Sunwing assured me that our vacation would be just that A Vacation. During our first morning briefing with the Sunwing Rep we were introduced to the staff and Dave Smithers (Not officially associated with the Placencia as he lives in the gated community across the street yet he is always on property trying to get people to buy property) With...

My boyfriend and I just returned from a week at the Placencia Hotel. Overall I would say that this resort was everything we were looking for with a few small undesirables. PROs - The pool is phenomenal. We have never really been pool people at all inclusive resorts and usually find ourselves between the beach and the ocean for most... More

My husband and I recently returned from a week at The Placencia with two other couples. It has an absolutely beautiful location being situated on the Caribbean with a lagoon close by. It is a very low key, relaxing vacation - a perfect place to unwind from a stressful work life and reconnect with your spouse. The hotel staff was... More

5 star facilities with modern suites, all ceramic bathroom, floors, cushy beds with duvets and multiple pillows. Not alot of variety of foods, no "trough", but what there was , was prepared to top chef standards. Fantastic staff. Goergous pool. Double wide, 4" thick vinyl padded lounge chairs to die for!! Small crowd (max 140) so we met and sociallized... More

My husband and I traveled to Belize during "dead week," the week after New Years. It's not dead in Belize this time of year. It is still high season for travel in Belize. The weather was perfect and The Placencia Hotel remains busy due to a contract they have with a Canadian package deal, delivering new customers every Wednesday. We... More

I would like to thank this guest for considering us for a return trip. Unfortunately all our suites have different owners and as such they do not allow cooking in them neither do we allow smoking in the rooms. I and all my staff will look forward to you and your entire family for your return trip. More

I recently stayed at the Placencia Hotel and Residences. I was with my 15 year old son, and we traveled with an all inclusive group. My son is a vegetarian, as am I. I have to say that the Chef Peter went out of his way to accommodate our needs. The menu for vegetarians is very extensive. The only requirement... More

Belize has always been on my bucket list and I certainly was not let down staying at the Placencia Hotel and Residences. I stayed there for the week of December 12th to the 19th and travelled alone. This is a small, intimate, quiet setting that is first class all the way. I upgraded to an oceanview room and had an... More

We just returned from a 2 week stay at this hotel and residence. We have to rave about the staff; every last person that we met was just amazing. They were really great to us and to everyone else. They work incredibly long hours at the restaurant/buffet/pool etc. they really deserved more tips than we could afford. Our suite was... More

It sure is a pleasure knowing that you enjoyed your visit to Placencia. I see you really enjoyed most all of our trips and got to see both inland and the sea. The Management and Staff would like to give our sincere gratitude for having taken out some of your time to fill out your comments. More

As other reviews have indicated, the trip itself is a bit of a long haul (our flight left at 6 am and we arrived after 3pm - 2pm local time) The puddle jumper plane was a bit of a shock being so small, but the views were breathtaking! The resort is located about 25 minutes outside of the nearest town... More
