Summary: Bird Island has been a dream vacation for us for a long time. And after years of looking at pictures and reading reviews online, it was almost surreal to step foot on the island for the first time. "I can't believe we're really here" went through my mind several times throughout the week.
The entire experience was amazing! The logistics were smooth, from meetup to shopping to transportation - Leo handled it all in a professional and friendly manner. Fred and Ruth were there to welcome us upon arrival and the hand off went off without a hitch. The island itself is a dream! This is not a five star luxury resort, so don't expect that sort of experience. This is something different - an island getaway where you are isolated, free, and truly at one with the ocean and nature around you. Snorkeling, kayaking, and fishing are second to none. At night the sky lit up with stars in a way that you just don't experience in city life. Of course I have to give a nod to Thurman who gave us an amazing experience and made sure we had enough fish to eat for the whole week!
All in all it was a dream come true, and an adventure that I will treasure for the rest of my life.

Summary: What a fantastic place! Fred, Ruth and Leo are considerate, responsive and accommodating. If you are looking for a place to get away, this is it. You won’t have all the luxuries of high priced resorts, but you will have everything you need for a true island adventure! That is exactly how Bird Island is set up. Leave your cares on the mainland and spend your day snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding or relaxing in a hammock. Do not skip the chance to go fishing with Thurman. In my opinion, it is best to spend a full day on the island before scheduling a fishing trip. It gives you time to get adjusted to your stay. Also, 5 days seemed like the perfect amount of time for us. Not too long that we needed more supplies and not too short that we were not able to enjoy all there was to offer.

Summary: Everything about Bird Island was amazing from start to finish. Fred was great about communicating the itinerary and what was needed to make our stay perfect. His son helped us shop for groceries, transported us and all of our food and gear to the island, and even helped turn in our rental car so we didn't have to pay extra for it to sit parked for the time we were on the island! My two boys (ages 15 and 16) loved to snorkel and explore the area around the island. We fished, relaxed, made delicious meals in the lovely kitchen, and spent the evenings playing cards and board games. They have thought of everything and there is nothing missing from this amazing place. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Summary: After almost two years of planning then two years of pandemic delays we finally got to stay at Bird Island. It was all I expected and more. The location is insanely beautiful. You are located on a pristine reef with tons of marine wildlife. Moray eels, spotted eagle rays, and nurse sharks just to name a few. Kayaking or snorkeling in the calm morning waters to evenings with drinks by the bar area listening to music. Relaxation is what this property is all about. Fred, Ruth, and family were wonderful. Ruth's cooking was insanely good. Leo was a great captain and tour guide on our trip to Silk Caye and Laughing bird. The Monkey river tour should not be missed either (we did this one while staying on the mainland so we wouldn't cut into our time on the island). If Privasea didn't have one of the expeditions we wanted to take Ruth was very helpful in getting a good tour guid who did. If you are hesitant to book this property don't be. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience (maybe twice since we may book again!)

Summary: Super easy, great communication with property manager regarding flight changes and getting in later than expected. They think of everything so you don't have to! Island is just beautiful they give you so many things to do on the island but then offer amazing excursions. We will be back for sure!

Summary: This is our second time to Bird Island. Fred and his team have done amazing updates and additions on the island since our first stay. Fred is a dream to work with and very responsive. His team will work with you on anything you need or could want. Having an affordable remote island with all the amenities you could want paired with your own reef for fishing, lobster, snorkeling or kayaking is beyond explanation. This is and will be a go to destination for us as a family for years to come, cant wait to get back as soon as we can!

Summary: Even though there are so many pictures, videos, and reviews of Bird Island and you are more than certain it's gonna be one of the greatest places you've ever been to, it's still an overwhelming feeling when you actually get there. Euphoria is a word you use a lot while you are there to describe how you feel. From the start, and we were booked months in advance, Fred is right there to answer all your questions every step of the way. Once you are there you feel like you've been friends for a long time. After reading countless 5 star reviews from everyone else's experiences, there's no way you could ever adequately describe it in any different words. What makes it so practical but unique is how it sits on this huge coral reef in 3 feet of water, so it's not like living on a huge house boat where you have to dive into deep water to get wet. If you love the ocean then this is your opportunity to experience it on a totally different level, whether you're the type who loves to swim, snorkel, and kayak in the middle of the sea or if you like lying in a hammock, sitting at the outdoor bar, or just chilling out in one of the many great places to relax, this is the perfect place for either.. Everything about the place has been very well thought out, executed, and maintained. Fred and family take care of every detail for you so try not overthink anything. The village of Placencia is a whole other 5 star review, it's an amazingly quaint little primitive place. Go there for a few days before Bird Island for a wonderful Central American experience. In short, just get it on your bucket list, book it, and go. Thanks Fred, Ruth, Leo, and the rest of the family crew for a wonder time

Summary: Fantastic unique experience! If staying on a tropical private island on a beautiful coral reef is not your bag, then stay away from this place! Fred has done an amazing job making this an idyllic vacation spot with constant improvements and upgrades. We had a great time and can’t wait to come back.
