Singing Sands provided such a peaceful setting I thought I would never go home. The architecture in the cabanas is perfect, open and spacious with louvered windows so you can get both air and privacy. Mexican basins add colorful eye catchers and the minimalist setting is perfect. You can hear the ocean and the palms for a great night's sleep.... More

This is an ideal location for visiting the Placencia peninsula. Rooms are clear and well kept, very quaint with thatched roof and wooden floors. The grounds are perfectly manicured. Their dock is an ideal spot for lying in the hammock and unwinding at the end of the day. The restaurant is outstanding, meals over 5 days were perfect. The staff... More

We loved our week’s stay in mid-April (before the kids and bugs are out). Although we’ve visited lots of places, we have thought for the first time ever that we would make a conscious effort to return to Belize and to the Singing Sands Inn. Owners Mike, Maya, and Hyon and her husband work very hard to anticipate guests’ needs... More

After a week sailing around the barrier reef, we wanted to remain as far as possible from daily life but needed comfortable surroundings. We found all this at the Singing Sands: lovely cabanas, simple but thoughtfully equipped, exquisite taste displayed everywhere, marvelous local architecture and crafts. The beach is right there, plus a beautiful pool shaded by flowers and palms.... More

The place is a little off the beaten path and so worth it. There are only a couple of rooms here, I think like 10 or something, but the atmosphere is something out of a novel. The rooms are clean and comfortable without feeling overwhelming. The views are amazing and the atmosphere makes you forget about daily life, as people... More

Our stay was 10 nights in a private Cabana. The Cabanas were very nice,simple, and just yards away from the beach. They were cleaned and stocked daily with clean towels and toiletries. We loved the nice quiet and quaint setting. There were many places for one to go to read a book, layout, or take a nap in one of... More

We stayed for 7 nights at the Singing Sands resort. All but 1 night was in Cabana 1, a lovely room away from the others and right on the beach! Singing Sands is not for everyone- if you want quiet, few people (they are a small establishment) and don't mind not having all the amenities then this place is great.... More

The Staff at Singing Sands are professional and very friendly. They do everything they can to make you comfortable and happy. A very relaxing setting. I would recommend Singing Sands and plan to go back. It may not be for everyone ONLY because it is 7 miles away from Placencia. I spent one day in Placencia which was enough.

Upon our arrival at Singing Sands, we were greeted by a "welcome" sign. This was a lovely start to our stay at this wonderful, quiet resort. The cottages were very nice, the pool was perfect, the beach was like a postcard, and the restaurant was lovely. Complimenting the beautiful facility, the staff were friendly, for example when one of the... More
