Ms Jacki is a truly unique, funny, wonderful woman! She has past as a baker so do not be surprised if she brings you fresh baked goods! We had coffee cake along with bread pudding from the coffee cake and it was seriously the best coffee cake we have ever had. Talk about a surprise plus! The night we got in it was late and by bus and she new exactly what time our bus would be arriving and told us it stopped right in from of Casa Placencia, and when it did she was there waiting for us. The studio is incredible. So beautiful and so much storage space on the beautiful tile shelves; I could've unpacked and stayed forever! The side enclosed patio is wonderful, we spent a lot of time out there, eating and playing games. Perfect for a rainy day. The studio has everything you need to feel right at home. Bikes are provided and it is only a 4 minutes bike right and you're in the middle town. Also provides are kayaks and tubes! She was two guys working for her, Kennedy and Blue, and they are so helpful and nice as well! Such a great experience here during our 5 days. Placencia is amazing and Casa Placencia will definitely be where we stay when we go back!! (And we will be back next year for sure!) :)
