Paradise Found! Beautiful Private Villa On The Sea in the Village of Placencia!

This GOLD STANDARD elegant, private, serene, and truly beautiful villa is set in a gorgeous tropical garden complete with a large waterfall pool, palapa dock, rooftop deck, outdoor entertainment area all right on the Caribbean Sea. This private, walled estate offers complete security, luxury, and privacy. Yet it is but a short walk (5-8 minutes only) to the centre of Placencia Village with its many artisan shops, fantastic local and international restaurants and fun beach bars. As we offer courtesy pick up service to and from the airport, all day excursion guides offer free pick up for guests staying at the villa, the majority of our guests chose not to rent a vehicle during their stay. A considerable cost saving!

The interior space is the lower level of the Villa and is approximately 2,000 square feet offering beautiful decor and every comfort of home. There are two bedrooms each with a queen sized bed and two large bathrooms. One has a beautiful outdoor shower complete with its own small private garden as well as large walk-in indoor shower. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a gas range, a large refrigerator with an ice maker and water dispenser, blender, microwave oven, dishwasher and all other equipment necessary to produce a gourmet meal which can be enjoyed in the dining area which seats six. The lounge area is complete with all you need to enjoy a relaxing evening watching television (flat screen) or listening to music. The entire area is tastefully decorated with local art and crafts and is very well maintained. Of course it has central air conditioning, free wi-fi (Skype quality) and cable television for your comfort and enjoyment.

The garden and pool area is truly beautiful! There are many paths to explore to discover its lush foliage, bountiful flowers, including many orchids, numerous types of palms and flowering shrubs, climbing vines and even fruit trees. When swimming in the large salt water pool, gazing at the sea, the large palms or the hundreds of flowers which surround it, one feels as though they are truly in the Garden of Eden! There are several cushioned lounges, chairs, even a hammock in the pool area where you can choose to rest in either the sun or the shade.

Near the pool area is also a new entertainment area complete with an outdoor kitchen. Beautiful custom made picnic table and wet bar complete with refrigerator and Caribbean style gas/wood/briquet BBQ with a smoker to prepare and enjoy those more casual meals and drinks.

The very large palapa dock is several feet from the shore and is a perfect spot to enjoy the sea breezes and watch the sailboats, visiting yachts, local fishing boats and dolphins from the very comfortable loungers. There is also a rooftop deck area with its 360 degree views of the sea, the canal and the distant mountains. Perfect spot for a sundowner while waiting for the most gorgeous sunsets the Caribbean has to offer!

All this comfort and luxury is an ideal place to spend a relaxing day in your private pool or to come home to after a day on Placencia's white sandy beaches, or on one of the many available day trips, snorkelling, sailing, diving, hiking, or exploring nearby rain forests or the ancient Mayan ruins.

Bring your e-book for reading in your hammock, your hiking shoes for local tours, flip flops for dining out and your sweetheart with or without your best friends for a fantastic, relaxing vacation.

Starfish Villa was a perfect place to spend a week relaxing with family. The unit is great and the property grounds are beautiful. Pool was very refreshing in the 35-40 degree heat. Gail was a great host who is a good source of info for local places to eat, things to see, etc.

Paradise found

I can’t say enough positive things about Gail and Pauls property! The location was perfect! We were able to walk to Placencia Village to the vast assortment of restaurants, shops and the beautiful beach. When we were heading out on various excursions (which Gail and Paul booked for us) we were able to walk across the street to their dock and get picked up either by boat or van. All of the excursions they recommended were outstanding! We especially enjoyed our trip down Monkey River and through the jungle with Percy…we loved the day tour so much we went back at night time!The Villa was beautiful both inside and out. The tropical gardens were amazing, the dock with the palapa was our favorite hang out both day and night! So many stars…Inside was equally beautiful. The accommodations were really comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. Do not hesitate to stay here! We are absolutely coming back again!

A Little Slice of Paradise

This property is better than advertised. The owners and their caretakers are friendly, responsive and they all will go out of their way to help make your trip amazing. Our two boys spent countless hours in the pool while we were able to relax on the palapa and watch the wildlife. We had a fantastic time and hope to make it back sometime soon.

Beautiful Property

The house and outdoor area were absolutely beautiful; it truly is like a tropical paradise. There are several nice places outdoor to have evening cocktails including the palapa, the covered deck on top of the house, and the pool area. The house was easy walking distance to the village with several good restaurants. And the caretaker was very helpful. Overall, it was a great experience.

