Placencia
The negative first. This property is NOT where VRBO shows it is on the map. I had picked this spot due to its proximity to the Placencia village. The real location is closer to Maya Beach at the north portion of the peninsula. Having said that, the actual house we stayed at was worth the mix up
The positive; house was beautiful. It was very clean, large, modern and functional. It had everything we needed including an outdoor pool. It’s located at the residences, right across the road from the placencia resort and thus were afforded all resort amenities including a gorgeous pool with swim up bar right on the beach. The beach itself was fine, there was seaweed and while we were there the water wasn’t clear but there are likely times of the year when it could be. There is a beautiful restaurant at the end of a pier that many enjoyed. We found it a bit expensive for what you get but the atmosphere was gorgeous.
Close to our place is the village of maya beach and our favorite restaurant the Bistro was there. Affordable, wonderful food and service, especially from Kenisha, and the peanut brittle ice cream cake was to die for. It also has a grocery store and gas station and ATM.
In Placencia village we at at Ricks which was very good and the Cozy Corner which had wonderful authentic Belizean food. Our property manager was always available and very helpful and our VRBO hosts were super responsive and easy to work with. We had great support
