Placencia is a peaceful, sleepy fishing town on a beautiful stretch of unspoiled coastline.
While Placencia is further away from the coral reefs near Ambergris Caye, it is a rather undervalued area that is yet to be overrun with developments. Expect pristine beaches, a handful of charming hotels, and a relaxed atmosphere – perfect for a luxurious beach holiday or a honeymoon.
Placencia might be a tranquil hideaway, but it doesn’t shy away from offering an authentic Belizean experience, with wonderful local culture and great food.
Francis Ford Coppola has a retreat here called the Turtle Inn, where a “toes-in-the-sand” ambiance is accompanied by some serious luxuries.
Here, you can expect a Balinese spa, sensational Italian cuisine, an adult-only pool promising peace and quiet, as well as an on-site dive shop. The hotel also owns a small island offshore, where you can spend time in complete privacy with a dedicated team on hand.
Needless to say, we highly recommend Turtle Inn for a few days of beach bliss. For utter relaxation, romantic touches on unforgettable honeymoon, or simply a luxury vacation to Belize, Placencia is the place — let us take you there!
Field Notes
