Placencia Resort

This is a delightful place. Its right on the beach and has a terrific pool with waterfall and swings! Cocktails and food are lovely and well priced. Some of the room was a bit tired looking but to be expected in a coastal resort. I would stay here again for sure!

Property is beautiful, well maintained.

Staff was friendly, but the room was very outdated, damaged and poor quality.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..

Old furniture!very old! Broken…. Room with a view at abandoned building….( unbelievable!!!)they try to still money over tour…. 5 time the price that everybody ask… we have realy discussed to reduce the price… Bad bad experience…. Even a cup of coffee…. !!!!

Just the swimming pool… day time… after the sunset.. they don’t have light!!!! Unbelievable!!! Total darkness

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.

Beautiful Hotel. Will definitely stay here next time!

It’s a nice property, and there is some nice sand, but the beachfront is not at all inviting for swimming

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!!
