The resort was perfect. The staff were all exceptionally kind and efficient. The room was beautiful and spacious. The resort is very well maintained and a short trip to town. Would 100% stay here again.
Lovely little resort. It was quiet, clean, awesome beach and staff. My only minor complaint was I thought I would have a beach view which it wasn’t. Still wonderful and easy access to the beach and beauty. Sweet little place.

The manager was kind and responsive when we checked in and the welcome towel and drink was a delightful surprise. We had a treehouse room that was beautiful and the natural decorations on the beds were amazing. There were many cute Instagram worthy places to sit and take pictures. The food was fresh, well prepared and nicely presented.
The resort is beautiful and elegant we stayed in a "tree house" in a landscaped "jungle-garden" inspired setting. I was so pleased with our little private piece of paradise. The AC was excellent, great wi-fi, plenty of outlets and the bathroom was spacious with built-ins. Staff was super friendly and the front of the house took exceptional care of us. Mariposa is quite close to the village as resorts go. It was a great blend of luxury and proximity.
Loved this place! We were greeted with an offer of a cool refreshing towel and a welcome drink. The treehouse bungalows were so cool too! Very clean and accommodating. The staff was very accommodating as well, especially Marlin who drove us around town and even included friends that stayed down the beach. Oh, and this place is right on the beach with a beautiful deck, pool and beach setup. Great view! Would recommend this place to anyone.
The staff was fantastic from start to finish. All of them did an excellent job. I could boon about each one individually but would be repeating myself as they all went beyond my expectations.
Customer Service was the best we have ever received from any place of stay. Amazing Restaurant/Bar and staff. They really went above and beyond to make you feel welcome. Our treehouse room was better than expected.
The staff was incredible from start to finish
We were greeted by Gladis and Jose and others. Our rooms were spotless and they were great at anticipating our needs.
It was my birthday and they made very special accommodations to make it very memorable.
Mariposa is the best kept secret in Placencia - my experience was excellent, end to end. It’s a beautiful beach front property with amazingly friendly staff (and central A/C!) that made our stay extremely enjoyable and memorable. We found it to be a great choice over some of the nicer, comparable options like Turtle Inn, since Mariposa has more of a boutique vibe, and we felt offered a better value overall.
I plan to return again next year and will definitely book here again.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. They helped with setting up tours and finding anything you needed.
Our room was clean and very nice with great view of the ocean. Resort was quiet and relaxing.
Amazing place! We will definitely be returning. The staff were very friendly and helped to make our stay enjoyable. Highly recommend the Mariposa Beach Resort.
We loved our stay at Mariposa. It was extremely comfortable--comfy beds and pillows! Everyone was very helpful and nice - great hospitality. The treehouses are beautiful and private. All of our drinks and food were good. There's a nice beach with loungers, chairs, umbrellas and food/beverage service.
This is a beautiful property! Small yet has great amenities. The staff were wonderful! Friendly and helpful they made you feel right at home. Our room was right off the pool and just steps from the beach. Great place to kayak. Clean and comfortable! Located about 10-15 minutes from Placencia.
