Villa in Placencia

We had a fantastic stay at Casa del Sol in Placencia. The house is spacious, comfortable, and had more than enough room for our family to spread out and relax. The location is great. You can easily walk to the Placencia Sidewalk and all of the local restaurants, shops, and attractions, so we didn't even use a car. The beachfront pool was one of our favorite features. It was the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring, and having the Placencia Beach Club right next door was a huge bonus. Being able to grab great food and cocktails without going far made the experience even better. Casa del Sol is also an excellent base for snorkeling and scuba diving. The tour operators picked us up right at the house, which made our excursions incredibly convenient. A special thank you to Shane, the property manager, who was outstanding from start to finish. Communication was excellent before and during our stay, and he shared great local recommendations.

Thank you so much for the fantastic review! We are thrilled to hear that Casa Del Sol served as the ultimate home base for your family’s Placencia getaway. It’s always great to hear when guests get to enjoy the "no-car-needed" perk of being so close to the Sidewalk, along with the convenience of swim-up cocktails right next door at Placencia Beach Club. Having tours pick our guests up right at the villa for snorkeling and diving is definitely one of our favorite features to offer, and I'm so glad it made your excursion days effortless. It was a true pleasure hosting you all and helping with your trip plans. We’d love to welcome your family back for another pool-and-beach adventure the next time your travels bring you to Belize!

The location is excellent - right on the beach and close to town.  Be careful entering the ocean - watch for rocks and such, and the no-see-ums.  Unfortunately, a huge bloom of seaweed washed onto the beach a couple of days into our trip and made it unusable (and stinky) along much of the peninsula's onshore coast.  The house is big and the four bedrooms worked perfect for the eight of us (7 adults and an infant).  The huge patio area was perfect for hanging out with the family.  We were surprised by the lack of an oven, but my daughter (a private chef) made due and prepared some great meals, regardless.   The property is a little worn but had the perfect relaxed beach house vibe we wanted as opposed to a line of new cookie cutter side-by-side houses.  Snorkeling and diving were great out on the barrier reef (day trip) and the monkey river cruise brought us face to face with an entire howler monkey family.  Great trip, great place and Shane was a great host!

Thank you for the wonderful review! It was a pleasure hosting your family, and we are so glad the house provided the perfect relaxed vibe for your group—having a private chef in the family certainly sounds like the best way to enjoy those meals on the patio! I’m glad you mentioned the kitchen; while we don’t have a traditional standalone oven, our microwave is actually a convection oven capable of baking and roasting, which usually surprises our guests once they give it a try! Regarding Mother Nature, the seaweed can certainly be unpredictable. While we can't control when it arrives, our team works hard to rake and clear it as quickly as possible. By staying on top of the cleanup, we're usually able to keep the beach usable and ensure that any smell is non-existent by the time you're back at the house. It sounds like you had some incredible adventures at the reef and Monkey River! We truly enjoyed having you all at Casa Del Sol and hope to see you back in Placencia again soon.

We had an amazing stay at Casa del Sol. The home, deck, and pool were top notch. You can easily walk to town from the home. Shane was a very responsive host. We’ll be back!

Our family had a wonderful time at Casa del Sol! The location was stunningly beautiful and the perfect setup next to the Placencia Beach Club at the beginning of Placencia’s infamous “main street”. Casa del Sol’s pool was a perfect private play area for our kids and having the Beach Club right next door was perfect for a quick snack, change of scenery, or grabbing a cocktail with attentive and incredibly friendly staff. The house had a few areas that need a bit of maintenance attention. Nothing major and when we had an issue with the coffee pot it was immediately fixed by Shane. Our family loved the tours that were coordinated through the booking, making a seemless transition from rest and relaxation to enjoying the adventures Belize has to offer. Would recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful setting yet close to all the amenities of Placencia.

