About the host
Hosted by Corrina Taylor
I’m Corrina, founder of Covet Dwellings and The Belize Villas, based in beautiful Belize. I love welcoming guests to Villa Attalea, where modern comfort meets the serenity of the jungle. Hosting is my passion — I enjoy helping travelers experience Belize’s culture, wildlife, waterfalls, and warm community. With our dedicated A-Team, we provide personalized attention, local insight, and genuine Belizean hospitality to make every stay effortless, memorable, and inspiring.
Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood for its breathtaking balance of nature and tranquility. Perched above the Macal River just outside San Ignacio, it offers lush jungle views, colorful birds, and peaceful sounds of nature — yet it’s only minutes from town. I love how mornings start with toucans in the trees and evenings end with golden sunsets over the hills. This area captures the true spirit of Belize — a place where you can explore ancient Maya sites by day and relax in quiet luxury by night.
What makes this property unique
What makes Villa Attalea truly unique is how seamlessly it blends luxury and nature. Set high above the Macal River, it offers breathtaking jungle views, open-air living spaces, and a private infinity pool surrounded by palms. Every detail—from the handcrafted décor to the panoramic terrace—reflects the beauty of Belize’s rainforest. Guests love the peaceful privacy, the connection to wildlife, and the feeling of staying in a designer home that still feels completely in tune with nature.
