Location

Nestled by the seaside, The Placencia boasts a great location that guests rave about. The property itself is stunning with well-kept gardens and facilities. Although a bit far from the town and its amenities, guests appreciate the peaceful atmosphere that allows them to unwind. Some guests warn about the pitch-black darkness that sets in at sundown, but the resort's serene surroundings make up for it. The fantastic seafront location and beautiful surroundings earn high marks from reviewers, despite the resort's distance from nearby shopping and bars.

Rooms

The Placencia, offers guests comfortable and clean rooms, although some guests noted that they were outdated and in need of renovation. However, some guests also mentioned that the rooms looked recently renovated and were very nice. The beds were comfortable and the showers were clean, although some experienced issues with the shower handles and water leaking onto the floor. The rooms were described as spacious but some guests found them to be a bit small for the price they paid. Despite some reports of dirty bedding and towels, most guests found the rooms to be clean. Some guests also mentioned bugs and roaches in their rooms which could be a result of poor upkeep on the facilities. It was noted that some rooms were dated and had old furniture, TVs with limited channels and walls that were a bit dirty. Additionally, guests reported issues with broken door locks, missing tiles, handles falling off and faucet leaks. The resort's grounds were beautiful but some guests complained about the crumbling stairs, walkways and paths. The hotel's location was also a concern for some guests; some experienced noise from the rooms next door and others had a view of a construction site instead of the beach. Overall, while some guests had complaints about the upkeep and dated rooms, others found their experience to be comfortable and pleasant.

Cleanliness

The Placencia, offers excellent service and cleanliness to its guests. Visitors have praised the resort for keeping their room clean and comfortable throughout their stay. While there have been noted instances of dirt and sand on the floors upon check-in, the majority of the resort remains clean. Some guests have reported finding stains on the bedding and towels, as well as peeling paint on the ceilings. However, the resort's clean and spacious pool has been a highlight for many guests. Additionally, visitors have appreciated the staff's attention to cleanliness and maintenance around the resort, including the need for all personnel to actively maintain the property.

Staff

The Placencia, is a beautiful place to stay in a tranquil environment with lovely and accommodating staff. Guests raved about the great food and the fantastic pool, as well as the friendly and attentive bar staff. While there were some complaints about limited food choices and unprofessional behavior from certain staff members, overall the staff went out of their way to ensure guests had everything they needed. Specific staff members were mentioned by name, such as Travis, Junior, Yassir and Dennis, for their professionalism and pleasantness. The front desk received some negative feedback, but the manager, Kent, was praised for trying to resolve issues that arose during guests' stay. Despite some minor hiccups, guests agreed that the resort's only downfall was that it needed a facelift, but that the friendly staff made up for it.

Pool

The Placencia boasts the best pool in Belize, according to satisfied guests. It offers a large shallow area for kids, making it perfect for families. The pool and premises are beautiful and guests can even access kayaks and paddleboards. The pool bar and friendly staff add to the enjoyable atmosphere. Despite some missing tiles, the pool is clean and great for young kids. Guests remark that they would visit again, just for the pool alone. While the beach may not be great, the free shuttle service is a nice perk. However, it's important to note that there are no activities or shuttles after the pool closes at 8 pm. Some rooms may also need updating, but the overall experience of swimming in the huge, well-designed pool leaves guests satisfied.

Beach

The Placencia, is nestled in a beautiful beach location, but unfortunately, some guests were disappointed with the beach area. Some mentioned that the sand was muddy and sinks easily, making swimming not accessible. However, other guests praised the clean and fantastic beach despite sea grass and occasional jellyfish sightings. Unfortunately, some of them reported that the beach was littered with trash, seaweed and driftwood, which made it dirty and unpleasant to visit. Additionally, some guests noted that the water's ground had some kind of clay that felt disgusting to tread on and visibility was low. Despite these negative comments, the hotel's location and beautiful beach cannot be denied and there are guests who have enjoyed it thoroughly.
