La Vida Casita - Cozy beachfront bungalow steps from the beach.
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.

Nice secluded slice of beach!Absolutely loved the pool on the deck, which was bigger than it seems in the pictures! We visited during the first week of March, with winds coming in from the NE, so the beach wasn’t nice to swim in. Tons of seaweed washed up on the beach, and the water was super warm and very brown so you couldn’t see the bottom. I imagine it clears up when the winds come from a different direction, but we didn’t hangout much at the beach much during our stay. Saw some cool birds, lots of pelicans, and watch out for coatis on the road in!The place had everything we needed, A/C, fans, nice shower, comfy bed, blender for pina coladas! The palapa at the end of the dock was often windy but super nice to lounge on the hammock and feel the warm breeze. The casita is located about 20min north of Placencia, which was nice and quiet. Lots of delicious food options within 10-20 minutes. We loved the breakfast at Maya Beach Resort, so delicious.

What a great little spot to stay. The house was furnished nicely and super clean. The plunge pool is also nice to have and clean. Unfortunately the seaweed was too bad to get in the ocean, but the view was worth it. Privacy isn’t an issue. We will be back.

Beautiful Property
My wife and I spent a few days at La Vida and loved every bit of our stay. We were recovering after a week with a group of 12 at another property in the area. The home is in a quiet and beautiful area. We rode the beach bikes everyday down to grab dinner. They were very accommodating and easy to work with when our travel plans changed a bit.

Warm Hospitality, Perfect House, Beautiful Beach
This property will not disappoint! The casita and grounds are even more beautiful in person, and Dane and Kellie are a great resource—your personal concierges to the Caribbean. The casita is only a short drive from Placencia Village in one direction and Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary in the other. We had a fantastic time eating at nearby restaurants, catching permit and bonefish, hiking in the jungle, swimming under waterfalls... This is the perfect location for a Belize adventure!

Absolute paradise!
La Vida Belize is an incredible property and is just as beautiful in person as it is in the pictures. Waking up every morning to the sunrise over the Caribbean right outside the front door was like a dream. Brad and Lucas were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to ensure we were having the best vacation possible. The location is about 30 minutes from Placencia Village, but we still went there frequently. It is very close to some great spots in Maya Beach. I would highly recommend this property, we can’t wait to visit again someday!

Perfection!
This place is exactly as it is pictured! If you are considering booking, quit thinking about it and do it! You won't regret it. We loved everything about the Casita and the grounds. My favorite spot was floating in the pool with a view of the beach. We also enjoyed evenings on the dock. It was so peaceful and relaxing, we did not want to leave. Lucas is an amazing host. He always took time to visit with us and answer any questions we had. I can't wait to go again.

Peaceful beach retreat!
We had a wonderful stay, just wish it was for longer. Lucas was there to great us and we saw him throughout our stay. He gave us recommendations on restaurants and places to explore. The pool was amazing to cool off and relax in. We had a rental car and recommend that over a golf cart to get down to Placencia. It is not down by the hustle and bustle. It was nice to be able to wake up to and come back to a quiet place after the days of exploring. There is a pier with loungers and chairs, which I believe is not shown in the listing and must be newer. Would absolutely stay here again!

Exceeded all expectations...
Incredible property in a quieter part of the "isthmus." Excellent view. The shaded dock was lovely place to drink my morning coffee, take in the view and unwind.
There's a two-burner cooktop, a toaster oven, a microwave, etc., so grabbing some market essentials and eating in was a breeze.
The Casita is a short drive to many excursions, restaurants, and attractions. It's well-maintained by Lucas, Verdon, etc., and the communication was easy. I wish there was a "required to-do" list upon check out so I could meet expectations, but I did my best.
The folks staying in the larger house were lovely as well, so I definitely lucked out in that regard.
I have already recommended this property to my friends and co-workers. AND I will definitely be back.

