This is a beautiful place right on the beach. Unfortunately the noise from the main road is at times loud/ obtrusive. Martin was fantastic at organizing snorkel & dive trips. Paddle boarding/kayaking over to the island amazing as we saw manatee & high leaping dolphins

It was, “OK”
Very old building. No air conditioning except for bedrooms, which was fine for sleeping but otherwise, we were quite miserable. No air movement in the house so very hot and muggy. Also, they list that they have a washer, so I brought very little clothes thinking I could wash and rewear, but nope. No washer. The caretakers are pleasant and response to questions or issues, (and I don’t know exactly what their roles are), however, they told us they would take our trash out daily and rake the beach daily and that didn’t happen. Not to mention that you need to throw your used toilet paper in the trash, not the toilet, and little bugs were coming to the trash in the kitchen. And, lots of seaweed would wash up on shore and it stunk. Would also have liked them to sweep the stairs to the decks as well as the decks, on a daily basis, due to sand tracking. There was a small foot bath at the bottom of the stairs, but that wasn’t changed for up to 3 days and it was full of sand and seaweed. Not exactly able to clean our feet in it prior to walking on the decks or in the house. I would NOT recommend this establishment.

Our first family vacation out of the States
Our trip was awesome. When we arrived we met Martin and his wife who are the caretakers of the property. They helped us navigate the area and even set up a couple of the trips that we took. The house was super easy to find. It was stocked with everything we needed to have a great time. I loved sitting on the water and have my coffee in the morning. We also used the kayaks and paddle boards a few times. While there, we kayaked to island across from house, we booked an all day fishing excursion, we shopped, we snorkeled, and we went on guided trip to the Mayan ruins. I would highly recommend Belize and this rental.

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.

Beautiful and convenient
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.

A Wonderful Experience
We stayed in Casa Beya for an extended period (June-July 2021) and my family of four (kids 8 and 11) had a fantastic experience. The house, village, country etc... were all exactly as described. We completely fell in love with everything Placencia and Maya Beach has to offer. We would highly recommend this property for anyone looking to unplug and relax!
