Vacation rentals with beach access in Placencia

Grounds and apartment were well maintained and beautiful. Herbert and his wife were very friendly and helpful and did extra things for us like letting us use their clothes line. The futon in the living room made a comfortable place for my husband to sleep because of his bad back. The neighborhood was safe, quiet and near good restaurant and a bakery. One of the hotels on the beach let us use their pool and beach as long as we ordered food there. They even provided us with towels at no charge.

I can’t say enough about Driftwood Gardens or hosts Phil and Megan. If you’re thinking about booking.. stop thinking and do it, you won’t regret it! Already have my next tripped planned to stay at Driftwood Gardens. Good location, good food, and good vibes. Cheers! 🏝️

It’s a very comfortable little place to stay. Close to everything but far enough away from the centre of town that it is still quiet at night.

We absolutely loved Sunset Gecko. It is perfectly located just off the main road so it's easy to get around, but still has a lot of privacy. The condo was absolutely gorgeous and totally exceeded our expectations. The staff and chef service were fantastic

This place is perfect for a beach getaway. We traveled with our two teenage daughters and everyone had their own space. The deck is awesome and so relaxing every morning. A short walk to the beach and shops and restaurants all around within walking distance. We did not have a car as everything was so close. Candace was amazing and shared recommendations for dinner and even connected us with a snorkeling guide - AMAZING!!! The gelato place was a nightly visit for us too :) Everyone was super friendly and the beach is very safe. If you can rent it, do it!

Sandy's place was perfect for our needs. Sandy was very friendly and helpful and everything went very smoothly. Thanks for hosting Sandy! We will definitley book with you again.

In over 15 years of Air BnB rentals, this place was among my favorite! We felt as if we were staying in a true work of art. The architecture was exquisite! It was extremely comfortable and spacious with details in all the materials used. Aside from the beauty, other redeeming factors included the showers (roomy with a serious hot water and significant pressure), the views, the respectful cat who stayed outdoors, the pool (day and night) and Miriam- the incredible property manager. Cheery, informative, hard working and friendly! I worked during my stay, and the Wifi was not ideal. A 20' CAT5 cable would be ideal, if you'd need to work. We stayed four nights. My regret is that we didn't stay for double that! Sending a bow of gratitude for our time there!

This was our 8th stay in Placencia. We have always stayed at the same place which we love but it was not avaliable. Trying somewhere new was a little iffy but the Updeh Apartment at Ohana did not disappoint. The inside and outside are beautiful. We truly enjoyed our 10 days and cannot wait to go back. Thank you for everything!

Amber's Happy Place was truly amazing! You are a short distance from Placencia and in an area where you get some privacy and beach access. We originally thought we would want to be in the heart of Placencia but quickly realized that we would not have enjoyed it as much as where Amber's home is located. The inside is decorated in local art and has been tastefully done. All of the natural wood really adds to the place. We had all of the amenities that we needed and the air conditioning was able to keep us cool on those hot days. We did not want to leave! Thank you Amber's for letting us experience your amazing home! Can't wait to return!! Cheers!

All I have to say is...PERFECTION!!! We've been renting airbnb's for over 10 years and this has been the best yet. Great location, well taken care of, clean, responsive friendly hosts, great amenities and the most well stocked place I've experienced. I can't say enough great things about this place.

We’ve had a wonderful time in this beach cabin. It is incredibly well located in Placencia with tons of restaurants and scuba diving shops. It is a large lot right between the main pier and the beach with 3 cabins on it: 2 for short term rental on Airbnb closer to the beach and one slightly at the back where Arthur and Aura lives. Aura and Arthur welcomed us and explained the rules and provided recommendations. Although not the most luxurious place, the cabin was very clean and comfortable, and definitely much cheaper than other beachfront options in Placencia. So very good value for money. Hosts even refreshed the room twice during our 6 days stay, which was awesome!

We had a great family stay! Very responsive team and great amenities - View is spectacular and super clean. We loved Archie (the local dog team member) as well!!! We utilized the local chef service and they also stocked the fridge with items requested for us for our arrival. Would stay again!

