Hotels in Independence and Mango Creek

"Mariposa was a peaceful retreat. We stayed in one of the tree houses and enjoyed reading on the deck in the hammock in the afternoon. The staff were friendly and did a great job making it feel like home for the week."

"Sargassum seaweed lines the beaches throughout the Carribean and this beach is no exception. Also, sand flies and mosquitoes were prevalent in this area, requiring nets over the bed to sleep at night. The property was nice, but very expensive. "

"Beautiful architecture, stunning, and cleanly manicured beachfront property! But one of the nicest things was that the owner and the staff were so attentive, so nice, and help to make our stay very enjoyable. Many thanks to Mr. Fred, Clifford, Kent, Stephanie and Sadie!"

"The resort is building a new event center (metal construction), new pool bathrooms as well as remodeling rooms. All the constructions make it very unpleasant to stay around the pool and also the beach. The rooms that are not remodeled are very dated and overpriced! Due to the algae in the water it is not pleasant to swim in the water. The staff were friendly but not very competent! Avoid this resort if you want a quiet and peaceful vacation but even without the construction, we would not go back to this resort. "

"We had a great time at julia's cabanas."

"Great central location in the village, the staff are wonderful-friendly and efficient, room was lovely…ocean view from balcony, would stay here again"

"Our room was clean and well maintained. Nice fixtures and little extras around that made it very comfortable. The property was kept clean and was very nice. I think they swept/raked the beach area a few times a day! Pool was great. Restaurant was great. Staff went above and beyond expectations. They were very helpful every time i interacted with them. This is the place to stay when visiting Placencia area!"

"The resort is beautiful, everyone was very kind and very helpful. My only complaint is that I booked an ocean view room and they instead put me in a lagoon room. When I requested to have my room changed they said it would be an additional charge for an upgrade, although that is originally what I paid for was the ocean view room. "

"Its truly an all round wonderful hotel. The staff are incredibly warm and welcoming that mathches superb service. Beach at your front door, palm and coconut trees line the beach and pools that lead the dock where one can relax jn a hamock or swinging chair fir couples. The restraunts food is amazing...reserve early."
