Welcome to Lucky Duck Villa! A 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom beachfront estate with private chef included. Lucky Duck Villa is one of the most distinctive properties on the Placencia Peninsula, a 4-story, Gold Standard certified beachfront estate occupying a palatial, gated, heavily landscaped lot with an extraordinary 250 feet of frontage directly on the Caribbean Sea. Featured in the 2022 Hallmark Original Movie "Caribbean Summer," this bright, cheerful, and uniquely charming villa sits tucked behind lush tropical grounds with no close neighbors, offering the ultimate in privacy without sacrificing access to the dining, resorts, and activities that make Maya Beach one of the best addresses on the peninsula. What makes Lucky Duck truly special is its layout and scale. Rather than a single monolithic structure, the property unfolds across multiple levels and distinct spaces that give every member of your group their own private corner of paradise while sharing the spectacular outdoors. Two covered palapas sit directly on the sandy beach, one beside the pool for outdoor dining and lounging, and one at the end of the large private ocean pier where you can soak in the ocean breeze, watch the sunrise, and take in the crystalline Caribbean Sea stretching out in every direction. The Eagles Nest deck on the fourth floor is the crown jewel, a covered rooftop retreat with jaw-dropping panoramic views of the ocean to the east and the lagoon and Maya Mountains to the west, the only place on the peninsula where you can watch the sunrise and the sunset from the same spot. The ground floor master suite is a spacious, open-concept retreat with a king bed, queen sleeper sofa, kitchenette, workspace, and direct patio access to the beach and pool palapa. The second floor features a cozy queen bedroom with its own living room, fully equipped kitchen, and a large private patio. The third-floor master loft has a king bed, private bath, and a patio overlooking the ocean with access to the fourth-floor Eagles Nest deck. Tucked away over the garage is a fully self-contained private apartment with a queen bed, queen sleeper sofa, full kitchen, living room, and private patio with ocean views, perfect for a couple or additional guests who want complete independence. **CHEF SERVICE** Your stay includes complimentary private chef service for stays of 4 nights or more, one full chef day for every two nights stayed. Each chef day includes 3 meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner) prepared fresh for your group. For example: a 6-night stay includes 3 chef days; an 8-night stay includes 4 chef days. You will only need to reimburse the chef directly for the cost of groceries. Nothing is marked up, and the chef will provide you with an invoice, payment instructions, and copies of all receipts. Food costs typically run $45 to $50 per person per day based on the preset menu. Need the chef more often? Additional chef days can be added for $125 per day. Grocery stocking service is also included with your stay. There is a provisions list of basic groceries, snack items and beverages you can fill out if you wish to have those items stocked at the house when you arrive. The chef will purchase your groceries, and you only reimburse the items bought. (+) Want to take it a step further?
