3 Story Oceanfront Luxury Villa 5 Bedroom w/ Pool

Welcome to Villa Jammin' Gecko! A 5-bedroom, 7-bathroom oceanfront estate with private chef included.

Nestled among tropical trees and vibrant gardens in the heart of Maya Beach, Placencia, Villa Jammin' Gecko is a custom-built, 3-story beachfront retreat where luxury and laid-back Caribbean living meet in perfect harmony. Soaring ceilings, an eye-catching grand staircase, and custom-built Belizean hardwood furniture set the tone — this home strikes exactly the right balance between homey and haute.

The ground floor features three spacious bedrooms, each with custom local furnishings, high-quality linens, a flat-screen TV, and a private en-suite bathroom. The showstopper on this level is the oceanfront game room — complete with a pool table, wet bar, and large flat-screen TV — opening directly onto a covered patio, private pool, and thatched palapa with hammocks and seating. The pool features a volleyball net for some friendly competition.

The second floor is the heart of the villa — a bright open kitchen, dining, and living area with a covered ocean-view patio. The hand-carved dining table seats ten, perfect for chef-prepared meals. The gourmet kitchen features high-end appliances, granite countertops, and a breakfast bar. An additional open-air patio with a gas grill offers sweeping views of the Maya Mountains and stunning Caribbean sunsets. Also on this level is a spacious junior suite with its own private covered patio overlooking the pool and ocean.

The top floor is reserved for the crown jewel: the grand primary suite with a king bed, resort-quality linens, and a luxurious en-suite featuring an oversized jetted tub and walk-in shower with unobstructed ocean views. Expansive patios deliver sweeping panoramas of the ocean, lagoon, and Maya Mountains.
Villa Jammin' Gecko is a certified Gold Standard Property by the Belize Tourism Board and managed by Gecko Vacation Rentals.

**CHEF SERVICE**
Your stay includes complimentary private chef service for stays of 4 nights or more — one full chef day for every two nights stayed. Each chef day includes 3 meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) prepared fresh for your group. For example: a 6-night stay includes 3 chef days; an 8-night stay includes 4 chef days. You will only need to reimburse the chef directly for the cost of groceries. Nothing is marked up, and the chef will provide you with an invoice, payment instructions, and copies of all receipts. Food costs typically run $45–$50 per person per day based on the preset menu. Need the chef more often? Additional chef days can be added for $125 per day.

Grocery stocking service is also included with your stay. There is a provisions list of basic groceries, snack items and beverages you can fill out if you wish to have those items stocked at the house when you arrive. The chef will purchase your groceries, and you only reimburse the items bought.

(+) Want to take it a step further? Enhance your chef service with our All-Inclusive Food Package for $75 per person per chef service day. The package covers all 3 meals, a fruit bowl, limited non-alcoholic beverages, and one lobster meal (in season) — with no additional grocery reimbursement required. Alcohol packages are also available. Ask our team for full details when booking.

**ABOUT PLACENCIA**
Placencia, located in Southern Belize, is one of the country's most beloved destinations — and for good reason. Situated on a stunning 16-mile-long peninsula flanked by the Caribbean Sea on one side and a serene lagoon on the other, Placencia offers the perfect blend of laid-back Caribbean charm and easy access to adventure. Unlike the busier island destinations to the north, Placencia is relaxed, uncrowded, and refreshingly authentic. From here, you're perfectly positioned to explore ancient Mayan ruins, hidden waterfalls, zip lines, cave tubing, world-class snorkeling, and some of the best sportfishing in Central America. Back on the peninsula, you'll find great restaurants, local shops, beachside bars, and the famous Placencia sidewalk. It is the perfect place for an amazing Caribbean vacation!