Fantastic house in Belize! Great location, walkable to town but on the edge of everything so very peaceful. Some traffic noise at night but not too bad. The outside area is truly spectacular with large covered sitting areas, an amazing pool right on the beach, and useful amenities like an outdoor shower and downstairs toilet. Shane was extremely communicative and quick to respond.

Thank you for the fantastic review! We are so glad you enjoyed the "edge of town" location, it’s a favorite feature for many of our guests, as it offers a peaceful beach vibe while remaining a quick stroll from the heart of the village. It is great to hear that the outdoor space was a highlight for you. The pool area, outdoor shower, and the downstairs bathroom are definitely key for those long days spent between the sea and the pool. Regarding the road noise, being close to the amenities of the village can occasionally bring a bit of the local bustle your way, but we’re glad it didn't take away from your overall relaxation. It was a pleasure communicating with you throughout your stay. We hope to welcome you back to Casa Del Sol the next time you are in Belize!

Take advantage of Shane's help in planning some adventures, we went in not knowing what to expect and had one of the best trips ever. The beach club next door makes the trip so easy, great food, great drinks.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay at Casa Del Sol.  Most guests love the access to Placencia Beach Club right next door. They say it makes it feel like being at a resort without paying to stay at a resort! Hopefully you'll come back and visit it us again soon.

Casa del Sol was a great vacation for our family. With the pool and beach club, you didn’t need to leave! Shane made the trip really easy by transporting us to and from the airport, he helped booked outings and organize meals at home for us. Thank you, Shane!

It was great to have you and your guests stay with us as Casa Del Sol. It is always fun to see kids enjoying the pool and beach. If you ever decide to visit Placencia in the future, please look us up, we'd be happy to host you again.

Location was the BEST for us.  Home is for sale if anyone is interested.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review and letting us know how we did. You're right, the location of Casa Del Sol makes it one the best multi-room properties in Placencia. Close enough to walk to everything, far enough away to still be quiet. Let us know if you plan to come back to Placencia, we'd love to have you stay with use again.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. It was great to have you and your group here at Casa Del Sol for a few days this last week. Since you visited during the "busy season" for Placencia, accommodation pricing everywhere will be at the highest point of the year. If you decide to come back for another visit, take a look at August to November dates as that is the lowest point of our "slow season". Plus, airfare will also be cheaper during the non-busy times of the year.

Great location & next door to the Beach Club which offered food & drinks at reasonable prices + use of their swim up pool bar (very friendly staff!). House had a great space under the deck with lounge chairs & seating facing the pool & beach which was a great place for relaxing, eating at the two tables & playing games. House was well equipped with lots of dishes, glasses & silverware (might be time for a new skillet). Our host stocked groceries at our request. Our host also booked massages which we enjoyed on the deck. Some issues…air in front bedroom had issues with air conditioning, back master bedroom needs to have shower head replaced, middle bedroom off kitchen the light in shower was not working properly so a little dark. Great things…host was super attentive, house roomy and open, a coffee/wine/ice cream bar was steps away, clean beach, great decks upstairs and downstairs with plenty of room and seating for large groups. Don’t miss the Placencia sidewalk lifeblood of village!

Thank you for leaving a review and letting me know about a few minor issues that you encountered during your stay. I will be sure to have the maintenance team look into those and get them corrected as soon as possible. Let me know the next time your travels bring you to Placencia. I'd love to hose you again.

The hosts were proactive and responsive. The location was very accessible both for arrival and to the Plancencia attractions.

Shane did a great job for us and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Casa del Sol.  Everything was organized and as advertised.  Shane helped coordinate great excursions for our whole family and put considerable attention into tailoring the experience for us.  We recommend Shane highly and look forward to working with him again!

Thank you for leaving a review. I am glad to read that you and your family enjoyed your Christmas trip to Placencia, Belize and to Casa Del Sol. If you decide to visit again, please let me know. I'd love to host you again.

Excellent location.  The Placencia Beach Club bar is steps away!  They have food as well, delivered right to the outdoor eating area of the house!  Shane scheduled all our excursions.  Beta (sp?) ordered a cake (BEST WE HAVE EVER HAD) with only a 24 hour notice for my husbands 50'th birthday!  We can't say enough about this place & the staff at the Placencia Beach Club!!

