Today, San Ignacio Resort Hotel honors the memory of Mr. Escandar Bedran Sr. with this miniature sculpture of the Xunantunich ferry.  Placed immediately at our front desk beneath a painting of the mural of the Xunantunich Archaeological site for all our guests to enjoy.

To honor  the founder of the hotel Mr. Escandar Bedran Sr., a series of events and initiatives were launched. One of these includes the Escandar Bedran Family Hotel Scholarship Program. In celebration of our storied past and brilliant future, we are proud to award the first scholarship to Mr. Edmund Junior Bennett.
