I'm flying in on Friday and the place where I was going to stay is full. I ned somewhere on the mainland in the west, Cayo District?, that is nice, has AC and is close to mountains, caves, etc. Anyone have a suggestion? Blancaneaux is full and Windy Hill has no transport...Marty, ?.......

What about San Ignacio Hotel or Cahal Pech Resort?

Pooks Hill. Lovely spot just outside Teakettle on Roaring Creek with it's own Mayan ruin on site - recently subject to an archeological dig revealing more. I don't think there's ac though and it was no. 3 priority on your list; but if you can get past that it's stunning and close to Tapir Mountain Reserve, ATM, Caves Branch, Zoo, Gaunacaste etc.

dont do the san ignacio hotel unless it got a lot nicer the last few years. i stayed at duPlooy's in '02 and really liked it. good luck, i love cayo!!!!!!

Mopan River Resort in Benque de Viejo

Jaguar paw lodge

Mopan River Resort is closed July through October each year.

Hidden Valley, Chaa Creek, Five Sisters .........

Oh, man! I LOVED Five Sisters but it's WAY out there! The waterfalls make it totally worth the trip.

Jaguar Paw is also excellent, in my opinion.

Five sisters is more or less next door to Blancaneaux, so if Grace was interested in Blancaneaux, she will find the location just as lovely - and yes, it is way out there.
