About this property

Oceanfront Villa | Private Pool & Dock

Your private Caribbean escape for families, friends and groups.

Villa Incommunicada is a spacious 6-bedroom, 5-bath oceanfront villa for up to 16 guests, just 3.5 miles south of San Pedro on Ambergris Caye. With three separate living areas and three kitchens, the villa gives larger groups plenty of room to vacation together while still having space to spread out.

Spend your days around the private pool, relax with Caribbean views, enjoy sunset drinks from the rooftop deck or head down the private dock for morning coffee and convenient boat pickups for island adventures.

The villa is designed for groups who want more than simply a place to sleep. Cora can help coordinate the details of your stay, including island transportation, golf carts, groceries, restaurant reservations, excursions, massages and private chef services. Johnny, an island native, licensed tour guide and PADI-certified dive instructor, can help arrange snorkeling, diving, fishing and unforgettable days on the water.

Back at the villa, multiple gathering spaces make it easy for everyone to spend time together without feeling crowded. Whether you're planning a family vacation, milestone celebration, friends' getaway or simply want an incredible home base for exploring Belize, Villa Incommunicada gives you space, privacy and local support throughout your stay.

Good to know: Villa Incommunicada sits directly on the Caribbean with a seawall, natural mangroves and private dock rather than a traditional sandy swimming beach. Like coastal areas throughout Belize and the Caribbean, the shoreline can occasionally be affected by seasonal sargassum. During heavier events, it may collect around the mangroves until changing winds, tides and waves naturally move it out. Guests do not have direct access to the washer and dryer; convenient wash, dry and fold service is available through Jorge for $25 per load.

Great house for a Large Group

We enjoyed our stay very much. The house was large, clean and as described. We did a little cooking there and the house could use more kitchen supplies, other than that it was great. The pool area was wonderful. Staff was very helpful.

The villa is perfect for an extended family, with three separate living areas, all connected. Clean, roomy and comfortable, although the kitchen equipment could be more evenly distributed. It is quiet, the pool is sparkling, and a quick golf cart ride takes you to groceries. We enjoyed playing volleyball on our own sandy beachfront and found the pool area and expansive penthouse portico to be favourite gathering areas.Cora couldn't possibly be more accessible and knowledgeable, and Jorge is simply amazing--everywhere all the time, quietly maintaining the property, with immediate response to any requests.The one thing that firmly holds the property from a 5-star rating is the problem with the sea grass. This is not unique to the Villa, it is an issue common to Ambergris; however, some effort to clean up the accumulation on the beach, along with the garbage it collects, would improve the atmosphere completely. The lovely long dock, ending in a peaceful sitting area, would be infinitely more appealing if one did not have to walk past the odoriferous beach.Access to snorkelling is perfect and, for sea bird lovers, this location is a joy.Our family of 14 genuinely loved our time here and the happy memories it provided.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for choosing Villa Incommunicada for your family stay. We’re so glad to hear how much you enjoyed the layout of the home, the gathering spaces, and the time spent together—those are exactly the experiences we hope to create. We also truly appreciate your kind words about Cora and Jorge. They take great pride in caring for both the home and our guests, and it means a lot to see that recognized. Regarding the sea grass, you are absolutely right—this is a natural and seasonal occurrence throughout Ambergris Caye. While it can shift quickly, it is unfortunately outside of anyone’s control. We do make efforts to manage the beach as conditions allow, and appreciate your understanding that this is part of the island’s natural environment. The home does offer multiple kitchen spaces across the different levels, and we often find guests naturally gather and use one primary kitchen during their stay. We appreciate the feedback and will continue working to ensure everything is well distributed for convenience. We’re so happy your family created such wonderful memories here and would love to host you again in the future.

Great Villa for family and friends

We had an amazing stay at the villa. Cora was great and she made arrangements from Taxi pickup to dinner when we arrived. The house is so spacious and so much room to spread out. Outside, the pool is great and the volleyball court was used every day. You're right on the beach but it's really not a swimable beach, You can take the provided kayaks and go a bit further out and swim if you desire. This was not a problem as we arranged for snorkeling tours. It is really convenient to have boat tours that come and pick you up right at the dock.I would stay there again. Thank you so much.

