3BR villa in Placencia

Beachfront 3BR • Pool, Kayaks & Ocean Views - Villas for Rent in Placencia, Stann Creek, Belize

Herbert’s place was great for our family! We were a little concerned about the “external” stairway and having our kids on a different floor, but the stairway was enclosed and behind a locked gate - and our kids loved having some independence and a space of their own. The pool was big enough for 3 kids and four feet deep throughout. Herbert was very quick to communicate and an extremely helpful host!

The five of us really enjoyed our time -- comfortable beds, nice and clean, great A/C, well-stocked kitchen, and we especially loved the main porch off the kitchen and the kayaks. It's an extraordinarily beautiful setting from sunrise to sunset. We really recommend this place.

Super nice place - spectacular setting - off the beaten path for peace and quiet, but still close enough to restaurants and activities.  We loved it!!  Herbert was amazingly helpful!

Herbert's hacienda exceeded our expectations. The house is a great beautiful location. it is away from placencia so it is peaceful. The house is stocked well with towels and everything you need. We had a little trouble finding the place initially because it was marked wrong on the map. However,  Herbert guided us to find it. it rained most of the time we were at Herbert's house, The top deck made the rain enjoyable to sit and listen to the storms. we loved staying here.

Beautiful beach house.   A little removed from town but that is what we wanted and easy to get to anything we needed with a rental car.   Lived the look and beach right outside our back door.  Kitchen had all we needed to make meals.

It was very nice, private and peaceful place, my family and I enjoyed would love to book again, :) recomended 10/10, and Herbert was an amazing host.

Herbert place was peaceful, clean, and inviting. We all 4 enjoyed our stay and loved being greeted by the local 2 dogs everyday. The morning sunrises were amazing. We took the kayaks out twice in the morning and enjoyed the view and all the beautiful birds feeding in the shallow sea floor while the sunrise glistened. The beach was clean, but everyday plastic would be swept in by the tides. Not a lot and no fault of the host Herbert. My husband and I would pick it up everyday. Only because we are activist about a clean earth. I wish all people would recognize this problem. Thanks Herbert for the great communication and your beautiful home. We all had a great time.

He is a very responsive host! Nice place! Right on the ocean!

The home offers everything anyone could need from top to bottom.  The kitchen is especially well equipped.  Very nice having the lower-level kitchen for keeping cold drinks for easy beach and deck access.  The exterior area is very well kept including daily pool and beach clearing.  Having a washer/dryer to run a load of laundry to head home without dirty clothes in suitcase is a real bonus.  The wi-fi encountered a problem that could not be repaired immediately, and Herbert immediately offered generous compensation for the inconvenience.    Herbert is an exceptionally responsive host and provides the very best in AirBnB experiences.

It was a great place for our family vacation. Everyone had their own space but plenty of room to all of us to be together too.

Our Special Harbor villa is a great home for a larger group with plenty of space to spread out. We really appreciated 3 bathrooms, 3 queen beds, 1 king bed, 2 full kitchens, 2 large porches and so much more. The beach and pool were taken care of by Teo every morning. The beds and furniture were all very comfortable. The upstairs bedroom is open to the living room and the first floor bedrooms can hear walking upstairs very easily. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool and under the tiki hut. The double kayaks were fun to use as well. Herbert, the host, is very helpful and responsive. We recommend this home and thank our host for a lovely stay!

As advertised and appreciated accordingly.  Found it to be a convenient location for all we planned to do.

I stayed here with my boyfriend and two other couples. the space was just what we needed. I big king bed upstairs with a beautiful kitchen and deck was amazing. only thing is it's all open so someone in the living room or kitchen can clearly be heard. not a big deal for me but good to know. the downstairs had two bedrooms, with a small shared kitchen and deck. it was the perfect space for 3 couples or a family. the house was cleaner than expected, obviously well kept. though it's got houses right next to it, we felt pretty much alone. the yard is gorgeous, tons of flowers and the water is swimable and lovely. it's north of the placencia hotel so we weren't able to get a golf cart but the roads are very easy. host is kind and responsive. I will be back!!!!!!

Could not have been happier with our stay. We had three adult couples and the house was a perfect layout. The home is every bit as wonderful as advertised. It is a bit far from town, but that was ok for us. we enjoyed the peacefulness. A golf cart will get you where you need to go. Herbert is extremely communicative, responsive, helpful, and kind. We had a wonderful time here with our friends and hope to be back in the future.

