Cottage holiday rentals in Central America

Very good amenities at the house and excellent communication

Wow, this place is so incredible! You're looking around, trying to choose between similar looking AirBnb's, and sometimes you just get super lucky. This place is an absolute gem! Beautiful and private surroundings doesn't quite capture it--it's on its own nature preserve with walking trails, a swimming pool, and a plethora of gorgeous plants and trees. We saw so many exotic birds just from the spacious balcony, which also has commanding views all the way to the ocean, as well as a hot tub! And the hosts were very thoughtful and went the extra mile--incredibly nice and considerate folks. This place is such a great find--we were so sad to leave. Thanks so much for the amazing stay!

Beautiful nested place in the mountains with a magnificent lake Arenal view. Unfortunately, we had terrible rainy weather and could not really do much but the place was perfect even when we lost power. Highly recommend and Ericka was always ready to help! Great hosting and stay!!!

This property was spectacular ! The details of the house made our stay an experience . John was always available to answer our questions. The view from the terrace was amazing and very calming, the house had everything that we needed and more. I can’t wait to go back and recharge my soul. Fully recommended!

Be ready to fall in love—with the owner Robert, his excellent caretaker Maria (who gave us free fresh picked bananas) and mainly with exquisite property, better than pictured, in the most fantastic location. As a veteran AirBnB owner in Aruba we can say it sets the top standard with everything you would want in a prime location. Beautiful experience!

They were very kind, we felt right at home. Everything was very clean, the air conditioning works well, the area is very quiet and safe, the car parking is at the same door, the pool and the jacuzzi is great. There are many little birds that pass by the garden. The tour with Lau and Justin was great, one of the best we've ever done on the trip. Thank you very much for everything Highly recommended!

We had an excellent time! The hosts were very helpful in booking local activities. We’d definitely stay here again.

WOW! This place is the best air b and b we have ever stayed at. Everything was perfect. Literally everything. The view is breathtakingly gorgeous. We had our morning coffee in the deck every morning listening to birds and howler monkeys. The pool is divine, and the bed is so comfy. The care takers live on site and are so responsive to every need you may have, and they are wonderful people. We had fun practicing our Spanish with Giselle. Some tips: make sure you rent an ATV or 4 wheel drive to get up the hill. It’s not bad at all, but I am super glad we had 4 wheel drive. At least a vehicle with good clearance is all that’s needed. It was so peaceful and perfect! Thank you for a wonderful stay! If we could give it 100 stars we would. ✨ ⭐️

Everything was amazing!! Diane and Neal were super friendly and helpful with great recommendations. The pool was very refreshing and had an amazing view of Lago Arenal. Definitely one of the nicest places we've stayed!! Highly recommended!

Very nice recommended place and José very attentive thank you for everything

Marissa was a great host. She took care of all our needs and more! She helped us with a lagoon boat tour, private taxi to/from Cancun, restaurant recommendations, and more! We had a great time and would highly recommend this place (and Marissa as host) to anyone to expereince a wonderful stay in Bacalar!

Great place to stay! Awesome yard behind the house!

The Álvaro hut is small but quite comfortable, clean and with a well-equipped kitchen. It rained a lot and it was cold when we arrived, but there was a heater that worked very well. It is located in a location with access in less than 30 minutes to the Poás Volcano. Álvaro was super attentive and even took us some items at 6:30 in the morning that we needed to make breakfast.

Our stay at Alma Del Rio was wonderful. Hadas and her staff were so welcoming and communicative, we felt right at home. The house was well stocked with everything we needed, including binoculars for bird watching out the top level screened living room. They booked tours for us that included pick up right from the house. We had a great experience getting to Tikal and back with the tour company they use. The border crossing was easy and our driver was waiting for us right on the other side. The house is a ways from town, so I would recommend getting a few things for the fridge if you don’t want to get taxis into San Ignacio or Santa Elena every day. The property is extremely eco friendly and water conscious. We appreciated that! Hadas even texted us when she spotted howler monkeys across the river so we could come down and see. Massages with Dorris were fantastic. We loved Alma Del Rio and hope to visit again! 💚💚💚

We spent just a few days and now wish we had stayed longer. Wilbur’s place was simply wonderful. Set right on the lake and surrounded by a beautiful garden. Well situated on the island with easy access to many of the highlights. Simple, clean and comfortable with a great bathroom. Would recommend for a relaxed and peaceful stay.

