The physical resort was phenomenal. The two reasons I did not give it a five star were 1) that the water pressure in the showers were so low. I never felt clean and could not wash my hair properly, and 2) the hotel restaurant was more expensive than the local restaurants. The days we didn't prepare food in our kitchen, we had to leave the resort. If the prices had been comparable, we would have eaten at the resort more often. The food was delicious, just astronomically expensive. Everything else about the resort was amazing and the staff were so incredibly nice.

Lovely, and missing a few things

We truly enjoyed our week at the Placencia resort. The 3 bedroom suite was just right for our multi-generational family trip, the pool was fabulous fun, and the Pier restaurant is peaceful, beautiful, and serves delicious food. I was disappointed to discover that, for what-ever reason, many of the promised amenities that had us choose this resort were not available during our time there: For example, there is only 1 restaurant, there is little that's child friendly asidefrom the pool; the pool and the children's pool are the same thing, meaning our 5 yo had to swim around loud mouthed drunks in the afternoon, if there were laundry facilities we never found them, and the only water sport equipment was available. Its clear the resort is being updated, but the work motto seems to be "it looks okay if you don't get too close." Lovely, bright rooms and ancient lumpy futons to sit on; nicely tiled bathroom and grubby stained bathtub. Etc. I would recommend the Placencia, and I would go back there. I justthink people should be fore-warned that the marketing exceeds the reality.

When we checked in, we were asked to pay a 40 US resort fee that we were not aware of when I booked so that was a sudden surprise. The prices at the restaurant were quite high. The beds were not the greatest. They were on wheels so they moved a lot.. but the pool was amazing. The water was warm. The staff was friendly and kind not usually the kind of place I stay, but I would go back for the pool.

The property is beautiful and the staff was very accommodating but it did not engulf the Belizean culture as I expected it would. The menu did not incorporate the traditional culture or have more than one Belizean option. Most of it was American food. There should be more of the culture and more things to do on the resort outside of the pool/dining. I wish there was more activities at the resort instead of trying to entertain myself most of the time. It was relaxing but I’d like to have fun on vacation too and creating that fun in an unknown area is difficult. I wish there were more food options for me to get to know the areas best things about it. More activities like a food tour provided by the resort like yoga just a celebration of the culture and that was not it.

For getting this hotel at a “VIP access” was nothing but a lie! The hotel was expensive, the room smelled musty, there was food marks left on the counters, the bathroom floor had bits of toilet paper left, the toilet seat was left open, the extra mirror light didn’t work, there was a broken towel rack pieces left over, one of the head lights were dangling out, our bed headboard was broken, the lamp was broken, and most importantly there reusable water tanks were always empty. When I told this to the front desk, they didn’t do anything. So I was just simply very disappointed for the cost for this resort and wish I would’ve gave my money to the local hotels.

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.
