Monthly Rentals in Maya Centre

We stayed for a month in Hopkins, Christina's studio was perfect. As pictured, spacious, as described, totally clean and everything worked. The pool was good although we preferred going to the beach about 100m away. The apartment is at the south end of town where the larger and newer resorts are and there are plenty of good restaurants nearby. The older village was about 1,5 km north, we walked the road most days into town and returned walking the beach. Plenty of small, locally owned/operated restaurants and beach bar and grills and a number of good sized grocery stores. We rented a car for a month and we able to enjoy a variety of day trips such as Placencia, Punta Gorda, Dangriga and more. There are also a number of golf cart rentals in Hopkins that you might want to use or bicycles available at the Caribbean Village. Overall, a great apartment, beautiful town and people, please don't rent this apartment because you might make it difficult for me to rent next year lol.

Alan's Seahouse is across the street from his Hotel, on the lagoon side. The room has plenty of space. a nice little kitchen area (with working stove), ceiling fan and AC, and a large TV with time of channels and apps. Comfortable for a weeks stay, or longer - the building has 4 units, and some have been rented for months at a time. Very quiet inside. you can't hear your neighbors at all. The available kayaks and bicycles (free) is a really nice plus! Alan's is around most days. Great guy to chat with, and very agreeable to requests for help.

Had a fantastic 5-night stay at the Toucan Guest House. Comfortable, well-appointed house in an ideal location. It is close to both Cockscomb and Bocawina—two of our favorite jungle reserves—so we had no problem getting to both during prime early morning birding hours. It was even close to Hopkins for restaurants, groceries, and the beach. Hosts were fantastic. We highly recommend.

Phil's place is a great location for exploring Belize without the tourists! Centrally located in the southern part of the country, it was within an hour of great little villages like Placencia, Dangriga and Hopkins, as well as the mountains and cayes for hiking, zip lining, snorkeling, caving...you name it. It's off the beaten path, nestled in a reserve so be prepared for driving on dirt roads to get there, but hey, it's Belize, so that's common and you'll get used to it. We drove from Belize City so didn't take up Phil's offer to rent his personal Jeep, but you'll definitely need an SUV (that's all rental companies provide anyway). It's a good place to stay if you are allergic to tourists and want a nice quiet, peaceful home with all the amenities....but close enough to drive in for dinner or drinks with expats or tourists if you get lonely. Phil's house was super clean, safe, beautiful, comfortable and well provisioned. We stayed with our two teenage boys who loved the pool and the beach club with access to the ocean, paddle boards and kayaks. We had it to ourselves most days! There is no cable TV (which we loved) but Phil's got the most amazing collection of movies (1,000+) so you won't be bored (movie night was every night!). Since it's a bit remote, you likely won't be going out to eat every day, so stop by a grocery store in any of the towns on the way in or the surprisingly well-stocked store on the community, including a case of Belikin beer in a returnable crate (THE beer of Belize).
