The Alaskan Reprieve (AKA Prax & Associates)… new build that is only 100 steps to the beach! This property is the perfect place to stay!

So what sets the Alaska Reprieve apart from other rentals

LOCATION: We are located right in the Village of Placencia on the famous sidewalk which means you experience the village's Caribbean vibe and have easy access (walking distance) to everything in the village. While we are not beachfront, we are one lot back and less than 100-steps from the Caribbean Sea.

COST SAVINGS – Not only is our daily rate very affordable, but you also save because… You won’t need a rental car as there is easy access to everything! Our kitchen is fully equipped, so you can opt to eat in. Laundry facilities are available, so you can do your laundry using our washer, clothesline, and dryer, so you do not have to pay to have your laundry done. We have bikes, kayaks, snorkel gear, floaties, beach chairs, beach towels. so you can just use ours and you don’t have to rent or bring your own.

CONVENIENCE – We are less than a 10-minute walk from every comfort and service in the village! The point of the peninsula is only a 15-minute stroll away and most conveniences are even closer…

To the east… less than 100 steps away to the beautiful Caribbean beach.

To the north on the famous sidewalk… Only a 2-minute walk to the Placencia Beach Club. If you don’t want to swim in the ocean, we offer you our corporate membership where you can swim, eat, and drink at the Placencia Beach Club. They have daily lunch specials and a swim-up bar. Just let PBC know you are staying with us.

To the south on the famous sidewalk… Only a 4-minute walk to Detach Restaurant or Beaches & Cream Expresso. Only a 5-minute walk to the nightlife hub – Barefoot Bar and Tipsy Tuna. No worries about a DUI!

To the west and then south down the Placencia Road… Only a 3-minute walk to... the Pharmacy which is newly built and modern; the spa for a massage that will ease away all tensions from travel; the bank and ATM to get more cash; the best grocery store in the village. Only a 5-minute walk to Bubba Wubbs’s Bar (Grill and Smoke Shack); and two coffee shops for your morning espresso or coffee. Less than 10 minutes walk to all restaurants, bars, grocery stores, gift shops, coffee shops, wine bars, fruit stands, spas, and tours located on Placencia Road. Only a 15-minute walk to the end of the peninsula, where you can check out the daily catch.

NATURE, REST, AND BEAUTY – Because we are located at the north end of the village and in a residential area, we enjoy clean, uncluttered, and manicured beauty. Beautiful sunrises over the Caribbean. Stunning landscaped lots with exotic plants. Early morning bird and hummingbird watching. Mating iguanas and chirping geckos.

AMENITIES – Our amenities are above and beyond the average VRBO in Placencia. A pass to the Placencia Beach Club is included if you don’t want to swim in the ocean. A Samsung smart TV so you can connect and play your own movies and access your entertainment, or use the provided Netflix account. Bose speakers which you can connect using Bluetooth, free Wi-Fi, a small safe for your passports and valuables, a hairdryer, and ceiling fans inside and outside on the patio. Bicycles to get around if you don’t want to walk. Kayak’s to enjoy the ocean or the lagoon. Beach chairs, beach towels, snorkel gear and floaties to enjoy this incredible and quiet piece of paradise.

COMFORT - We are a pristine facility that offers air conditioning - some places in the village don’t have air conditioning and some charge an extra fee for use of air conditioning. Brand new firm mattresses and fluffy pillows. Our mattresses are firm, so we have added a 3 gel foam topper so our guests have the option of extra firm or a little more cushion. Egyptian cotton sheets and bedding that is air-dried (weather permitting) and fresh smelling. A full kitchen includes a 24” gas range, oven, full refrigerator/freezer with a built-in Central American style ice maker, and filtered cold water. A variety of small appliances including a coffee maker, toaster, mixer, and ice-crushing blender for your smoothies and drinks. Table settings including a full array of plates, bowls, saucers, cups, glasses, wine glasses (stemmed or not), insulated glasses, serving bowls, and utensils (knives, forks, spoons, serving spoons, steak knives). A set of sharp knives and cutting boards. Towels, sponges, dishwashing liquid, and drain rack. And if you have to work or be on your computer, we offer a desk area with a comfortable office chair and adjustable lighting.