Expected Better

Cora and Johnny were wonderful and always available to help us with any questions, excursions and suggestions. There should be a better explanation of handling bugs around the doors and pool. Listing should say no washer/dryer and that there is a charge for clean towels. One set of bath towels us not sufficient for a weeks stay. One bedroom clearly had mold on the wall. We very much enjoyed San Pedro and all of our experiences there and on the mainland.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Villa Incommunicada! We wanted to clear up any misunderstandings about the laundry and towel situation…yes we do charge per load for laundry as it pays for our caretakers time to do the laundry. He washes, drys and returns it folded. We do not charge for extra towels, nor do we only leave you one towel for a weeks stay. There are towels left in the bedroom/bathroom and additional towels in the hall closet. There are always additional towels beyond that available per request. Again we’re glad we could share our piece of paradise with you!

Family Rendezvous in Belize

We've stayed at many VRBOs over the years, and mostly all have been good. Our stay at Villa Incommunicado was hands down the best experience we have ever had. The communication with our host, Cora was unbelievable. She helped organize 4 excursions, a day sail for 15 (9 adults and 6 kiddos) fishing trips, snorkel trips, and our favorite, a hunter-gather fishing trip with a barbeque on a beach. it was an easy commute to town (San Pedro) and if we needed anything Jorge, was available to pick up whatever we needed. One thing we did not expect to take advantage of was Felipa the local chef, we ended up using her services for the majority of the trip. Her meals were fantastic, with basic local food that tasted amazing. The kids loved the place, aged 2-8 they basically lived in the pool. When it came time to leave Wyatt (4) declared he was going to stay for 18 more days, insisting his mother call the airline and change their flight, to be honest, we all felt the same way..

Great house for a large group!

The house was perfect for our stay! Cora, Johnny, and Jorge were extremely kind and helpful. It was clean and getting there was easy. It is maybe a 20-30 min golf cart ride to town so you are a bit away from everything, but with Johnny's excursions by boat we didn't mind being away. Booking Johnny's excursions was great because they were very accommodating with our changing schedule and subbing people in/out. Even though there wasn't much description of what the day was going to be like, each of the trips were the highlight of our day! We also LOVED the home cooked meals we booked. We had three for the week and they were all delicious. The only part that was difficult was the communication. Beforehand when emailing, it was not as responsive as I would have liked and there were some miscommunications on what activities were booked (half day snorkel vs. full day snorkel), however, everything worked out in the end. Also when getting there and chatting through WhatsApp the communication was much faster.

Jewel in Belize!

We were pleasantly surprised to see that Villa Incommunicada was in a clean and in pristine shape seeing how it is exposed to the humidity of the Caribbean constantly. All the bedrooms were ample sized and appreciated that the A/C units were new and were working. Getting picked up for our excursions on the private pier was so convenient and a huge benefit. Try gathering 9 people to drive in a golf cart to San Pedro then to hop on a boat. We saved at least half a day! What really made the Villa sparkle was Cora and her team. She had dinner of chicken and rice and beans ready for us. It was so nice to have a home cooked meal after a long day of travel. She also helped coordinate excursions with Johnny. Honestly, the excursions were the highlights of our stay. On one trip, our 10 yr old son catch fish which was then lunch prepared by Johnny on one of the calmest and sandiest beach around. Staying at the Villa as like staying at a resort but only better!

Great Belize Waterfront Vacation home

What really made this VRBO different and better than any we have stayed at was the levels of help, information 10 day Family vacation of 11 first timers saying in Belize. We used all 3 floors and had an amazing time. Top level suite is open concept Complete efficiency. Great bathroom shower, water pressure in shower was lower than other showers. Outside hang out area was great, lots of space for yoga, beautiful views, especially sunsets, comfortable furniture and a palapa to provide sun shade. You need to be comfortable with outside stairs that curve, views are well worth the effort. Mid level was most complete floor for smaller group. We used all 3 bedrooms, suite on this level was bright at sunrise, mainly used kitchen area 6 seat table for puzzles.. The inside living area was comfortable, outside area did not have furniture, views are beautiful. Main house level has 2 bedrooms, put early risers in suite since it gets bright at sunrise. Dining table is awesome! Set up for 10 we brought 1 chair in from outside table which easily fit our 11th person. We played lots of card games, the surface was so smooth we had to pay attention to catch our cards. 2 dinners brought in were amazing, kitchen adequate for our needs, we did use 2nd floor fridge for food/drink storage. Spent most of our time out back with the pool, pier, kayaks, volleyball area, a vacationers paradise. Cora, our host was great support! Johnny is an amazing dive master, snorkeling day was perfect.

