We had a wonderful stay at the Elysian Hotel in Placencia and can’t say enough about how warm and welcoming the staff were. Traveling with young kids can be challenging, but the team here went out of their way to make everything easy and comfortable for our family. From thoughtful help day-to-day to genuine kindness toward our children, it truly made a difference in our trip. Our room was spacious and easily accommodated our family of five, which is not always easy to find. Housekeeping was excellent—our room was always spotless—and the service at the bar was consistently friendly and attentive. Overall, the Elysian felt relaxed, well cared for, and very family-friendly. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend it, especially for families traveling with kids.

We had an absolutely incredible experience at this beachfront hotel. From the moment we arrived, everything felt warm, welcoming, and beautifully taken care of. The views were stunning — waking up to the sound of the ocean and watching the sunset from our balcony was pure magic. We have to give a special shout-out to Jose, who was truly amazing. He went above and beyond to make sure every part of our stay was perfect. Whether it was offering great local recommendations, checking in to ensure we had everything we needed, or just being incredibly friendly and professional, Jose made a huge difference. His genuine hospitality stood out and made us feel right at home. The rest of the staff were just as wonderful — attentive, cheerful, and always ready to help. Our room was spotless, the beds were comfortable, and the amenities were top-notch. We also loved the beachside restaurant; the food was delicious and the atmosphere unmatched. Overall, this hotel exceeded every expectation. Beautiful location, excellent service, and truly memorable moments. We can’t wait to come back!

As ive seen in other reviews, very nice people here. However, the speed of service both at the resutaurant and regarding room cleaning and laundry services are quite slow. We came in summer, slower season. But it took an hour or more for each meal and our laundry took over 12 hours when they had said it would be done by the time we returned that day from an excursion leaving ys without clean laundry at night. Dinner at Muna had only 3 tables yer it took over an hour for our food to come out. 3 employees talked in front of house while we sat for hour straight and then food came out overcooked and it was frustratijng. In the end, the food tassted good but it was 2 hours by the time we left. I would recommend others to go there, as it's one of the nicest places in the area but be prepared to spend some time waiting on services. Our experience may not be the norm.

This is a clean hotel with some upscale amenities. Although the staff was friendly and accommodating. I was very disappointed in our transportation arrangements and poor communication. During our booking, the representative stated they were official booking agents for mya air and would arrange for our transportation from the international airport to the hotel. I provided my international flight information and my travel companion‘s name and the time of our arrival we were told there would be an additional charge which was agreeable. At no time was I made aware that we would not be flying and rather we would be charged $430 for a three hour car ride from the airport to the hotel. We spent about an hour at the Mayan air counter, trying to find our reservation and then another 20 minutes trying to contact the hotel. Additionally, we did not receive any of our VIP upgrades on booking through Expedia as expected. The rooms are not equipped with coffee makers. There’s no coffee in the lobby and the restaurant was not open during our stay. This makes it very difficult if you have any excursions planned and are leaving early.

Dream vacation!

From the warm welcome at the airport pickup, to the friendly and wonderful front desk staff, to the beautifully maintained ground and our very comfortable and classy room this stay was 5 star. Highly recommended and we really enjoyed our stay! Excellent location to find cute coffee shops, little stores and great dining options all steps away. The restaurant on site is also very good and we enjoyed both lunch by the pool and a lovely rooftop breakfast. Can't wait to go back!

We loved our stay. Everything was wonderful from the view to the accommodations. The staff is AMAZING! Vanessa was our favorite as we spent the most time with her. We loved our personalized notes each night as well. The only negative is that the huge balcony only had a small sofa type bench to utilize. Would have loved to have a small table and chairs with a couple lounges.

The Ellysian was a fantastic stay for our family of 4. It is a great location - beachfront and a nice enough deep pool. The staff are exceptional - super friendly and helpful. They really stood out as soooooo nice! The location is great - walk to everything. The room was also very clean and appointed well with plenty of towels, fridge, microwave... even though we brought our own toiletries, my kids loved the hotels shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The restaurant is also quite good. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend!
