Our family stayed on the beach side, in one of the 3 bedroom villas. It was perfect for our family of six. We enjoyed the easy direct beach access, sitting in the hammocks on our porch, and swimming at the two pools. Sargassum is a problem along the entire peninsula, so we didn't swim much in the beach. When we did swim at the beach, the property had paddleboards and kayaks that we got to use. The property overall felt like a tropical oasis. The ambiance at the Laguna restaurant was romantic and family friendly. You'll definitely need a car if you plan to go into Placencia town often. The only negative thing about the property was the main pool needs refurbishing - chipped paint and missing tiles. But I would definitely stay here again!

Great place to stay in Plasencia!

Facilities are super nice, I could park in front of my room and that was a big plus in convinience.... The staff was super helpfull and with the best attitude. The kitchen needs more attention, the food was just average or less not reflecting the price range...

Umaya is a great place to stay if you want to just relax. The food options are limited but they do have a good dinner. The down side is that it is far from the main village of placencia and they only offer two times of free transport otherwise you have to pay. Rooms were clean and spacious…we love how our room was right off the beach and pool.

Beautiful lobby and restaurant area. Great beachfront pool bar. Super, super basic kitchen utensils - spatula and dull knife and incomplete utensils for 4 but plates and cups were ok. Ice tray unfilled and no ice. Room not ready at check in, dirty hallways for 3 days. Would not return, invest in property nor recommend despite the beautiful views and amazing lobby / restaurant area. We were so looking forward to staying but disappointed.
Mystery brown spills on outside pathway and wall. There for 3 days.

I liked the resort overall. The dislike was that they advertise a pool and pool bar, with a small wood fired pizza restaurant by the pool. One evening they closed the bar early around 5:00ish and were closing the pool at 7:30 due to a slower day. Our family had come back from the day excursion looking to hang out the rest of the evening to use the pool and pool bar and eat at the restaurant. One of the things I consider when booking a vacation is pool availability. It was very disappointing. I felt cheated in that I pay for those amenities, and they closed them because they felt there weren't enough people to make it available until their normal close time with no regard for the visitors interested in the pool, pool bar and pizza restaurant.