I will definitely be back!! I love this place and I felt a lot of peace and privacy , it is in a very exclusive area, full of nature and away from the hustle and bustle.. the communication with Dominique was very fluid and always attentive, I have nothing but thanks

I truly enjoyed my stay here. Just the perfect getaway. The hot water was a pleasant surprise. Sheree was very responsive and the groundsman was absolutely friendly and inviting. The river was perfect and the space was magical.

My husband and I fully enjoyed our stay at Simone's cabana. Candace Feldman manages these properties exceptionally well. She ensured we were booked for the flight from Belize city to Placencia and ensured we were met by her airport concierge. Candace was able to pick us up at the Placencia airport, ensuring we were comfortably checked in. She was always on hand to assist and made good recommendations from activities we were interested in pursuing to good places to eat. The beachfront cabana met all our needs. The bed was very comfortable. The shower was excellent. Falling asleep to the sound of waves was a bonus. The majority of the time there was always a pleasant breeze that was comfortable at night that we never had to use the AC

What a fabulous stay at this Airbnb. The best part though were the wonderful hosts Stacey and Clem and the dining experiences at their restaurant Arboloco. Don’t miss dining at the #1 rated restaurant in Bocas (Trip Advisor). The Airbnb is exactly as described and was comfortable with all the amenities needed. It is located amongst a jungle environment and we enjoyed listening to an amazing chorus of birds each morning. That and a momma sloth with her baby rounded out this spectacular stay. Thanks Stacey and Clem, you are awesome!!

Mi Casa es Su Casa offers a great combination of privacy in a beautiful setting and access to local amenities. We easily popped into Bijagua to a grocery or restaurant, and quickly returned to the quiet of our accommodations. We particularly enjoyed eating or lounging on the porch. Access to the nearby (walkable) Casitas Tenorio offered optional breakfast plus an open-air view of the forest and many bird species where we spotted our first Toucan and MotMot. Jeffrey and Nana as well as other staff were warm, friendly, and supportive during our stay. Tons of well-developed information books on area flora, fauna, and attractions. Jeffrey made reservations for us at area activities (highly recommend the nearby Hanging Bridges). Accommodations worked well for our family of 5, especially having two bathrooms. It rained quite a bit, but that's what makes it a rainforest. Note that rainfall on the roof at night could be distracting. Overall, we will remember our visit here fondly.

A sweet and spacious cottage on a beautiful property, with a pool outside the front steps, and a short walk from the beach. David went above and beyond accomodating us with an early check in and late check out, personally made sure our place was in good shape and gave local recommendations. We are very fortunate to have spent our Christmas there! Thanks so much David!

This is the most possible beachfront a person can get! The beach is literally your front yard! Beautiful, well equipped, clean air b n b. Belizean people are so nice!!! The food is great, there are tons of grocery stores in addition to restaurants, and the ice cream at Chillpoint is amazing as is the gelato at Tutti Frutti in the village! We highly recommend renting a golf cart to get around the island, as is a half hour golf cart ride to get into The Village. Flowers Rental arranged a taxi to pick us up at the placencia airport at our request and the air b n b is about an 8-10 min. car ride from there. Captain Jack’s, who we rented our golf cart from, had our golf cart dropped off and waiting for us at our air b n b by the time we arrived. We took the kayaks across to False Cay, the island you can see straight ahead from your front door, and it was a 20-30 min. paddle where we did some snorkeling. We borrowed snorkel gear from the hotel next door Azure Del Mar.

We found this Little Cottage to be a wonderful place of respite. A tranquil, relaxing setting was exactly what we needed and we were so grateful to have found it. A few maintenance issues were quickly resolved thanks to communicative host. Conroy was a great help as well and we did a bit of food shopping nearby which allowed us to prepare simple meals. The water is rather deep so it’s important to watch the tides and be confident in one’s swimming abilities. WiFi was superb and the shady hammock, covered porch, and outdoor seating allowed us to spend most of our time outside even when it rained.

We loved Sankalpa ♥️ Deborah has created a beautiful space that works with the land rather than against it. The views are stunning and the cottage is LOVELY. This is such a special space. 🙌🏽 We really appreciated the little touches like locally sourced Blue Mountain coffee, the selection of books by Caribbean authors and the eco-friendly products. We will definitely be back at Sankalpa and will be recommending it to others.
