Staff was very courteous and helpful. We style in one of the « Treehouse «  rooms and enjoyed the covered deck. The restaurant had a limited menu but the food was excellent! Everything was spotless. The only negative was one night of noisy neighbors til midnight. The facility is a couple of miles from downtown so transportation costs can be high if you don’t use the complementary bicycles.

Loved this place! We were greeted with an offer of a cool refreshing towel and a welcome drink. The treehouse bungalows were so cool too! Very clean and accommodating. The staff was very accommodating as well, especially Marlin who drove us around town and even included friends that stayed down the beach. Oh, and this place is right on the beach with a beautiful deck, pool and beach setup. Great view! Would recommend this place to anyone.

Very clean, beautiful tree house. Staff are very kind and welcoming. Great location! And Beachfront! While we were there, the pool seemed a little dirty, but that may have just a one off thing. Everything else was perfect, beds and bathrooms were sparkling clean. We would stay again if in the area in the future. Beaches down the street are remarkable. Go explore, barefoot beach bar and Chillpoint were excellent spots!

The manager was kind and responsive when we checked in and the welcome towel and drink was a delightful surprise. We had a treehouse room that was beautiful and the natural decorations on the beds were amazing. There were many cute Instagram worthy places to sit and take pictures. The food was fresh, well prepared and nicely presented.

The resort is beautiful and elegant we stayed in a "tree house" in a landscaped "jungle-garden" inspired setting. I was so pleased with our little private piece of paradise. The AC was excellent, great wi-fi, plenty of outlets and the bathroom was spacious with built-ins. Staff was super friendly and the front of the house took exceptional care of us. Mariposa is quite close to the village as resorts go. It was a great blend of luxury and proximity.

We stayed in a deluxe garden room. It was like a cabin on stilts. The grounds were sooo clean too. Beautiful decor and very roomy! Nice bathroom and shower and loved the shampoo and conditioner which never happens for me on vacation. The beds were AMAZING. So comfortable and the blankets light but warm enough w the AC on. The staff were so friendly and helpful and fun. Shout out to Marlin, Cali, George and Gladis! Made our stay so special. The staff made the resort. It was probably one of the most memorable stays on our vacations.

Mariposa is the best kept secret in Placencia - my experience was excellent, end to end. It’s a beautiful beach front property with amazingly friendly staff (and central A/C!) that made our stay extremely enjoyable and memorable. We found it to be a great choice over some of the nicer, comparable options like Turtle Inn, since Mariposa has more of a boutique vibe, and we felt offered a better value overall. I plan to return again next year and will definitely book here again. Dave Swanson
