Nice pool but run-down room
Our stay at the Placencia was ok. My biggest frustration was not seeing a way to book tours through the hotel in advance of our arrival, only to have the tours be sold out when we arrived. Luckily we found a place in the village able to take us snorkeling on the reef. The room itself was actually pretty comfortable despite being in somewhat rough shape (broken blinds and burnt out light bulbs). The comforter also had some brown stains on it when we arrived, but that was replaced immediately after I reported it so I did appreciate that. The grounds of the resort are beautiful and the pool was perfect, but the food options are really limited and pretty meh. Trying to get to other food options is also difficult since the shuttle only has 1 stop and only goes by there every 3 hours (which is a long time to kill if you're just going into town for a meal).

4/10 Fair

The pictures did not reflect the condition of the rooms and the resort itself. It was run down, not clean, mold in the bathtub, broken and missing window screens. The air conditioning didnt work properly and overall the resort needed a ton deferred maintenance. We would never recommend this place.

For a resort it was meh
The resort is run down like the online pics don’t match what you get. We moved rooms 2 times. The first the room smelled of mold really bad. The second move they moved us to a beautiful room but the ac died after one day. And the temp inside got to 82 before they moved us again. As the ac had to be replaced no one’s fault it’s the Caribbean. The pool is very beautiful and they were in the process of re-tiling the bar. Food is priced in American dollars even though all the other resorts in the area are in Belizean dollars. We felt it was a bit high it was what you’d pay in the states. We also tried ordered room service which they asked if we would come to the restaurant to pick up our order. That they were too busy with other things. Seemed to defeat the purpose of room service. The grounds are very nice and everyone who works there are very friendly. I think we heard the owner was in some kind of law suit with his partner from the last five years. Which explains the disarray of some of the rooms. They are actively making fixes so perhaps it settled. Either way it will probably up to snuff in the next year as they make updates.

Staff were super friendly and helpful. Pier dining was cool. We had fun using the kayaks and paddle boards. Corn hole and volleyball were also available. Resort was advertised as a four star. However the rooms are quite dated and need upgrades.