Lovely spot for a big family

Plenty of space for our large extended family for everyone to gather together and relax on their own. Beautiful setting on the water, though of note it's not a wading beach - you can swim off the dock though! Nice pool to lounge around with comfy outdoor furniture and some shade, and the dock was an amazing spot to relax in the hammock or swing. The house is about a 20 minute ride to San Pedro town in golf cart. We had a few great meals from Felipa, the chef! There were a few discrepancies between the listing and our experience, including that we did not have access to washing machine and dryer (it is there but behind locked doors), and there is no dishwasher. The grill was also not cleaned and there was no lighter/matches available to use it. Additionally, the house manager requested that we check out by 10am (which we learned the night before, only when we asked), while check out time was listed as 11:30 on the listing. Along those lines, we did have some communication challenges with the house manager, for example asking for our flight details and grocery list even after we'd provided them and misunderstanding the # of people for our excursion. I also thought it was a little silly that we were charged for drinking water. It's not expensive ($2.50 per 5 gallon jug) and therefore seems like it should be included in the cost of a luxury rental, or noted that guests are expected to cover the cost. Overall great place, and we enjoyed Caye Ambergris!

Thank you for providing your feedback! We're thrilled that you enjoyed your overall stay and found our property spacious and relaxing. We understand the importance of transparency, and we apologize for any discrepancies between our listing and your experience. Regarding the laundry, it's located in the caretaker's residence, but he is happy to assist with laundry loads for guests, and this is communicated upfront. While the barbecue is kept clean on the inside, sometimes it can accumulate dust on the outside, but our caretaker is readily available to assist with lighting it. Regarding the drinking water, guests typically replenish it, and the water left by previous guests is available for use. We're sorry you felt that way about the communication with the host, as our previous reviews attest to her wonderful service. We will address any communication challenges with our house manager to ensure a smoother guest experience. Thank you again for choosing our property, and we look forward to hosting you again in the future!

Nice property in south part of San Pedro

This was our first visit to Belize and San Pedro on Ambergris Caye. We stayed at Villa Incommunicado from March 16, 2024, through March 23, 2024. The house was as advertised. We had a group of 13 and the house was comfortable with the right bed and bath configuration for our 3-family group. The pool was a little small, but still was a nice place to relax. The volleyball court was awesome, but we had to buy our own volleyball. The paddleboard was unusable, and the kayaks were worn. There are a number of items I think people should be aware of with Villa Incommunicado. First, there was no washer and dryer on property. Having the onsite caretaker do the wash periodically was not a great solution. Next, the dishes and kitchenware that were provided were below average at best. You may find it difficult if you are planning to cook most of your meals. The other thing to be aware of is the effort needed to find and buy many food items. We were unaware of how difficult it would be to get basic items like bread, milk, vegetables, etc... Our group did a snorkeling and sunset beach/cruise excursion through Johnny, (one of the caretakers of Villa Incommunicado). These excursions were very good, and I would highly recommend utilizing Johnny Boy Tours for your excursions. The final item worth mentioning is the poor attention to detail and communication from the caretakers of Villa Incommunicado. We are still working through double billing issues with Tropic Air.

Thank you for choosing Villa Incommunicada for your Belize getaway and for sharing your feedback. We're delighted to hear that our property was comfortable for your group and that you enjoyed the amenities. Regarding the paddleboards and kayaks, we appreciate your feedback. While they were purchased new in July, we acknowledge that wear and tear may occur over time due to the usage by various guests. Rest assured, even if they are additional bonus amenities only that we provide for our guests' enjoyment, we'll do our best to maintain them regularly to ensure they're in top condition for future use. We also regret any inconvenience you experienced in accessing groceries. As part of our commitment to guest satisfaction, we offered grocery shopping assistance before your stay since there are multiple grocery stores in town and we understand that the location may present challenges. Anyway, we'll continue to explore ways to enhance convenience for our guests in this regard. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again in the future for an even better experience!

excellent property for a big family!

