In August, we (a couple from Amsterdam and 17 year old son) spent half a week at Hickatee. And it was too short. Our expectations were very high, due to the enthousiastic reviews we read, but Hickatee didn't disappoint us. The cottages in the jungle garden are very nice. Beautiful floors! Breakfast and dinner on the veranda are wonderful. Kate... more

This wonderful cottage is set back in the "bush" in a small town in the southern side of Belize. The staff of husband and wife are entertaing and informative. But the service and the peace of the cottages made our stay perfect. Fresh tea and bread in the mornings and hikes organized by the hosts were just what we needed.... more

Hickatee cottages was the perfect jungle paradise! Ian and Kate treat there guest as old friends, after a week you feel like family. The cottages themselves are confortable and charming. Anyone looking to find the REAL Belize and immerce themselves in the culture, this is THE place to stay. I will be returning to Belize and would not even think... more

Hickatee Cottages was, for us, the perfect mix of jungle, wildlife and birds with the familiar comforts that make us feel at home. After four previous trips to Belize, we decided to venture further south, to the Toledo District. We chose Hickatee Cottages primarily because of the location and guest reviews. Their website and all the stellar reviews, written and... more

My friend and I stayed at Hickatee Cottages our first three nights in Belize and it was a great start to our two weeks in Belize. The hosts went above and beyond the call of duty to make our stay comfortable and fun! They helped us with planning day trips, arranging transportation, and the meals were fabulous. The cottages are... more

We like to... more

Well, I want to make this short sweet, and informative: I was apprehensive at first ( going to Hickatee) because there were no (to my memory) bad reviews) of Hickatee so I assumed that it was probaby the friends and family of Kate and Ian writing the wonderful reviews. Yes, I said it, you probably thought of it as well.... more

This was our first trip to Belize and we loved it. Kate and Ian were great hosts and were very helpful in everything from the booking of the plane from Belize City to Punta Gorda to trips we did everyday while there. Kate is an excellent cook! Ian has such dry sense of humor and I enjoyed the interaction between... more

My daughter & I stayed at Hickatee Cottages for 4 nights. The cottages are in a beautiful natural setting, yet within an easy cycle ride or walk of PG. The tropical garden is natural & serene, and flows imperceptibly into the surrounding jungle. The cottages provide all the comforts any sane traveller would need, and, in addition your own verandah,... more
