Welcome to Los Techitos, a place where creativity, culture, and village life come together to create an unforgettable stay. Tucked away in the peaceful community of Succotz and only 5 minutes from the legendary Xunantunich Maya archeological site, this extraordinary property is more than just a home — it is a living story.
A Private World of Little Roofs- Los Techitos was built slowly, lovingly, and intentionally over the years. Its name — “The Little Roofs” — comes from the collection of charming standalone cabins scattered across the property. Each structure is open, airy, and full of character.
You will have the entire property to yourself.
No shared spaces, no other guests — just your group surrounded by nature, peace, and your own private compound.
Spaces Created With Heart - The main unit features a king-sized bed, a queen-sized bed just behind, and two VERY comfortable king-size futons on the lower level, designed for comfort and space.
Please specify the structure of the group, kids age and beds needed so we can preapre the space accordingly.
Open-Air Comfort- There is no AC, but the open design of the structures invites the natural breeze to flow through. Combined with plenty of fans, nights feel fresh, peaceful, and comfortable.
‘Buena Suerte’ (Good Luck) is our residential cat, she is friendly, loving and fed by our staff.
At Los Techitos, food is part of the experience.
The large, open kitchen is fully equipped and includes a taco table, perfect for fun evenings of cooking together, sharing stories, and laughing over handmade tortillas.
Driving to the property- The road to the property is not paved, but it is easily managed with any type of vehicle. As you drive in, you pass through the beauty of Succotz — children playing outside, neighbors greeting each other, and the calm rhythm of village life.
Life in Succotz- Los Techitos is in a real Belizean village, not in an isolated resort bubble — and that is part of its charm. You may hear neighbors chatting, children playing, dogs announcing every important village development, and roosters who firmly believe sunrise should be a community event. On especially lucky mornings or evenings, you may also hear the howler monkeys calling in the distance — the more exotic side of the local soundtrack. Succotz sits between San Ignacio and Benque, giving you an authentic village setting while still being within easy reach of attractions, markets, restaurants, and tours.
Our team — Don Amelio, Shelly, and Manuel — are our neighbors and friends from the community and are part of what makes staying here special. They are nearby if you need anything and are always happy to help you experience local Belizean life.

A Home Built From Stories- What makes Los Techitos truly unforgettable is its soul.
The property is decorated with original Belizean signage collected over the years, each piece carrying a story. The design, the materials, the layout — everything reflects a life lived in connection with Belize, its people, and its culture.
This is not just a place to sleep.
It’s a place to breathe, connect, slow down, and feel the magic of real village living.
Please be kind to buena suerte the cat
