Our luxurious beachfront villa is the ideal place to relax and get away from it all!

Why not stay long enough to do several?
Villa Bella Vista is a 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath, 2-story vacation home that has all the amenities you would expect from a 5-Star resort such as beautiful and locally crafted furniture, granite countertops, mahogany cabinetry and woodwork, full-sized washer/dryer, Smart TV's and wireless internet. This villa is beautifully decorated and features a collection of handpicked artwork created by local artists throughout the property, adding a warm and welcoming touch to every space.
On the main level, you will find a fully stocked kitchen with a wine cooler, laundry room, large family room with Smart TV, and a master bedroom suite with a king bed and glass sliding doors to the covered patio and ocean views. Step outside onto the large patio with seating, perfect for observing the sunrise over the Caribbean Sea and enjoying your morning coffee or tea.
Upstairs is the kitchenette, family room with Smart TV, bathroom with shower, and two bedrooms - each with queen beds. These bedrooms, as well as the family room, have sliding glass doors to the upper covered patio and magnificent views of the ocean and outer cayes. Enjoy outdoor seating on this large balcony overlooking the sea for a stunning sunrise experience or sip a cocktail before dinner. There is a second balcony on the opposite side of the villa with beautiful forest views for sunset.
Outside, you will find a salt water pool, outdoor shower, palapa bar, a private beach, and a dock with seating and a hammock so you can enjoy the ocean breezes day or night. The dock also has a platform for easy pick-up and drop-off from marine excursions.
Lay on the beach or in the double hammock on the dock. Snorkel in the ocean (gear provided), take out the kayaks (also provided), or just dip in the pool as you work on your tan. Our concierge service can arrange to have basic food and alcohol ready and waiting upon your arrival for a small fee or help you arrange for a private chef for those special evenings. This is a home you may never want to leave!
SPECIAL BONUS: We have purchased a six-person golf cart that is included FREE with your rental! What a fun way to explore the village at a slower pace and enjoy the locals!

This is one of the best properties we’ve rented on VRBO. The villa has a great floor plan and wonderful back yard right on the water. Extras like the kayaks and golf cart were great. We would definitely rent this property again if we ever go back to Hopkins (which is a great place to visit).
This villa had it all! Very spacious with 3 large bedrooms including a massive master bedroom with ensuite. The main kitchen on the main floor had all that we needed. There is a smaller kitchen on the upper floor. The 3 bathrooms were well equipped with warm water on demand. The plunge pool was inviting as the afternoons heated up. The dock was amazing with access to the ocean and sea breezes. Having the 6 seater golf cart was a game changer! We travelled into Hopkins daily for trips to the grocery store or amazing dining opportunities. Two marinas are a short walk from the Villa. I will definitely tell my friends and family about this wonderful island place!
We had a wonderful time in Hopkins at this spacious beach house. The location is absolutely beautiful with an amazing dock and beautiful outdoor living. House has everything you could need- exactly as described. Short 5 minute golf cart ride to the marina with a restaurant and town/resorts 5 minutes in the other direction.

We stayed with 3 adults and 3 kids and we had more than enough room. The location and setting of the house are just perfect! Gorgeous views of the water and incredibly easy access to swimming in the pool and sea. Hopkins is a great little village and there were plenty of options for restaurants.

I am so glad you enjoyed the house and amenities! I agree- there are so many restaurants and things to enjoy nearby in Hopkins. You were amazing guests, please come back and stay for another vacation anytime!
We really enjoyed our stay at Villa by the Sea! Our family of 5 had plenty of room to spread out (the teenager thought it was really cool to have his own kitchen and bathroom upstairs). The dock was amazing, and the pool was just perfect for dipping off. The host was super helpful and responsive. I would recommend a golf cart! It really made going into town more enjoyable, being in an open-air environment. We used GetToKnowBelize for a few adventures (ATM cave, snorkel, and fishing), recommended by the host, and they were great!
This house was amazing. My family loved it. We had the perfect sunrise view from the deck, we loved the sea kayaks, and having a pool at the house. The kitchen was huge, and it was so nice to have a/c. We would love to come back again one day.
We thoroughly enjoyed this comfy home away from home. Darwin helped guide us a bit when asked, exploring Hopkins, making new friends and eating the food are the best highlights!! Water was beautiful, dock and using kayaks was loads of fun for all of us! We loved this home and area and look forward to staying again in the future!

