Pros:

The location was wonderful, although a bit hard to find cause you have to park a block away and walk in. The staff will come get your luggage tho, so that is nice. The hotel is right on the water with great views. They also allow you to use bikes and kayaks for free which was really nice. Room was well furnished.

Cons:

The restaurant on site was a bit pricey and the food was just so-so. Would have been nice to get instructions for arrival as it was a bit confusing, but not too bad as there are signs if you know where to look.

Comfy and great location for enjoying Placencia
Pros:

Large comfy and clean room with a kitchenette where they provided coffee which was a nice touch. The bathroom was also great with a very powerful and warm shower a real highlight after lots of lukewarm dribbly showers elsewhere on our trip. There was a nice beachside area with chairs to relax. The staff were friendly and collected and dropped us off for our onward journey.

Cons:

No real view from the bedroom as we were at the back of the property.

Quiet. Safe. Chilled. Kind.
Pros:

Clean. Simple. Quiet. Safe. Ocean view.
Alan is kind and helpful - as is his wife - happy for guests to borrow a kayak or a bike.

Cons:

Had to covet the flashing light on the smoke alarm because its a super bright LED!

Comfortable & friendly for the budget traveller. Good vibe.
Pros:

A quiet location while being close to town. The standout for us were the staff! They were fantastic, friendly and also flexible with our dietary restriction. Great water pressure and hot showers were so pleasant after being in the ocean. Also, If you head out to the private pier at night you might see some interesting sea life. It’s great to have access to kayaks and bikes.

Cons:

American football playing on the tv all day took away from our sense of a tropical getaway. Felt a bit uncomfortable with the owners and their party sitting all day in the middle of the restaurant, like they were overseeing the staff.