Heavenly stay in Placencia

Our stay was heavenly. The pictures are accurate and better in person. It is an oasis in the town of Placencia Belize. Close enough to walk into town for supplies and dinner at the restaurants. We cooked breakfast in the house and went out for dinner every day. Plenty of choices and good eating.

A perfect getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at Starfish Villa! The property was just as listed and the photos were accurate but of course didn’t really do it justice. The pool was amazing, the dock with a an authentic palapa was a great hangout, and the rooftop deck was a perfect spot to watch the sunsets. It was a short 10 minute stroll to the village where you can find restaurants, bars, markets, and everything you need. The hosts and caretakers are very helpful and knowledgeable, and are happy to share their recommendations for local outings. We really enjoyed the Monkey River tour with Percy and also having the Thai Massage team come to the villa for spa treatments. I highly recommend Starfish Villa for your next vacation!

Exceeded Expectations!

Starfish Villa was just perfect! The grounds and home are beautiful and well-maintained with thoughtful touches that were much appreciated. Gail & Paul are excellent hosts--friendly and helpful without being intrusive. Watch for dolphins and rays from the palapa, enjoy sunset on the roof, or listen to some music while lounging by the pool, all in a premiere location! We can't wait to go back to Placencia and to stay at Starfish Villa again!

Perfect relaxation spot

Starfish Villa is an amazing property. The covered dock over water is shaded with a constant light breeze making it a terrific spot to relax. The pool is large and has great views of the water. Fabulous outdoor kitchen with large grill, full size refrigerator, and lots of seating. Outdoor area is well lite at night. Sunsets from 3rd floor are amazing. Caretakers on the property are kind and helpful. It’s a short walk into town but we rented a golf cart which made it easier to transport groceries. Highly recommend Starfish Villa.

Private Oasis with beautiful garden, pool, and views of the ocean

Property is beautiful. We stayed 7 nights and enjoyed cooking at the property, lounging in and around the pool and on the private deck. We walked into town to enjoy dinner every evening. Locals are friendly. There are lots of options for dinner in town. We enjoyed several tours with snorkling, fishing and the Jungle Monkey tour. It was super hot but cold AC in the house and while the power did go out in town, the homes generator worked to perfection. A great vacation!

A gem of a villa in a spectacular setting!

Loved our stay at this beautiful Villa down in Placencia village. We made good use of the private pool, dock and roof deck. The sunrises and sunsets were fabulous. It was a huge bonus to be able to view the Thurs. night football game on the large satellite TV - 1st game of the 2023 season!!! The Bluetooth speakers were a nice touch by the pool - thank you! We will be back and Lousia was great and informative - nice find!

Best pool ever!

The interior space of the property is more than fine, but the real attraction to this property is the outside space. The swimming pool is large and deep (7 feet) and absolutely gorgeous. The grounds around it are beautifully manicured with palms, orchids, and other flowering bushes. The palapa deck provides a lovely view of the sea and a cool breeze. We took a couple of excursions around Placencia, but spent most of our time floating around in the pool. Wouldn't change a thing!

Perfect spot!

This is one of the best places I’ve ever stayed. Hosts are friendly, helped plan some day trips and even enjoyed some tequila with the guys. The palapa is perfect for watching fish, yoga and drinking wine in the pouring rain. The pool is a clean and crisp refresher. The gardens! If you love to wander and look at fauna, I think there’s over 10 varieties of orchids here. So many other plants as well! The grounds are also very alive in lizards! This house was a great place to be. Short walk, or cart ride to town and great swimming beaches. Highly recommend this place.

Perfection in Placencia!

We stayed for a week and loved everything about the property from the beautiful grounds with all the amazing landscaping, the pool, bar and grill area to the lovely and relaxing dock with palapa to the roof top deck. The interior is spacious, beautifully decorated had all the creature comforts of home. The owners went so above and beyond to help is make sure our stay was amazing - just cant thank them enough! We had our wedding here and it was perfect. While our ceremony was small you could easily host a much larger one here on yhe grounds and not feel crowded. Its just the best spot in town. Even our wedding planner who has done over 1000 ceremonies in Belize was talking about want to refer clients here! Just book it. You wont regret it!
