Treasure Box is a MUST while in Placencia! I met Kaj through a friend and received a few items through her via Facebook and Insta before actually visiting her store in Belize. I reached out to her before my husband and I arrived in Placencia and when we arrived at Treasure Box, Kaj's employee Valentina greeted us with a smile (she also has THE BEST LAUGH EVER) Treasure Box has various items to choose from...rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, toe rings and plenty of other items, all of which are very inexpensive, and such great quality. Did I tell you that ALL items are handmade by Kaj? Who wouldn't want to take home a piece made by a Belizean local? I can tell you that I purchased MANY items, not only did I purchase many items, but I also took a trip to her other store in San Ignacio and bought two more pairs of earrings. My favorite item that I have that she made, is my personalized necklace, if you want one of these, you must order in advance so that you can pick up from her store when you arrive. You must also visit her other business "Cool Coconuts" at the end of the pier. They will chop open a fresh coconut right in front of you and you can either have a shot of coconut rum added, or just drink it as is. DELISH! Do NOT leave Placencia without visiting both of these businesses, you will not walk away disappointed! xoxo

This is a tiny shop filled with many treasures. Denyse makes most of the jewelry herself out of items she picks up while walking the beautiful Placencia shoreline. She grinds shells that wash up on the beach as well as local seeds (like my favorite sea heart and sea bean). And also makes things out of seaglass. Who knew that broken common class bottles, after being tossed in the sea for a few years could become so beautiful and ethereal. These are WONDERFUL. Denyse Originals carries many beautiful earrings and necklaces made from these. while her shop is small, Don't pass it by while walking on the sidewalk. It is between Rick's Cafe and Cozy Corner (Both good places to eat and drink). It is predominately green (with red and gold) - Rasta Colors. Take back souvenirs from here rather than t-shirts and other stuff made and printed in the US/UK. Denyse Originals IS original!!!

What great spot. They have opened their home to share wine, stories, cigars and art. Find a bottle in the cellar, and they will open it for you, and serve you upstairs in te 365 viewing rooftop. Sunsets, are great on the roof!! Simple cheese or meats served, with good company.

Lola's has the coolest art. Beautiful bright colors that really represent a talented eye and hand. Catch a cab or ride up to her place and check it out. We saw there are also special dinners there too, but didn't get the chance to check it out. We love out wooden plaque with a colorful cat on it.
