We want you to feel completely at home at Hummingbird Ridge. We’ll give you plenty of privacy to enjoy the cottages, mountain views and peaceful surroundings, but we’re always just a message away if you need us. Before your arrival, we’re happy to help with the practical details as well as the fun stuff—from rental vehicles and airport transportation to local recommendations and planning your Belize adventures. There’s so much to explore from the Hummingbird Highway, including caves, waterfalls, national parks, jungle adventures and day trips toward Hopkins and the Stann Creek coast. We’re happy to share our favorite local restaurants, shops and places to visit so you can experience some of the Belize we know and love. Once you arrive, your time is yours. Explore all day, stay home and enjoy the views, or do a little of both. We’ll be nearby if you need anything along the way.
Hummingbird Ridge sits high above The Hummingbird Gap along Belize’s Hummingbird Highway, (considered one of the most breathtaking and scenic drives in Central America) surrounded by the Maya Mountains, tropical jungle and incredible views. While the setting feels wonderfully peaceful and removed, there are great local restaurants along the highway as well as small local shops and roadside stands where you can pick up fresh produce and everyday essentials. For a larger grocery shop, we recommend stocking up in Belmopan before arrival. The location also makes a great base for exploring caves, waterfalls, swimming holes, national parks and the Stann Creek coast, including Hopkins.
Guests booking this listing have private access to both Hummingbird Ridge cottages and the surrounding guest areas, including hiking trails and a natural creek right on the property. Explore the trails, wander down to the creek or simply find a quiet spot to enjoy the mountain and jungle surroundings. The wooden Hummingbird Cottage and separate studio sit next to one another, making it easy to stay together while still having your own kitchen, bathroom and living space. A 4WD or AWD vehicle is required to access the property due to its elevated location above The Hummingbird Gap. Once you’re here, you can park the car, slow down and enjoy having nature, and trails right outside your door.
Hummingbird Ridge offers a cozy and intimate retreat, perfect for couples, solo travellers, or anyone seeking a peaceful/or adventurous getaway. The cottage features a comfortable bedroom with a plush queen-sized bed, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The open concept living room and kitchen are tastefully decorated, providing a warm and inviting space to dine and relax.
The kitchen is well-equipped with all the essentials, including a stove, refrigerator, microwave, and basic cooking utensils, allowing you to prepare simple meals at your convenience. The bathroom is modern and clean, featuring a walk-in shower, fresh towels, and complimentary toiletries.
Outside, you'll find a charming porch or patio area where you can soak in the surroundings, enjoying your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The cottage’s compact yet efficient design makes it an ideal choice for those looking for comfort and privacy in a serene setting.
A 4WD or AWD vehicle is required for Hummingbird Ridge, and we highly recommend having your own vehicle so you can explore the Hummingbird Highway and surrounding areas at your own pace.
