I have my work cut out for me. I just came across 5 locations in Placencia that are cabana style (grass hut) beachfront and within our budget!

First is the Finca Beach House and Cabanas. The property is beachfront but also stretches to the lagoon which is perfect for birdwatching and kayaking. The cabanas are built on stilts and offer the fresh ocean breeze and has a deck to enjoy the sunsets on. The going rate in the off season is a low $50.00 per night. There is an additional 9% sales tax and a minimum stay of three nights. That could be our problem. I don’t think we would stay in Placencia more than two nights.

The next location in Placencia is the Garden Cabanas. While these are not beach front, they are an 8 minute walk to the beach. It is located in Placencia Village itself. This locations allows you to easily walk to and from bars, restaurant tour providers and the beach. The small cabanas here run at $40 a night. The larger cabanas are $50 a night. And as most hotels, there is an additional 9% sales tax that will be added.

And of course: Heaven’s Gate Beach Bungalow. This bungalow location is beach front in Placencia Village. The bungalow comes with a private hammock, sunbathe, play in the waves, relax, or take a simple walk to downtown to venture to some shops and restaurant.

Bungalows run at $85.00 USD a night and also have the minumum 3 night stay and additional 9% sales tax.
Next up: Mahogany Beach Cabanas. These cabanas are beachfront and located in the Placencia village. The cabin has a veranade to relax and enjoy the sea breeze and sunsets. They cabanas have large windows that allow lots of sea breeze and natural light. The cabanas run at $65 USD a night and do not include daily housekeeping services. Fresh linens are available upon request at $15 USD a night. As the others, an additional 9% sales tax is to be added on and a minimum of three nights stay.
