Great having a place on the water

We were so lucky to find Seagrape Escape! The property was perfect for the 5 of us, my husband , myself and 3 teenagers. We spent our mornings having breakfast on the dock or screened in porch followed by some paddle boarding and kayaking before we went off on our excursions to the village and tours. The caretakers Diana and Martin gave us excellent advice about tour companies and places to shop in the village. At the end of the day we usually ended up back on the dock or deck for some hammock lying (the swing bed was a huge hit with everyone) a beer and a swim before dinner. The kitchen had plenty of supplies to make a home cooked meal and the grill was perfect for grilling the lobster that we purchased right off the boat earlier that day. On nights we were too tired to cook the Maya Beach Bistro and Bowling alley came to our rescue! Because we chose August to visit Belize the weather was pretty warm but usually there was a nice breeze off the water and the AC units in the bedrooms made them super comfortable to sleep in. This was our first trip to Central America and we cannot wait to get back! The Seagrape Escape was amazing!!!

The Seagrape Escape truly made our first trip to Belize an UnBelizeable experience! During our stay, we were able to take advantage of an, almost, private beach and dock to enjoy the warm Belizean waters during the day and sitt under a blanket of stars at night. Additionally, the huge screened-in porch was the place where we enjoyed a morning cup of coffee (with, of course, Belizean coffee liquor and Baileys) to watch the gorgeous sunrises or simply rock in the bed-swing and listen to the beautiful thunderstorms. Additionally, the home is wonderfully kept with two onsite caretakers as well as an offsite owner/property manager that seems to not only ensure the property is rentable but, more importantly, ensure the Seagrape Escape feels like you are renting a vacation HOME. The Seagrape Escape provides all the amenities one would need from fresh towels, to all the kitchen accessories you need, to all the beach toys you need, and (because it's worth mentioning twice) an, essentially, private beach and dock to enjoy. I say "essentially" because the beach and dock are not actually private however, due to their perfect location on Placencia, there were few, if any, people who would walk by. If you are in need of the perfect getaway vacation home in Belize, look no further than the Seagrape Escape. However, and as the title of this review states, beware because, once you stay here it is nearly impossible to return to “regular life”. Enjoy!

Our family had an amazing time staying at Seagrape. We spent hours on the private beach and dock. The property was exactly like the pictures, and Martin and Diana were very nice and helpful. Great vacation!!

Part of my family rented Casa Beya next door- it was a Perfect time together.... the private beach & dock, the ocean view & cool breezes- these two homes provided just what we needed for our family getaway!!

Wonderful home in the perfect location, super private yet close to downtown Placencia. The house is well appointed, and has everything you’ll need for your stay in Belize. We really appreciated the paddle boards and kayak, and the covered pavilion over the water and the screened in porch were the main attractions! We could not get enough of the beautiful views and cool ocean breeze. Martin & Diana were so helpful, and made us feel safe and welcome. If you are looking for a laid back, relaxing stay in Belize, look no farther than Sea Grape Escape. It is truly one of a kind!!

Relaxing, private, and beautiful! This place has it all. It is walking distance to restaurants, bowling, and pools with swim up bars, but felt private and homey at the same time. My husband and I joked that the pavilion over the water would have been just fine for us, if we had a cooler and a sleeping bag. It is peaceful and perfect! The island in the distance is a perfect place to kayak to, and explore the jungle root system, full of birds. We took the paddle boards up and down the coast, stopping at various lunch spots and pool areas. Although it was a the rainy season, the HUGE screened in porch with amazing bed swing provided us with the most soothing afternoon naps while listening to the raindrops fall. Safe, affordable, clean...I will stay here again!
