🌿 A Peaceful Monday in Cayo — November 10, 2025
Good morning from The Treehouse Cayo in beautiful Bullet Tree Falls! Start your week slow and easy with river breezes, lush trails, and a few of our favorite local spots around San Ignacio.
☀️ Morning — River Calm & Coffee Views
Ease into the day with coffee on your deck, listening to the sounds of the Mopan River. You can take a short stroll to the riverside for bird-watching or simply dip your toes in the water. It’s a serene way to start a Belizean Monday.
🏛 Late Morning — Ancient Stones & Green Hills
Head about 20 minutes into Cahal Pech Archaeological Reserve in San Ignacio for sweeping valley views and ancient Maya ruins shaded by tall trees. Bring a hat and water bottle — it’s a peaceful, compact site ideal for a late-morning visit.
🥗 Lunch — Rainforest Dining
- Guava Limb Restaurant & Café — one of San Ignacio’s top lunch spots with a breezy garden veranda, wood-fired pizza, and tropical salads. Google Map
- Cenaida’s Belizean Food — a true local favorite serving rice & beans, stewed chicken, and plantains. Google Map
🌿 Afternoon — Botanical Beauty or River Float
Spend your afternoon at the stunning Belize Botanic Gardens, just a 25-minute drive away. Wander through orchid houses, palm trails, and riverbank gardens — open daily 7 am – 4 pm. Alternatively, stay local with a gentle tubing float along the Mopan River. Local guides in Bullet Tree Falls can set you up for a relaxing drift downstream.
🌙 Evening — Sunset & Dinner in Town
As the sun sets, head back toward San Ignacio for a laid-back dinner. Ko-Ox Han Nah (“Let’s Go Eat”) offers big plates of Belizean comfort food, while Guava Limb keeps a cozy atmosphere on its candle-lit veranda.
Return to The Treehouse for a dip in the pool, a nightcap on the deck, and the soothing rhythm of jungle sounds under the stars — the perfect end to your Monday in paradise.
