We were fortunate to be able to stay at the Lewis House for 2 weeks. The house and Dangriga Town is as delightful as the ad suggests. The house is spacious, very clean, and with the convienence of the full kitchen and laundry it is a very comfortable dwelling. It was almost like staying at home! And yes, the veranda is marvelous. We spent many of our evenings sitting on that veranda, with a cool drink, conversing with our new friends, watching the sun set and Dangriga begin begin its "night life".
We have been to Belize before, but I have found the citizens of Dangriga to be the most friendly and helpful of anywhere in the country. We were greeted with people saying "Welcome to my beautiful country" as we walked the streets. Mrs. Rose Diego, the local owner of the Lewis House is an exquisite hostess. She explained the workings of the house lovingly and in great detail. She provided needed resourses and was able to inform us of the perfect guide (Julio Saqui) for our excursions into the Cockscomb Basin wildlife Sanctuary (jaguar reserve)and to the nearby Mayan ruins. Rose was on "24 hour call" to help us with all of our questions.
If you are traveling to southern Belize, don't miss this wonderful town and the fantastic people at the Lewis House. It was a delightful experience for us. Jan |
