Beachfront Pool Home 'Angels Landing'

We enjoyed the pool and beautiful view. We had a couple of issues with the house, but Angela and her husband resolved them which we appreciated. We enjoyed how quiet and peaceful it was when we were there.

Loved the house and was perfect for our family! Plenty of room!!! Gorgeous pool and beach setting! Can’t wait to go back!

We were 2 couples traveling to Belize for the first time, and we loved the quiet tranquility at Angels Landing. Plenty of space for 4 people. Very private beachfront. The home was lovely with breezes to keep it comfortable during the day, and AC in each bedroom at night. The bedrooms are open to the ceiling, so any noises can be heard throughout, limiting privacy a bit, but it was fine. We used the kitchen a lot and found most of what we needed right there. We were 1/2 hour from Placencia Village by car. Lots of speed humps. We dove with Splash Divers in the Village. Dive sites were quite far by boat but very nice diving. Fishing was good with local people. We dined on fresh fish on several of our nights. The water in front of the house has a sandy bottom, so not good for snorkeling unless you float or kayak 150+ yards out to the far left of the house where there are some coral heads and fish. The pool was a wonderful asset. We used it a lot, before or after a busy day. The local people were very friendly and helpful. Phil and Angie were great, giving us suggestions and answering our questions about the surrounding area. We are back in Maine now, still trying to adjust to reality again! Wonderful vacation!

***Angela, the homeowner, minimizes or scoffs at any negative reviews. VRBO will not allow me to include my contact info in this review (not sure if you can message me via my VRBO account) or post the photos and videos of the construction sites. We also took photos of the property in the immaculate condition we left it since Angela has displayed a remarkable lack of integrity.***

I am a U.S. Navy Senior Chief and I just returned from a 14 month deployment in Djibouti, Africa. Previous to renting Angel’s Landing, I contacted Angela via email and described that I will have been gone for 14 months in an environment that was constant noise 24/7 of jets, helicopters, etc. and in a very high stress position and that I was looking for solitude and peace and quiet so that I could de-stress and my husband and I could reconnect. Based on her reply, we rented the home.

Our first morning at 7:00 a.m. we awoke to very loud construction noise. The ocean is 50 feet from the home and we couldn’t hear it at all over the noise of tile saws, pneumatic equipment, cement mixers, hammers, drills, axes, etc. Nor could we completely relax with all the construction workers that were within 20 feet of us. Two full, heavy duty construction sites right next door. We contacted Angela but she did not contact us back. We found out the heavy construction would be going on indefinitely from early morning to evening every day including the weekends and that construction had started in 2015 so not a recent development. Angela is fully aware of the construction as she lives down the street. Had she been honest and told me about the construction, we would never have rented Angel's Landing-she robbed us of the ability to make an informed decision. We moved to a resort after only 3 days at Angel’s Landing. Her deceit and lack of integrity ruined our vacation and caused us additional stress and doubled our expenses. Even with all that, we only requested a refund for the nights we moved out of the home which we have never received. Angela also changed our booking to cancelled so that we could not write a review. We had to file a formal complaint with VRBO in order to write this review. The home itself shows deferred maintenance and only one A/C unit worked correctly due to the lack of proper maintenance (I had the same A/C units in Africa and they ran 24/7/365.) Also, no washer and dryer and yet Angela hasn't updated the description. VRBO will not intervene on your behalf with the homeowner.

Overall our stay at angels landing was great. The view of the ocean, the location and the privacy was good. The place itself was fairly basic but with that said it had all you needed and was clean. The use of the kayaks was great. Close by Maya Beach and Placencia was very handy and fun to explore. good base camp to stage your activities from and still be able to watch a sunrise and be on the beach. or use the pool too !
