For the money, Brisa Oceano is a great place to stay in Placencia. Very close to pretty much everything Placencia has to offer (including municipal pier and tours), very friendly, accomodating staff, good tap water, great water pressure, beach, free kayaks, and more. There were some issues with the room itself (doorstops in bad places, tight quarters in some areas) but overall, Brisa Oceano was great.
