The Aguada - Santa Elena, Belize

Just five minutes from San Ignacio, tucked away in a tranquil oasis in San Ignacio’s twin town, Santa Elena, the Aguada Restaurant sits on an Ancient Mayan watering hole.
The name ‘Aguada’ means watering hole and our property possesses all of the peace and serenity that the ancient Maya culture cultivated centuries ago.
Surrounded by flowering plants, blooming trees and orchids, and inhabited by over 63 species of tropical birds, when you dine by the watering hole, you become a part of the lush landscape that makes the Aguada Restaurant a culinary experience like no other.
Our chefs use fresh produce and local ingredients to prepare quintessential Belizean fare, in addition to selections of international and vegetarian dishes.
