We went over the Easter weekend, which is a big deal in Belize. Our hostess lookup in advance a few spots that remained open over the holiday. So that was top notch! I will be back!
The whole place is beautiful, with a wonderful pool and lots of flowers and trees surrounding the area. The native birds are singing and welcoming. Our room was great and had everything we needed. Scott picked us up and took us back to fly home. A total great experience.

It was amazing! I am a hotel snob and I absolutely loved the place. Every detail!!!
The poolside bungalow is a whole vibe, right down to the monkies holding the light fixtures, to the swing at the dining table! You have to see it to Belize it!! Clean, comfortable and well appointed. Mini stove, kitchenette, and rainfall shower. Best part... You walk right out on to the geck pool deck!!
The entire place is so well-designed and nicely lighted at night so the area can be enjoyed well after dark. The pool was sparkling clean and just perfect for relaxing with lounge chairs in the water. Our unit was very comfortable - great air conditioner and fan - and the decor is very cute. The owners are so helpful and friendly and very responsive and made sure we had everything we needed.
We had a delightful one night stay at The Gecko Bungalow the night before we left Belize. We originally chose the spot due to its close proximity to the airport and free shuttle. Michelle was out of the country but very responsive to our messages and even helped arrange for an early check-in for our group of 8.Scott was an amazing host, very personable, and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Lots of good conversation and fun around the tiki bar while the kids enjoyed the beautiful pool. Not to mention the best suggestion for dinner at a local brewery.The grounds and rooms are amazing with so much to explore and fun little touches around every corner. A perfect little slice of paradise.Our only regret is that we didn't choose the Gecko Bungalow for our entire trip. We are already planning our next vacation and looking forward to spending more days/nights at this amazing property!
Awesome place , would have liked to stay another night!

Owners are friendly and kind. They really anticipated our needs.
We loved our stay at the Gecko Bungalow. The location is convenient to the airport, the decorations were so fun, whimsical and charming all at the same time. And Michele was very welcoming and responsive. Everything was perfect for us, we HIGHLY recommend!
The accommodation was delightful very quaint, clean tidy with a lots of attention to detail. The hosts Michel and Scott are exceptionally thoughtful, friendly, and considerate. They are frankly the best host I have ever encountered which enhances our experience tremendously.
Michelle and Scott were wonderful hosts and the accommodations were charming!

One of the coolest places I’ve ever stayed!! The attention to detail, the landscaping, the lighting, and everything down to the handles on the cupboards was amazing. Will definitely stay there again. Michelle and Scott were fantastic hosts. I highly recommend this property!
What an amazing property.The pictures posted are great but the property has more to offer.The owners, Michael & Scott are so genuine.What thy have done to this property is amazing.I highly recommend staying here if you get a chance
This is a jewel, well located for vacationers. We stayed for two weeks and had a wonderful vacation at the bungalows. Top flight facility and everything is as advertised. Highly recommend the facility. Became friends with scott and Michelle, owners and managers.
UnBelizeableWe don’t need to repeat the wonderful reviews which all of the previous guests have written – however, they are true! Aside from the spectacular setting, the beautiful rooms and special amenities, its really the hosts that top off this perfect location.In a matter of minutes, we went from being guests to being friends. Michelle responded to any requests immediately and was a wealth of information. (Special shout out to Cave Tubing BZ. and our guide Camillio). Scott, apart from being an architectural genius, is a first-rate comedian. To say the least, we had a blast. Of course, we will be returning. Thank you guys!
At only a few minutes from the airport this place is perfect to start or end your trip on the mainland if you plan to visit other areas and want the ease of travel. Once inside the complex, you truly feel as if you are in a resort- the grounds, the pool, the entire space is carefully thought out to inspire vacation vibes. Hosts are incredible as was Felipe who all ensured my friends and I had everything we needed! Highly recommend!
Gecko Bungalows blew us away! The property was a tropical paradise! Our room was extremely clean, and full of funky details that felt truly one of a kind. Scott and Michelle were very communicative and gave us lots of suggestions to maximize our experience in Ladyville. We will definitely be back!
Absolutely LOVELY bungalow ... and LOVELY hosts! I can't say enough good things about this property -- it's an oasis! Wonderfully designed, meticulously detailed, truly an escape. Very secure, safe, and private. We only stayed one night -- a very convenient location near the Belize City airport -- but we would have been happy to stay much longer! I am certain that if/when I return to Belize, a stay at this bungalow will be included as part of the vacation! (We stayed 7 days in Hopkins Bay, not in Belize City ... so just needed 1 night at Gecko before flying out.) Thank you, Gecko, Michelle, and John! Can't wait to return ...
I am glad I booked 2 nights (instead of 1) before our journey home.
Michelle and Scott were excellent hosts and made us feel right at home. From the rooms decorated with her style and the grounds that encompass their vision of a Belezian oasis, we will definitely be back and bring friends to share the experience with.
Thank you for the memories!!!
This place is a jewel of a find! Michelle and Scott are super friendly and very attentive. They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and at home! I was asked every day if I needed a ride to the grocery or convenient store. The housekeeping was great and pool was nice! Great whimsical rooms are done very stylish and supplied with everything you need. Check out the book they put together for things to do as I rented a vehicle from them and checked out the sites they recommended! I just loved spending time by the pool to chillax. This was a vacation well needed. I will definitely come back again!
