About this property

Gold Standard Luxurious Villa Opal, stunning views of the Caribbean!

Stunning Villa Opal is a beach villa offering barefoot luxury in a relaxing vibe from which to explore Belize's largest island, Ambergris Caye.

Opal, boasts 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms and comfortably sleeps up to 11 guests making it the perfect choice for large families, wedding parties or couples. The interior of the villa is filled with treasures – Central American antique armoires, Mexican tiles, Guatemalan fabrics and local art work– for all to enjoy.

Start your morning by opening the French doors onto your expansive deck where you can sip your coffee while taking in the spectacular sunrise as it emerges from the emerald waters of the Caribbean. Enjoy breakfast at your outdoor dining table and then meander over for a dip in the swimming pool just steps away. Our concierge would be delighted to book an in-room massage or arrange with our partners to take you on an amazing Belizean adventure. Alternatively, perhaps book a private yoga class. Kayaks are also available so that you may explore the worlds' second largest barrier reef just minutes from our shoreline. Should a visit to San Pedro Town be of interest, you may access town by golf cart, island ferry or private water taxi.

When the sun goes down, curl up on the hammock with a good book, relax and watch a movie on the flat screen TV, or challenge your guests to a game of pool. Stroll to one of several top restaurant's minutes away. Or dinner can be prepared by chef in the fully equipped kitchen and enjoyed by candlelight in the separate dining room or casually around the oversized kitchen island. 

Our tranquil Belizean paradise awaits you.

Belize Beach House

We had a great time at this beach property. The staff does a great job of keeping the grounds and house clean, safe and secure. We had a lot of fun fishing with a local charter company, Beach BBQ, snorkeling and swimming with sharks & rays, swimming at sunset beach, eating at new and different restaurants and exploring the area. It was a great experience and highly recommend.

Too short a stay at La Perla de Caribe Opal Villa

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a terrific time in Villa Opal at Perla de Caribe. Unfortunately, we missed a day due to airline issues and that cut the stay very short for the long travel days, but Perla de Caribe is great.

Fabulous Large House

8 of us, high school classmates, rented this 5 bedroom house and we had a better than expected experience. The house was great, lots of bedrooms and bathrooms. The pool was clean and refreshing. We all enjoyed the pool. The warm clear Caribbean Sea is right there but there is really no beach due to the sea wall. It was a fabulous house and location. Staff was very attentive. Loved the whole package.

The absolute best! You should stay here!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I loved absolutely everything about this place. It is a drive from the city. But I had a group of 9 and really wanted all of us to be together. Everything we needed was provided. Communication was the best I ever had. Everyone felt like family. One of the best places I’ve ever stayed. And the place is huge. Very clean. The pool was clean. I’m a photographer and was absolutely blown away with the artwork and also the many places to take photos and content. I’m coming back for sure.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Michaela took care of everything. We had the most wonderful trip to Belize. The house was gorgeous, clean and if we needed anything at all Michaela took care of it. Everyone was so nice, so much to do on and off the island of San Pedro. Food was amazing from private chef. Bring lots of tip money, everything is so reasonable and there is no one you will meet that you won’t want to thank for the experience!

Beautiful villa, grounds, and service

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The staff at La Perla are extremely nice, polite, responsive, and professional. Villa Opal was a lovely home with everything we needed (with bonuses like a pool table), and the daily housekeeping was worth it's weight in gold. The grounds are well manicured, and the additional amenities such as golf carts, kayaks, bikes, chef, etc. made the stay even more enjoyable. We would rent again here in a heartbeat.

Lovely Villa in a Stunning Location

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our group of 10 stayed at La Perla in January 2018 and it lived up to our hopes for true Belizean villas in a beautiful location. We loved the quiet locale and being on the north side. From the views to the pool to the white sand, the grounds are impeccable. The onsite staff is top notch and helped us handle many different excursions and situations. The villas have large beautiful decks and are furnished nicely. Just a wonderful vacation, if you want to really get away from it all.

Absolutely beautiful stay and great service.

When you talk about a hidden gem, this is a definition of one. The staff worked efficiently and very fast. The rooms are spotless. The villa has nice art designs and a Guatemalan look and feel. That really gave it a beautiful look and we had a wonderful time. We will definitely return. There are numerous fun restaurants and resorts nearby to check out, all very fun. Next time you're thinking about choosing a resort or rental property in the Caribbean, definitely consider La Perla Del Caribe. I recommend that you speak to the staff. They are extremely helpful and are there to make your stay more enjoyable. -Vincent

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Walking distance to amazing food. The property was beautiful and the views were second to none. If you are looking to play on the beach San Pedro might not be for you. Don't let that stop you. Let Roberto and his team take you out snorkeling, diving, fishing, and to secret swimming spots. We made life long friends in this awesome country. Michalea is the host- She is wonderful and will make sure your experience there is perfect.