The property was very nice as well represented in the ad. Rooms were well appointed, plenty of lounge chairs, nice pool and dock and spacious kitchens. Our complaints are few, but worthy of note. None of the TVs were working on arrival; for the 3 floor home, the was only 1 toaster and two coffee machines. No sponges or brooms, cooking oil. If this is SOP, then the guests should be told, so you can put it on your shopping list. The Property managers were very helpful overall, but we got the impression they were very busy. E.G., I requested flippers for day 1. They didn’t arrive until day 3. We were over an hour late returning from a tour. They coordinated everything, but sometimes we needed a lot of clarification. Still couldn’t have had as good a time without them! Jorge was a very helpful house man. Our opinion is that both the property owner and managers should assume that their guests know nothing about Vrbo, Belize, or the property. One other thing about Belize. If you’re traveling with kids, check the flight rules. If you’re in the unusual situation of having to come separately as one of ours was, you may have a mess on your hands because of child abduction rules. Two of our group were turned away at the airport and lost a day with much frustration. We had known idea, and would never have thought to ask. It would have been nice if the Ad or Owners had this information on the website. Goes for any property on Belize and who knows what other countries!

Amazing house and hospitality

My friends and I rented Villa Incommunicada to celebrate my 40th birthday. The house and property were both beautiful, as represented on the listing. We had plenty of beds and bathrooms for our group of 8 ladies. Cora and Johnny, the property managers, were both very helpful and great at communicating. Cora arranged for our golf carts to pick us up from the water taxi and she was at the house to great us with welcome drinks! I had previously sent a grocery list, so our kitchen was stocked. It is so nice that they offer to do the grocery shopping and provide a chef for two meals. I would encourage you to take advantage of these services, but make sure you bring enough cash (American money is fine) to pay them. I was a little surprised as how expensive the groceries were, but it makes sense when you consider that most things need to be shipped to the island. On my birthday Cora brought over a nice bouquet of flowers, small gift and a note for me, which I thought was very sweet! Johnny gave us a ride on his over to “Secret Beach” that day as well ($20US/person). It was very fun day! Unfortunately one of my friends jumped into the shallow water and injured her ankle. Luckily Cora happens to be a nurse and she went above and beyond by getting some medicine and crutches for my friend! My friend decided to wait until we were home to seek medical care, but it was convenient to have a nurse who was familiar with the medical care available on the island for information. Of note, we did have a lot of little “friends” on the property including raccoons, iguanas, snakes, ants and a few cockroaches...but I think that is just how things are on the island. If you don’t appreciate such little friends, I would recommend going somewhere other than Ambergris Caye for your vacation. I do wish the house was a little closer to town, it is about a 20 minute golf cart ride to town. However, Cora was able to arrange a taxi driver for us on some nights, so we didn’t need to worry about driving our golf carts home after a fun night out! I would highly recommend this house for your wonderful vacation. I should also mention that all of the bedrooms have air conditioning that works well! :)

Family fun

The property was just as described. We had 6 couples and we had plenty of room to spread out when we needed space and to come together when we wanted. We took advantage of Cora and Johnny’s expertise and planned excursions most days. They mad the process so easy. Cora is truly the best thing about this property. She is priceless! She was attentive to our needs and helpful with all of our needs. I would not plan anything without her help. She made our trip organized and stress free! Our only issue was the mosquitos. The grounds keep Jorge put out mosquito coils but it didn’t help enough. Bring lots of bug spray to avoid the hassle of these pests. All in all, it was a family vacation to remember!

Great property for a family vacation

A fabulous location right on the beach! Good sized bedrooms and two living spaces - comfy couches upstairs and a great dining kitchen with island downstairs. Pool is perfect for the kids and a cooldown in the heat, and there's a private dock to enjoy the view, sit at the end to enjoy a cocktail in the breeze. Cora was super helpful throughout the stay, arranging tours and answering questions about the island. Her husband Johnny has a lovely boat for snorkeling or trips - visit Cay Caulker for a different island perspective :) It's about 20mins on the golf cart to town, but there's a bar across the street for quiet drinks and bar food. This was our third trip to Belize and I'm sure we'll be back!

