Placencia Peninsula Apart Hotels

"Wonderful stay at the Brisa! The rooms are thoughtfully designed with quality finishings (hardwood and natural stone throughout) and the staff were incredibly helpful with suggestions of what to do and arranging transport. The resort is perfectly located in the heart of Placencia but doesn't feel crowded. The beachfront itself is well-maintained and there are free kayaks and bikes to use as well. Highly recommended! "

"My stay was amazing. The staff was wonderful. And the location was ideal for anyone who wants to immerse themselves into the local culture. "

"Mariposa is a hidden gem. It’s quiet, spacious, and welcoming. It’s super conveniently located- the Placencia airport is about a 1/2 mile away, and the Village is about a 3 min golf cart drive. It would be a long walk. There are several markets to buy snacks and drinks in the Village, as well as great restaurants. Our room was not a treehouse and was in a sub-par location/ up stairs and behind a wall- it did not overlook the pool, beach, or jungle, but provided a nice escape after days of diving. Rooms are well stocked with towels, soaps, linens, mini-bar, etc and the AC worked great. The food was good- we mostly ate breakfasts. The bar offered espresso, as well as a variety of spectacular cocktails. They infuse rum with several different types of flavors- pineapple, habanero, ginger, etc- and make beverages to suit all tastes. Gladis is amazing! We had a couples massage in our room, which the GM, George, organized for us. All in all- I would choose to stay here again!"

"Splurged on what seemed best waterfront 2 br online. Wish I hadn’t. Old, run down, torn furniture, bugs EVERYWHERE. oddly expensive w beer and food more than twice other resorts visited the week prior. Charged ungodly amounts t for teenagers to rent each item needed for tennis and pickleball. The airport shuttle is effectively the only useful or valued amenity. Staff were friendly but whomever sets prices and decides where to invest resources is doing awful job. Frequent family visitors like us will spread word and soon customer base will dry up. Much nicer places down road are also cheaper and cleaner and more plausibly walkable to at least a couple eats. Never again. Can’t believe we paid so much for crummy night. "

"This resort was amazing from the staff, who accommodated me and my wife very well, the room, the views, the food. There were plenty to do from swimming in the pool or the beach, which was literally a step off my balcony, to snorkeling, fishing, paddle boarding, kayaking, and pickleball etc. The resort is on its own lisland however they have boards to get from the island to the village on demand. This resortbis luxury and relaxation at its finest. I booked the spacious king and I'm telling you it's beautiful and luxurious and you will not be disappointed. Just a few things to be aware of is room service was not 24/7 with a cutoff time of between 9-10pm. The food menu was a bit limited in my opinion however staff will try to accommodate your requests as much as possible. Also, there's a service charge at the end of stay which is gratuity for staff which I payed around $182USD for a 5-6 day stay. I will definitely stay at this resort again. "

"Very nice resort amazing beach and fantastic pool"

"House on the beach was great, great location, parking was easy. Nice and private. Only strange thing was second “full” bathroom didn’t have a shower"

"The reality of this property is even better than pictures and description offer. The beachfront is truly lovely and the grounds are very well maintained. It seemed that all of the people working at the resort really enjoyed their jobs, and they were all so eager to help and make our stay excellent. I thought it would be awkward to share common spaces with others, but the shared areas were large and well distributed for groups, and the private rooms offer all the privacy we needed. These villas are such a gem!"

"First and foremost, let me say that overall this place is excellent. You will not regret staying here as it's beautiful.That being said, here are the things you need to know if you're considering booking this home:- Home is 30 minutes from Placencia by car. Book a rental car (NOT a golf cart) if you plan on spending a lot of time in or out of town (Leo). 40-50 mins to town by golf cart, 1 way.- Leo and Christine are awesome and can hook you up with almost anything you're looking for. Lean on their expertise and guidance in preparing for and during your trip.- Rooftop patio and outdoor balcony eating area are legit. Most of our meals were spent there enjoying the sound of the ocean and scenery. That being said, the stairs to the rooftop are narrow and somewhat treacherous. We made a "one drink" rule for up there.- Beach is well-maintained and good for sunbathing and recreation of all kinds. Sandy bottom with some turtle grass that's soft on your feet.- Had no problem brushing teeth or washing dishes, food, or anything else in tap water. No digestive issues.- Songbirds and sunrise will wake up whoever is sleeping in the master bedroom at 5:30 am every morning.- Pool was clean but much too cold to enjoy comfortably for any length of time. High of 82 F while we were there.- Placencia is not built up, however there are enough tourists here that infrastructure exists to accommodate you as a guest. Good balance of local culture and modern conveniences.Enjoy!!"
