Paige, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

MY RESERVATION WAS FOR 1 ROOM, NOT 2.

Our stay was highly influenced by the resort charging for 2 rooms instead of 1. I RESERVED ONE ROOM. If this is resolved then the review would be very different. The resort and staff are very good, the restaurant is convenient and very good. The room was wonderful.
Wendy, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

It is a beautiful resort and the staff extremely accomodating. The only drawback that I found to be annoying was the use of a leaf blower. Also the dining choices were very limited.
Sandra, 7-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Property grounds were very well maintained with lots of beautiful plants and flowers. Room was clean, very spacious. Staff were very kind and helpful. The onsite restaurant had wonderful dining options (we enjoyed breakfast and dinner while we stayed). Would highly recommend staying here!
Lisa, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had lots of little bugs in our villa. Could use a few more railings as floors get slippery when wet. Food was excellent. Beach was beautiful but found a few glass and plastic bottle pieces in sand, Not good for bare feet. 2 lovely and clean pools for non sea swimmers. Would recommend this resort.

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!
Jennifer E, 8-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.

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.
