SoPilar, Belize

Facilities

We will be opening March 2012.

We are still working on this site. There will be changes as time goes on.

	Champa Champa signifies a jungle hut. This one is a bit bigger than a hut. This is the main building, set up for hammock sleeping. There are Mayan woven mats to act as room dividers. The champa can be used as a classroom, a dining room, sleeping space, or whatever is required. The lawn of the champa is our tenting area.
	Showers Here is the path to the showers. You can see the building at the left and the champa behind. There are two shower stalls. The water isn't heated, but it's wet. It is also very soft - our source is rain-water catchment.
	Toilets Here is that other facility that nobody talks about but everyone needs. There are two stalls here too. They haven't got to the his and hers point yet. They are vented and they work OK. Flushing is still a place in Queens (New York City Joke).
	Grounds This is a champita - a little champa. They are thatched seats so you can sit and just look, or just listen to the wind rustle the fronds. We have two now, one over looking the main building and grounds and another on the ridge looking west. There are 45 acres at SoPilar, threaded and surrounded with trails, but mostly wild jungle. We also grow a lot of our own food at SoPilar. Pineapples are not always in season though.