The house was very comfortable and views were amazing. We loved having our own oasis away from the hustle and bustle. The location is not near the main village so would recommend having your own transportation. The kitchen had everything you'd need so we didn't have to purchase a bunch of additional items like spices. Bed was comfortable and the overall living space was great.

We are a family of 5 and recently stayed at La Vida Belize. The house was clean and comfortable with everything we needed for our stay. The plunge pool, beach and dock were the perfect place to relax after a day of adventure. We enjoyed being in a quieter area and didn’t mind the distance from the main area of Placencia. We rented a car and explored several areas in Belize during our stay. We used the guestbook for tips about the area and places to eat near Maya Beach. The grounds keepers were friendly and kept everything nice for us during our stay. The host responded quickly to any questions we had. During our week stay, some of the activities we were able to do included: snorkling with Captain Jak’s, visit the Bocawina Nation Park & Zip-line Adventure, fishing, a Monkey River tour and visit some Mayan Ruins. We also spent a good amount of time relaxing and reading on the beach or by the pool. We recommend staying here.

We love the property and keep coming back; this was our 5th or 6th straight year. We like the fact that it is pretty far north because we like to explore the beautiful country of Belize. We are still close to the great restaurants in Maya beach and can access the village relatively easily. It is clear that Greta loves the property too and does her best to take care of it and improve upon it. The progress on the fountain is great and we look forward to see it functioning in its full glory. We appreciate the effort she makes! Whenever an issue arises, we appreciate the fact that we can work together with Greta to quickly resolve it. It was also a bonus to have Phillip working on the grounds and trying to improve our esperience while we were there this year. The only downsides with our visit this year was about a week of squalling cats during the night and owls that were extremely loud during the wee hours. We are looking forward to coming again next year or perhaps even later this year.

An incredible host. Very responsive, kind, and welcoming. Kat greeted us when we arrived and was present when needed but not intrusive. Kat had plenty of recommendations for local businesses, and it's clear she's connected with her community as she reached out for solutions to a major sunburn. The place was very clean, full of amenities, and very comfortable. We had been planning this trip for over a year, and Kat was very communicative through the whole process. Highly recommend her place(s).

This villa was in a great location, in the center of the peninsula, making everything equally accessible. The space was very clean and the AC worked great! We really enjoyed the pool in the evenings and the view of the sea while swimming. The restaurant across the road has a perfect view of the sunset. The sunrise view from the balcony of the villa was so wonderful! We extended our stay because we enjoyed the villa so much.

Herbert was very nice and friendly. He was very well informed about anything we asked.. He was more than eager to help with anything that we were wanting.

We visited Placencia during Tropical Storm Sara (Nov 2024). As we have never been in a tropical storm (snow blizzards are what we are used to), it was a panic when traveling into one with our 2 children. All we ever want is for them to be safe. Tracy was kind to let us check in a couple hours earlier for peace of mind. Thankfully - the storm hit north of us and the weather improved through out our stay. We love the location - watching and listening to the waves facing the Caribbean, and then having the lagoon on the other side. My kids swam every day in the pool, even when it was pouring rain. Rosa, the caretaker, was extremely friendly and helpful. We would 100% stay here again next time we visit. The use of the kayaks was a great perk. We didn’t use the bikes.

Host was very accommodative and responsive. She also gave the space that made us feel welcomed and comfortable. There was an issue with random raccoons running around at a place nearby and host went out her way to make sure we made it to the house safely. She also forewarned us about the construction that was happening nearby which I found very respectful and we truly appreciated it. Will recommend and will stay again, Most High’s will.

Great place! Well appointed. Loved it and would stay again

we rented this place with our friends on kids. this was a perfect location. the private pool, and the beach was amazing. check in was very simple and helpful. I will definitely come back to this place again.

Extremely nice pace to stay and super close to all the festivities and restaurants

Our stay was amazing. The location was convenient to restaurants and activities. Floor to ceiling windows surround you in the primary suite overlooking the crystal clear water. Open the patio doors for a wonderful breeze! The kitchen has beautiful high end appliances and the furnishings are modern and stylish. The grounds are beautifully maintained with lots of flowering plants. We highly recommend you try the Triggerfish.
