Amazing House in Perfect Location
We just spent Thanksgiving week at this amazing house and it did not disappoint. House was simply phenomenal. 4 large bedrooms and 4 large bathrooms, a great sunroom, and literally a large sanded backyard. Pool was big, kayaks and SUP right there, and there is a private beach. The property caretakers were the best. Every morning the beach was raked and we came home to a spotless house every night after activities. Ruben’s key lime pie was the best thing I’ve ever had - highly recommend eating in at least a bit because his food was our favorite. You’re just outside the village so we did take our golf cart into town to eat and explore. We hope to come back - don’t hesitate to book asap. It is pretty special.

Absolutely Incredible!
This house was perfect for our family of 6. So comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. The pool and beach are stunning. Great location. The best part is Ruben and Mariza's incredible care taking. They help with whatever you need and keep the house tidy. The cooked for us three times and it was amazing. We absolutely loved our stay and would love to come back!

A slice of heaven!
This house was a perfect retreat for our family vacation. The large beach front property is beautifully maintained and equipped with everything we needed to enjoy our time. Ample outdoor seating and pool floaties are available to enjoy the cool, saltwater pool. The view to the beach and ocean is unobstructed and beautiful. Inside, we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. Comfortable beds, plenty of towels for the pool and beach. Air conditioning. Grill. Washer/dryer. The house managers live on site and are kind, attentive and helpful. We definitely hope to return to this property.

Amazing vacation
Our group was celebrating milestone birthdays for 3 of us and we could not have picked a better place to stay. Reuben and Mariza were amazing. They were always available when needed but never obvious. They provided advice for where to purchase groceries/fruit and recommendations for activities. The home was comfortable and had everything we needed. The food they made was amazing! Fish was off the boat that day and the deserts were to die for! Others have spoken about Rex, the gentle gian, but Coco was also such a sweetie. The iguanas were a treat to watch from the pool. The location of the home was perfect…close to the village but still away from the bustle. Also easy to head north to 1981 where we had an amazing dinner. Overall this is an amazing home with awesome caretakers. We would definitely return.

Beautiful Property, Excellent Service
Ruben and Marissa are wonderful. They made us excellent dinners, cleaned our rooms and provided fresh towels on a regular basis and answered all of our questions! The home is well laid out for four couples with plenty of room to gather and enjoy the beautiful beach and pool area. The kitchen is well stocked. We had a little trouble reaching them when we are on our way from the airport due to bad cell reception. I don't know if it would help to know the mile marker ahead of time so that you could be on the lookout for the property. We highly recommend The Rotonda if you are planning a trip to Placencia.

Amazing, Personal Resort
We have stayed at quite a few different VRBO's in many locations across the US and the Caribbean and this was, by far, our favorite place we've ever stayed. The pool was the perfect size for everyone to enjoy and there is a great sand area plus your own beach. It really feels like your own private resort. The snorkeling was great (stingrays, jellyfish, starfish, barracuda, and even a manatee) and the use of kayaks and paddleboards was an added bonus. The caretakers, Ruben and Mariza were so gracious, friendly, and helpful. The meals Ruben prepared were amazing. Make sure you get the chocolate cake!! The proximity to the village and shopping makes this a fantastic location as well. We can't recommend this highly enough.

Birthday and snorkeling trip
I booked this trip to help celebrate a big bday for one of my girlfriends who also loves snorkeling. Four of us (all over 65) ended up coming and none of us knew too much about Belize and boy did we hit a winner (sorry, we are all tennis players) I can’t say enough about how terrific the owner was prior to arrival, answering so many questions and giving great advice. The home and its setting is paradise. It was just perfect for us. We took advantage of the Kayaks, bikes, snorkeling off the beach and swimming in the pool. The caretakers Ruben and Marisa are just next door on site and were so helpful and great chefs who will prepare a meal when you want to eat at home. The Rotunda is close to town by bikes or golf cart. We did two snorkeling excursions and two others one by boat to the Monkey River and one to the Mayan ruins that included cave tubing. None of our trips were booked before we arrived and Ruben was very helpful In booking them. We had him prepare a seafood dinner upon arrival after a long travel day and again on our last night. Please don’t miss out on his culinary skills (key lime pie and chocolate cake) All of the local people are so friendly and we had nothing but good food, drink (lots of rum punches) and experiences in the village. Quite a memorable trip and checked a few items off the “bucket list”. You will love this home and Belize.

Placencia with 4 couples
The house is stunning and sparkling clean. Air conditioning works well and beds are super comfortable. On site property managers took such good care of us - booking massages, making delicious dinner and cake, raking the sand daily, bringing fresh towels, getting us bicycles...WOW! We had 4 couples here and had our meals in the screened in patio and it was perfect. I would definitely recommend this property. As a tip to future travelers - we were glad we had a rental car to get around.

