just returned from an incredible stay at "the Placencia"! a co worker of mine recommended the hotel after having been there twice. my wife and i had never been to belize, but we will certainly be returning! the resort is immaculate and the rooms are large and EXTREMELY well appointed. The food was much better than the food I've experiences... More

My husband and I recently returned from a week at The Placencia with two other couples. It has an absolutely beautiful location being situated on the Caribbean with a lagoon close by. It is a very low key, relaxing vacation - a perfect place to unwind from a stressful work life and reconnect with your spouse. The hotel staff was... More

5 star facilities with modern suites, all ceramic bathroom, floors, cushy beds with duvets and multiple pillows. Not alot of variety of foods, no "trough", but what there was , was prepared to top chef standards. Fantastic staff. Goergous pool. Double wide, 4" thick vinyl padded lounge chairs to die for!! Small crowd (max 140) so we met and sociallized... More

My husband and I traveled to Belize during "dead week," the week after New Years. It's not dead in Belize this time of year. It is still high season for travel in Belize. The weather was perfect and The Placencia Hotel remains busy due to a contract they have with a Canadian package deal, delivering new customers every Wednesday. We... More

I recently stayed at the Placencia Hotel and Residences. I was with my 15 year old son, and we traveled with an all inclusive group. My son is a vegetarian, as am I. I have to say that the Chef Peter went out of his way to accommodate our needs. The menu for vegetarians is very extensive. The only requirement... More

This is a small, intimate, quiet setting that is first class all the way. I upgraded to an oceanview room and had an... More

We just returned from a 2 week stay at this hotel and residence. We have to rave about the staff; every last person that we met was just amazing. They were really great to us and to everyone else. They work incredibly long hours at the restaurant/buffet/pool etc. they really deserved more tips than we could afford. Our suite was... More

As other reviews have indicated, the trip itself is a bit of a long haul (our flight left at 6 am and we arrived after 3pm - 2pm local time) The puddle jumper plane was a bit of a shock being so small, but the views were breathtaking! The resort is located about 25 minutes outside of the nearest town... More

The Placencia hotel is very nice place to stay in Belize. The trees, flower and garden are beautiful. The Staff is super friendly, and give excellent service. The staff is very accommodating and pleasant considering I seen some of the staff for breakfast and the same staff at the end of the day...I think they work long hours and still... More
