Mission Bay

Overshot expectations by a mile! The X factor was the chef and onsite service. Staff stays in guest house on sight. Jorge and his wife Jaime act as housekeeping plus concierge. They are perfectly available, unintrusive, and delightful! And the chefs Julia and Salvador managed to wow a group of 9 that included some legit food snobs. This was a four night family trip celebrating an 80th birthday and we were all amazed by the overall experience. From the concierge service that was extremely personalized prior to arrival, including having the fridge stocked to our requests, to accommodating many food allergies and preferences, to check in thru check out and everything in between. The only cautions are one of the bedrooms is off the kitchen and early risers can be disruptive and, while Placencia was absolutely charming, if you are expecting a well developed touristy town, you may be disappointed by a lack of amenities and restaurants. For our group, this was actually a bonus.

This Villa with my family was outstanding. The house was comfortable and we spent so much time on the Veranda. The rooms were plenty big & comfortable. Having a chef was so nice and the food exceptional. We would recommend this Villa highly.
