Villa Okeanos - Waterfront Villa with Pool

Welcome to Villa Okeanos! A 4-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom waterfront villa with private chef included.

Nestled within a private gated community, the villa sits along a peaceful, mangrove-lined canal with direct access to the beautiful Placencia Lagoon. Enjoy covered, secure parking and an included golf cart, making it easy to explore nearby restaurants, beaches, and the charming Placencia Village just minutes away.

Villa Okeanos is a gorgeous architectural retreat in Placencia where modern, coastal-chic design seamlessly blends with mindful, minimalist living. Set along the tranquil waterfront canal near the Placencia airstrip, this stunning villa features floor-to-ceiling windows that flood every room with natural light, high wooden ceilings, warm Belizean hardwood finishes, and large comfortable indoor and outdoor spaces that invite you to slow down and truly exhale.

The bright, open-plan living and dining area is the heart of the home, with comfortable sofa seating, a large 8-seater dining table perfect for group meals, and a sleek, fully equipped kitchen with high-end Bosch appliances ideal for everything from quick breakfasts to full chef-prepared dinners. A convenient half bath and full laundry are also located on the ground floor.

The villa offers four thoughtfully appointed bedrooms that comfortably accommodate up to seven guests. Each room features minimalist elegance, beautiful wood-paneled walls, and large windows that frame the stunning surroundings. The sleeping arrangements are perfectly tailored for families with children or teenagers, featuring two primary suites that each boast a plush King bed, a third bedroom set up with two Twin beds, and a cozy fourth bedroom with a single Twin bed. This flexible configuration ensures privacy and comfort, allowing every guest to wake up refreshed and ready for a new day.

Step outside and the indoor-outdoor layout comes to life, with a private plunge pool surrounded by landscaped gardens, a shaded lower deck with plush sectional seating perfect for board games and easy conversation, multiple balconies and terraces for unwinding in the Caribbean breeze, and a rooftop terrace where string lights illuminate evenings under the stars. Step onto your private dock, where fishing charters and boat tours can pick you up for unforgettable days exploring the Caribbean Sea and nearby islands. A wood-fired pizza oven and outdoor BBQ grill make alfresco dining an experience in itself.

Perfectly positioned for adventure, the villa offers easy access to fishing, snorkeling, island hopping, and unforgettable day trips to Belize's lush jungles, waterfalls, and ancient Mayan ruins.

**CHEF SERVICE**
Your stay includes complimentary private chef service for stays of 4 nights or more, one full chef day for every two nights stayed. Each chef day includes 3 meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) prepared fresh for your group. For example: a 6-night stay includes 3 chef days; an 8-night stay includes 4 chef days. You will only need to reimburse the chef directly for the cost of groceries. Nothing is marked up, and the chef will provide you with an invoice, payment instructions, and copies of all receipts. Food costs typically run $45 to $50 per person per day based on the preset menu. Need the chef more often? Additional chef days can be added for $125 per day.

Grocery stocking service is also included with your stay. There is a provisions list of basic groceries, snack items and beverages you can fill out if you wish to have those items stocked at the house when you arrive. The chef will purchase your groceries, and you only reimburse the items bought.
