Everything was amazing. Accurate advertising and this home was even more beautiful than we expected. Loved the little touches like having beach towels and a well equipped kitchen. The book of information was extremely helpful for amazing tours. Thank you for being a great part of our Belize vacation!

we loved our stay at the mariposa mist! the property has a wonderful view of the lagoon, which we often enjoyed from the screened-in porch. we found that the home is set up well, including beach towels, extra Nalgenes, and even a travel cooler. we also appreciated how quiet and remote the area is, but it is still close enough to placencia village to explore easily. also casi is a very communicative host! i would stay at this property again.
