DIRECTIONS TO Midas Resort

We will be glad to provide a shuttle from Belize City or the Airport on your arrival day. But if you prefer your own transportation, directions are below.


From Belize International Airport:

Go out of the airport approximately 2 miles until you come to a T with the Northern Highway.
Take a left. Continue north for a few miles until you get to a small road going left by a large communications tower on the left. At that corner, there is usually a police checkpoint (since you are going to turn left, you probably won’t have to stop to be checked). Also on that same corner is a nice housing area.
Take a left at that intersection and continue for about 8-10 miles. You will cross the Belize River, pass the little town of Burrel Boom, and pass the prison. Then will find some slow down big bumps in the road, advising you that you are approaching the town of Hattieville and an intersection.
At the round-about, stop if anyone is already in the circle, then enter with care and take the first right possible.
You are now on the Western Highway that takes you all the way to San Ignacio. Continue on approximately 55 miles to San Ignacio-Santa Elena. Beware of one or two bumps in almost every town along the highway. In San Ignacio you come to one bump, then a curve, then another bump by a Cp gas station on the right.
Continue straight until the next speed bump you will see a yellow sign “to San Ignacio and Beyond” take a right and at this junction you will then come across a T junction take a left then your first right.
After crossing the wooden Bridge the junction after the bridge turn right and follow the paved road you will pass a park on the left hand side and Hodes restaurant on the right. Keep going straight until you are on the dirt road and you will see Midas on the right hand side ignore the paved road that curves it is the same road but you want to be on the dirt road.


From Belize City:

Ask directions to the Western Highway. As you get to the round-a-bout, make sure to yield for traffic already in the circle – they have the right of way.
Take the road past the cemetery and continue straight. You are now on the Western Highway. Continue about 5 miles to a police checkpoint. Slow and stop. Give your driver’s license to the police if they request it. Continue on to Hattieville, about 10 more miles.
At the round-about, stop if anyone is already in the circle, then enter with care, going around the circle almost ¾ of the way and continuing west. You are in Hattieville.  
Continue on the Western Highway that takes you all the way to San Ignacio. Continue on approximately 55 miles to San Ignacio-Santa Elena. Beware of one or two bumps in almost every town along the highway. In San Ignacio you come to one bump, then a curve, then another bump by a Cp gas station on the right.
Take your next right which is just after the speed bump you will see a yellow sign to San Ignacio and beyond and the next junction take a left and then the first right.
This will bring you to the low lying wooden bridge which you need to cross at the junction after the bridge turn right and follow the paved road you will pass a park on the left hand side and Hodes restaurant on the right. Keep going straight until you are on the dirt road and you will see Midas on the right hand side ignore the paved road that curves it is the same road but you want to be on the dirt road.
