Hummingbird Ridge sits high above The Hummingbird Gap along Belize’s Hummingbird Highway, (considered one of the most breathtaking and scenic drives in Central America) surrounded by the Maya Mountains, tropical jungle and incredible views. While the setting feels wonderfully peaceful and removed, there are great local restaurants along the highway as well as small local shops and roadside stands where you can pick up fresh produce and everyday essentials.
