Placencia is the second most popular tourist destination located in Southern Belize. It is located on a 16 mile long peninsula that is surrounded by the Placencia Lagoon on one side and the Caribbean Sea on the other. It is much smaller, less congested and more laid back than Ambergris Caye / San Pedro. Being on a peninsula and not an island, Placencia provides easy access to the Belize Rainforest and many activities on the mainland like Mayan Ruins, waterfalls, zip lining and cave tubbing to name a few. Placencia offers numerous restaurants, small shops and bars and is home to famous Placencia Sidewalk and is the perfect place for an amazing Caribbean vacation.

All international flights coming into Belize land at the Belize City Airport (BZE). Our full time concierge will work with you to arrange transportation from BZE to the property. Getting from BZE to the villa is easy with 3 options available.

Option 1 is to take a short (approximately 30 minute) local commuter flight from BZE to the Placencia Airstrip where you will be met by one of the Gecko Properties staff and taken directly to your villa. Our concierge will work with you to book these flights once you have your international flights booked and locked in.

Option 2 is to take a van shuttle from BZE to the villa. The driver will meet you outside of baggage claim. The drive from BZE to the villa is around 2.5 hours. The roads are all paved and a good portion of the drive is on the beautiful Hummingbird Highway that goes through the Maya Mountains. Our concierge will work with you to get this booked again once you have your international flights booked

Option 3 is to rent a vehicle at BZE and make the drive down to the villa yourself. There are numerous rental car agencies right across the parking lot from baggage claim including Hertz Avis and Crystal Car Rental a larger local car rental company. You would just need to go online to book and secure a vehicle prior to arrival.

This place is amazing!
We went on a birthday trip with 8 ladies and this villa was perfect! The location is great and the house is beautiful. It's right on the beach! Everyone had their own bed and each room had it's own private entrance. We had a lot of fun getting to town on the golf carts. All of the on-site staff were very helpful and wonderful to us during our stay. The concierge, Erica was so great from the day we booked this place, she was so helpful with the planning of meals and excursions and was always available if we had any questions or concerns while there too! The chef made delicious meals and really made it easy for all of us with dietary restrictions. And don't forget about the cutest villa cat "mission" who entertained us with his daily naps and nocturnal energy! I would say the only negative thing we experienced was figuring out the separate grocery/chef and tip bills at the end of trip. Getting that all figured out was not fun, I would suggest that gecko reservations finds a better method for that.

Our stay was absolutely amazing! The staff could not have done better or more! They took extremely good care of me and my family of 11. Should have had Anthony (the chef) cook for us all week - best food ever! None of us wanted to leave and are already thinking about returning! HIGHLY recommend staying at Mission Bay and visiting Placencia! People are so nice and it’s beautiful there!

Great staff and location - listing slightly off on bedrooms
Overall we had a great stay. 7 adults and 4 kids. The layout of this house is awkward is why I am not rating it higher. The bedroom adjoining the open kitchen and living area has a wall that does not reach the ceiling and swing doors. This limits privacy and the ability for those occupants to go to bed/sleep in if others are in the living room or kitchen. Also, the house is extremely choppy as one has to go outside and take different stairwells to get to different rooms on the 2nd and 3rd floors. Not a deal breaker - but felt the bedroom should have been called out at a minimum.

Perfection
We had two families traveling together for a total of nine adults. The accommodations worked perfectly for us. Each of four couples had a private room with an en suite, as did the one single person. The rest of the time we gathered in the open-to-the-outside first floor dining and living area. It was perfect for reading, eating, playing games and taking in the beautiful view. From there, it was just a few steps to the pool or the ocean. We enjoyed the golf cart rides into Placencia (about 25 minutes). The staff was truly amazing! The caretaker, chef and housekeeper were all friendly and great at what they did. We enjoyed visiting with them, but they never intruded. We have no complaints, and would happily stay here again.

We loved this place! It was super clean, and our hosts were amazing and blessed us with some amazing meals. Our only regret is we didn't have them cook more for us. Namir and Anthony were the best!!! The only small complaint we have is the paddle boards did not appear to be very sea-worthy. Otherwise, we would absolutely stay here again in the future.

Mission Bay is exactly what you would expect; lovely beach, great pool, perfect house, and a terrific location! Even with a large group, all the bedrooms felt private and we had great spaces to spend time all together. The staff was amazing and kept everything very clean and organized. The chef prepared delicious meals and made accommodations, as needed. It’s the rainy season in Belize, yet we still had great weather, just some rain at night. The village was very quiet, making it a great time to go, though some places were shut down during this slow time. We cannot wait to go back to Belize and will definitely be staying at Mission Bay again!

Five Star Stay
From the beginning it was a perfect vacation. We had arranged a shuttle from the airport and when we arrived they had chips and salsa and tropic juice waiting for us. It was nice having our own pool and the beach was right outside the gate. Super convenient with the golf cart to get to restaurant and stores. I will be honest, if anyone rates this less than a 5 I am not sure what they are looking for in a vacation home.

We loved Belize and it’s people! After rescheduling 3 times due to Covid we finally made it! Seventeen in our group - age range 64 down to 18 months! The property was perfect - although it obviously needed a little TLC (we were told changes were coming)! Namur and Anthony were the best - they treated us like family and we were sad to leave them! The pool and beach and dock were awesome! There was a lot of sargassum seaweed but that was out of our control!

Unbelizeable!
It was amazing and fulfilled all of our dreams and expectations! Our caretaker Namir was beyond helpful! She answered all of our questions and was very considerate of all of our needs. She is wonderful! The villa met all of our needs- plenty of bedrooms, kitchen, living room, plenty of beach, sun and shade, plus the pool! We chose not to do any tours because of covid, no need to, the villa had so much to offer. We had such a relaxing time, lots of games, poolside, meals and bonding with family. We spent a lot of time in the outdoor sitting area. Never a bad moment! Our family consisted of 8 - us, my husband and I -(the grandparents), our children and theirs, (our grandchildren). Never a dull or bored moment! We did use the golf cart for a daily trip to get groceries. Everything fresh and different everyday. Great experience. We also took a taxi to the village for some Balizian life experiance. Thank you for opening up the villa to us. We do plan to come back when covid leaves us alone so we can once again enjoy the laid back life of Belize, maybe stay longer!

Very spacious and great location
The location is great and the pier and pool were wonderful. There are places to walk to for meals, drinks, and exercise. We loved having a golf cart to get to the grocery store and to explore. Namir and Anthony took good care of us and we enjoyed the home cooked food. For a party of 9 there was plenty of space and we especially enjoyed the first floor common area. The only negative is that the house needs some updating and upkeep and the SUP boards were very tired and not usable. I definitely recommend.

Nice location for large family gathering
The location is really nice since it is right on the water and within walking distance to Inky’s for food, exercise, and drinks. The golf cart is fun and gets you to more restaurants and the grocery store. The house is large and was spacious for our group of 9. The pier was a favorite spot for sunrise, shade, yoga, and cocktails. Namir and Anthony took wonderful care of us and made us really good food. The pool was perfect. The only downside was that there has not been enough upkeep including replacement of SUPs which were quite old and tired. Otherwise, it was a lovely vacation.