Great place to vacation! We had everything we could have wanted including an awesome view, air conditioning worked well, BBQ worked nice. The area was quiet, we used the plunge pool daily & grounds were nicely maintained. Herbert suggested we rent a car which was spot on due to the location of the home and distance into town or local areas. The setup of the home was perfect for our adult family as kids could sleep in, we did our thing, no one woke anyone. Loved having three bathrooms again everyone had their own and there was no pushing anyone out-big bonus! Herbert went way above and beyond as our host. He connected with us via text when we arrived assuring we had everything we needed and was very responsive to any and all of our questions and requests. Herbert really was fantastic without being intrusive. We would rent this place hands down again..

We went to Herbert’s place with three kids: an 18 month old, a 3 year old and a 5 year old and it fit them plus 3 adults very comfortably. The additional room downstairs with a bed worked for naptime given if we were outside we could hear the kids wake up. That being said it was very beneficial to have two kitchens (one downstairs) as we cooked outside everyday whether it was lunch or dinner. The kitchens are very well equipped. The location, once you get there, is amazing. It is secluded and peaceful. There are 3 dogs that roam around so if you don’t like dogs this wouldn’t be the place for you. We love dogs so this wasn’t a problem. The drive from the airport is very easy given there us only one road in really. We were nervous in some parts at first because we weren’t sure if we were getting lost as there are only mile markers on the road generally. Not like in the states where signs are everywhere. Overall we had a wonderful stay at My Special Harbor and would recommend it!

Herbert is an amazing host! He is always available, very communicative and gives excellent directions regarding how to get to Belize and to the house itself on placencia. The house looks just like the pictures! It’s very clean, nice, has plenty of towels, bedding, kitchen supplies, etc. It is right on a beautiful beach with stunning views of the ocean! The ocean itself is beautiful, calm, and warm.

This is an absolutely gorgeous house with anything you could possibly need! Would recommend to anyone and we are looking forward to staying there again!

As others have said, Herbert is an incredible host! He was quick to answer our questions and solve any potential problems. His recommendations for restaurants in Maya Beach were spot on. Also, he was able to connect us with a boat captain for fishing (we loved being able to cook what we caught!) and snorkeling. We were a family of two adults and two kids, and the house was more than enough for us. We really enjoyed the ocean views from the terrace!

3 couples stayed for nearly a week at this home. Our host was amazingly communicative, responsive and accommodating through messaging. I appreciated the contactless check-in and out. The house was clean, beautiful, well-equipped and private. Beautiful beach and pool. (Watch out for the jellyfish, though) The beds were comfortable and A/C also much appreciated. Kitchen was equipped with all basic necessities. 3 bedrooms with attached bathrooms served us well. The neighbors were all friendly and one of them was kind enough to allow us to respectfully use their dock. The kayaks provided were so fun, also! I’d definitely recommend staying here when booking your stay in Placencia. I also highly recommend hiring a private chef one evening, that was quite a treat. Happy vacationing!

We had an amazing 2 week stay at Our Special Harbour. The house is GREAT and the location is fantastic as well as the white sandy beach. It is really great having 2 fully stocked kitchens! We enjoyed having coffee and cocktails on the rooftop deck. The views from all 3 decks are beautiful! We loved kayaking on calm ocean days and lounging by the pool with a cool drink. Close by are fabulous restaurants and grocery stores for supplies. We especially enjoyed the Catamaran Snorkel Tour with Daytripper and exploring the Mayan Ruins.  Herbert is an excellent host and the Caretaker kept the ground and pool in good condition.  We highly recommend this home and Placencia!

Don’t hesitate to choose this home. We stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute. Herbert was a wonderful host and communicated with me all the way through. The house had everything we needed and more. Please show the black Lab, Striker, extra attention. He was a great friend while we were there.

This house was perfect for two adults and three children. The pool was always clean in the mornings as well as the surrounding beach and lawns. Herbert was super accommodating and helpful. I would recommend this home to anyone looking for some R&R on the beach. Close to town and restaurants.

My family and i had an amazing time.  It was peaceful, quiet and exactly what we wanted.  I would def. rec. to sme1 else.  The  area was clean and well kept.  I really had no reason to contact the owners because there was no reason to.  Everything was working as they should and the time went by very smoothly.  The only complaint my family had was, THEY SHOULD'VE STAYED LONGER   😁😁.

This was an amazing place. Melissa is a great host and was super helpful. Please note that you will be 20-25 from the village. 5 adults stayed here comfortably. I would stay here again.

