Super clean room. Great management! Excellent menu for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. The food was excellent! Better than what we experienced elsewhere in town, Thanks Julie!! Another plus was hanging out with Alan, the owner, who is on site, all day, every day. Nice guy and very accommodating.
It is tucked in down a crowded back street and a narrow alley but not to worry, on the short walk from the parking area we enjoyed talking to several of the neighbors. The entire town is filled with nice people without the hustle I've felt in other Belizean locations.
Can't think of a thing I'd have wanted different. Definitely the most layed back vacation I can remember.

Room was clean and comfortable. Had a great night sleep
Thought it was on the beach , but still very nice
4.2
The booking manager was lovely - very kind, and welcoming. The complimentary kayaking was fantastic. Beautiful premises, and great location. The showers and AC in the room were great.
Two major things.
1. Room flooded on our last night from one overnight rainstorm, which damaged some of our property, including a $90 computer charger and all our card games we brought. The staff was apologetic, and provided complimentary breakfast, which I appreciated. However, the room should have had a lip or some way of preventing water spilling from outside. Surely it rains a lot in Placencia, and this issue is known?
2. We couldn't find anywhere peaceful to relax at the hotel outside of the rooms. There was an outdoor restaurant and lounge chairs but for most of our stay the owner was either watching reality tv very loudly in the restaurant or watching videos on his phone with loud whatsapp notifications sounding on max volume, from before 7am in the morning. Such a shame, because if only the owner watched tv in his own room, the common area would be so nice... but we had to spend all our time at other hotel common areas instead paying for juice/coffee to stay there.
Apart from these things, the hotel was great and we enjoyed our stay.

Absolutely everything. It’s clean,
Big and comfortable beds.

The property is lovely. It is only a 5 minute walk to the main street so you have some quiet. The food was delicious. The staff was so friendly and extremely helpful. My favourite part was they offered bikes with locks for free. I had the oportunity to explore the town and ride all over. It was also fairly priced. We went during off-season and loved it.

Friendly helpful staff and Complimentary Kayaks and bikes.
4.2
The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was great, down a long alley and right on the water.
My room was the only thing I didn't like. It was an interior room in the middle of a hallway. It had only one small window in the bathroom that faced a brick wall two feet away. I felt claustrophobic in the small space with no window. I think they have other rooms available that look out on the ocean. I wish I had known the options when I booked it.

It was a wonderful place For my wife and I . Simple yet very clean room. No extras like coffee pot or microwave but a refrigerator.
Best hot water shower we had on our belize trip. Loved the access to the bikes and kayaks. We had breakfast there most mornings and it's great. Pick up and delivery to the bus station was also very helpful. Staff very accomodating. Right on the water.

The owners and staff were helpful and friendly. The owner picked us up at the airport. The hotel is right on the water. The onsite restaurant was very good. Other restaurants and stores were within an easy walk.

The owners and super friendly and helpful. Love the location!

Yeah it was great. The location was great on the beach. Room was comfy and clean. Food was good too. Some regular visitors were really nice. One of the best things for sure was renting a kayak for free (and being allowed to take a coconut.)
Would stay again for sure.
I always leave at least one negative comment per review, for fairness.
I think the worst thing was the lack of a proper window in our room.
4.2
pickup from the airport, location by the beach near the city centre, airconditioning
4.2
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. The air con was a nice addition! There is an area to leave a book / take a book. The area outside by the water is pleasant.
There was no comfortable common chill out area - there is huge potential for the area outside by the water but the loungers and chairs there were hard nd uncomfortable to sit on!
4.2
the staff, the menu, the air conditioner, one of the beds. the other may have been built for a child and I’m a large woman. Not necessarily their fault.
one of the beds

We were looking for a Belizean experience and the Hotel was located in the center of the local hotels and housing. Our location was more family than touristy. We hate resorts and Alans is a simple quiet small client hotel with a personal touch. Air conditioning was good. Location and locals friendly.

4.2
we booked wanting to be close to a dive shop hotel was just a basic hotel close to everything quiet and clean the restaurant was clean with fresh food enjoyed the stay very affordable and offered a free shuttle to and from the airport
The beds were a little small for 2 people, the beach was unusable and very small though the little dock or marina was very nice to just sit at and watch the water, the according to hotel you could rent golf carts which they don't have and the roof top jacuzzi is gone also though talking with the hotel a lot of that is due to getting parts and supplies in belize, they did offer to call captain jack's rentals to help out
