Oceanfront Sunset Gecko Condo - Ground Floor 1A

Welcome to Sunset Gecko Condo 1A! A 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom oceanfront condo in Placencia Village.

Sunset Gecko Condo 1A is a beautifully appointed ground-floor oceanfront unit in a high-end 4-unit complex on Sunset Point Drive, a prime, quiet location in Placencia Village with the Caribbean Sea on one side and the Placencia canal on the other.

Both spacious bedrooms feature a king bed, a large private en-suite bathroom, a private patio, its own air-conditioning unit, and a large flat-screen smart TV.

Wow, what an amazing place to vacation and getaway.

The condo was in great shape, has a beautiful layout and very high-quality. The location is second to none. From the rooftop pool, views are absolutely spectacular… water from every angle. The ability to walk downtown, or take the water taxi to "The Other Side" for a cold drink is so convenient. I would highly suggest taking advantage of a getaway to this beautiful oasis.

Sunset Gecko was beautiful

The open concept kitchen living room was comfortable and had everything you would need. The bedrooms were large and both had a bathroom connected. The pool was on the top of the house and you could relax and watch the sunset. It comes with the use of a golf cart and it’s easy to get around Placencia.

Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful month of February in Placencia, residing at Sunset Gecko condos. The rooms are clean, well equipped with kitchen essentials and tools for a comfortable stay. We had two family members join us in the two bedroom and two bath unit on the ground floor. The location is on a small beach, which staff kept tidy and clean on a daily basis. The rooftop pool was a favorite for our grandkids and the views from above of the Placencia harbour are unparalleled. Highly recommend.
