This lovely, family owned beach resort is small and sweet. It has 8 unique beach houses and each house has its own bathroom, shower and private deck with a hammock for lounging. The hotel is well-equipped with kayaks and bicycles for the more active.

This Francis Ford Coppola beachfront property is located just outside the small fishing village of Placencia. One and two bedroom thatched cottages are decorated exquisitely with Asian furnishings and textiles. There is also a pool, bar, spa and dive shop.
