Placencia Peninsula Vacations from $1,397

The room was absolutely beautiful and spacious. Upon arrival Sobrena was amazing and informative. I enjoyed the food there at the restaurant. The whole staff around the resort was so kind especially Andrew. They have complimentary bikes that you can ride around the town on which is also fantastic! I am definitely going back to stay again.

I stayed here alone in one of their villas. The first two days were amazing. The staff was great, and I had such a good time. Unfortunately, that completely changed after a very frightening experience. On my second day, one of the male workers asked for my phone number and told me I was beautiful. As a woman traveling alone, I already felt that this was inappropriate and made me uncomfortable. That same night, at around 4 am I woke up to someone trying to open the door to my bedroom. Thankfully, I had locked it. I got up and asked who was there, and a man responded that his name was “Jerome” and said that we had met earlier. I immediately started screaming, and he left. I cannot describe how terrifying it was to wake up in the middle of the night, alone in a villa, to a man trying to enter my bedroom. The experience completely changed how I felt about staying there, and I ended up cutting my trip short. What started as an amazing vacation turned into an experience that has left me deeply shaken. I am sharing this because other women, especially women considering staying here alone deserve to be aware of what happened to me.
