“Friendly staff”

Villa Boscardi

4 of 5 stars
Calgary
Apr 27, 2008

We stayed at Villa Boscardi our first night in Belize. Our family of four had a large comfortable and clean room with 2 queen beds. Francoise was a very friendly host and we enjoyed hearing her many stories and the places she has lived around the world. Villa Boscardi has a nice courtyard with some beautiful flowers. We spent our evening outside in the courtyard playing with Francoise's two dogs and making good use of her chess board! Breakfast in the morning was delicious and filling. We would certainly recommend the Villa Boscardi for when you need to stay near the airport or in Belize City.

“Very Comfortable!!”

Villa Boscardi

This B&B was very comfortable. Francoise and her staff of one do their very best at making you comfortable and well fed for breakfast. Our family of four stayed in the larger room with two queen beds. Air conditioned and containing it's own bathroom, very nice for a B&B, by the way. We would highly recommend it for the price!

“A nice place”

Villa Boscardi

4 of 5 stars
Tacoma, Washington
Feb 4, 2007

Villa Boscardi is a nice B&B in a neighborhood setting. We stayed in a detached cottage/room, which was very clean and comfortable. Breakfast in the morning was extremely tasty. Francoise is an excellent and friendly host and she took us to the airport for US $20.

We only stayed in Belize City for one night since we were flying out the next day. While Villa Boscardi was nice and well-cared-for, the surrounding neighborhood was quite rough. My husband and I decided to get our dinner to go rather than eat at the restaurant and have to walk back in the dark. The streets aren't that well lit. We had dinner at the Italian place close-by and do not recommend it. After all of the fabulous food we had had around Belize over the previous two weeks, this restaurant disappointing. I would recommend having Francoise call a cab to take you to some of the better known restaurants in Belize City.

“Clean and Safe”

Villa Boscardi

4 of 5 stars
Pittsburgh
Jul 18, 2006

Stayed for 2 nights. The mother who I understand generally runs the place was out of the country during our stay so our interaction was with the oldest daughter and her husband both friendly and willing to help especially the husband a Belizian. The room was comparable to a hotel room with two doulble beds, nothing fancy but nice and very clean it did have a cable TV which made my boys happy as they could watch the All Star Game on ESPN . The a/c worked great the shower was hot with adequate pressure. Breakfeast in the mornings were fixed by a very nice local, one day pancakes, orange juice,coffee and fruit. Another day eggs, bacon, orange juice fruit and coffee. We found the neighborhood safe and had no problem walking to 2 nearby restaurants at night, one Italian the other Chinese.The only draw back I saw may be a table that only sat 4 for breakfeast. But as we were the only people staying it wasn't a problem for us. Our rate was US $78.50 per night plus taxes for 3 people.

“2 Night Stay”

Villa Boscardi

May 31, 2006

We had a small room for 4 persons and would have preferred the larger, unoccupied room for the same price, but our request for this room was denied. Breakfast Sunday was great but breakfast Monday was very loud and crowded. We were the last to be seated at the very small and only table. There was not enough food or orange juice for the four of us and our requests for orange juice went unheeded. Our bathroom light was not working and was not fixed until we were checking out. One minute after exiting our room to leave and await our taxi in the front yard, our daughter was denied access to the bathroom in our room. This place is small and the owners turn off your a/c when you leave the room. I would recommend it only as a one night stop from the airport when arriving late. There are no places to eat nearby and taxi service to town can be costly. I would not stay here again. The neighborhood did not make me feel safe and as I walked 1/2 block to see the Cuban Embassy I was confronted with a large barking dog who snapped at me several times.
