"The perfect Belizean getaway! This home is beautifully stocked with everything you need for a comfortable stay near Placencia. The owner’s communication was excellent, and Leo, the property manager, and his staff went above and beyond—whether it was arranging tours or helping us with bikes, they were always there to assist. I highly recommend this property for anyone visiting the area!"

"The property is absolutely gorgeous and has everything to offer. The description and pictures don’t do it justice. The staff was amazing and catered to our every need. The chef was top notch and kept our bellies full with great food. We highly recommend booking this property, especially when looking to be spoiled!"

"The Starfish property underpromises and overdelivers. The landscape is stunning, designed for both relaxation and entertainment, with plenty of seating areas throughout the yard. We spent mornings and evenings on the dock, covered by the palapa during tropical showers, and swimming straight off the ladder where we saw tons of fish, plus a dolphin and even a manatee.The house is in a great location—just a 10–15 minute walk to the village. Even with a car, we often walked to enjoy the views. Inside, it had everything we needed with plenty of space to relax.The owner, Gail, was responsive and informative from the start, and the caretakers, Luisa and her family, live next door and do a fantastic job. Luisa went above and beyond: she picked us up at the airport as a courtesy, offered to take us to the market and pick up our rental car (we declined since the company was already arranging pickup), and even offered a ride back to the airport at the end. On a hot afternoon, they surprised us with fresh coconuts harvested right on the property.We experienced only a couple of brief power outages, but everything was restored quickly. The location is also a huge plus: while Placencia was struggling with sargassum seaweed during our stay, Starfish’s geography meant we could still fully enjoy the water.We will definitely be back—Starfish is the perfect space to unwind, recharge, or even get some work done."

"This is our second consecutive summer staying at this property, and we absolutely love it. It's the ideal hotel for anyone wanting to feel truly connected to Placencia village life. We enjoy our morning routine of jogging, then picking up fresh fruits and vegetables from the local markets—all just a five-minute walk away. The numerous nearby restaurants are also a huge plus. The staff consistently provides exceptional service, with Kendra at the front desk being particularly outstanding. When I accidentally left my passport in our room, she immediately took charge of the situation. She arranged for a driver who was already heading to Belize to turn around, retrieve my passport, and deliver it to me in Belize City. We're already planning to return next summer."

"Quiet, clean comfortable room. Nice location. Everyone was welcoming and helpful."

"Great staff!"

"Without a doubt the best vacation we’ve ever had. 8 days in paradise with the friendliest staff, and amazing food. We’re already planning our return next summer. Shout out to Franklin, JR and the rest of the crew! Brian was a great snorkeling guide, Marion took us on the Monkey River cruise, and we went sailing to Fisherman’s Island with Rasta. An unforgettable trip!"
