Staff were absolutely wonderful, welcoming and accommodating!! The tree house style room was private and quiet with a hammock on the porch to relax in the shade. The pool and dining area right on the beach was perfect!

10/10 Exceptional

This is a beautiful property! Small yet has great amenities. The staff were wonderful! Friendly and helpful they made you feel right at home. Our room was right off the pool and just steps from the beach. Great place to kayak. Clean and comfortable! Located about 10-15 minutes from Placencia.

We don’t usually stay at places like this one because we are usually on a tighter budget but this was a fantastic middle of the road option. The staff wer always available.

Great Staff!

When our flight to Belize City was delayed, Miguel stepped in and arranged for Tropic Air to create a later flight to get us to Placencia, and he came late to get us at the airport. The staff was wonderful and went out of their way to service us. Great staff and a great hotel!

10/10 Exceptional

My 12-year old son and I stayed one night here - the last night of our Belize vacation. This was the nicest of all the places we stayed in. We had a treehouse and it was so comfortable, clean, and peaceful. The staff was so welcoming and friendly. We used the complimentary bikes to get downtown and had ice cream at Tutti Fruitti, which I recommend. Note that the Placencia airport is very close which makes this a convenient place to stay if you are flying back to BZE to get home.

10/10 Exceptional

Mariposa is located on the beautiful beach.The resort is very small and creates very cozy and private environment The resort is well maintained very close to local airport. They have little restaurant but we had rental car and explored local Placencia restaurants. The staff is very friendly. We booked treehouse but they have construction on the property grounds. The manager offered for us beachfront room that was quiet and far away from the construction site . We really appreciated the upgrade. We stayed in this resort for a second time and never been disappointed. Thank you all the staff and manger for awesome vocation. We will come back.

Outstanding

The accommodation and service at Mariposa was outstanding. The property was impeccably take care of. It was very clean. The beach and location was quite pleasant. The amenities were super. Most importantly the service- the service that you receive from the staff is amazing. I was here for a week and each and every person has such a high bar set to please their customers. They all are genuine, kind and care deeply about the customer and property. Donny, Carlos, Amanda, Juan, Ricky, Gladys, the chef in the kitchen- George at reception-- ALL such a great bunch. THANK YOU and I'll be back....

10/10 Exceptional

The Mariposa was perfect from the start, even during our planning. They assisted us in our trip plans from Belize City to Placenia by booking our flights and providing information. They also provided transportation from the airport to the resort. When we arrived, we were greeted by staff and a tropical cocktail or mocktail. Our accommodations in the tree house exceeded our expectations. It was spacious, clean, comfortable, and had plenty of amenities. It is also beautiful. The staff was friendly, courteous, helpful, accommodating, and resourceful. The food and drinks at the restaurant on premises were delicious. There was a good variety of options as well as some authentic Belizean dishes. When I travel outside the U.S., I enjoy experiencing other cultures. We were able to do that at the Mariposa. I’d like to mention that George, Miguel, Donny, and Gladys were exceptional. They went out of their way each and every time we wanted or needed anything. Donny really took special care of us in all aspects of our trip- food, recommendations for tours and places to eat or drink or shop. Gladys coordinated our tours for when we wanted to do them. Miguel and George checked in with us retro b

We loved our stay at the Mariposa Resort. The staff were really attentive, giving us kindly advice on how to deal with the bug bites and itching. The only drawback of this and other properties is it is not walkable to anywhere. Rent a car or golf cart

10/10 Exceptional

We were not too impressed with the restaurant food for dinner. We waited over an hour and the watermelon salad was pretty much just watermelon with maybe a tablespoon of feta and 2 small tomatoes on it. The prices were way too high ! Breakfast, however was good. The staff are friendly and helpful but it takes a long time to get a drink. They also don’t give you complimentary bottle water and the mini fridge is super expensive. Over all the resort is over priced in our opinion.
Cindy, 2-night trip

Liked convenience to restaurant and waterfront. Staff friendly and go out of their way to help you. Living units called tree houses because they are built high off the ground. Five stars from us.
