Staff were very accommodating in our request to upgrade to a room with air conditioning. The room we had booked initially was very small, would not accommodate our luggage and did not have air conditioning.

Thanks to Mike, the owner who took us to the bus terminal by boat instead of allowing us to walk there which would have taken us 15-20 mins. It was a nice complimentary service.

The pool was lovely and provided for an extra relaxing stay. Our double room luckily was on the corner of the second floor of the building, so we had two sets of windows for a nice cross breeze to cool off in the hot room. The gentlemen working there are nice.

We got two economy rooms for one night, without AC, thinking that since each room had two fans and we were on the water, it would be fine. Big mistake! That building is just not designed for good airflow.
The pool was incredible. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful. Swimming while watching the sunrise was awesome!

The walls between units are thin so if noise bothers you for sleeping, then bring earplugs.
The location is awesome- beautiful views of the canal from our room. The pool is delightful and has a bonus swim up bar. The staff are truly amazing - friendly, helpful, always ready to assist you. The grounds are well kept with coconut trees and flowers with many visiting birds.

The management team breezed over a laundry list of “do’s and don’ts” once we first got there and had us sign a contract. A few days later I was rudely yelled at not to be eating poolside after having taken an antibiotic that required food. Kind of left a sting... it wasn’t the only moment during my stay that I felt I had been chastised.
The pool was lovely and provided for an extra relaxing stay. Our double room luckily was on the corner of the second floor of the building, so we had two sets of windows for a nice cross breeze to cool off in the hot room. The gentlemen working there are nice.

“Sunset Pointe is a great location. Good for a short stay, great little pool bar.”

Needing to ring for a boat to take you across the lagoon got to be bothersome.
Good little concept, but the photos a little misleading as to size of rooms. Overall great pool bar and facility.

Just the mosquitos at night - but that’s not the hotel’s fault!
Sailfish is on an island at the tip of the Placencia Peninsula. It is about a 10 minute walk from the center of town, and you need to press a call button to have the staff come get you in a boat (the boat ride is about 20 seconds, since a narrow channel separates the island from the mainland). Some of the rooms have a shared bathroom. The pool is very nice, and the cocktails are strong. It is the perfect place to stay if you want to be close to the center of placencia village, but also have some peace and quiet. In and around the water you will see many birds, iguana, stardish, swordfish, eel, eagle rays, jellyfish, so if you like wildlife spotting this is the perfect spot. Since it is surrounded by water there are a lot of mosquitos at night so be sure to bring bug repellent. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed our stay and will stay there again if we ever go back to Placencia.

Very Poor

Everything. The smell in our room was bad from the picture on the wall, and always needed to air out the room from the musky smell. We seen a cockaroche in our hallways, we felt trapped as it’s over a lagoon and you have to be boated in and out to get anywhere. So your always replying on him to drive you (he forgot to pick us up when we agreed on a time) we were stranded on the dock for over an hour and half. It’s pretty bad here, not that helpful. Was a terrible experience.
The pool was nice and the bar in the lobby

The information online was not clear. We were expecting the shared space to be private to our six guests. However, it turned to be a room for twelve which would normally be given out in two groups of six. This information was clear on the on the booking.com site when we booked.
Very hospitable and accommodating host and staff. Everything flowed smoothly from check in to checkout. The Bar attendant and person assisting with the boat were very friendly and helpful. I would surely visit again.

Could've done with some clearer directions to get there if you're not getting a taxi. Got there eventually, but was trying to travel with friends and not the added cost of the taxi.
Mike and his staff were lovely, and the cocktails fantastic! They worked well with ReefCI, who I was volunteering with and always happy to get the water taxi going.
