It’s the perfect spot for sunrise coffee, sunset cocktails, stargazing, or simply taking in the beauty of Belize.

Herbert provided lots of helpful guidance as we planned our trip, from recommendations on tour services, grocery stores and restaurants along our drive from the international airport to Our Special Harbor. The house was as promised, clean, well stocked enough for the private chef we hired to prepare a wonderful meal and check in and check out were easy. We loved our stay and the two very friendly pups who visited us daily.

First and foremost our host was amazing! He had great communication and was genuinely concerned about our arrival and making sure we arrived safely. Our house was perfect! Almost halfway between Hopkins and Placencia it had lots options for things to do. We had the best sleep we’ve had in weeks in the upstairs suite. The bed was so comfortable. Thank you for the stay!

Family get away

This property was amazing! We were looking for a quiet place where we could relax with our adult children and this was the perfect home for us. Honestly, the house is what made our trip so great, mostly because of the porch. It rained quite a bit and the sun barely came out for our 8 night stay and yet we still considered the vacation a huge success. We canceled some of our planned excursions because of the foul weather and just relaxed together. We highly recommend this property!

We each had our own bedroom & bath for privacy. The house was clean & well supplied with everything we needed. I was pleasantly surprised to see tv's in both lower bedrooms since it was not mentioned in the description.A bit sad not to have a hammock to nap in but we kept busy. AC works well & beds were comfy. Highly recommend! Thanks Herbert!

This was our first time in Belize. It was amazing and awesome with this very special place to stay! Everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the mornings- afternoons and evenings at the house. Loved the pool and both decks - and just stayed unplugged from the external world but connected with the nature- the sea.. it was mesmerizing! A big thanks to the hosts and Herbert. 🙏

Perfect home to have the best of both worlds — relaxation with proximity to adventure! Pool is refreshing, and kayaks were an added bonus. Palapa shown in the pics was disassembled, which would have been great for shade on the beach. Clean home with great AC.

Perfect Beach Paradise!

We absolutely loved our stay and the house was set up to allow each group their privacy while still staying connected. The beach is beautiful, the pictures of the house are accurate. We would book here again. The only downside (which can't be helped) is the ability to walk on the beach for a bit unless you hop in the water on occasion. I love to take a mile or two stroll first thing in the morning and was not able to do so. The property managers were very available to us and did everything possible to make the stay very pleasant.

Vacation

View was outstanding. Beach was dirty and water was unclear but that may have been due to the time of year. Furnishings were nice but beds were small, not queen sized. Herbert was very helpful and easy to contact. We enjoyed our stay but may want to be closer to Placentia if we go back again.

Beautiful location and comfortable home!

We thouroughly enjoyed our recent stay at Our Special Harbor. The location is private-yet close enough to restaurants and stores (a big shout out to The Maya Beach Bistor aind Inkys!). Herbert was exceptional to work with, very prompt in responding to questions and even provided a pack n play for our granddaughter! Sitting on the upper or lower deck was so relaxing and the views amazing. The pool is small but very adequate for a refreshing dip. A few maintenance issues that did not detract from our vacation: The grill was unusable and in need of replacement, the water pressure on the second floor was very low (this may be out of the owner's control) and rain does come into the hallway stairs, the pool handrail needs reanchoring. Would recommend this house and this area for an enjoyable stay!

This house is perfectly amazing! From check-in to check-out, everything was smooth. Herbert was extremely communicative and answered all of my questions. The house was soooo clean and the beach and pool were beautiful. There are two bedrooms downstairs with two full baths and a full kitchen and one bedroom upstairs with a full bath and kitchen. We used the grill with no problems and did laundry everyday. There are several small grocery stores within a 10 minute drive that has everything you would need. We will be back to this house for another relaxing vacay!!

Absolutely perfect

This place could not have been more perfect for my family. The set up is such that it's like have three apartments. My husband and I had the top floor and my two adult sons and their significant others had the two room on the main level. It's so nice for everyone to have their own space and bathroom. Herbert was very responsive and helpful. I'm not saying this as a negative, but just for informational purposes, our wifi wasn't great with T-mobile, but someone else in our party has At&T and it worked better for her. The place is great, the beds are super comfy and the pool was larger than we expected it to be! Hope we can return.
