Beachfront Condo Complex In Placencia Village

Welcome to Sunset Gecko Condos! A beachfront condo complex with 4 oceanfront 2-bedroom units, 8 bedrooms total, in Placencia Village!

This listing is for the entire Sunset Gecko complex, all four oceanfront units and all spaces are exclusively yours, giving your group a total of 8 bedrooms. Located on Sunset Point Drive, a prime, quiet, private street in Placencia Village, Sunset Gecko offers the rare combination of being walkable to all the shops, restaurants, and bars in the Village while sitting on a peaceful ocean-front lane away from the traffic and noise typical of most Village properties.

All four units are concrete construction with high-end finishes, professionally decorated and furnished inside and out with all the comforts of home. Each of the 8 spacious bedrooms features a king bed, a private en-suite bathroom, a private patio, its own air-conditioning unit, and a large flat-screen smart TV. Each of the 4 living rooms also has two chairs that pull out into single beds designated for children. Each unit comes with a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer, smart TVs in the living room and every bedroom, full air-conditioning, cable TV, high-speed internet, an outdoor gas grill, and covered balconies on both the sea and street sides.

The crown jewel of Sunset Gecko is the spectacular third-floor rooftop deck, shared across the complex. A large infinity-edge pool overlooks the ocean, surrounded by custom metal shade structures, high-end pool furniture, lounge areas, and dining tables. An outdoor kitchen and scenic bar complete the space, and the panoramic 360-degree ocean and Maya Mountain views from up here are simply incredible, the perfect place to watch the sunset that gives Sunset Point its name.

Sunset Gecko Condos is a certified Gold Standard Property by the Belize Tourism Board and managed by Gecko Vacation Rentals.

Amazing Vacation

From the planning to our actual time in Belize, Gecko was amazing. The staff could have not been more friendly, professional, or amazing than they were. Our chef, Omar, was absolutely amazing and cooked us the most amazing food. I did not want to go home to eat crap in the States, lol, his food was so amazing! Our housekeeper, Elda, was so helpful and kept the condo superior the entire time of our stay. I would defiantly use Gecko again for my future Belize trips.
Svar fra VrboOwner den 13. sep. 2025
Thanks so much for your wonderful feedback! Omar and Elda will be delighted to hear they made such a positive impact. Our team takes pride in treating every guest like family, and it’s great to know you felt that warmth throughout your stay.

The Sunset Condo was great! the house was really really nice. I highly recommend renting the golf cart. You are about a 4 minute golf cart ride into town. The accommodations were perfect and the beach and the coolest tree I have seen on a beach were perfect.

Gorgeous unit, clean, sun-filled, private, comfortable and nicely appointed.

Concierge communicated well with my kid to set up chocolate and spice farm tours which were 10/10. Only suggestion is that having a single person kayak in addition to the tandem kayaks would have been totally used and appreciated by us solo kayakers looking to explore.

We rented the entire building for a group vacation. The units were extremely clean and up to date. They were nicely furnished with every amenity you could think of. The grounds and common areas were well tended every day. The manager was responsive when we contacted her. All in all, the experience was fabulous. I would book here again.

Great two weeks!

Sunset Gecko is the ideal condo for two couples. Lots of room inside and two outside decks to sit and have a drink or read a book. Our group really enjoyed the roof top pool and views. The condo was well equipped for cooking and entertaining. The staff kept the outside tidy and housekeeping did a great job on the inside. The condo is a bit of a walk to get to the sidewalk area and main part of Placencia so we rented a golf cart. This made grocery shopping easier and we were able to explore further north on the peninsula several times. We have already booked our stay for 2024 so that would say it all for our experience at Sunset Gecko!

Beautiful condos!

We stayed a week and booked all four rooms to accommodate our group of 13. We loved the location. The condos provided bikes and kayaks however we also rented a golf car to get around the town as well. The rooftop pool was gorgeous and the pool was always a perfect temperature. Right across the canal there is a bar to enjoy local cocktails., it’s called The Other Side. You just stand at the doc and they pick you up by boat to get you across. So much to do and see in the town as well. Locals are all very nice and welcoming. The condos themselves were very clean and beautiful. The AC’s worked great and kept us cool at night. We also booked the private chefs for a day and the food they cooked was amazing. Also we booked the massages and I can honestly say it was the best massage I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend Sunset Gecko Condos and all the accommodations they offer!

Placencia newbies

This was our first visit to Placencia (5th time to Belize). What a trip! We are a group of 13 between parents, kids and a couple of younger children. The house was great for our needs. Kitchens are spacious and well-stocked so we were able to prepare meals on-site. The rooftop pool and deck was an obvious popular spot. The location was great for our group - at the end of the peninsula so minimal traffic and noise. Heidy did a great job as concierge.