Great property! This particular week, the larger house on the property was empty, including at least the next 3 houses on either side! The sand in front is great, albeit a little hard due to rains, and I'm not sure how often, but the property manager even kept it raked several days! The chairs down under the palm tree were great, and they were still just within range of the casita's WiFi. Bed inside was very comfortable; kitchen was great, had everything needed. Hot shower; supplied shampoo, conditioner, and body wash; bug spray & sunscreen - very appreciated! If you're planning on going all the way to the village/bottom of peninsula, a rental car is probably better than a golfcart/bicycle, as it will take around 25-30 minutes by car, given the road you can only drive around 25-30 mph - and be on the lookout for the pedestrian bumps/crosswalks as they can sometimes come out of nowhere! Great location, quiet, away from all noise. The dock was also great to have - a school of fish stayed under almost every time I checked. For this time of year, the Sargassum (kelp) seemed to always roll in onto the beach around 2-3pm, but in the morning, tides would clear it. Given the time of the year is start of rainy season (even though it was clear my entire week), it seemed like many many restaurants were closed temporarily, even some of the resorts, so food were a bit hard to find. Publics grocery store is great & close!Was a wonderful trip and will love to come back again!

Cute casita. But unaware others would be renting on site at the same time.
Check in fairly easy. The property manager did not show up when we arrived for check in, but that’s a non issue as was easy to get inside the casita. What we were confused with was who all the people in the larger home on the property were, we were not informed or read anywhere in the listing that this was a possibility, or mention of another home on the property. Although the pictures show another home, that can be deceiving, and I think should be clear and clarified for those looking for privacy.
The handbook in the house says not to drink any water, so I reached out for clarification and was told that the cold water in the kitchen faucet is drinkable. Maybe an update to that portion would be helpful, as well as where the bicycles, snorkel gear, etc is for use. This could avoid multiple messaging back and forth of questions when we would like to be in and out and not need to bother anyone. (Only offering as a suggestion)
The area of the casita is as described, we had many back and forth outings with our rental car, and a good beach session at the house.

Wonderful 40th anniversary stay!
What a wonderful gem! ! My husband and I found La Viva Belize on VRBO in 2021 but had to cancel in 2022 due to COVID. We rescheduled for 2023 and it a was 8 days of utter bliss! Imagine waking up on a wonderfully comfortable bed and sipping french press coffee on the verandah while watching the sun rise over the water. After a fresh fruit and omlet breakfast made in our well outfitted kitchen we either wandered to the hammock on the beach or floating in the pool on lounge chairs. We loved the quiet! The pool is shared with a 2 bdrm cottage. We got on great with our neighbours when we happened to cross paths. Occassional we'd go out on the pier but the "Easter winds" were starting and the sheltered pool was more to our liking. Cocktails appeared around 10 a.m. and around 12:30 we'd start talking about lunch. We rented a car in Belize City which was helpful in accessing restaurants 5-25 minutes away. Our favorite lunch spots were Jaguar Bowling Lanes for great pizza, Malula Bar & , Grill, a beachside pub and the Green Parrot. We'd either pick up food for dinner or venture out again in the evening to the Green Parrot or Habenaros Mexican Cafe & Bar with great sunsets! Brad and Luke were great and very responsive to any questions. Highly recommend this comfortable, spotless Casita on the beach for two!

UnBelizeable!
The location is terrific. Just far enough away from the business of the peninsula and close enough to easily travel to Placencia, or go north to Hopkins and the Maya Adventure Park. Since we were the only ones on the property it felt like our own private resort. I especially enjoyed the pier and hammocking under the palm trees. The kayak takes on water, as Lucas said, but as a paddle instructor I say it should not be taken out. He provided a new paddleboard, which is fun in calmer waters. We met the neighbors, who were willing to loan our their kayaks. One of those took on water as well, making it difficult to paddle after an hour out. Please be aware of the wind and current, which will drift you quickly down the shoreline if you are not paying attention. Only one working PFD(life jacket) is available- fyi. I would like to see more added for safety. Everything else was functioning and clean. I'd definitely come back in a heartbeat! Only down side to our trip was the biting sand flies, who aren't seen and then later on spots appear on your skin. We learned later from a local that they come out more in the golden hours (morning and evening). She also said " When you come to Belize you get two stamps...One in your passport and one on your body!"
The drinking water is only from the kitchen faucet when it's turned all the way to the left. This was different than the instructions given. Also, the Hungry Gecko in Maya Beach is no longer in business. These need to be updated in the book at the house.
Overall it was funtastic and better than expected!
