Rented Casa Edie for a birthday getaway with friends and family (8 adults total) who stayed comfortably in the house for a week - we enjoyed everything about the house: it’s location, the overall price for the rental, sitting on the balcony in the evenings enjoying the ocean breeze, and access to the beach, boat, and dock - which be prepared, are shared with other rentals/the owner’s of the house.
I can’t say enough good things about the house caretaker, Orlando, and his wife who were so welcoming, helpful, and accommodating during our stay. If you have the time, be sure to have him take you out on the boat to go fishing - what an amazing experience!
We rented cars for our stay which also gave us the ability to do a variety of other activities; would recommend for longer stays to be able to get to things easily (grocery store, Placencia, tours that leave from Placencia, Mayan Ruins, Cockscomb Basin, etc)
The only downside of this rental was the difficultly I had with responsiveness/communication from the concierge service offered by Vacasa leading up to the trip for planning activities we would do once we arrived for our vacation. After several emails, I did end up booking a private chef for my birthday dinner through the concierge service but all other activities we booked/coordinated on our own because of this difficulty. However once we arrived, the local operation manager, Kaprie, was very responsive.
