I have been coming here for several years and it is a great property that is very poorly managed at the top levels. Things have broken and not replaced. The rooms are tired and needing upgrades. I know they are slowly working on making thing better, but talk is cheap. The restaurant on the pier is new, but way over priced for Belize. The people who work at the resort are fabulous. Friendly and eager to help with anything. It is the management that is bad. From the owner down. I would not recommend staying here until all renovations are done. Only then will I come back.

The grounds of the property were very beautiful and well kept. The iguanas were an added bonus as they were always hanging out in the tree to watch. It is right on the water and the beach was really nice. Beautiful sand and well groomed. However, there were tons of bugs and the bites made it almost impossible to lay in the beach chair. The rooms were older and there was a lot of mold in shower and bathroom area. The kitchen was missing some key items for cooking like a skillet and mixing bowl. The stove did not work and we called to get it fixed but no one came for the 6 days we were there. House keeping was not very good either. Some days very minimal cleaning was done, like emptying the trash but not replacing the trash bags. Two of the days house keeping was really good. We were there over Christmas so maybe they had a lot of staff off for the holiday. The restaurants were a big disappointment. There are not three of them. The is a pool bar where you can get drinks, a main restaurant which was often closed for dinner and when they were open they had few options because “that is not available today” and the third restaurant was alway open but had limited options because they were often out of stuff and they were more expensive than any other restaurant we went to. We ended up leaving the resort most days for dinner. There are some good restaurants not too far but you will need a car. Overall we were happy with the beach but the restaurants were a challenge.

I enjoyed my stay at the placencia... there was some confusion on my part since the hotel changed management. My partner problem is the issue with the hot water. We expected it to come on after a while however it did not. I like that there is a security guard and when we come in late from tours but they double checked that we live at the resort. I love the pier and the staff were friendly answering all our questions. Thank you for a great stay.

Very nice, but many improvements could be made.

We had a very nice stay here. Their grounds were well kept and the staff were lovely. The room was also very nice and spacious, and we even got an ocean front view. I will say that the rooms need some maintenance. The towel racks and toilet paper holders were falling off the walls and the bathroom sink had a persistent drip. The tv’s in the room are also a joke, maybe 26” tvs at most, minor complaints but something they should consider looking into. We paid half price and had I paid the usual nightly rate, I would’ve been disappointed. Their food and excursions are also very overpriced. They were charging 38 times the entry fee per person for a day excursion to the closest Mayan ruins, NIM LI PUNIT. We drove there in 50 mins ourselves and paid the basic entry fee to see them, no tour guide but all the interpretative signs were in English so we didn’t miss out on much and save A LOT of money by not doing their excursion. In a nut shell, the grounds, pool and staff were all first rate, room was good but not great, but their excursions are extortion.
