Great place to stay in Plasencia!

Facilities are super nice, I could park in front of my room and that was a big plus in convinience.... The staff was super helpfull and with the best attitude. The kitchen needs more attention, the food was just average or less not reflecting the price range...

The staff was so friendly and accommodating. The room and the grounds were beautiful. The food and service at the restaurant was outstanding
Sue, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Umaya is a great place to stay if you want to just relax. The food options are limited but they do have a good dinner. The down side is that it is far from the main village of placencia and they only offer two times of free transport otherwise you have to pay. Rooms were clean and spacious…we love how our room was right off the beach and pool.
Kelle, 6-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We had a party of six, the staff was superb and the food was excellent. We were with family and had a large suite with two rooms on the ocean and it was perfect overlooking the pool. Many available water activities and good time with the family.

Wonderful stay at Umaya Resort

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Umaya Beach resort. The staff was friendly and helpful. Accommodations were clean and comfortable. It was a very calm, quiet, and relaxing stay which is what we were seeking. Enjoyed the use of kayaks and paddleboards. Staff arranged excursions and transport to and from the airport as well as a daily shuttle into Placencia. Everything we were looking for in a vacation!

Umaya good for the money

Umaya Resort is a great place to stay in Placencia. It is about 20 minute drive to the town. The resort is clean. It does need some updating and better care to details. For the price, it is a very good choice.
2-night trip

8/10 Very good

It’s a great location and service. It’s our second time staying at Umaya and enjoyed our stay. The staff is very helpful and friendly. The spa and the massage are super relaxing. Overall I recommend. The cons - wish the restaurant and pool bar would stay open at least until 10:00pm. Restaurant closes at 8:00pm and pool bar even earlier. Wish there was a fitness center. The pool and some of the rooms could use a makeover.
Renita Subhashbhai, 8-night trip

Loved the design and landscape of the property. Room was very spacious and you can go to either lagoon or beach side. Restaurant onsite was wonderful. Beach and the dock were very nice and staff were friendly.

The space was lovely and had great view of the ocean from our villa. The villa was clean and had all necessary amenities needed. The complimentary cocktail was amazingly delicious. My family had a blast with the complimentary kayaks and paddle boards. The staff was helpful, pleasant and attentive. The breakfast and lunch was great.