Expect the unexpected

The house it self was great .The dock was something different it is old with a lot of old boards and when my wife went down the steps to get in the water the step gave way and she ended up falling and breaking a bone in her ankle . So of course it was her birthday trip and several excursions had to be cancelled. The mosquitos are really bad so be prepared, Our Chef dinner was bad the steamed veggies was not even cooked and the chicken was tough. so please be careful . Otherwise be informed of the extra little charges like for water and tissue and laundry, , We made the best out of a bad situation because we spent a lot of money to book. See johnny for excursion like fishing and secret beach he is the best.....Cora will arrange everything for you to do.

Our apologies that your stay was not satisfactory. We do strive to provide our guests with a wonderful stay every time! Like we mentioned to you at the time of the accident, we are very sorry about the recently installed stairs accidentally coming away from the dock and are lucky that we have an RN working for us (the amazing Cora!) who could come out and verify there were no major injuries within minutes. We were also so glad to see that the fall didn’t slow you down and you were still able to enjoy parasailing, Secret Beach and a beach BBQ trip with Johnny! He really is an amazing tour guide!

Beautiful visit to South San Pedro in July

We had an amazing time staying at this property the house and location are absolutely beautiful. What made our stay was Cora and Jonnie. They know so much about the island, had great recommendations and Johnnie and his crew took us out on excursions that I will never forget!! Just an amazing experience. There were a few inconveniences with the house. There is no washer and dryer and no dishwasher. Also, no toilet paper replaced after the first use and no toiletries are provided: We had a very large group so if you are traveling with a large group beware there are no extra sheets or blankets. Outside of these things the house was perfect, just helps to know these things beforehand.

About the host

We believe the people behind your vacation can make just as much difference as the property itself.

Cora is your local point of contact in Belize and can help make planning your stay easy from the moment you book. She can assist with transportation from the airport, golf cart rentals, groceries before arrival, restaurant recommendations and reservations, private chefs, massages and excursions.

Johnny is an Ambergris Caye native, licensed tour guide and PADI-certified scuba instructor with extensive knowledge of the island and surrounding waters. From snorkeling and diving to fishing and private boat adventures, he can help you experience Belize far beyond the typical tourist itinerary.

Jorge helps care for the villa and property and can also provide wash, dry and fold laundry service during your stay.

Our goal is to give guests the privacy and freedom of a private villa while still having knowledgeable local people available when you need them.

Why they chose this property

Villa Incommunicada was made for traveling together without being on top of each other.

Large vacation homes often give a group enough bedrooms but only one main gathering area. Here, three separate living spaces and kitchens give families and groups flexibility that is difficult to find in a traditional villa.

Some guests can relax by the pool while others enjoy the rooftop or dock. Early risers can have coffee without waking everyone else. Kids and adults can spread into different living areas. Multiple families can vacation together while still having a little independence.

The location offers another balance we love: you're close enough to San Pedro to enjoy restaurants, nightlife and everything the island has to offer, while staying outside the busiest part of town in a quieter waterfront setting.

It is a particularly good fit for extended families, multiple couples, groups of friends and celebrations where everyone wants to be together—but still wants some personal space.

What makes this property unique

What makes Villa Incommunicada special isn't any single amenity. It's the combination.

You have a private oceanfront villa, large private pool, rooftop deck, private dock, multiple living areas and kitchens, six bedrooms and plenty of space for a large group—all in one property.

The private dock also gives the villa a very different Belize experience. Boat-based snorkeling, diving, fishing and other adventures can be coordinated around your stay, making it easy to spend less time organizing transportation and more time enjoying the water.

Then there is the local support. Cora, Johnny and Jorge give guests access to people who actually know the island. Transportation, golf carts, groceries, restaurants, excursions, private chefs, massages and other vacation details can all be coordinated without guests having to figure everything out on their own.

You get the privacy of renting an entire villa with much of the convenience and personal service people normally associate with a resort.

No cleaning fee. What you see from us is what you pay for the villa; Vrbo may add its own service fee and applicable taxes.
