Marly's Place was perfect for our family of 4. Not too big and not too small and Maya Beach is a pleasant, quiet place. Having a pool and being right on the water was great as we could go for a dip in the cool pool whenever we wanted (especially on account of the seaweed accumulation) and were treated to great breezes from the ocean. The house was convenient and we could walk to grocery stores to stock the house or to great dining. We particularly enjoyed Mango's just up the street. Singing Sands Inn just south has a nice restaurant and rental kayaks. If you have a car, it's only 15-20 min to Placencia Village with more dining, banking (read ATMs), dive shops, etc. Host Melissa was professional and responsive and the house clean and well-appointed.
