Property Description

Discover Belize with us! Yellow Belly Backpackers sits overlooking the rolling hills of the Mayan Mountains, only a short distance from the hustle & bustle of downtown San Ignacio. We offer free bicycle rentals for quick access into downtown and are conveniently located steps from the main bus line, making arriving, departing, and visiting the surrounding area incredibly easy.

Youll be at home when you stay with us and it starts with our staff making you feel welcome from the time you step in the door. We are here to answer your questions, help book your tours, and guide you during your stay. So, start your morning with free breakfast of eggs, beans, assorted fruits, coffee, tea, juice, and more!) before heading out on the days adventure!

Whether youre discovering ancient Mayan ruins, exploring caves and waterfalls in Mountain Pine Ridge, or simply trying the local cuisine at the market (get the stuffed fry jack!), there is so much to discover around Belize!

When its time for dinner, youll find several locally owed restaurants & bars nearby, or, if youd rather cook in our communal kitchen, there are grocery stores just a minutes walk from our hostel. As the sun sets, share a Belikin beer with fellow travelers from around the world on our outside patio or indoor lounge area.

Really great stay! Beds are huge. Staff is wonderful and breakfast has a lot of options. Some of the bathrooms are a toilet +shower and very very spacious! Having one more stand alone toilet would have been great during peek times. If you are staying here remember to the Pine Ridge tour offered exclusively by the hostel - we had so much fun!

I’ve stayed in over 50 hostels; I’m usually not too picky. Maybe I’m just getting too old for them. The location was not ideal. They have a resident cat and the room smelled like cat urine and was VERY strong. The bathrooms were always out of toilet paper in after 1900, so had to use paper towels. The beds were ok. There was a lock on the door to the room but no keys so you couldn’t lock the door because you might lock out a roommate. The front desk staff were VERY NICE AND FRIENDLY.
