Houses in Belize

This stay was even more beautiful than the photos! The property was exactly as advertised, and very, very clean, with every amenity you would need for a comfortable stay. Leda and Laura were our hosts, and were extremely helpful in recommending tours and transportation. It was a little far from town (a 25-ish minute walk down a main road), but taxis are easy to flag down and affordable. Would highly recommend this property!!

The location on the Caribbean is great - the beach is pretty much private for the few casas right there! And when the sea was too active, we just got in the small pool and watched it. Great for stargazing, watching the birds, just relaxing in general. Easy access to restaurants and grocery stores. Driving distance to many activities/preserves if you want to have a day of exploration. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. We had to leave a day earlier than planned because of our flight schedule but it was hard to leave because it was so beautiful and peaceful.

The house is wonderful. It has that “wow” factor when you walk in with high beamed ceilings and wall to wall windows highlighting the pool and sea view as your back yard. The house was REALLY clean, and had all we needed for the week - from the stocked kitchen with coffee and filtered water jugs to get us started, dishwasher detergent, a washer and dryer with laundry soap available, and no shortage of towels - much appreciated. The wrap around, covered patio gives both bedrooms access to the back yard. It was so nice having a private beach with plenty of coconut trees for shade. Herbert was great. He provided many suggestions ahead of time as well as in the book at the house. I appreciated the attention to safety as well, something you don’t always see in a rental. The area itself is pretty quiet and Placencia is only a short drive, where you’ll find shops and restaurants. We really enjoyed the week and would highly recommend this place!

This location was great and actually looks even better in person. Mariah was very communicative and provided plenty of information so we were well prepared for our stay. All of the staff were very helpful and courteous . I would definitely stay here again.

Our stay at Casa Tropical Howler Hill was a delight! From the spectacular view, to sightings of tropical birds with our binoculars, to the gracious and private accommodations, we couldn't have been more pleased. The biggest highlight was interacting with Millie ~ she cooked multiple *delicious* Belizean meals for our group and offered invaluable advice. She helped make our stay truly lovely. She's a gem! We rented an SUV with all-wheel drive in the dry season, which made it possible to traverse the 45-minute+ gravel road to and from the house, as well as visit the Xunantunich Mayan ruins, the Rio Frio Cave and Rio On Pools, and the ATM Cave. We're adding to the chorus of positive reviews here: this is a special place.

Captain Robby, Thomas and Mrs. Mina offered 5 star hospitality. What a beautiful family! We fell in love with the property. It is truly a piece of heaven on earth. The whole family checked-in on us and always made sure we had everything we needed. Captain Robby made us the most delicious smoked coconut and he cracked open a fresh coconut for us. We felt so spoiled! We got to visit with Coco, Captain Robbys little dog. He is such an AMAZING dog and is so well behaved. There is a great restaurant 1 min walk to the right with delicious driks and food. Pool is free to dip in. Secret beach which you can not miss is fabulous and only 17 minutes away. We personally loved being 30 min from town and it felt like we had a piece of paradise to ourseves. We spent a week here and I wish we were still there. Don't hesitate to book this place! We went with all the recommendations from Captain Robby and Thomas and everything was perfect! Get the golf cart, stay here and go have a blast. Thank you ❤️

WOAH. This place is a GEM. The kind you want to keep to yourself, it’s just that great. My husband and I were SO impressed by the grounds and property, the location was idyllic. Sarah and her husband were just delightful. We had the most wonderful experience. The very helpful and personal, quick check in process was wonderful. Had everything we needed and then some. Sarah thought of everything, even the things we weren’t prepared for like bugs and bites. We were perfectly cooled, the water was so hot, the bed was comfy and plenty big, we slept so peaceful. The pool was GREAT. Truly, can’t ask for more. So grateful we found this space and will absolutely be visiting again and staying here. Superb in every way. Pictures do not do it justice at all.

Great and relaxing stay at Eden Farm. Charming host! Cute dogs! It was so quiet and peaceful at Eden Farm itself that we found our tentative plans for nearby adventures and activities diminished and flopping on the porch listening to the birdsongs and gazing across the meadow seemed like the thing to do. At the same time, a wonderful birdwatching trail, Mayan cooking class and lunches were right down the road, as well as being just minutes from San Antonio with restaurants and a great women’s cooperative (check out the National Geograhic article on them, and Google the Upe Nai Mayan immersion cultural center right down the road). We drove, so all sorts of things close by, if inclined. But as noted, we found ourselves inclined to rest and recharge at Eden Farm itself. The term “vegging out” comes to mind, which is funny as our new favorite Britishism from our newfound friendship with Robin (the host) is now “I think we will have a bit of veg!” Unforgettable experience!

Overall, this place was very cool! For us it was just a quick stop the night before our flight, but you could definitely stay there and enjoy the pool and property for a few days. It's 5 stars for staying in a cute little bungalow (not 5 stars like a resort. I'm not saying this as a negative just clarifying as I feel there is a difference). Bed was super comfy!! Good restaurants are about a 30 minute drive. The property was wonderful and gated and felt safe, but the overall area where it's located did not seem awesome. You probably aren't walking anywhere from here, but as long as you don't mind the drive then it's fine. The only semi negative thing I noticed upon arrival (I suppose the pictures made it clear and I just didn't take note), was that there is no where to all sit and hang out inside. The kitchen table has 2 chairs. If you have 4 people and wanted to all eat there, 2 would be standing, or sitting on a bed. Michelle was fantastic as far as communication and suggestions!!

We loved our stay at this Vacasa Rental. It was like having our own private beach. The locals were very friendly and we got to know the staff at The Hula Bar on the pier, which had just recently opened. Waking up to the rustling sea and palm trees was magical. We kayaked for free and I even saw a stingray in the water. I could really get used to living like that. Love love loved our stay!

Fun location. Felt safe and relaxing

We stayed with jay and Myrtle last year and this year was a home coming.. we have made life long friends in them and their wonderful community.

Words really can’t express how beautiful Tamzin’s place was! The pictures really did show just how amazing the space is. There is nothing else we could have wanted this place to be stocked with. Tamzin went above any beyond making sure we felt welcomed upon arrival. Don’t hesitate booking this place.

Stop searching for a place and book here!! We absolutely LOVED our stay at Salty Bliss! The house is everything and more. We spent most of our vacation enjoying the beautiful pool looking at the lagoon! Bonnie and Dora are the nicest and so helpful. We booked a golf cart (highly recommend doing to explore the island!) and a snorkeling tour (that picked us up right from the lagoon in the back of the house!) with Bonnie’s advice and can’t recommend using the same companies enough. The house is SO stocked with everything you could ever need - towels, coolers, bags, even frozen gel packs ready to put into the coolers. When we return to Placencia I wouldn’t consider staying anywhere else! Thank you so much Bonnie for making our first visit unforgettable! 💜

This is the only place to consider if you’re staying on the island. It was hands down the nicest we saw. They provided bikes (best way to get around) and we used them multiple times a day! Perfect location, very private and peaceful, yet only a quick walk/bike to restaurants, beaches, grocery stores, bars…Zen was our local contact and she picked us up from the local airport and drove us to the location in her golf cart - only vehicles allowed on the island aside from trash removal (so nice!). We utilized the washer/dryer multiple times and it helped us pack light. Sunset from the pool / your private dock every night was incredible. Just book this place - you won’t regret it!

Vincent's place was amazing! Its proximity to the split was very convenient. The private beach in the back was beautiful and secluded. I read on the rooftop every morning. Vincent was extremely responsive, and we absolutely enjoyed our stay in Caye Caulker!
