Villa Tipsy Gecko was the perfect place to celebrate a 50th birthday with our group of 9. An astonishing value for the rate, the villa is fully staffed at all times with stellar service provided by Mabel, the house manager. Javier was happy to help troubleshoot the tv so we could tune into the super bowl, Mindy was delightful every day in her housekeeping rounds and Manuel served us memorable meals and was a consummate professional. All of the staff were amazing at their jobs and kind humans to boot. Really they made our stay and we are so grateful for the hospitality. Bob provided thorough communication throughout the planning process and helped us arrange transportation through a great local tour company who, by the way, were also incredible people. Zero complaints, just good times.

We had a wonderful trip, celebrating Christmas on the beach as an extended family this year. Bob was a great host, and all the staff at the villa were so helpful. The beach was beautiful and even though it poured rain several days, we enjoyed spending time together inside playing games and reading. We had lots of fun on the kayaks and paddleboards, and made good use of the kitchen. Something for everyone here!

What a great place to make memories. A private villa in a beautiful setting. . We felt right at home and the caretaker staff was great. We would have booked this place even without a chef but having the chef for three days was extra nice. Manuel is friendly and flexible and had no issues making the meals vegetarian. We liked the extras that we had not even thought off like coffee and sugar to get us started and regular restocking of filtered drinking water. The grounds and pool were kept very nice by Junior (who also promptly helped rescue us when the first golf cart decided to stop working) and we also appreciated Mindy's hard work keeping the house (and our laundry....another bonus) clean. The wifi was good. Baggo and the pool kept us entertained and we enjoyed watching manatees off the pier. Thanks for a great vacation.

Everyone from start to finish was helpful and friendly. The chef and laundry service included was amazing. Lots of things to do or chill on the dock in the hammock. A true paradise. We would definitely stay here again.

We had an amazing time, Tipsy Gecko was just perfect for our group. the staff were all wonderful, the house was even better than I expected (pictures don't quite do it justice). We enjoyed doing some tours and activities but always looked forward to getting back to the house and playing some more, relaxing, and enjoying an awesome meal when the chef came.

Awesome property in a great location - 30 minutes from Placencia. The staff was great and the entire team was very responsive. Easy to get around the peninsula and didn't have to go too far for restaurants, etc. Highly recommended - the property has everything you need for a family getaway.

So many things stood out. Great staff. Friendly, responsive, met every request with a smile. Laundry service was special. You could tell the host took pride in the house and landscaping. Beds were comfortable. A+ recommendation.
