Reviews for Chabil Mar

Excellent all around. I definitely recommend!

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 2 weeks ago

Our stay at Chabil Mar was excellent. It was extremely relaxing and a perfect spot for families to stay. They do not have a restaurant, but have a service that will bring the food to your room. I enjoyed that more than going to a restaurant. We ate most meals on our balcony, which provided us with relaxing family meals all to ourselves. And the food is excellent on top of that. We also booked a snorkeling tour through the front office. It was a super cool experience and seamless booking through the staff.

A little slice of heaven in Placencia Belize

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 3 weeks ago

Wow, I just can’t say enough good things about this experience. The best way to sum it up is “easy and effortless.” From the initial WhatsApp message to check availability, through the booking process, through the stay itself, everything was just so smooth and simple. Chris and his team have done an incredible job at Chabil Mar and they put on a master class for how resorts should treat their customers and guests. Every single person that you interact with greets you with a smile, a friendly “hello”, and they go out of their way to make you feel welcome and comfortable. We visited for my wife’s birthday and they took some additional steps to make it extra special. They arranged a special (private) dinner on the end of the dock with beautiful tropical decorations and even ordered a birthday cake made from a local baker. It was delicious. My wife also has a seafood allergy that they handled perfectly, the front office made the kitchen aware of her allergy and we never had any issues at all. We rented a golf cart from the resort which made exploring the village a lot of fun and very easy. Upon booking the room, I asked for their assistance in booking our domestic flights to/from Placencia. They handled that with perfection with Maya Air and they also handled the airport transfers. Their timing was perfect, they knew exactly what they were doing. Upon landing in Placencia we were greeted with a sign, a cold bottle of water and a cool rag, it was a wonderful welcome. The staff here were truly exceptional and that’s what sets them apart from the rest, the front desk/concierge, the waiters and bartenders, the gardeners, the housekeeping staff, the security, everyone was so kind, helpful, and friendly. I haven’t stayed anywhere else in Placencia but I can’t believe that anyone, anywhere is doing it as good or as perfect as they are at Chabil Mar. We will be back again very soon, no doubt about it.

Fantastic property.

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 4 weeks ago

This is our third time visiting Chabil Mar. It’s been fantastic all three visits. Been twice as a family and once for our anniversary. The grounds are immaculate, the food is great, the villas are awesome, and the staff is excellent. I highly recommend this resort if you’re looking for a small exclusive resort, in a traditional, slow paced, Belizean fishing village.

Simply the best spot

TripAdvisor Traveler Review Rating Reviewed 1 month ago

Once you arrive, you will know that you have found the spot! Chabil-Mar has to be my favorite place to have stayed in Central America. The staff were very friendly and accommodating to any request. We were called by our names throughout the entire stay. We had all of our needs met. The property was immaculate and situated in the best spot along the beach. Services were on point, including trips into the city of Placencia. If we needed something, all we had to do was ask and it was handled-effeciently and effectively, no hassles. The villa was spotless! It was truly beautiful and inviting. The menu offerings for all three daily meals were delicious. The bar and the service was amazing as well. We will return to Placencia and stay here again and again.
