We loved Carolyn's place on the beach and the town of Placencia! The beach is literally steps from the front patio, and we walked all over town to the restuarants and local shops. There is alot to do in the area; we took a sailing and snorkeling excursion, drove to and hiked in the jungle at the Jaguar Reserve , and went caving in the jungle as well. We will definitely return and stay at Coconut Beach!
