Independent in Placencia from NZ$178

"Everything about this hotel was terrific. The service was excellent, the shared kitchen, living room and patio were spacious and spotless. The wifi was fast. Every meal we had at the restaurant was delicious. Highly recommend the lobster and the rum punch. The pool just steps outside our room was private (just for the villa) so never crowded and always convenient. We had a beautiful view of the beach while working or just chilling."

"The bungalow where we stayed (Marlin) was spotless and accommodated two adult couples perfectly. We enjoyed the outside seating area. The resort is small and peaceful with a gorgeous beach. Due to the time we went, it was not crowded at all and the staff could not do enough for us. The food was excellent at both the pool area and the restaurant across the street. This is a serene and quiet resort. If you are looking for tons to do and lots of activity, this is not the place for you but if you are looking for paradise with warm turquoise waters and some water activities like kayaking, snorkeling and SUPs, this is perfect. I can't wait to go back. Only negatives are the sandflies and the chaotic airport in Belize City. Bring bugspray and anti-itch meds in case you are sensitive (seemed to only apply to the women on our trip!). We loved Sirenian Bay Resort!"

"What a beautiful hotel! Rooms were super clean, lovely amenities, and friendly staff. The beach was lovely, with nice places to relax. Great happy hour at the restaurant too!"

"Everything was great. Shellyjay met me upon arrival, knew my name and escorted me to my room. She gave a great introduction and overview of the property and surrounding area, including groceries, dining and bars. Great relaxing getaway. I'll be back!"

"We liked the beachfront accommodations. It was quiet and relaxing. but would have liked a mini refrigerator in the room. "

"Loved the staff here so much! The property was beautiful and very well kept. Plenty beach chairs, hammocks, bikes, paddle boards and kayaks for the guests. Everyone feels like family and old friends by the end of your stay. Definitely will be back here."
