Placencia Peninsula Holidays from £1,220

This is a fantastic place to stay if you are heading to the Placencia area. The bungalows are amazing and the pool area is top notch with a great swim up bar. Staff were super friendly and accommodating during the entire stay. Would definitely stay here again.

I stayed here alone in one of their villas. The first two days were amazing. The staff was great, and I had such a good time. Unfortunately, that completely changed after a very frightening experience. On my second day, one of the male workers asked for my phone number and told me I was beautiful. As a woman traveling alone, I already felt that this was inappropriate and made me uncomfortable. That same night, at around 4 am I woke up to someone trying to open the door to my bedroom. Thankfully, I had locked it. I got up and asked who was there, and a man responded that his name was “Jerome” and said that we had met earlier. I immediately started screaming, and he left. I cannot describe how terrifying it was to wake up in the middle of the night, alone in a villa, to a man trying to enter my bedroom. The experience completely changed how I felt about staying there, and I ended up cutting my trip short. What started as an amazing vacation turned into an experience that has left me deeply shaken. I am sharing this because other women, especially women considering staying here alone deserve to be aware of what happened to me.
