Captain Jak's is the perfect place to stay when visiting Placencia. Located near the heart of the town, it is easy walking distance to many restaurants/bars like Barefoot Bar and Tipsy Tuna, and the beautiful beach. And if you aren't up for walking they have brand new golf carts to help you explore the town. Situated on the lagoon, our... More

What a fabulous vacation! My husband and I recently returned from a week's vacation in Placencia, Belize. We stayed at Captain Jak's and had an amazing time! We rented one of the cottages that overlooked the lagoon and very much enjoyed sitting on our deck watching boats go by. The grounds were beautiful with lots of lush greenery and flowers.... More

From the moment we stepped onto this little piece of heaven, we felt as if we knew everyone already. We were welcomed by a beautiful small resort who's owners know no strangers. Lucky who goes by the nickname " Extremely" and his beautiful wife and family have allowed guest to discover what living on a paradise island at an amazingly... More

We stayed at Captain Jak's in Placencia for 11 days in March 2012. Nice island feel to it. Cabana and grounds well taken care of. Nice to have a small kitchen. Being on lagoon it was quiet, but hot during midday without the breezes they have on the ocean side. Evening temps and ceiling fan made for good sleeping. Great... More

We stayed at Captain Jak's in Placencia for 4 days and had an amazing time. The cabanas and the grounds were well kept and cozy. The owners Lucky and Erin are great hosts. They offered a lot of information about the restaurants, bars, and things to do in the area. Lucky arranged a tour for us to see Monkey River... More

I stayed at Captain Jak's for 7 days. The property is beautiful- full of lush vegetation and the home of two charming birds named Oliver (a gorgeous African Grey) and Barney (he may be a parrot, not sure). The owners, Lucky and Erin go out of their way to make you feel at home. They are also some of the... More

If you are looking to enjoy Placancia and all it has to offer, this is the place to stay. If you are looking for an all inclusive "pamper me" resort this is not the place. We loved it mainly because you can walk to everything, grocery store, tour operators, beach, stores, etc. And also because it is far enough away... More

We stayed at one of Captain Jak's cabanas for 3 nights during our babymoon - what a wonderful place! It was definitely the best accommendation we had during our trip in Belize. We booked the place last minute the night before, and Erin and Lucky accommodated us and made us feel right at home. The property is close to the... More

We loved the villa, with it's lovely hand crafted wood design, wood floors and banisters. The bedrooms were so comfortable. I had the best sleep here than I have had in a long time! The kitchen was fully equipped so we could enjoy cooking the fresh fish and produce from the local vendors. We loved the space of having two... More
