend it to anyone looking for a base camp for exploring the area.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at Nabitunich! The owners, Dominic and Rebecca, were friendly and incredibly gracious hosts and made sure we were always taken care of. The location on a farm was lovely, and it was a short walk to the clear blue river. We loved seeing the adorable dog, cows, goats, and cats. The only downside of the location is that you are not within walking distance to San Ignacio for shopping or food, however, the property can provide all meals if you ask and there are taxis. The food prepared there was authentic, delicious, and very inexpensive - a great deal. We are not the most adventurous eaters, but loved everything we ate there. We also loved the quiet nature setting and it was a beautiful property. The room was clean and we always had hot water for showers. You should remember though, that you are on a farm in Belize, so we had some spider and gecko visitors in our room that we caught and released. Overall, fantastic experience and would definitely stay again! When getting picked up for our tours, other tourists asked us how we found this property becaue it was so lovely. Truly a gem!
