Mountain Equestrian Trails

San Ignacio, Belize.

Deep in the rain forest setting overlooking a private valley with incredible views of the Maya Mountains in Cayo, at the heart of the Slate Creek Preserve, you'll find an intimate atmosphere, and qualified staff providing outstanding service and more.

Bed and Breakfast Description

Mountain Equestrian Trails (MET) is a small jungle lodge built within a moist tropical broad leaf forest at the base of the immense and largely pristine Mountain Pine Ridge escarpment. It offers an appealing combination of thatched roof cottages set carefully under the rain forest canopy along the edges of a mountain valley.

The Cabanas are constructed of stucco and hardwoods, with native-style thatched roofs. Each room is decorated with Maya woven tapestries, has a private bath with hot water, and a deck with table and chairs for every room. There is no electricity in the rooms; kerosene lamps provide lighting and exotic ambiance. Mosquito nets, though rarely needed, are provided, so you can leave your windows open and enjoy the cool evening breezes.

The Cantina is the center of action, being a general meeting area, bar, and restaurant. We serve delicious home-style cooking with local entrees, fish, barbeque, pizza, tacos, rice and beans, homemade tortillas, breads, cakes and lots of fresh fruits and vegetables, many grown right in the area. We can accommodate most dietary restrictions if notified prior to arrival.

At Mountain Equestrian Trails we love children. There are several children around to play with, and we offer activities children love, such as horseback riding, swimming, hiking, and exploring, or simply enjoying a game of soccer or baseball. Children under 6 are free, and 6-16 are half price for meals. Babysitting available with advance notice.
