Book Hotels in Placencia

What a fantastic honeymoon! Super clean and new villas, really attentive staff, excellent food. The beach is beautiful and there’s a nice pool too (we never used it!). Only suggestions we had were around activities on site. Wish they had a ping pong or pool table, or would have been fun to have the staff organize a sand volleyball game. Easy to use the hotel shuttle to go off resort to restaurants and to town, and also easy to use the free water equipment and bicycles. Such a great resort!! 5 star staff!!!!!

My wife and I adore this place. Small and family-owned/operated. Whatever it lacks in sophistication it makes up for in charm. The first time we drove up Miss V (proprietor) helped us with cab fair unprompted b/c we were too tired to remember we needed it. The tiki bar is stocked and always playing great music. The guest rooms are small but very pretty and rustic in a perfectly cozy beach house kind of way. Miss V, Tracy, Karem and the rest of the guys are all great. Friendly, a *lot* of fun, and they make sure you have everything you want or need. While they don't serve food there it hardly matters; literally 15 paces either way down the beach you have nice restaurants on either side. And there's a general market a minute's walk down the road for whatever supplies you need (seriously they've got everything). And turns out there's a casino just north if you're interested in that sort of thing ;) You’re a little out of the way from Placencia itself, but that's what the golf carts are for! We absolutely recommend Maya Breeze Inn not just because it's awesome, but because it's worth supporting such a fun little place.

The staff of Laru Beya make this resort. They knew our names when we arrived, and introduced themselves to offer to do whatever they could to make our stay effortless, peaceful and fully enjoyable. If you are looking for a wild and crazy beach party with lots of noise, this is probably not the place for you. This was the perfect place for us to enjoy the ocean and pool, and it is also close enough to Placencia to rent a golf cart and go into town. Our room was outstanding, and had everything we needed. The cleaning staff were generally very good about coming in and getting everything tidied up while we were at breakfast at the Quarterdeck. The only exception to that was when we came back a little early while they were decorating our room for my birthday. The extra care that went into that was just over the top! There are other restaurant choices within a golf cart ride, but the Quarterdeck is really the only place you need to go. The other places were fine, but not as personal and the food wasn't any better anyplace else we tried. Having this restaurant on site is a great feature. We liked being at a smaller resort and would certainly come back again. Other things that you need to be aware of when considering Laru Beya is that it is north of Placencia, so you will need transportation to go into town. You CAN drink the water. Transport is to/from the Placencia airfield. Beer means Belikin (very good). And unfortunately you can't take the staff with you. Overall, amazing!

The location is ideal. The rooms are cozy but clean. The thatched roof is a plus. I would stay here again.

The room was decent except the terrible sewer smell from the water the last day that we had to bathe with and brush our teeth. We paid extra for the ocean side , but we found out people we upgraded to the ocean side for free because they were doing renovations which I am sure the hotel knew about when i booked this. The phone in the room never worked. I told atleast 1-2 employees about this daily since I arrived. It was never fixed and therefore we had to walk across the street to the front desk for any questions or problems, booking transportation times, telling them the tv was not working etc. Very inconvenient. There was bad communication on transportation times to go into town and for our airport departures. They seem to have bad communication.
