Like the other traveler said, this place is dated to the 70's... We loved the location! Loved the tiny town of Placencia with its end of the road vibe. Main street is just a wooden boardwalk running through the middle of all these ramshackle stores and homes. The snorkeling tour was great... The lodge itself needs updating and I don't... more

We were booked in for several nights and we checked out before we even stayed 1 night! The place is shabby - nothing like the website. The room had big holes in the bathroom for anything to crawl in and there were no curtains at all in the room! The 'main house' was very run down and had dogs running... more

This was our 2nd trip to Placencia, Belize and on our first trip we stayed at The Turtle Inn so we had expected Rum Point to be about the same. The two are totally different but great in different ways. The staff at Rum Point made us feel so welcome and went out of their way to make sure our... more

My stay at Rum Point was the best holiday I have ever had! The beautiful location, the beach, the activites, the friendly staff - all of it working together making it so very special. It is truly a slice of paradise! I have travelled all over the world but this was really something else. The two negative comments before really... more

When desperate to find a place in Placencia for the Christmas holidays, I mistakenly booked 5 nights at Rum Point. I felt the price was high (270.oo U.S.)but was comparing it to the nearby Turtle Inn, a luxury resort. We had centipedes and mouse droppings in the bed, and a scorpion each night in the bathroom. I know it is... more

We were very excited for our vacation to Belize and our stay at Rum point. We had booked eight nights and were willing to pay extra for the luxury accomodations that we were expecting. However, once we arrived at Rum Point we were quite disappointed. The place was totally neglected and run down. During our stay, we heard that Rum... more

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at Rum Point Inn immensely. We traveled on the "off" season simply because of the timing of our wedding. The grounds are less than 1/2 mile from the airport. We were immediately greeted by the pleasant staff. I'd like to add after reviewing a couple of negative reviews that those folks must be... more

We just returned from another wonderful trip to Placencia! Our favorite place to stay is Rum Point Inn! What makes it so special to us is the staff and the warm and friendly way they make you feel so welcome! From the minute we arrive...greeted with smiles and an eagerness to make our visit more than just comfortable, their effort... more

I looked through this website expecting to find wonderful reviews for Rum Point Inn, mirroring the experience that myself and my family had while we were there this winter. Unfortunately, I was surprised to find that there were only two reviews, both uncomplimentary! I felt I absolutely must offer my perspective to counter their negativity. My family spent a week... more

I'd seen a few mixed reviews of RPI, but we booked a last-minute trip over the holidays and when they had one room left we decided to take it. This is one of the oldest resorts in Placencia and it definitely seems to be resting on its past reputation. It doesn't look like they've put much into maintenance since the... more
