Edwin and family were very sweet and attentive as needed. Great layout for the house and really enjoyed the large covered outdoor area. The outdoor shower off the master bedroom was thoroughly enjoyed after a long day on and in the water. For those wishing to kick back and relax, Hummingbird is a place you will enjoy just a very short boat ride from Placencia pier.

The caretaker and his family were lovely! The property is beautiful, but could use some deep cleaning (dirty light switches, grimy doors where people’s hands have been). We saw some bugs, which is to be expected in a home that is always open to the outdoors. Amazing location.

Our stay at this stunning waterfront home in Belize was absolutely unforgettable! The house itself is a dream—spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly situated right on the water with breathtaking views. Every sunset felt like a postcard moment. Thank you for renting it to us Tom! What truly made the experience exceptional was the incredible family who looked after us. They went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and cared for, offering local tips, arranging activities, and making us feel like part of their community. Their warmth and hospitality turned a great vacation into something truly special.If you’re looking for a serene escape with world-class service and genuine Belizean charm, this is the place to be. We can’t wait to return!

This was a great place! Tom was very responsive when I had a question. Edwin, the property manager, and his family were delightful and he always responded quickly when we needed a ride.

Perfect Paradise

The house is as advertised, large, spacious and beautiful. It is on Placencia Caye but the caretaker, Edwin, is always available to take you to the main pier. The house is fun with some quirky features like the outdoor shower off the master bedroom. All in all it’s terrific and we will stay here again.

Nothing Ho-hum About Hummingbird House

From the moment we were greeted at the municipal pier by Edwin & his wife, until we said our goodbyes, our entire stay was wonderful! The house is gorgeous with huge, expansive views, both front and back, of water, boats, and the village. We loved floating, swimming, and paddleboarding off the dock, where we saw tons of ocean life! The entire stay was like a dream, and Edwin & family helped us in every way to enjoy our stay in Placencia.

Fantastic setting, Edwin and family were great hosts and always available, even cooked the fish we bought from the fisherman stand in Placencia. Kids loved the dogs and cats. Placencia is full of good restaurants, the daily boat trip to the village makes the day enjoyable, did a few trips - Silk Caye, Mayan World of adventures. Wish we could have stayed longer!

This was our first time to Belize. We feel so lucky to have chosen Placencia, and more specifically, the Hummingbird House, as our destination. The house is amazing and as amazing as described. So relaxing and beautiful! The caretaker (Edwin) and his family made this an even more amazing experience for us! He is kind, responsive, positive, knowledgeable, and went beyond the call of duty to make this a great experience for all. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about them, the Hummingbird House, and the activities Edwin recommended!

Hummingbird House Getaway

Perfect for us! Hummingbird is off the mainland, so a bit more private but still very convenient given the availability of Edwin to take you to wherever/whenever. Loved the house itself. Had everything we needed for a comfortable/relaxing stay. Very comfortable both inside and out. The dock and the deck were our favorite places to hang. Swimming off the dock was the best. Enjoyed the kayaks and the sup board. Hated to leave!

My family absolutely loved this property. The kids first thing upon arriving was to video the whole house and brag about how cool it was. We enjoyed our time at Hummingbird house so much. The breezes thru the house made the stay breathtaking. Especially since we have been used to ac and the house didnt have it. But it didnt matter because the breeze was perfect.
