I wasn't expecting a top level resort at Placencia, as its a bit more laid back than other places even in laid-back Belize. I was traveling with a group of divers (12) from the Seattle area planning on daily dive trips from the dive charter Splash and basically just needed a place to sleep and get some food in the...

We stayed at the offsite condo at Sunset Point. The folks from Paradise picked us up from the airport and Maria was more than helpful and Shannon was a great help from the email correspondence to the check in. The condo was nice, two bedroom and two baths. The beds were not that comfortable and the curtains where thin so... More

The staff were absolutely outstanding. The rooms were clean and nice, but small. We peeked at the oceanfront rooms and they are very nice. Free internet, use of bicycles and kayaks were nice bonuses. It is very quiet in that part of Placencia. The restaurant was very good and almost too convenient(we would eat there instead of trying new places).... More

We stayed 3 nights at Paradise on a recent trip to Belize. While our rooms were small (we were on a budget), they were very clean and nice. We did get a glimpse into some other rooms which were larger and they were even nicer! My favorite part about staying here was the staff. Every single person we encountered was... More

We stayed at Paradise Hotel for a week while on a scuba diving vacation. When we arrived at the Placencia airstrip, we were met by Maria, who drove us to the hotel. She stopped at the dive operation on the way so that we could check in and finalize our dive itinerary for the upcoming week. Upon arrival, she took... More

We booked this place on a deal from Trip Advisor, so we knew we were going for the inexpensive trip. We were met at the airport by the owner, Alan who is the kindest man and very friendly. We took both a truck, and then golf cart to the "resort". It's tucked away on the Placencia Harbor, not the direct... More

We booked into the Paradise fore 4 nights. We were greeted at the airport by Sheldon, who was great to us during our stay. At the front desk we met Maslee(?) who checked us in. During our stay she was friendly and helpful. Our room, though moderately priced at $89US, had a very poor bed and pillow. The bed is... More

We had not planned on staying here on our two week trip to Belize, but it had an opening on one of our unplanned nights and few other places did. We gave it a try. Sooo glad we did. It is not the fanciest place in the world, but no where we stayed in the country is and this place... More

This quirky little hotel was perfect for exploring Placencia. Set a couple of blocks offf main street it is quiet and away from action but only minutes away. It is right on the water so there was always a cool breeze blowing while we sat in their restaurant/gathering place for plenty of good food and visiting with new friends. The... More

The first room we were given was on the first floor, which was certainly more convenient for carrying luggage around. The layout of the room was also much better for moving around the room without being crowded, having 2 double beds . For some reason which we didn't fully understand, we were moved into a different room on the second... More
