There isn't much that we are not impressed wth our 8 days stay at The Placencia. We normally stayed at Sandals and other 5-Star resorts and initially, we thought The Placencia was a bit inferior. It was quickly changed as we grown to love and adore the quaint surrounding, the lush garden and the beautiful beach. Everyone of the staff... More

We arrived for our 4 night stay and were very pleased upon arrival. We checked in and the room was nice and had a great view of the pool. The best part of our stay was over after the first hour or so. We drove from the international airport which is about 3 hours and includes the beautiful Hummingbird Highway.... More

I stayed at the The Placencia Hotel and Residences for two nights. The rooms, the pool and the whole resort is really clean and beautiful. The breakfast on the water is quite fascinating and the beach invites to take a rest. The food seems to be very good, too. But I didn't had a lunch or dinner. Thanks a lot... More

The Placencia hotel is truly a tranquil place with friendly staff and grounds. This is a gated resort with beautiful views with an almost untouched world of Caribbean waters. Took the snorkel trip and Xunantunich tour during our week long stay. Both were incredible experiences. The snorkel trip ventures out to a protected island area in the Caribbean with chances... More

I'm a backpacker at heart so I usually stay in hostels and cheaper accommodation. I went on vacation with my boyfriend of 5 months to Belize and we decided at the end of the week to treat ourselves to some luxury. I've been to Belize 3 times and finding nice accommodation for a good price is hard to find, especially... More

We just returned from our 8 night vacation in Belize, four of which were spent at the Placencia. The grounds are very well maintained along with a fantastic saltwater pool. Our room had a beautiful sea view and the room itself was exceptional. The breakfast buffet on the pier provided a wide variety of delicious food. We ate our remaining... More
