    Lupita (House Keeper) and Carlos (Grounds keeper) were both top notch. They were on top of all our needs and wishes. They went above and beyond to make it our best vacation to date. Plascencia and the Lucky Duck Villa are a beautiful and amazing experience. The people are all very nice and inviting. The cost of living is fair and all excursions with Captain Jak's were amazing and quite safe. We celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary during our stay and Lupita and Carlos made the day quite memorable. They found a Priest to perform the renewal of vows ceremony and decorated the beach and our rooms for the occasion. The price we paid for the Villa was well worth the memories we have. Many thanks to Lupita and Carlos, we will go back because of the two of you.

    Our Nov 2024 stay at Lucky Duck Villas was absolutely phenomenal!! We couldn't have loved it more. The property is stunning, immaculately maintained, and the perfect getaway for a large group. We had a blast swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding, kayaking, playing in the pool, relaxing in hammocks, and taking the golf carts to delicious local restaurants. Lupita and Carlos are the sweetest caretakers and they tended to our every need. They even set up a birthday surprise for one of our guests, it was so special Chef Julia cooked for us for 3 of the days and that was the best decision ever. The food was fabulous and being able to enjoy our meals at the Villa was so awesome. We are already planning our trip back to Lucky Duck and Maya Beach. This area is truly a dream come true and we can't wait to return.