Would definitely come back

First off, Michaela and her staff made our trip so enjoyable. She was available for any question, any request and helped us navigate an issue we had with our cart rental... on her day off!! The property is beautiful. We stayed in Opal (2 families of 4) and it was the perfect set up. We loved how quiet the area was. We drove into San Pedro several times and went to Secret Beach twice. We would recommend Blue Bayou at Secret Beach, The Truck Stop and The Garage. Having Sundecks so close was great too. We ordered salads from them several times during the week. We kayaked out to the reef and snorkled several times. If that's something you'd want to do, bring your snorkel gear! We will definitely be back to La Perla! Many thanks to Michaela! 😉👍❤

Family of 7 adventure in Belize

The property is beautiful, it’s rare for us to find a place that our family of 7 can all have their own beds. We had so much space to spread out and hang out. There is plenty of supplies and they provide bottle water and ice. The property manager was helpful and set up a private chef dinner for us one night. The property is a 30 minute golf cart ride on a very bumpy road outside of town. If you want to cook your own meals on vacation it’s a great location but we had to drive back and forth every day. They do their best to keep the beach clean but we just used the pool. Secret beach is the nicest beach and it’s 20 minute drive. The WiFi didn’t work well which was a challenge when my husband had to do some work. It’s the perfect location if you want to escape the hustle.

Perfect island getaway for a large family

We spent two weeks relaxing in Villa Opal, La Perla del Caribe, Belize. At + 28C it is a long way from the -28C we left behind! La Perla is its own little neighbourhood. Twelve private homes along the beach roughly 5 miles from San Pedro. A quick 20 minute ride on the Coastal Express and you are in the heart of town. Four restaurants within walking distance. A cool little grocery store about 15 min walk down the beach. Kayaks at our disposal; a beautiful swimming pool in which to escape the heat; fishing off the dock; a poolside barbecue to fry up our catch; fully equipped kitchen etc. Our family of 5 had a wonderful, relaxing time. We used the villas bicycles and rode to Ak'Bol for a little yoga on the dock. Another day we had a yoga teacher come to our spacious deck for a private yoga class followed by massages. We all enjoyed a snorkelling trip to Shark Ray Alley and then lunch on a neighbouring island called Caye Caulker. The trip to Altun Ha and Maruba Jungle Spa is definitely worth the adventure. Belize is everything we read about on Trip Advisor and we understand now why Ambergris Caye was voted as the number 1 island in 2013.

Wonderful Thanksgiving Reunion

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family from various corners of the US met for a beautiful 6 day getaway based out of Villa Opal. Everyone at La Perla Del Caribe was spectacular. The snorkeling just off the property which was accessible by complimentary kayak was exquisite. Maria Galvez, a local chef, prepared our amazing lobster Thanksgiving feast. Norma at Diamond Adventures arranged a full day catamaran snorkeling trip for all of us. The golf carts were there and ready for us. The location with the reef is the best reason to choose this accommodation and the wonderful hospitality directed by the lovely Alexa is a great reason to return! (Remember to reserve a grill in advance if you need it for a particular night! It all worked out, another tenant was finished by the time we needed it) Also, the 5.5 miles to town seems a lot longer due to the conditions of the road but that is just something to know. Travel can be arranged by boat to different restaurants or town. One night we even had pizza delivered by boat!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a beautiful spacious home and was perfect for our family gathering. They were always super responsive with any questions we had or helping us to arrange travel. We rented a golf cart through them and they took care of all of the logistics and had it waiting for us upon our arrival. We took a boat back to the airport the morning we left also arranged through them, and that was super convenient. We also appreciated they furnished 5-gallon bottles of water and replaced them when needed. The pool was beautiful and many of us spent time around and in it.

The staff was very attentive. The villa (Opal) was more than we expected. We loved the Villa Chef (Maria) and used her quite often. The shared pool was never crowded. Michaela was great in helping us coordinate excursions. We were all sad to leave and already planning a trip back! While the location is a little far from San Pedro town, it was not difficult to travel there via golf cart. Everyone was ridiculously nice and helpful.
