Beachside Villas #23 was exactly what we were looking for for our stay in Placencia. We were halfway between Southern Hwy and end of Placencia, so it made it easier getting out to explore Belize. The condo was exactly as pictured; it was very clean and had a gorgeous oceanfront view. The only difference was that there was not much of a beach to sit on due to erosion; that just comes with any beach. The pool deck and pier were both fabulous places to hang out, listen to the waves and have a drink after a long day of hiking and exploring.
It was nice to be just out of the hustle of ‘downtown’ Placencia, but close enough to drive 10min for a fabulous dinner. There were also plenty of restaurants within walking distance and a Publics grocery store and gas station a 2 min drive away.
The kitchenette was stocked with a 4-cup coffee maker with reusable filter, pots, pans, plates, bowls, and cups. It was nice to have the flexibility to make our own breakfast in the morning and enjoy a cup of coffee. Be sure to bring Ziploc baggies though as there are tiny sugar ants that like to find their way in 😉
Pamela served as our concierge and was a great help in planning our hikes, dives, and overall explorations in Belize.
We would definitely stay at Beachside Villas again if we come back to Placencia!
