This property is fantastic! Communication with the hosts and local property manager was great. They helped us with getting a golf cart rented for the week, transportation (to and from airport) organized, restaurant recommendations and any other "local" questions answered. The property is right on the Placencia Sidewalk and only a 5-10 minute walk to most restaurants, shops, supermarkets, banks, etc. The sargassum was pretty bad while we were there. There is nothing the hosts could do to really help this (most everywhere is affected). I only mention it because the property is right on the beach and if you are really looking forward to lounging in the ocean, you might be disappointed. You can still layout on the provided beach chairs and hammocks (very nice), but walking into the ocean is a bit more cumbersome. That being said, the Placencia Beach Club is just around the corner and has a great pool with a swim up bar and plenty of room to lay out.