Thank you for the great review! I am so glad you enjoyed our home and amenities and I agree, Hopkins has a wonderful culture and local restaurants are really good. Please come back anytime, you were great guests!!
Everything was fantastic at this lovely house. We appreciated the plentiful towels and beach toys and the ice maker was a fun bonus. The dock was amazing, with 5 comfortable loungers and we spent most of our time there enjoying the ocean breezes. I hope we can return some day!!

Excellent communication with host. Our property manager Darwin was an absolute star throughout our stay. The property was clean, well-appointed and located with privacy yet easy reach to town. Really thrilled with our days at this property in Hopkins!

Mark and his guests were fantastic, I would definitely host them again anytime!
We loved this house! It's large, roomy, beautifully decorated, and well laid out with the main bedroom on the 1st floor. The beds are very comfortable, and the A/C works well for those hot days! The back area is so peaceful, whether you want to sit out on the deck, the porch, or the dock. The golf cart is really handy for getting into town to check out the restaurants and shops, and the owner made it easy to figure out where to go with great recommendations in the guest book. Based on what I saw, this is definitely one of the nicest rental spaces available in Hopkins, and the owner is very responsive to any questions about the property or the area. From Hopkins as a home base, we were able to go snorkeling, visit Bocawina for ziplining and hiking to a waterfall, visit the Altun Ha site, go cave tubing, go to the Belize Zoo...and had plans to do the Cockscomb waterfall hike but couldn't because of the rain. If you're looking to do any of these activities (and so many more!), they are accessible to you from this place. When you want down time or family time, the kitchen is well stocked for making your own meals, and there are a variety of card decks, games, and books to peruse. Thank you to our host for having this gorgeous place for us to relax in!

Thanks, Cathy,, for the great review! We are so glad you loved the house and all of the amazing things to do in the area. We'd love to host you anytime!
We had a great week! The dock was perfect. The water was warm and easy to swim in. The place was cool and clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. We also loved the little private pool.
Stann Creek is lovely. There are lots of nice places to eat and grocery stores nearby. It is not super touristy which is what we were looking for.

We had a fantastic week staying in this beautiful house with a stunning private dock. We were able to completely relax and enjoy peace and tranquility. Darwin was extremely helpful and quick to get back to us with any questions. We will definitely be back.
The house was lovely with many high-end features. It was great to have the pool and dock, we used both. Our timing was unfortunate with the sea grass, we often caught an unpleasant odor. We enjoyed being near, but not in town.
We had a great stay! Loved the pool, dock, and little beach. My kids learned how to open the coconuts and had a blast doing that every day. Darwin was a great resource, such a fun and interesting person to talk to and was available when we needed him. House is clean and so much space. Thank you for opening your home to us. We made such amazing memories!!

This was our second time staying at this great property. As before, it never let us down. The house is amazing, the kitchen is of great design and wonderful for serving meals. We made stewed chicken, the national dish of Belize and everyone loved it. The pier is fantastic to hang out on and swim from and then there is the pool area for a relaxing time. It is close to Bocawina where we hiked through the rain forest one day and zip lined another. It is also close to Sub Umbra Floreo chocolate farm which was an amazing and informative tour. And, of course, don't forget about the ocean. What a place to wake up everyday and see that amazing view. Highly recommend staying here. -Arne
This property is very well appointed and had everything we wanted or needed. It provided privacy for those who wanted it. A beautiful home with the amenities of a small pool, poolside side bar, dock, snorkeling equipment, kayaks, high quality beach furniture, and a golf cart made our stay the most enjoyable beach vacation we have ever had. A difficult place to say farewell to.
