San Ignacio Resort Hotel has opened its newest open air space, a terraced garden amphitheater surrounded by rainforest.
Called the courtyard, the space sits just below the hillside on the resort’s Buena Vista Street property. Cream stone steps lead down to a wide, striped green lawn, while towering trees and trailing vines wrap around three sides, forming a living wall of jungle.

It feels a world away, yet it’s only a short walk from downtown San Ignacio.
Made for lingering
The courtyard is designed for slowing down. Soft turf runs between the stone tiers, white market umbrellas shade bistro tables, and cushions in cream and burnt orange turn the steps into relaxed lounge seating. Guests can start the day with coffee, enjoy an afternoon cocktail or settle in with a book to the sound of birdsong.

After sunset, lamp posts light up the lawn and the courtyard becomes an intimate outdoor venue. The tiered steps double as a natural stage and seating area, ideal for live music, film nights, cultural performances and evenings under the Cayo sky.
A new chapter for an award winning resort
The courtyard is the latest addition to a resort named Belize’s Leading Hotel at the World Travel Awards for five consecutive years, a milestone reached in its 50th anniversary year.