This house is great and Melissa is fantastic. Even though we were late arriving, she waited for us to get there. She was a wealth of information and very helpful. She helped us book great excursions and recommended good restaurantsfor the entire family of 6. Also the groundskeeper was helpful especially when we locked ourselves out of the house! This home is far enough away from town to give you the right amount of tranquility but close enough to head to the many grocery stores, restaurants and activities. Wifi and bluetooth devices were a bonus! I would highly recommend this home and Melissa

This place was incredible! We had 6 adults and 2 infants. The ocean was warm but had lots of seaweed so the pool was a huge plus. There are plenty of local grocery stores to get any food you could want or need, but we still ate out for at least one meal a day—so many great options near by in both Maya Beach and downtown Placencia (25 min drive). We also loved doing the Banana Farm tour and going to the local waterfalls, both within 10 minutes of the house. I had read from previous reviews that the bugs were bad but we didn’t have any problems at the house. I would 100% recommend this place for families. The pool is worth every penny and Melissa is a great host. If we come back to Belize, we will stay here again.

Melissa is most attentive to helping plan your trip and assist with any questions or issues that may come up during your stay. She was so helpful during our stay!!

Very relaxing and peaceful location. Clean and comfortable home. Functions like two units, one up and one down. Worked out well for two adults and three older teens but might be too disconnected for families with younger children since there is no true internal circulation. Stairs are covered and enclosed which was fine but definitely feels like two suites. Organic farmer stopped by on Tuesday and Friday morning with a truck full of fresh and delicious produce and meats. Highly recommend. Recommend a rental car for easy trips to grocery store, restaurants and near by sights. Placencia Village, banana farm, Cockscomb Basin Jaguar Preserve, and waterfalls are all within short drives.

This home is amazing.  It was perfect for the 6 of us to celebrate a birthday and catch up with each other.  Room to sit and visit, a kitchen that worked for my son the chef, everyone used the ocean kayaks and then took a dip in the pool.  A lot of deck sitting watching manatees and dolphins.  We will be back.

The house was beautiful and very comfortable. The views were incredible. One thing to note, the only way to get to the beach is to go out the back door, down the stairs, and around the house to where the beach is. Another option is to cut through the downstairs bedroom. Either way is not super conveinant with younger children. The upstairs balcony is amazing. Watching the sunrise and the sunset is a must! Make sure to bring/buy bug spray with Deet. The natural stuff did not keep the mosquitos and biting sand fleas away. This area of the coast has been taken over with an ugly sea grass. It has turned the water a brownish color and smells awful. This has nothing to do with our hosts, (who hire someone to clean it up every morning) but is disappointing is you are excepting crystal blue waters. We hired a dive company and they took us out to a little tiny island for the day and it was beautiful out there. I was not comfortable letting my kids swim in the water after the yard help told us to be careful of the rays that like to hide i the grass. This is going to a problem anywhere in Palencia that you stay. Melissa was SUPER helpful with directions as we drove in from the jungle in Belize and gave us some great tips for things to do. She was a fabulous host and we would rent fro them again.

This was the most amazing house! My family of 8 came here for a stay and the house is absolutely stunning! We never felt cramped - and having a private pool and beach was just amazing. It was wonderful having the pool right there on beach so that we all felt no matter if we were at beach or in the pool we were still together. The balconies are just stunning sitting outside with a coffee or mimosa while watching the surf! We even saw eagle rays jumping out of the water. The kayaks are also a great activity for right there. We split our time between trips out during the day and relaxing at the house. Melissa and Herb are SUPER responsive - it never took more than a few moments to get feedback. All the recommendations in their guide book are spot on - restaurants, day trips, and companies to use. We loved this spot so much we had to extend our stay - the worst part was having to leave! We will definitely be staying with Melissa in the future here! Can’t wait to return!

We (family of 4) had a great time in One Particular Harbour! The pool and the kayaks are such a nice extra to this place, we went out on the sea every day. There is a groundkeeper that comes daily to clean the pool and the grounds. Melissa, the host was very responsive and there when needed (to show the house, when we left, when we accidentally locked some belongings in the safe without adding a code ...). House is clean and has everything you need. Patio and upstairs balcony are so nice to sit and watch out over the sea.

Great place! We loved having the pool and beach!

Had an excellent time ,nothing beats a private beach and pool. Hope to return next year ,house was clean and had every thing we needed would highly recommend .

Amazing house - quiet, safe and comfy. This house was perfect for 8 people. Kids had a blast in the pool and the kayaks were a hit with the teenagers. Check-in is easy and everything you need is at the house. The location is about 20minutes outside of placencia but it was ok if you plan excursions in advance. Highly recommend staying here!!

Great place. Lovely time with family and friends. Thank you 

One Particular Harbor is beautifully located on a private beach. The house has three private suites that works really well with multiple adults or teens. The air conditioning and screens throughout helped to keep the house comfortable.
