About this house rental
SPACIOUS BEACH HOUSE WITH KAYAKS, PICTURE POSTCARD BEACH AND HOME COMFORTS!
Sleeps 4 right on the beachfront! Beautifully appointed open plan beach house right in front of the sea in the idyllic neighborhood of Maya Beach.
Spacious Toucan has 1 king bed, 1 queen bed, two sofas, inside dining area and veranda overlooking the Caribbean Sea.
Everything you need for comfort is here - a kitchen, powerful air conditioning, ceiling fans, large screen TV with streaming apps, high speed internet, imported linens and a hammock to swing in right on the veranda!
Warm waters and a tropical Caribbean haven will greet you at this private sea front beach home located in the friendly village Maya Beach located on the Placencia Peninsula, Stann Creek District in Southern Belize.
Just 6 miles north of Placencia Airport, the Jadewinds property is within walking distance of great restaurants & dining, beach bars, grocery stores, an art gallery and Belize's only bowling alley. Stroll along the newly paved road and side walks or explore walking along the shoreline and taking in the natural beauty all around you.
This private, self catered sea front home is surrounded by coconut trees, sea grapes, coco plums, almond trees and palmettos that you can enjoy from your apartment upstairs in one of only two buildings set amongst over 100ft of soft sandy beach.
Jadewinds has three beachfront rooms in a spacious property right in the center of Maya Beach. If you need a group getaway or reunion, we have a total of 5 beds and can sleep up to 10 people.

If you decide to trade in the beach towels and swaying in the hammock for a bit of adventure, nearby you can explore Mayan archaeological sites, jungle rivers, waterfalls and wildlife, islands, ziplines, 4 wheelers, chocolate tours, cultural tours, spice tours, and much more!
Excursions and tours can be recommended to you. If the sea is where you're headed, you can get picked up at the dock beachside. If the Maya mountains are where you're headed, you can get picked up roadside.
Things to do:
From Toucan you can book tours and excursions to explore all that Belize has to offer, or freely roam in your own time if you hire a car.

The location was one of our favorite parts. We walked to restaurants and bars, walked to the grocery store and the bakery!
5.0
This was a perfect beach house for us. It was spacious and clean and had everything we needed. The location was particularly nice, right on the beach and close to beautiful resorts within walking distance for dinner. The food and service at the restaurants was exceptional, both The Green Parrot and The Maya Beach Hotel and Bistro. The owner and manager response time was excellent both to welcome us upon arrival and to help us when we locked ourselves out. We would definitely stay here again.

Very peaceful and the green parrot next door was fun

Very nice property, staff was easy to contact and helpfull tho we didn't need a whole lot of help. Pretty remote which would not be a big deal but most of the roads on the Island are in pretty rough shape. Nice beach and property was in decent shape. Would stay again.

Enjoyed the beach house but was disappointed with the mildew in the shower. Would have chosen another rental had I know I had to clean the shower myself.

There are too many good things about this property to type here. The property is exactly as advertised and sets just feet from the sea. Upon arrival Leo picked us up at the airport in placencia, stop by the local grocery for a few necessities( which is literally right across the street from the property, and dropped us off in paradise. We visited in mid November for 12 nights and the area was very peaceful and quiet. We really had the beach and surroundings to ourselves. A few steps out and you are in the sea. Upon arrival Leo had the Air running in the property. We actually turned it off, opened all the windows and enjoyed the cool sea breeze our entire trip.
Previous reviews mentioned loud music, ect from the Green Parrot next door. Hmmm we did not experience that. However the entire staff of the Parrot should be the Ambassadors to the area. Licia, Cedric, Matt, Sylvia, Sheldon, Becky, Henry and the rest of the crew became our family next door.
What an amazing property paired with amazing locals in the area. Thank you for an unforgettable visit.

Our stay at the Toucan House was everything we wanted it to be and more. The location is amazing if you're looking for peace and quiet. Great restaurant next door, the Green Parrot. There's a store across the street - super convenient. Leo was helpful with everything and anything we needed. Can't wait to go back!

We stayed here for a few days on our honeymoon. Loved being right on the beach. They did a great job at trying to keep the beach clean. Having the Green Parrot right beside was great. They have good food and drinks. There is not much in the town of Maya Beach so we did a fair bit of driving to Placencia or Sene Brite for for and such so just be aware of its location. But we had a great time here! Thank you

This was our second stay at this beach house. My husband and I find the location to be ideal. The beach is right there, and we can hear the water from the front porch. We settle in quickly to relaxation mode.

We stayed December24-30th. The location is spot on . The best restaurant was Mangos. We caught our own fish & they cooked it for us 😊❤️When you go rent a golf cart. It’s all you need . The diving is spectacular . Highly satisfied all the way around

I give the property a super rating, with reservations about other things. It's a great house, open, roomy, and solid. Leo was a perfect host. There are restaurants and a grocery store that are easily walkable. This pretty much is all I require on vacation--food nearby and right on the beach!
There was a lot of seaweed on the beach on some days, and this is not a resort, so they don't rake the sand every day, etc. It wasn't really a problem; just step over it. One day it was too bad to swim, but it's Mother Nature and just one of those things. Nice beach otherwise and several lounging areas for sun or shade. The whole area is small groups of cabanas and houses, but it was quiet and never a lot of people.
My one reservation, and this isn't the house itself, is that the small outdoor bar next door plays music all day long and I prefer quiet, especially in the house. It didn't go late at all, but I might have chosen the other cabin if I had known.
Overall it's a great house in a great location!

It was truly a place to relax. It was quite, not to much activity and very comfortable.

We enjoyed our time there. There is a couple of things that I would have changed. The porch swing needs to be replaced. The air conditioner had a hard time keeping up. I would never have said the house was cool. I also dripped condensation on our heads at night, which was a rude awakening. Also we cooked out on the bbq, which was nice but we did not have dishes to serve the 6 people. If the house sleeps 6 there should be service for 6. We would refer this property to others and as a matter of fact, some guy walked up to us on the beach and asked us if we liked it because he had some friends coming that were booked into it. Thanks for sharing.

Perfect location steps from the water. Breezy palm trees right in front of porch. Fantastic!