Can’t beat the beach and pool here
This place was perfect for our two families of four. Two of the bedrooms are completely separate (you have to go outside to enter), which was nice for a little bit of separation. Kitchen has full size appliances and a dishwasher! The screened in porch is great for evening bugs. Ruben takes amazing care of the grounds. He was outside raking the sand every morning (I think he sprays for bugs too, which was great. We definitely got way more bug bites when we went out to dinner at night than when we stayed home). We had Ruben and Mariza cook for us two nights and it was sooo delicious. Agree with everyone else, much better than the food we got out. Everyone raves about the key lime pie which was delicious, but the chocolate cake was amazing! Definitely get the 2 for 1 pizzas at Turtle Inn on Sunday night. They are great. The water and beach right at the house were perfect for our 5-8 yo kids. They loved the kayaks and SUP. On calm days, you can go quite far up and down the shoreline. It’s very close to the airport but no early or late flights. It really didn’t disturb our experience. We rented a car and drove from BZE. Easy drive and given the location, was really necessary. You are far enough from Placencia town and/or Maya Beach that you will want transportation. Amazing place, would definitely recommend!

An amazing stay
We had an amazing stay at La Rotonda. The property was clean and very well cared for. The grounds are lush and beautiful, home to geckos, iguanas and so many birds. There was more than enough room for all 3 generations to spead out and enjoy. Ruben and Mariza were absolutly wonderful to have on the property. The beach is raked and pool deck swept daily and we had turndown service in the bedrooms and kitchen every other day. We enjoyed 3 meals in, cooked by Ruben and Mariza and they were some of the best meals we had. Communication with the owner was easy and quick. We honestly cant say enough good things about this place and look forward to our trip again next year. Do not hesitate to book this property, you will not regret it!!! Thank you Ruben, Mariza and Hee De! We feel so blessed by our time at Rotonda.

Wouldn’t change a thing
Oh my goodness, we miss La Rotonda and Ruben and Maritza already! This was the PERFECT property for a relaxing family vacation with our children and their partners. The house and grounds are immaculate and beautiful. There are only good surprises to be found. It's exactly as described on VRBO only better. Hee was wonderful in communicating with me after we booked, answering my questions and prompting me to get my golf carts reserved. I was able to send a grocery list to her so that staples were already in the house when we got there. That was a huge convenience. She really wanted us to have a great stay! I can't say enough about Ruben and Maritza. They are very knowledgable about Placencia and have great tips for what to do and where to dine. They'll arrange anything for you - tours, massages, airport transportation. They kept the house and the grounds spotless, something we didn't expect as part of the house rental. But the best thing they do is their cooking service. We ate out a few times to get out of the house and see the island, but the meals they prepared for us were by far the best. It's not the cheapest way to dine in Placencia, but the quality and quantity is wonderful and we always had leftovers to eat the next day. Ruben even made a chocolate birthday cake for my daughter and Maritza provided beautiful decorations. Thank you for a truly beautiful week. We hope to come back someday!

Heaven in Placencia
Our stay at was phenomenal. Our entire family enjoyed the vacation over Christmas and the New Year. Ruben and Mariza, who run the property, made our lives an absolute joy and cooked both a Christmas and a 60th Anniversary dinner for our group. We could not have asked for a better way to spend the time together. Ruben and Mariza were so gracious in helping with certain event plans, such as snorkeling, making restaurant reservations, etc., which really was a great help. The property is in the most stunning location and perfect for a quiet Belizean get away. We look forward to our future trips back.

Wonderful Property and Location near Placencia
The property was accurate to the listing and pics. Ruben and Mariza were wonderful hosts and amazing human beings. They were available everyday for questions as well as providing 5star service and in-home chef services. As others have said, Ruben’s key lime pie was AMAZING! The meals they prepared were always delicious and authentic. Property management communication and setup were 5 stars as well! Golf cart was awaiting our arrival and we hit the ground running! 😀 The pool was perfect and we spent hours everyday enjoying the view, and hanging out in the deck chairs. Oh yeah, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Rex, the house dog! Rex was awesome and quickly learned who we were and kept everything else away from us! Rex is a lover so be aware! And try to go easy on the treats…he’s on a diet! 😀 This property is great for adult friends, families and get togethers! If you are thinking of booking this property, rest your mind and DO IT! Book it now! Excellent air conditioning in the home and 5 bathrooms! (1 for each of the 4 bedrooms and 1 at the entrance of the home) The property is about a 10-15 min ride in the golf cart to the farthest points in Placencia. Tranquility and good times await you here! We look forward to a return visit and can’t thank Hess, Ruben and Mariza enough!

"We had a fantastic time at this beautiful house in Belize! The location was perfect - right on the the beach and a quick drive to Placencia Village. The house itself was spacious, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. We loved spending time on the large, private deck, taking in the stunning views of the ocean and the surrounding area. The pool was also a highlight, providing a refreshing oasis on hot afternoons.

We could not have asked for a better home to enjoy our Placencia vacation. We have previously stayed in the Maya Beach area and preferred this location as it was closer to the airport and the village. Ruben and Mariza are so sweet and helpful, and we fell in love with Rex (the house dog). We will definitely considering staying again when we return to beautiful Placencia!
