Beautiful home in idyllic setting
Hummingbird House is simply stunning with open plan living and ample space for socialising. The views are spectacular and Edwin, the caretaker, is very helpful and informative and boat trips to the beach and to the mainland for dinner makes the stay even more special.

Beautiful view and spacious house
We loved our stay at Hummingbird House and the verandas to the front and back allowed for very different but interesting vistas. We enjoyed using the kayaks and saw dolphins and a manatee. Edwin was super helpful and without the boat access to from Placencia to pick up water, groceries and get back to the vehicle for outings, it would not be doable. But Edwin was always ready. Thanks a million Edwin!

Nothing Ho-hum About Hummingbird House
From the moment we were greeted at the municipal pier by Edwin & his wife, until we said our goodbyes, our entire stay was wonderful! The house is gorgeous with huge, expansive views, both front and back, of water, boats, and the village. We loved floating, swimming, and paddleboarding off the dock, where we saw tons of ocean life! The entire stay was like a dream, and Edwin & family helped us in every way to enjoy our stay in Placencia.

What a gem! Amazing everything!
We traveled for 7 weeks starting from Cancun and followed the coast line down to Placencia. Found this gem for our last week. 3 couples recently retired shared this amazing home (we all worked together for 25 years and retired together). We’ve been busy for the previous weeks so this was our relax and enjoy time. Being on this island was a retreat. Plenty to keep us busy with the swimming, kayaks and paddle boards. Just hangin out on the dock in the hammock was legit. The caretaker Edwin and family were amazing!! Always there to get you to the mainland anytime. Open spaces and lots of room for each of us to have our own space or to gather together. We made several dinners there and watched the sunsets every night. Always had a shaded area when needed and we all really enjoyed this home. Lots to do on the mainland too. Whatever you are into they seem to have. Night life wasn’t our thing but during the day, we visited many local restaurants and bars to take in to local vibe. The people there are very friendly and worth having conversations with.

Amazing!!
We stayed at Hummingbird House for 10 days. The property is meticulously maintained; Edwin and his family are so accommodating and wonderful; sunrises and sunsets are incredible; tour guides picked us up at the house and delivered us back afterward; Edwin had great recommendations for tours and restaurants. It was overall a wonderful trip!!!
