It was way more than the pictures. The landscape was as if you were experiencing an oasis in the desert. Michelle and Scott were the best hosts and beyond accommodating. I'll definitely be returning to utilize the entire compound.

Amazing guest house
This was an absolutely fantastic guest house with phenomenal hosts. The pool was amazing for a quick night swim before bed. The decor was fun and everything had great attention to detail. My 11-yo son rated this as the best hotel he’s ever stayed in.

So much fun!
We had so much fun staying at the Gecko Bungalow. The adult kids loved the pool and the whole resort vibe of the pool area, outdoor sitting space and all the plants. We "older" people just enjoyed hanging at the pool and outdoor kitchen soaking in the Caribbean air. At night the place lit up and transformed into a completely different place. We had so much fun. We will be back and we will tell all our friends. Thank you so much Michelle and Scott. You both rock!!!

Great gem by the airport
The Gecko is an amazing little oasis carved out near the airport. They have done such a fantastic job building out this special place. Michelle and Scott, the owners, are delightful people and extremely hospitable. There was some confusion on my end when booking, and they were very accommodating in helping to resolve it. I cannot recommend this enough for a little stay before or after your trip in Belize.

Great last night in Belize
Cozy bungalow close to the airport. We had an early flight out and wanted to avoid the drive in from Belize City. This was a perfect option for us. The bedrooms were comfortable and the AC was great. We enjoyed our last evening by the pool. Communication was great. Would happily return.

It was like staying with your favorite relatives
Disclaimer: This is my experience and does not guarantee the same for your stay.* I am a law student who decided I needed to escape California for spring break at the last minute. I did not have ANYTHING planned, and I traveled solo. Staying at the Gecko house made my spontaneous trip feel like I went to visit my aunt and uncle! Not only was I picked up from the airport, but Scott also introduced me to his friends on the island, and they accompanied me out for my first dinner in Belize. The next day I was able to catch some great tours (also set up by Scott and Michelle) by renting their vehicle, and Scott even let me borrow cash for my trip until I could find an atm (whaaaatttttt!!!) When it was time for me to leave, Michelle set up my ride to the water taxi and showed me how to purchase my tickets. They took control of all the planning so I could study and unwind. This was BY FAR the best experience I've had at an air b &b, and I look forward to staying with them again!! Michelle, you were lovely, but Scott, this one goes out to you!!

Felt like staying with friends
The listing is exactly as described. We chose it for the proximity to the airport for our final night in Belize. It was not only practical for that reason but such a peaceful, relaxing end to our trip before a full day of flying home. Scott and Michelle felt like new friends with their great stories and information.

Beautiful pool & landscaping, great hosts!
Perfect spot for us & our dogs. Beautiful pool & landscaping that will serve as your outdoor living room. Friendly & accommodating hosts (we are always hesitant to stay where owners are onsite -- but Scott & Michelle were super laid back and truly great hosts!). No full stove/oven but does have electric burners, toaster & microwave so it was easy to make breakfast before heading out for the day. This is now our go-to spot when we need to spend time in Belize City (already booked our next stay!). Highly recommended!

Michelle and Scott were by far the best hosts we had on our trip! They were super accommodating and were very responsive with messages. I had reached out to Michelle for restaurant recommendations while on our way and they had dinner made for us when we got there poolside! They were very accommodating and 2 steps ahead if we ever needed anything. I would absolutely come back and stay again and again!

Delightful
Michelle and Scott are lovely hosts. Their attention to detail and personal touch makes the Gecko Bungalow even more appealing. All pictures are accurate and represent well. The sweet bungalow is well maintained and very clean. Michelle’s responsiveness to emails was superb and her willingness to help made our stay unforgettable. We were thankful to have Scott as our navigator, and his gregarious personality was very comforting as this was our first time in Belize. The care and attention they placed on the meals and interactions with us was truly top-notch. The beautiful and private pool and outside kitchen is outstanding, and just what the doctor ordered after a long flight. When we departed, it was like leaving old friends. Thanks Michelle and Scott!

Simply the best!
This is a fabulous bungalow with a fabulous hostess (thanks, Michelle!). So much information on what to do and see and how to get it done. We wish we could have stayed longer, but had to head back home the next day. A transfer to and from the airport and a night of laughs at the shrimp farm. Could not have been a better way to end our amazing experience in Belize! We'll be back...

Excellent location close to both the Belize City airports. Friendly, accommodating hosts. Best of all is the fact that the location is out of Belize City where you feel safer and away from the incessant barking dogs that seem to plague staying in the city proper.

Location, location, location .... Hands down the best place to stay!
My best friend and I had never been to Belize and decided, on a whim, to pay it a visit and let me tell you ... it was AMAZING but we would not have been able to experience all that we did had it not been for the location of the bungalow and the guidance of Michelle and Scott! First of all, let me start by saying that the bungalow is perfect! It's super cute and very cozy! My family and I have been using HomeAway vs. hotels for vacation rentals since 2012 and this has been by far the most welcoming and comfortable stay I have ever experienced with a vacation rental. I usually have a hard time sleeping when I am on vacation but I slept like a baby every night we were there! Michelle and Scott really take care of you. They make you feel like you are a family member coming in for a visit! Even their dogs make you feel like family ... especially sweet Lincoln! :):):) Resort vacations are relaxing and hey, there is nothing wrong with spending 5 days on the beach drinking rum but we wanted to get out and mingle with the locals. We really wanted to explore and see all that Belize has to offer... and the bungalow is the perfect location to do that! We did and saw soooo much in the 5 days we were there thanks to Michelle and Scott! We definitely got our beach and rum time in but man did we experience so much more! Michelle and Scott made fantastic recommendations for food, places to visit and helped us book excursions to ensure that we were safe and taken care of! They even rented us their car and got us to and from the airport ... which was a HUGE help! We are already planning our next trip to Belize and the Gecko Bungalow!

