Our room and the resort were gorgeous, and we loved having a romantic dinner on the pier. Paddleboards didn’t have fins, which made them unusable, but otherwise our stay was perfect.

“The Rooms need a little upgrading. Better curtains that can close properly. One bathroom floor is too deep to step down for senior citizens Walking up the Receptionist could also use a handrail for senior citizens and other wide steps also need Handrails”

“What an amazing place! Villas are in a perfect location and very clean. Beach is well maintained even though sargassum was present during our stay, they worked very hard to keep it clean. Food and drinks were top notch. Easy bike ride to village or shuttle service each hour after certain times.”

“This is an excellent resort in a good location. The staff are excellent, always a smile and a kind word. Our 2bedroom villa was large with a full kitchen and indoor laundry. You can order meals and have them in your villa, on your deck, at the pool, or on the pier which makes mealtime extra special. We highly recommend the resort as well as the snorkel and Monkey River excursions”

“Meticulously manicured lawn and garden. The staff were very helpful and ready to assist with any issues or questions. Food was great too especially the breakfast. Siri, the massage therapist, was the best! ”

“Beautiful place to stay with 1st class service. Far enough out of town for peace but only 5 minutes outside of town. Their food was excellent and reasonably priced compared to town. Definitely get a golf cart. ”

“We just returned from a week at Chabil Mar Villas. We loved our stay there. The staff were so nice, helpful and accommodating, especially at the front office. The food and drinks were great whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner. The location was great to walk to town or bike around. We would recommend this property to anyone considering spending time in Placencia. ”

“Staying here was by far one of the best vacation experiences. The hospitality was amazing. Dion, Natalie, Locho, and everyone else that we met while On property went above and beyond the normal. I can’t recommend Chabil enough and will definitely be coming back! ”

“Stayed with my husband and adult daughter. The villa was well appointed and very comfortable. Two bedrooms and two baths and a nice kitchen/living area so we had enough space to share. Nice shaded deck with hammock too. The two pools were well maintained. Lounge chairs and umbrellas at both the pool area and beach. There was a complimentary shuttle to bring us into town and the driver (I forget his name) was so friendly and accommodating. There were also complimentary bikes that we used a number of times. They were in good shape and always available. There were also kayaks & paddle boards available, but we did not take advantage of them as it was too windy while we were there. Overall a great stay.”

“A really wonderful hotel, I'm so pleased we came here. When we arrived I was surprised at how wonderful the room was - a big kitchen with loads of appliances, there was even a washer and dryer which was hugely appreciated after several weeks of travelling. There was even coffee and little bottles of rum waiting for us!
The pools, the beachfront, the beautiful garden, the lovely staff, everything was wonderful!
The only moment we weren't very happy was on the first day when we were woken up at nine by the reception calling to see if we wanted housekeeping - we were exhausted when we arrived and needed to catch up on sleep, so that was frustrating. Then the same day a woman came round to the room to give us a hotel newsletter and walked right into the room when she saw us standing in the kitchen behind the bar (we were in our underwear and it was uncomfortable). We asked them not to call or bring us the 'newsletters' any more and they respected our wishes so it was easily remedied.
Would definitely come back. ”
