Great location, best staff, bad policies
We stayed at the Ellysian for a little over a week in July. The property itself is a nice small boutique hotel and has beautiful grounds. There is also a restaurant on the roof. Our stay had a rough start as maid service let themselves in after the first night, and this wasn’t a big deal as they had just forgotten to leave us a Do Not Disturb sign. They left us a sign a few miniatures after. However, the next morning we we intruded upon again. I double checked and we did hang the Do Not Disturb sign. I went to talk to the front desk and they apologized and said they had notes we were in an excursion and had left the sign up accidentally. While they were correct about the excursion, it had been cancelled due to weather. I don’t know I had to tell the hotel every day what my schedule was. Why not just respect the door sign like other hotels? Otherwise, they should add second locks inside the room door like other hotels. That was no chance of intrusion. We also had to move rooms due to noise from roof restaurant. Final seating is 8pm but guests were up there until after midnight and we had to be up early for excursion. So no uninterrupted sleep for 4/8 nights. Also staff used our shared balcony to run food to other rooms , so no privacy there either. Overall amazing grounds, great front desk staff (special note to them for being so kind), mediocre food, and the best location in southern Belize. But some bad policies on cleaning and restaurant hours really ruined our sleep/trip

Decent beachfront hotel
The location is nice, the hotel is beachfront. Pool is on the smaller side. Staff was accommodating. I wasn't really satisfied with the cleanliness/upkeep of bathroom (there were cracked tiles, stained caulk, and dirty baseboards) but if they did some minor work, it would be nice.

This is hands down the best property in Placencia! All hotel rooms are air conditioned, a huge plus in the hotter months. The staff is PHENOMENAL! Above and beyond. The location is great, the pool and beach access is truly spectacular. It will be the only place we stay in Placencia!

The highlight of this hotel is the staff. The reception personnel were professional, friendly, and went out of their way to help. The evening dining was exceptional--and the person who is in charge of this dining facility is outstanding. He treats everyone like family--and is happy to provide his own suggestions on the menu options (and he is always right!). The food preparation is exceptional. A special shout-out for the bar in the pool area. Certainly, this staff person knows mixology, but more than that, she always has a smile and lets you know that she is there to help. A real asset to the Ellysian!

We really enjoyed our 2 week stay. The property is in a great location. Close to many other restaurants, stores and boutiques. Easy to walk around and explore. Jacqueline and Shinellie at reception were great at handling any issues also Venessa and Justin were very friendly awesome servers at the pool bar. Resort is very clean and the view from the Muna rooftop restaurant was second to none.

This hotel is very modern and clean look on the beach in this area compared to others. Room was very spacious with huge bathroom. Beds were very comfortable in a separate room. Location was perfect and convenient for the restaurants bars and shopping. The rooftop restaurant in this hotel was great for watching the sunset with nice atmosphere. The pool bartender, Vanessa was great! She makes the best blackberry mojito! Must try!

Everyone was genuinely nice and helpful. The front desk ladies had a lot of good recommendations for us and they went above and beyond with the card sent for my friend’s birthday. Our room overlooked the beautiful pool and ocean. I couldn’t ask for a better location in Placencia! I would definitely stay again!

Incredible stay! Fantastic location with very welcoming staff. There were issues with the plumbing in the room reserved but they upgraded us to the Penthouse suite a no extra charge. This room was incredibly beautiful. A couple minor plumbing issues that were quickly rectified. They delivered a personalized note every evening and were extremely responsive. Shadine at the front desk was a very informative and kind human. Thank you for making our time in Placencia so fantastic. Strongly recommend this gem of a hotel.
