If you’re planning a trip to Belize, chances are the ATM Cave is already on your radar. And if it’s not, it should be. The Actun Tunichil Muknal Cave is one of the most talked-about tours in the country — part jungle trek, part underground river swim, and part sacred Maya history lesson. But here’s the thing no one really prepares you for: as incredible as the cave is, it’s also intense. After hours of hiking, swimming, climbing, and squeezing through rock formations, your body will be begging for rest.
That’s where Villa Massis comes in.
We’re not a big resort or a noisy hotel in town. We’re a small, private jungle retreat located just outside of San Ignacio. The kind of place where you can kick off your shoes, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and listen to birdsong while swaying in a hammock. If you’re doing the ATM Cave, trust us — this is the kind of place you’ll want to come back to.
The Adventure: What to Expect at the ATM Cave
The ATM Cave isn’t your average cave tour. It’s raw, real, and unforgettable. You’ll hike through lush rainforest, cross shallow rivers, and swim into the cave’s entrance. Inside, the journey continues — over limestone boulders and into massive chambers filled with Maya pottery, sacrificial altars, and skeletal remains that have been untouched for over a thousand years.
It’s an experience that’s both physically demanding and emotionally powerful. This isn’t just a photo-op. It’s a window into the beliefs, rituals, and mysteries of the ancient Maya.
And when it’s over, you’ll be grateful to come home to somewhere quiet.
Why Villa Massis Is the Perfect Place to Stay
At Villa Massis, we believe that adventure and relaxation go hand-in-hand. After an active day in the caves, you deserve more than just a place to sleep. You deserve comfort. Privacy. Good food. A hot shower. Maybe a cold drink by the pool or a slow swing in a hammock while the sun dips behind the hills.
Our villas are designed to blend natural materials with modern comforts — handcrafted wooden furnishings, cool tile floors, high ceilings, and wide open windows that bring the jungle indoors (without sacrificing AC, of course). It’s quiet. It’s calm. It’s the kind of place where your body and mind can reset.
We’ll Handle the Tour Details for You

We partner with trusted, licensed tour guides who know the cave inside and out. We’ll make sure you’re picked up right here at the villa, properly geared up, and ready to go. And when you return, we’ll be here waiting — with a peaceful villa, a soft bed, and the kind of stillness you can only find in the jungle.
