While Garden Cabanas was cheap and decently sized, there is no air conditioning, so the place was hot, 24 hours a day. Impossibly to cool down in here during the hot day, and difficult to sleep in. Unfortunately we had horrible "neighbors" staying next to us, and the cabana offers no noise protection either (there are no glass windows, only... More

We stayed in a large cabana, which was pretty comfortable and met our needs for a 3-day stay. Best part was the location convenient to restaurants, shops and the beach. One disadvantantage was that the manager is off-site and not easily available when we needed to reach him (to get keys, to get more toilet paper). However, this was good... More

We were down in Placencia for Easter and had booked the large cabana, we found it perfect for out budget and the cabanas being right down in the village made it great because we could walk to wherever we wanted to go within a couple minutes. The rooms were clean, kitchenette quite handy and we were welcomed by Tom waiting... More

We have stayed in Placencia many times but recently stumbled upon this cute cabana deal in a quaint village setting. It was so nice to go to the beach, and then come home to this totally tranquil setting and sit on the porch and totally chill as the sun goes down. Bed was comfy, kitchenette handy, place was super clean.... More

We stayed for 1 week. The cabana had a fully equipped kitchenette which is great when you are traveling on a budget. they are located in the center of the village, which makes it easy to get around. i have nothing to complain about, although the cabana could use a new coat of paint. Tom, the assistant manager really took... More

We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the Garden Cabanas. We agree that Tom is indeed a great asset. Thank you for the candid comment on the need for a new coat of paint. We actually have arranged to have all of the cabanas painted in the next couple of months. So when you return to wonderful... More

We stayed here for an entire month. The cabanas were cute and cozy. They are very convieniently located. The staff was polite and attentive. The only drawback was when we checked in the place was a little dirty (dusty). Not a big problem-it only took minutes to wipe it down. A tip-ask for directions to John the Bakerman. He has... More

We are very pleased that you enjoyed your stay at the Garden Cabanas. We appreciate your candid comment that the cabana was a 'little dusty'. We apologize and want you to know that we were in the process of changing management in March. Our new manager comes with a great attention to detail and strong customer service. We are working...

This place is very nice and quaint. It is located centrally; short walk to the water, beautiful grounds. The place was really clean and was laid out well. It was open air with no A/C but it was not a problem. The reason I rated service so low is because basically after you check in there is no service. No... More

My wife and I (late 50's but adventerous) traveled to Placencia March 27 to April 4 and stayed at Garden Cabanas. Nice clean little cabins with kitchens and bath set amongst tropical plants a few blocks from the water. Fans but no air conditioning, which might be a problem in the summer when the humidity sets in, but we slept... More
