Welcome to Villa Jammin' Gecko, an exquisite oceanfront estate nestled among tropical trees and vibrant gardens in the heart of Maya Beach, Placencia. Villa Jammin’ Gecko is a 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom custom-built vacation home occupying a stretch of sandy shore along the calm Caribbean Sea.

Leave all your cares behind because from the moment you enter the gates of this meticulously manicured property you will be engulfed in an aura of tranquility and luxury. Entering the villa, you will step into a spacious foyer with soaring ceilings and an eye-catching staircase. Tastefully decorated with pieces of local art and custom-built Belizean hardwood furniture, this home strikes the right balance between homey and haute.

Proceeding from the foyer you’ll find the first three private bedrooms located on the ground level. Each of the large bedrooms are well furnished with custom local furniture, high quality linens, a flat screen TV and accompanied by its own en-suite bathroom, ensuring the utmost privacy and comfort for each guest. The first floor also boasts a large game room overlooking the ocean, complete with a wet bar, pool table and large flat screen TV. This area serves as the perfect space for entertainment as a sliding glass door seamlessly connects you to the large, covered patio, your private pool, and a cozy thatched palapa.

Inspired by the easy and breezy outdoor living habits of the tropics, the palapa is designed to be your open-air common area. Equipped with comfortable seating and hammocks, it is the ideal spot to relax and unwind. Stretch out on a lounge chair and bask on the sundeck or splash into the pool for a game of volleyball. The beach is your backyard! Enjoy the peace and solitude of your private oasis which will seem to stretch across the tepid and tranquil water all the way to the horizon.

Back indoors, ascend the grand spiral staircase to the second floor, where you’ll enter the heart of the villa - a large open kitchen, dining and living area with a generous covered patio overlooking the pool and beach. This amazingly well-appointed space is where your group will gather most of the time when you’re not outdoors. Natural light fills this space through clear glass windows, and the decor is a harmonious blend of modern beach elegance and local charm. The living area is furnished with comfortable, contemporary sofas and chairs centered around a stylish, hand carved coffee table made from local Belizean wood. The dining area features a beautiful hand-carved wood table with seating for ten, where you can enjoy gourmet meals made by your own private chef.

Adjacent to the dining area, you’ll find the large, fully equipped, gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances, granite countertops, and an island breakfast bar. Just off the dining area is yet another open-air patio and outdoor dining area. The patio houses a stainless-steel gas grill and boasts amazing views of the Maya Mountains and magical sunsets.

Also on this level is a sizeable junior suite, with its own private covered patio overlooking the pool and ocean. The room is furnished with local handmade furniture and décor, high-quality linens and flat screen TV. With the attached ensuite bath, this suite is perfect for a couple wanting more privacy.

Ascend to the top floor, where you’ll discover the grand primary suite. This room epitomizes luxury and comfort with a king-size bed, locally designed custom furniture, resort-quality linens, and a flat-screen TV. The en-suite bath is a true indulgence, featuring an oversized jetted tub and a walk-in shower with an amazing view of the beach and ocean. Expansive patios on this level offer sweeping views of the ocean, lagoon, and mountains, completing this lavish suite.

Your stay at the villa includes the dedicated services of a team of seasoned professionals. Our villa boasts a long-standing and expertly trained onsite staff, each with years of devoted service. From the skill of our personal chefs to the daily housekeeping and laundry service, our goal is to make your vacation effortless so you can simply savor every moment of your well-deserved escape.

When you’re not enjoying the property, take the complimentary golf cart and explore the nearby charming restaurants and lively bars, immersing yourself in the local flavor. Dive into all Belize has to offer by coordinating adventure tours and excursions, all seamlessly arranged by your dedicated personal concierge. We aim to provide a comprehensive and exceptional vacation experience, ensuring your time here is nothing short of extraordinary.

Jammin’ Gecko is a certified Gold Standard Property by the Belize Tourism Board and managed by Gecko Vacation Rentals – a highly respected vacation rental company with a long-proven track record that manages numerous exclusive private islands and luxury waterfront villas in Placencia, Belize.
