Balam Room
Balam Rooms are nestled in a hacienda style home on the grounds of Ka’ana Boutique Resort. These five graciously appointed luxury accommodations all offer private entrances with lovely outdoor sitting areas overlooking the pool, lush tropical gardens and tall trees. These intimate rooms feature luxurious amenities and queen beds.
Balam is Mayan for Jaguar. Balams are said to travel in groups of five and come at night to villages. The Mayans believed the jaguar spirit protected them and their settlement. It is said that four jaguars divide and go to each corner of the village, and the fifth although the smallest is the most powerful and settles in the center of the village to coordinate the team’s response if needed. Any evil spirit who enters the village in the evening is dealt with immediately while the villagers sleep peacefully and protected.
The Mayan spirit of the jaguar will protect you and ensure your restful and comfortable evening. You will feel revitalized and ready to explore the Mayan ruins located just a short distance away from the resort. Who knows, you might get a chance to see one of the mystical jaguars while in Belize.
