We spent a lovely 5 nights in the Angelfish apartment, which was well appointed and super comfy. The kitchenette was convenient (we had a few lunches and breakfasts there), the screened in porch a lovely spot to sit and hear the bird call, and the bedroom nice and cool thanks to the A/C unit and curtains. Lacey and Ron were gracious and helpful hosts, answering our many questions and making local recs. Great access to swimming, Momo’s (street food), and Greg’s fruit stand - where YES you want to buy the yogurt. Only downside was not staying longer!

We stayed in the Gecko Studio, a ground floor so reduced privacy and it is basic accommodation with limited amenities, (kitchenware)but some of the larger units were much nicer. It is a small space and no dresser so we lived out of suitcases. A very sociable setting as you can sit outside in the courtyard and visit with neighbours. They have bikes, paddle boards, beach chairs and a kayak for use. The hosts are very sociable and responsive to needs/requests. Location is central to everything!

This is a fantastic boutique hotel with the best tropical vibe and an attention to detail for a great stay. Ice cold AC, large units with everything you need for space, cooking, etc. The owners and manager will definitely take good care of you making sure you have anything you need from extra hotel amenities, dinner reservations, help booking tours, you name it.

I adore these people! This place is literally owned by a mom and pop, Ron and Lacy. They are awesome and hired an awesome employee named Odaliis. We couldn’t have been happier with the cute room, air conditioning, and location. We honestly were treated like family. They really didn’t have to go out of their way, but they did to make her stay as comfortable as possible. We had a great time with some of their guests that were staying there. As I said, the location is fabulous, close to shopping, the pier, bars, RESTAURANTS, and grocery stores. I can’t wait to return. I WOULD RECOMMEND

Placencia Villas was a very comfortable place to stay! The location is amazing- very close to shops, bars, and the beach. The villas felt private and safe. Odalis, the concierge, was very helpful and kind.

This is a small family owned motel/hotel in a small port town. The room was simple and very clean, and we enjoyed having a kitchenette. (Note that not all rooms have a full-size kitchen.) There was a small fridge, gas burnes, microwave, and a small amount of dishes, pans, and cultery We were able to make all our breakfasts and serveral dinners there, though there were odd gaps -- only two spoons, one teaspoon and one tablespoon. The manager at the office was extremely helpful. This is a seaside town. I asked about buying fresh fish. No fish market, but she advised me to go to the public harbor (about 1-2 blocks away) between 4 and 5. [Note that this time may vary seaononally.] Boats that had taken tourists out fishing, and if they were successful they could not eat it all. So there was a huge cutting table, and fishmongers with aprons and sharp knives were cutting and bagging the fresh fish (tossing the innards to waiting pelicans) at the shore. Getting a pound or two of very fresh fish to cook in our room was not expensive. There is a fruit and vegetable stand a block or less away from the logding, and several supermarkets (which are not like North American supermarkets-- far more focus on canned and dry goods than fresh.) Restaurants and a laundry (where you can drop off clothes) are nearby as well, and an excellent gelato stand. This is a tourist area -- one night only we heard a loud nearby band until after 11 PM. We were glad to have air condiioning and used it at night even though it was Feb. The manager was also great about arranging with a local agent a tour to Monkey River (a 40 min boat ride accross the ocean) which was a highlight for us. Cost was modest for a pleasant stay (we paid less than US $400 with tax for four nights). Note that as a small family-run facitly, there is not a 24-hr desk, and the office was closed on Sunday, though a phone number was posted. There is a very nearby ATM on the main road, but it is hard to find as it is on the porch of a liquor store, and looks like a phone booth with no large sign saying "ATM."

This place is terrific! Not right on the beach but real close and probably quieter than places that are. Had a cabin with a porch, outfitted with furnishings and a full kitchen all to myself. Staff super nice. Only real minor downside was that there was some fruit or nut tree that kept dropping its fruits or nuts on the roof all night (especially when it was windy). I would recommend asking for the purple cabin. Seemed like possibly the nicest spot in the whole compound.

We stayed in the Turtle Apt for three nights. Wow this place was great! We got there late on New Years Eve and Odalis had our room ready even though we were five hours later than we expected. The room is basic. It contains a stove, fridge, and some basic necessities. There are two bedrooms, one with AC and one without. There are fans everywhere. At this time of the year we didn’t need the AC anyway. The grounds are very clean and you are just steps from the beach and to the coffee shops, restaurants and gift shops if that interests you. I recommend Placencia Villas for your stay.

We stayed in the Manatee for 2 months during a house-hunting visit to Placencia. We fell in love with the village and had an amazing stay at the villas. The staff is excellent and very friendly, and we were very well taken care of for our entire stay. While the property is not directly on the sand, it is a short 100-yard walk to Placencia's nicest beach. You are within walking distance of shopping, restaurants, bars, and nightlife while staying at the villas. Since all the rooms have kitchenettes or full kitchens, you can always stay in if that's your mood. The bbq grills, kayaks, and bikes they provide are a huge plus for enjoying the village as well.

Placencia Villas was a comfortable and cozy home away from home for us and our two young sons. The staff and management were so accommodating and helpful. The location could not be better making it easy to go out for meals, get our laundry done and spend time at the beach. When there was the threat of a tropical storm the owners and staff made us feel safe and well taken care of. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and the A/C was excellent. Would highly recommend this accommodation!
