The Placencia Hotel boasts a sprawling compound and a gorgeous big pool, perfect for unwinding and soaking up the Belizean sun. The staff truly shines here – they’re friendly, helpful, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay. While my overall experience was enjoyable, the restaurant menu could benefit from more variety. With a few more options, it would be even better.

Beautiful property, friendly staff, large pool area great for adults and children, onsite restaurant was a plus. Parking is a good distance from some rooms/buildings. The room was the only thing lacking for our stay. Dated, squeaky bed, dim bathroom lighting, limited space to hold things in room (could be set up better), only two standard pillows on our bed.

The outside grounds were impeccable. Pool area & landscaping were stunning. Rooms were very dated & worn out. Old, giant jet tub & broken tiles in bathroom. Dim, CFL bulbs in lamps. Not 1 single USB outlet in rooms.Large veranda with gorgeous views, but only 2 small, wooden beach chairs to sit in, but it was too hard to get in or out of, so we didn’t sit out there. Breakfast in restaurant was very good. Dinner at outdoor spot was just so-so. Pool staff was great. No shuttle working. Also, a 25 minute drive to village. No walking to village.

Staff was friendly, but the room was very outdated, damaged and poor quality. Also, we had issues with booking thru Expedia. We had booked one additional night, and then the hotel cancelled us without notice because they were “booked” on our last night. But the hotel kept showing availability in Expedia and on their website..

If you are looking for a beautiful, private, quiet beach get away this is the place. The staff was very nice and friendly— truly they were a gem. Stayed during the week and it felt like we had the resort to ourselves, the pool and beach just steps away from our room. The cons: the resort is a bit dated, the food is good but a very limited menu and dinner is overpriced for what you get. The resort is far north of the village so you can’t walk anywhere (too hot), we got taxis to eat at other resorts nearby (~2 miles away) just to get some variety. The shuttle service didn’t really work for us but taxis were easy enough, just schedule your pick-up in advance before you leave.

We loved our stay at The Placencia. Truthfully, I was feeling a bit concerned after we booked and then I read other people’s reviews but I’m so glad that we never cancelled. The grounds were beautiful, the pool was amazing as was the beach and all the meals that we had were lovely. The staff truly went above and beyond and were very welcoming. We didn’t have great success with the WiFi but we didn’t go on vacation to be connected to the internet. Yes, the resort is about 20 minutes from Placencia but we really enjoyed the quietness of this place and we knew going in that it wasn’t right in the village. Best I can figure is that anyone who commented negatively about this place hasn’t done much traveling as if they had they would know this place is amazing. Yes, there is some paint touch ups that could be done but regardless the resort is still wonderful. The staff truly went out of the way to ensure we had a nice stay. The room was very clean as was every area that we saw. We will definitely be back!!

I’m guessing they prioritize their suites more
When I booked through this app they false advertised this resort as all inclusive. Eventually I found out there is an all inclusive option it’s just thousands of dollars more. From the moment I searched ‘all inclusive’ all the way until the moment I booked it kept telling me that I had the all inclusive option…. Get to the hotel, “you didn’t book the all inclusive ma’am that is an additional price”. Get to our room there is a swarm of mosquitos right above our entrance/door (I looked at others’ room and no one else had that problem). When I mentioned it to the front desk associate she recommended I “just keep the door closed”. However, a couple of days later I saw maintenance or whoever spraying someone’s patio area with something for the mosquitos. We originally booked a double queen room, the bed was on wheels, and was moving as well as one of the beds were almost caving in, not to mention the headboard was peeling/ bleeding and staining the pillows… The most beautiful inconvenience of it all was after we had got out the beautiful pool with the dope swim up bar, we went back to the room to shower, as we had dinner reservations in placencia town, and of course there’s not a drop of hot water coming from the shower… This is when we had went to front desk to demand a new room, as that was our last straw… The only room that was available was a suite, and they tried to have us pay the upgrade fee?? For our inconvenience?? Pay more?? Absolutely not, called manager, got suite.

It's showing it's age. The repairs made are basic and obvious, not quality you would expect. The food was subpar for the price. I get that you are paying for the location and ambiance but really need to step up the food quality. Lose all the fried foods, and hire chefs who know how to cook seafood. Ordered the platters and all of it was overcooked and the fish was rubbery.