Adorable home away from home!
We had a blast. The owners are a kick in the pants: nice, genuine, friendly, helpful and very knowledgeable about the area. We would recommend this cute little property to anyone and everyone! Michelle picked us up and dropped us off at the airport. She shared with us where to shop, eat, how to get the water taxi to the islands and even put out beach towels for us when she knew we were going snorkeling. Just overall awesome people. We will be back!

Amazing
We were greeted at the airport by the owner, taken to the cute little bungalow and were given all the scoop about Belize. The car we rented from them did the trick, nothing fancy but in Belize there is no need for fancy. The bungalow was great with nice comfy beds and good air conditioners. A full kitchen was great. Scott was amazing and we enjoyed visiting every night on the patio. Would definately recommend and return!!! Being a dog lover really helps too..LOL

Cute cottage.
Cute and probably good for short term stays of less than a week. We were booked for 8 weeks but left after 3. Lots of bugs as they get in through the screens and there are no glass windows. There are no cooking facilities which means you are eating out every meal which gets old when realizing the most consistently open restaurants are pseudo Chinese that get old quickly. There is nothing to do, and very little to eat in Ladyville. You will have to travel to enjoy the country. The bungalow is not a separate entity but is attached to the house through a shared roof so there is no privacy as without air conditioning in the main room, the door has to be open. Don’t rent the 2009 Kia. The power steering works selectively and only when the car is up to speed making it very difficult to leave a parking lot and the air conditioning only works at night or when it is cloudy. The car was cheaper than the rental agencies but it was by no means cheap. An actual rental car would have had a/c that works which is almost necessary in Belize, and if one brought it back three weeks early there would have been some kind of refund. I think they cater mostly to overnight backpackers which this would be appropriate for. Michelle is an excellent host.

Thanks for taking the time to write a review!We've previously replied that the Bungalow is not suited extended stays.Reservations are typically 1- 14 nights. While the beds are super comfy, it's not suitable for monthly rental.Against our better judgement, we made the exception when we saw you were traveling with a cat.("Puzzles" was charming, by the way!)Being animal lovers, we thought you might have trouble finding accomodations in Belize & accepted your reservation. Besides, we had to meet the couple that brings their cat on vacation! We haven't heard of bugs getting through the screens, but you do need to apply bug spray in the morning & evening. It's common in Belize to have louvers rather than glass.They still close tightly and our a/c's are awesome.The bungalow is a free standing guest house, & the door does not need to be open to the patio, it will definitely cool faster with the door shut. We rarely use our room nearest to the patio to give our guest have privacy, yet we are available to answer any questions during your stay. That seems to be a great benefit of having our home on the same property.We truly enjoyed visiting with you & certainly shared some laughs! As advertised in the stocked kitchenette, we have a new fridge, microwave, electric 2-burner unit, pots n' pans, teakettle, blender, toaster, & anything from our personal kitchen, offered on several occasions. About 15 menu's from local restaurants are on the info desk. Guests in Ladyville enjoy the nearby Eco Park with huge pool, horseback riding, river kayaking(4 miles away) Sports Bar or Marina Bar w/ full menu(3.5 miles) ShrimpFarm/Croc Rehab(2.5miles) AltunHa & Lamania Mayan ruins(30 & 45 minutes) Zoo or Baboon Sanctuary(25 minutes) Cave tubing/Zip Lining(40 minutes) Water taxi to the islands (half hour) & more! We show you as arriving Feb 9th & departing to Canada on March 23rd, 3 weeks early, for a reason unrelated to this review. I'm glad you decided to revisit many of the places we took you.The Cayo jungles are amazing, & we can see why you fell in love with the bay in Corozal.It was a pleasure having you ride along when I had to work in remote locations.Thanks for the heads up about the Kia, a bearing was in the a/c, causing the cooling issue & noise.The mechanic can't find anything wrong w/ the new power steering.Subsequent renters have not had an issue. For your lengthy stay, we were happy to discount the competitors rate by 50% :) Best of luck with your move & safe travels!

They answer questions, offer suggestions, and calm the nerves of travelers New to a foreign country. Picked us up and dropped us off at airport as we wished, and the rental car was so convenient.

Michelle and Scott were such great hosts. Very informative regarding the area we were at and where we were heading. It was great to get to ask questions regarding the relocation process as we are contemplating quite the move. Michelle met us at the airport and drove us to there adorable home. We stayed in a quaint room in the main house which I really enjoyed as it gave us the chance to get to know Michelle and Scott a little better. When we left the next morning to catch the water taxi, Michelle drove us in to Belize city and dropped us off right at the terminal. Overall great host and hostess. I would definitely recommend staying with them and taking the time to get to know them

Where true Belizean culture happens
My husband and I love to jump off a plane grab a car and drive. Scott made sure we knew how to drive, told us the best places to go and even took care of our personal belongings while we dropped off our stuff and headed down Hummingbird highway in his rental car for two days. Scott is the first friend you make in Belize. If your coming for the first time and tourism island is not your thing, this is who you gotta have as your host!
