8/10 Very good

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).