Awesome place and would recommend to anyone! Shane picked us and dropped us off at the airport, was very accommodating with the golf cart rental and gave us some great food recommendations. The location allowed for our excursion boat to pick us up just next store so we didn’t have to drive anywhere! Great location!

Glad you enjoyed your time here at Casa Del Sol. The tour boat dropping you off right on the beach is a HUGE plus. Let me know if you decide on a return visit.

8 of us went in for a 60th birthday/girls trip. We had an AMAZING time! The location was perfect, the house, pool and beach was exactly as described and then some. Communications with Shane was always prompt and he was so easy to work with! We will be back! Shane organized us a golf cart, massages at the house and a chef for dinner one night. Definitely went the extra mile for all of our requests. The beach club and coffee shop next door is so convenient. All the staff was very nice and food was excellent. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

We had a great time in Placencia.  Our host Shane, was very helpful and communicated quickly from the minute we booked our stay til the day we departed.  This house was exactly as described. Perfect location with a pool right on the beach.  Very clean and lots of space to hangout.  The free access to  Placencia Beach Club next door was also a added bonus and a great experience.  Will definitely be back!

Casa del Sol was the perfect haven for our group of 7. Shane is a super host and is very attentive. Lots of recommendations and overall great resource for your trip. The house is perfect for get togethers. The inside is nice and clean. We loved the master suite. The outside is just as nice. Great pool and great beach. Shane also owns the pool club next door, so we stopped by often for drinks and food, even getting them delivered at the house. The staff there is great and will help you with all your needs. Shout out to Dr. J. Overall 10/10.

So glad that enjoyed your time at Casa Del Sol. The combination of the pool / beach at the villa, the Beach Club next door, and the coffee / ice cream shop just a few steps away make this a great rental property. I look forward to hosting you again when your travels bring you back to Placencia.

We are a group of friends coming to Belize to dive. We also like good food and drink. The house had a great beach club bar next door and a fantastic coffee and  ice cream restaurant a few steps away. We rented golf carts and were in town in two minutes. Shane was there every step of the wY to navigate changes to our diving due to weather. He organized massages at the villa and a dinner too. We had an awesome time and will definitely be back. Shane is the best!!!  The Villa was awesome with every bedroom having a private bathroom. The beachfront pool was amazing after a day on the ocean. Oh and Shane booked our diving too. We just showed up and relaxed.

Thank you for taking the time to write us a review. So glad that you enjoyed your time here at Casa Del Sol. We look forward to that return trip that you mentioned.

Nice place.  Great service. Couldn’t ask for anything better. Stay was delightful and painless

The place was amazing. The location was top notch. Close enough to town to enjoy restaurants and shops. But far enough to still feel private. Pool was wonderful and the beach was well tended. The home had many areas for activity. Lots of tables and seating for recreation and gathering. Shane was a great host. Quickly responsive and eager to help. He was near enough to help but didn’t hover. Over all, I would not pick another location in Placencia. We’ve already decided to go back as a family, and will definitely go to Casa del Sol!

Thank you for the great review. Glad that enjoyed your time at Casa Del Sol. I hope the sailing trip was great and that we see you next time you pass through Placencia on you rway to a sailboat!

The place was better than advertised.  The house was private and the view was incredible.  We were greeted at the airport by Shane and then went to the beach club next door for lunch, which was great.  Also we set up a tab at the beach club and a few other times we ordered delivery from there to the house, so that made it extra special for the convenience (kind of like room service).  The location was convenient to Placencia Village (about a mile away and merely a few mins by golf cart).  An extra bonus was the coffee shop near the place.  Finally Shane set us up on a few excursions (extra cost) that made the experience even more memorable.  We left Placencia with a special place in our hearts and the villa had a good part in the overall experience.  Would definitely stay there again.