This little piece of heaven is located in the perfect spot, not too close to the noise of the bars but very close to everything. Located at the north end of Placencia Village, right on the famous sidewalk, this stunning studio with peek-a-boo sea views through the palms and tropical foliage is contemporary, open, and airy. Plus all of our furniture is built from Belizean hardwoods by local craftsmen.

The plants on the property intensify the pleasure of being in paradise. Hibiscus, orchids, palm trees, limes, mangos, perfume trees, and many others surround the house. This attracts birds and butterflies so nature is all around. Some days the resident iguanas and geckos make an appearance. The garden has a pergola where you can hang out in the hammocks and enjoy your afternoon nap.

This is the perfect place for relaxing or for keeping busy. The options are abundant. Sunbathe, walk on the uncrowded beach, relax on your private veranda, swing in the hammocks, or sign up for excursions. You can enjoy the rich natural resources of Belize including the barrier reef, the tropical rainforests, and the Mayan ruins. This is the place for world-class fishing, snorkeling, and diving. You will also find manatee watching, hiking, river tubing, or day trips into the jungle and wildlife preserves.

This wonderful studio offers you the opportunity to be lulled to sleep by the ocean sounds and fall in love with this quiet little village!

Plus, we have two studios with identical layouts if you are traveling with another couple or children. Our first-floor listing is property number 1699427. Here is the link: https://www.vrbo.com/1699427 noDates=true

    This place is a gem. It is new, modern construction, with clean manicured grounds, built right up against the famous sidewalk. Very clean, with all the kitchen amenities you would need. Access to the beach club which is a very short walk to the north. Most operators, cab etc.. know where it is by the name Alaska Reprieve. I would recommend screenshotting the host's well documented key instructions for the front door, because although the lock is relatively easy to use, it is not necessarily intuitive. There is nothing negative to say - you can't go wrong. I would definitely stay there again.

    Very nice property, close to the beach. The “Main Street “ side wall runs right in front of the house and connects you to the downtown action. 5 minute walk to Placencia Beach Club and about 1 mile walk to the tip of the peninsula. Great place to stay.

    What a great vacation rental, exactly as described , well equipped for a few days or a month rental. Proximity to the beach, supermarket/liquor store and Placencia beach club make this a fantastic find. The pictures don’t do it justice……. The hammocks, floaties, beach towels make this a great base in Placencia Village. Mae was very communicative and provided a detailed and accurate orientation package , with easy checkin and great directions , with numerous recommendations for local eats . Admittedly we had a small issue with the AC unit , which seemed to be due to the utility power company , and out of the owner’s control , and the ceiling fans helped keep the unit cool. We would definitely stay here again, and looking at dates to return in 2025. Placencia village is a great destination with numerous shops, bars, restaurants all within an easy walk of the unit , no need for car or golf cart.

    The studio was well designed, well equipped, well maintained, and very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook throughout our entire 5 week stay. The availability of well functioning washer and dryer was so helpful. The place is extremely convenient to the beach and all the stores and restaurants in the village. The hosts were kind and caring while respectful of our privacy. We couldnt have asked for a nicer experience.

    Have you ever stayed at a property where you were disappointed when you got there? Not the case here. The pictures do not do the property justice. This is not a rental its a home. Very thoughtfully appointed. The location is fantastic. The Beach Club membership is priceless!!!

    Everything has been thought of. Perfect instructions, great suggestions and the addition to be so close to great bars and restaurants and the Placencia beach club pool and restaurant makes this a great choice. If you want something different from a resort feel then this would be for you.

    We spent 9 perfectly relaxing and wonderful days here. We loved Placencia. So many delicious places to eat just down the sidewalk. A fully stocked kitchen for cooking in, too. The condo is steps from the beach and the lunch and drinks at the Beach Club were amazing. We will be back!

    We enjoyed everything about our stay! The location is excellent and easy walking distance to the beach, the beach club, the supermarket, and the village. The path is the cutest thing you've ever seen. The house itself was perfect- comfortable bed, well stocked kitchen, good wifi, and the covered porch is great! We really appreciated the extra touches like laundry, the outdoor shower, and the bikes. The host was extremely helpful and responsive!
