5BR Villa in Placencia

Excellent, 2 weeks ago

Great place, the staff were amazing. The house had everything we needed and had enough room for 13 of us. Location was great. Everything we could have hoped for. Everyone went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed and to make sure the whole family had a great time. From excursions to especially the chef Patrick it was 5 stars.

We booked Hideaway Villa at the last minute after a family illness changed our travel plans, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Erica was incredibly accommodating and made the entire booking process seamless during a stressful time. The villa is beautiful, peaceful, and in a fantastic location. Our favorite feature was the private pier, where Captain Devin picked us up for an unforgettable day exploring the islands and snorkeling. It was truly the highlight of our trip. The service was exceptional from start to finish. Chef Patrick prepared incredible meals that were some of the best we’ve had while traveling, and Ovi, the house manager, went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. His hospitality and attention to detail made us feel completely at home. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting

Wow! Awesome house, great location and tremendous staff and host. We had a fantastic time at the Hideaway Villa and only wish we could have stayed longer. The house manager, Ovi, was always around and willing to help with anything we needed. He also spent a ton of time on the beach ensuring it was cleaned up and beautiful our entire stay. The pier at this house is AMAZING!! Definitely a standout feature. You can get boat tours that come pick you up directly at the pier which was super cool, but just hanging out over the water like that was a highlight for us. If you are considering this house, just do your favor and book it!! Oh, and last but far from least was the chef, Patrick. He is maybe the most talented private chef we have ever hired. Literally every meal that man made was a gift to our tastebuds. If you have the opportunity to hire him during your stay PLEASE don't pass it up :) Thanks again to Erica, Ovi and the entire crew... we look forward to doing it again in the future!!

Host Response

Thank you for the awesome review. We are so glad you had a wonderful time!!! Come back sooooon :)

Our family trip to celebrate my mom's 80th birthday was nothing short of exceptional. Traveling with a group of nine ranging in age from 10 to 80 comes with plenty of personalities and expectations, yet Hideaway exceeded every one of them. The home is beautiful, thoughtfully designed, and stocked with every amenity we could have needed. The location is breathtaking, but what truly made our stay special was the incredible team. Ovi, Dominga, and Patrick made us feel genuinely cared for, and by the end of our stay they felt more like old friends than staff. As a mom of five, a vacation where I don't have to cook, clean, do laundry, or coordinate everyone's activities feels almost unimaginable. At Hideaway, I was finally able to relax and simply enjoy being with my family. The beauty of Belize is unforgettable, but the hospitality at Hideaway made this a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Celebrating such an important milestone with my mom here is a memory our family will treasure forever.

Host Response

Thank you so much for your kind words. It was truly an honor to host your family for such a special celebration. We are delighted that Hideaway provided the perfect setting for your mom's 80th birthday and that our team helped make your stay memorable. We will be sure to share your compliments with Ovi, Dominga, and Patrick. Thank you for choosing Hideaway—we would love to welcome your family back anytime!

Absolutely LOVED everything about our stay at the Hideaway! The house and property were beautiful, clean and comfortable and there is so much to do right on the property. Patrick’s cooking was exceptional, every meal was our favorite! All of the staff were helpful and friendly and exceeded our expectations. Erica’s recommendations were fantastic for transportation and snorkeling with Devin which was an unbelievable experience. Book a trip to the Hideaway, you will be so glad you did!

Hideaway Villa was simply perfect! Our family of 10 loved the location, the view, hanging out on the pier, and the local excursions. The house was spacious and clean. Our host was helpful and responsive. Chef Patrick was a huge highlight as the food was amazing for every meal and he even gave us an impromptu cooking demonstration one day while it was raining. I would highly recommend this rental and all the meals cooked by Chef Patrick.

Hideaway Villa was an exceptional experience and vacation! Chef Patrick made it a vacation like nothing we had experienced before, as we indulged in his truly gourmet cooking served right to our kitchen table for breakfast, lunch, and dinner (and with flexible meal timing to accommodate our snorkeling trip, etc). We had 3 couples in the house, and there was plenty of extra space for more. We enjoyed the pool and many provided beach activities and sports equipment, including beach volleyball, bikes, kayaking, paddle boarding, and of course, going out on the dock with the bed/couch swing and multiple hammocks. House manager Ovi was friendly and a good resource and easily connected us to our desired activities. Thanks for a wonderful & memorable vacation!

The perfect set up for traveling with your adult kids (and I’m sure many other situations). There were so many great group activities right on site like water sports, volleyball, corn hole, and board and card games. At the same time, the property has so many spots to chill out – notably the dock, the rooftop and the second floor decks – that a person or couple can also get some quiet time even if the rest of the family is still playing or partying. Erica was super helpful with planning tips on activities at the property or around Belize. The team on site made everything easy.
