I travel to Belize freqently. Hotel Placencia is a 4-5 star hotel totally isolated from the real belize. You may as well go to Cancun, and get better beaches.
Belize is a great country but more than half the joy is interracting with the people. At Hotel Placencia this is impossible. The town is about 12 miles away but it takes at LEAST a half hour to get there. In town there are regular live music events, inexpensibe eats and many funky cool bars. None of this exists at Hotel Placencia.
IF you want to stay at your hotel your whole trip and not be bothered with your outside environment, than thisi is the place for you. They have a beautiful pool and yummy margaritas. If you want a more real belize experience, then stay further down the penninsula.
