Unique place
Very fun and unique place, the location was nice and quiet and relaxing. Only issue I had was the hot water for showers was not working and the indoor hot tub is not heated. Other then that, we had a great stay.

Wonderful Property and people!!
This place was amazing! The house is so unique, it’s definitely one of a kind! The staff were so helpful and friendly all the time, but never pushy. Just around if you need them. I would definitely recommend Swan Villas to anyone. We can’t wait to go back!

Couldn't Have Chosen a Better Place to Stay!
We had a magical stay at Swan Villas. This unique property provided us with the experience we were lookign for in Belize. The property was clean, quiet, and Miriam was very responsive and super helpful! One of our favorite places to hang was the salt water pool; quite lovey with a nice view of the lagoon. If you're looking for a comforable and unique place to stay, Swan Villas is the place.

20th Anniversary
We found this place to be so unique and loved all of it. It was spacious. The rainforest shower was gorgeous. It had everything one could possibly need for a 6 night stay. We had a golf cart so we were able to explore the area all the way down to Placencia pier district. It was nice to vome home to a private pool and relax and watch the sun set over the lagoon. The balcony was relaxing and i even got some photos of the full moon. Highly recommend and would stay again.

Fantastic!
Fantastic stay! We were in the dolphin house for 3 nights. Everything was excellent. The home is funky yet functional and very spacious. The spaces were open, but well defined. The hot tub was so welcome, especially since it was a little cooler when we arrived. I would recommend starting it 2-4 hours before you want to use it, but it will get nice and toasty. We enjoyed watching bollywood soaps while soaking since the tv is in view of the tub. The round bed was very comfortable (for two average sized adults), which was a relief since i’d never slept on a round bed before. The outside space was beautiful as well. Very quiet despite being close to the highway. There are bikes for rent, which is nice since it’s a bit outside of the town proper. The cabs are also plentiful and convenient. We would love to stay here again in the future!

Living inside the fishtank
Not functional. Stairs too narrow and slippery. Bathroom downstairs no sink to wash hands. Gecko's in bathroom, bedroom, in the plant containers. Staff was nice and helpful.

The place was so eclectic and cool!! Close to eateries and I love having the bikes to ride. One down fall, cold water in the shower and jacuzzi. With that being said… I would still stay here again!

my wife and I love the place, very nice, very clean, the only bad thing is that you do not provide water to drink, as in my case I arrived at 8pm everything was closed and we drank water until the other day and we could not give water to our baby boy

This place was exceptional. We stayed in the Dolphin and it was one of the best places we have been to so far. The layout of the room along with the hot tub was perfect. Only thing I would recommend is for there to be blackout curtains that covers the whole window because when the sun rises, it gets too bright in the room. Other than that, I loved this place. Not to forget, the pool was awesome!

Best hotel ever!
This room is 10/10 beautiful and cozy. The pool could be deeper but for just relaxing it's perfect. The only issue in the room are the stones on the shower very hard to stand on to take a proper shower, maybe replacing them with one whole stone would be better? Aside from that the hot tub and room were outstanding. Will stay here again!

Increible lugar
Disfrutamos mucho nuestra estad[ia en Dolphin Swan Vilas, las casitas son una maravilla con mucho estilo, no dan ganas de ir al pueblo sino disfrutar de la casa y la pileta. Est[a un poco alejado de Placencia y supermercados, por lo que ir en auto es lo ideal. Nosotros no estabamos en auto, al super fuimos en las bicis del hotel y para ir a Placencia usamos bus (no pasan muy seguido) o un taxi $20 americanos. Todo el resto espectacular, tambien la ayuda de nuestra concierge Vero, que nos respondio y ayudo en cada consulta, antes y durante la estadia. Muchas gracias!!!

Wonderful stay in fun, well-appointed home
Great amenities and location. I ended up loving having the hot tub in the living room. The kitchen is well-equipped and there is in-unit laundry and a dishwasher. I used both the kayaks and bikes - which were definitely a bonus as well. I hope to return.
