The house was exactly as described and perfect for us. Nothing fancy but had everything we needed. The kayaks and bikes were a huge bonus! It’s a little far from the villlage but we had everything we wanted within walking distance (great restaurants and a small grocery store). Hopefully we can make it back someday and I would choose this house again.

Our stay at Casa Beya was wonderful. The house is very cute and full of artful details. You can see it was built with love. There are good restaurants near the house, and a 10 min car drive to the grocery store. The highlight was the swing bed on the porch and the view of the night sky from the beach, we even saw a falling star. Martin was very helpful arranging for day trips. We would consider coming back to Casa Beya if we return to Belize.

Sweet Home in Need of TLC!!
We rented CB as an anniversary getaway. Based upon the photos & description, we planned on spending time swimming & relaxing on the beach & dock. While we did have privacy & there are a lot of positives about the home, many exterior features are in need of repair/maintenance. This may have something to do with the property’s current listing status for sale. There apparently are plans to repair/refurbish things after our stay.(?) The location is great. As others have said, great pizza across the street & delicious dining up the beach at Maya Beach Bistro. Communication was off, as the caretaker (Martin) was unsure of the number in our party upon our arrival, despite our previous notes to property mgr. Martin also neglected to inform us that there was a make-shift ladder for the dock. (There wasn’t one attached per the VRBO photos.) He did apologize for not telling us sooner (than our last day)! On arrival, we were super sad to discover a plastic-laden beach. Martin said a storm had washed it in the day before, but not sure why he hadn’t cleaned it up?! (There was a LOT.) My husband and I are environmentally conscientious, so we cleaned it & continued daily to clear the plastic from both CB’s beach & next door (vacant). AFA other aspects of cleaning, we discovered a petrified avocado in a cupboard (Eww!!) We also found ourselves having to sweep the deck regularly because of the decaying thatched roof. Missing ladder aside, the dock flooring itself is in need of replacement. Half of the beach/dock furniture was broken & in need of repair. The interior of the house is cute & colorful as pictured. Well stocked kitchen. Bed is just ok, but sleeps well after rum punch, no worries! Pillows should be replaced. BUT, the view from the master is awesome. Truly wonderful to wake up to each morning! Having the large water dispenser is also a nice touch. Wish there would’ve been working bikes. (A slight inquiry was made by Martin on our arrival of our intention to ride, but it seemed it was going to take some repair for them to be available to us, so we let it go.) Blessings bakery/sweet rolls & Marina’s fruit stand in Seine Bight are fab. All in all, a lovely location, a sweet house with incredible views, yet a potential that is [currently] left unfulfilled. We would love to return with our kids if the house was a bit better maintained & some effort (outside our own) was made to remove the plastic from the beach each day!

It was nice.
House is a work of art but needs some TLC. Having direct access to the beach was a big plus. Being on the peninsula though means you’re also on the main road which is loud. The bowling alley across the street is loud as well with patrons. There is no generator so when the electricity goes off you not only lose that but also water. We still enjoyed ourselves with activities and restaurants near the house and in the village.

Everything was great, but….
The house is as described. It is unique, clean and has a beautiful beach. The sargassum came in and wrecked a few days for us, it was smelly and piled up on the beach. The beauty part of that is the pier, which has a ladder out far enough to get past the weeds. Martin and Diana were great, they checked with us every day and were very attentive to our needs. The but….the property is for sale. We had 6 different appointments that the people only showed up twice. This was quite inconvenient, we had to make sure everything was put away and presentable (we are on vacay, sometimes that doesn’t happen), then they didn’t show. We sometimes left and sometimes we’re on the beach waiting for them to come and go. To me this is unacceptable and we will make sure future properties are not for sale prior to renting.

Casa Beya was an absolutely perfect place for my family (two teenager boys and parents). It was comfortable inside, had an incredible number of outdoor decks with views and the picturesque location could not be beat. We enjoyed the water, hammocks, kayaks and the location near an amazing number of sea and jungle activities. Martin and Diane were warm, friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!

