La Vida Casita, a delightful beachfront cabana, sits just steps from the Caribbean Sea on the Placencia Peninsula. This cozy casita is an ideal escape for friends or romantic couples with a taste for adventure. We offer a perfect balance between easy access to Placencia Village and Maya Beach via a short golf cart or car ride while maintaining a serene distance from the bustling tourist spots, ensuring your private beach oasis awaits. The 450-square-foot casita is expertly crafted from Belizean hardwoods sourced from the Maya Mountains, located 20 miles west of our property. Innovative design features have been seamlessly integrated to enhance indoor and outdoor living experience. A fully furnished kitchenette awaits those wanting to create authentic Belizean dishes. The casita comfortably accommodates two guests with a queen bed, and a handcrafted futon can sleep a third person. For added comfort, air conditioning is available for those times when the trade winds may not keep you cool. With the Caribbean Sea just outside your French doors, your stay here promises a private and serene sanctuary, making your Belize trip truly exceptional. At La Vida Casita, we aim to ensure your experience meets your expectations. We provide complimentary access to a tandem kayak and bicycles. Right off our beach, you'll find impressive coral heads perfect for honing your snorkeling skills before venturing to the Cayes. Fishing enthusiasts will be delighted to find snapper, snook, jacks, grunts, and Spanish mackerel steps away from the front door, while tarpon and other species can be found across the road in the lagoon. There is a 75-foot pier right off the beach for fishing, swimming, snorkeling, or just soaking up the Caribbean sun. Our location is conveniently positioned, a brief 5-minute drive north of Maya Beach and just 30 minutes north of Placencia Village. Many tour operators offer complimentary pick-up and drop-off services at La Vida. We highly recommend our guests consider renting a car to explore the region or a golf cart for convenient exploration of the peninsula. Located in a neighborhood of private residences. A rental car is best for transportation. Golf carts are another option. Rental includes the entire Casita and access to the Casita's pool, beach, and pier. Please note: The beach consists of two lots and a pier. They are shared with our guests staying at the other rentals on the property. It is large enough for all to have their own private space. If you need extra space, the Casita can be booked alongside our Casa (sleeps up to 6) and/or Studio (sleeps 2), accommodating up to eleven guests for an even more memorable stay.

February 2025 5.00Beautiful beach location. Simple clean room with everything necessary. Nice plunge pool

February 2025 5.00Loved this place. What you see in the pictures is what you get. Very charming, clean, comfortable, with beautiful sunrises. Having a car is a MUST. It’s about 30 minutes outside of Placencia and while there are some restaurants and stores on the way to town, it’s all driving distance. Brad was very responsive to any questions we had and was able to work with us to extend our stay an extra night.

January 2025 4.00Beautiful location. Very private and calm environment. It rained quite frequently during our stay and we loved having the option to sit on the porch and watch, while staying dry. Great place for a family, the baby accommodations were appreciated. By car we were a very reasonable distance from multiple attractions (Placencia, Hopkins, Butterfly Farm, Jaguar Sanctuary).

January 2025 5.00The casita, it's plunge pool, and the access to the private beach make for a fantastic - feels like it's away from everything - vacation spot. The nearby restaurants are affordable, welcoming, and delicious. The drive to slight further flung sites is easy once you get the rhythm of driving in Belize. My family is already talking about future trips after our stay with Brad.
