This was our first trip to Belize, and this was the perfect spot to call home while we visited Placencia. For starters, you couldn’t ask for better hosts! Jacki, Kennedy, and Blue are warm and welcoming people who each made us feel comfortable and taken care of while touring the area. Kennedy gave us an excellent introduction to the town, pointed us towards some solid restaurants (based on his recommendation we never had a bad meal), and made sure we found the right spot to launch the kayak. Thanks to Blue, the bicycles were well-tuned and provided a memorable way to explore the backroads and neighborhoods of the peninsula.
As far as the accommodations go, the studio suite is very clean and the Casa Placencia grounds and gardens are well tended and beautiful. We liked being in walking distance from everything in town but away from the noise of the bars. The kitchen is well appointed, the shower is hot, and the bed is very comfortable. The next time we visit Placencia, this is where we’ll stay.