Exactly as presented
I stayed at Casa Maya for 5 weeks. It was a great experience. Diana and Martin helped with everything from booking taxis to suggesting restaurants and activities. We rented a golf cart to get to and from PLacencia and walked everywhere else. The beach and dock were where we spent much of our days. We took several excursions. I recommend Taste Belize. We went with them to the spice farm and also to the cacao farm to make chocolate. It was easy to get fresh fruit and vegetables and local fruits in season. Also, it was lobster season which we really enjoyed. A new bakery opened within walking distance of the house which was terrific. We used the SUPs and the bicycles to explore from the seas and land. The house had everything we wanted. It was perfect for a long stay.

Classic Beach House
Casa Beya is right on the beach with a great dock and outdoor porches, including a hanging napping bed. Even though it's right on the main road into Placencia, the traffic dies down at night and is pretty quiet. With kayaks and SUP's, it is a great place to wind down after climbing the Mayan temples inland. And it is a 2 minute walk to a wonderful restaurant, Maya Beach Bistro, which is open for all 3 meals.

Everything you need, nothing you don't
We had a great stay at Casa Beya, and Midge plus the on-site managers were wonderful to work with. Location: we loved the location in Maya Beach and walked to the best restaurant on the peninsula, Maya Ocean Club, often and it was only 100 yards away. This location is NOT close to the main Placencia Village, which we were very okay with. We rented a golf cart for a few days, and it was a leisurely 25 min. ride to the main village. There was a basic grocery store a 2 minute bike ride away (bikes are provided). The House: The house has a great layout, and was very clean. If you are looking for luxury, go elsewhere, but we felt it was amazing value. The beds were very comfortable, and sheets were soft. The 3rd bedroom is up some steep stairs, and the bathroom for that room is downstairs, but since we only had 2 couples and a baby, it worked fine for us. The house is a little older, and had a few 'quirks' but it added to the charm. It was very CLEAN, which we appreciated. We especially enjoyed eating outside, which is actually on the second level, and worked well to stay away from most of the sand fleas. The kayaks, bikes, and paddle boards were an amazing amenity, and allowed us to go paddle with the manatees that swam by. The private dock was utilized all the time, and was a must for us! Only suggestion I would have is to buy some cheap ice cube trays: they provided plastic reusable ice cubes, but they didn't work to keep a drink ice cold. When they say 'pack light' they mean it - everything else is there! Personnel: The manager, Midge, was very helpful and has a great 'welcome packet'. They were able to confirm some additional questions I had, and do a pre-arrival grocery shop for us. Martin and Diana were the on-site caretakers and very lovely. They always seemed to pop in when you needed them to, and otherwise we had no idea they lived below us.

not too far from village where there are several food markets & eateries. loved the "hammock hut"! didnt like the sea grass. everyday we got a bubbler jug of drinking water. the main part of house was always hot, maybe thin out the trees between the houses to allow more airflow. patio & swinging bed got a great breeze. bedrooms were air conditioned, thankfully. loved to house colors & decor, very fun! would recommend this location but do need a car or golf cart.

Great place
We enjoyed our stay, but don't think I'd go again at the start of the rainy season. Waters were choppy several days - if you think the waters will be calm the next day, book that snorkeling experience! We missed our chance - not that that has anything to do with the property. Also of course, very hot and humid, the bedroom air conditioners could barely keep up. We did sleep with all the windows open a few nights, it was nice to hear the ocean. I loved sitting out at the end of the pier at the beginning and end of the day. It's like you have the entire Caribbean Sea to yourself - no cargo or cruise ships or airplanes with banners to mar the view, no stingrays or jellyfish to be careful of. Martin and Diana were great, do use their suggestions. Proximity to the adorable bowling alley and its food was key, along with walking to the little grocery store and of course the Maya Beach Bistro. Midge was great to work with ahead of time. Fully enjoyed our side trips to the Mayan ruins in the south and the Jaguar Preserve. Mosquitos not half as bad as I thought they would be, at least at the house.
