My daughter and I stayed at Singing Sands Inn in May 2013 for a week. Due to a work conflict for her we had to reschedule for three weeks after our initial dates. Despite being told that there probably would not be a problem re-booking our room for the original week because it was prime whale shark viewing season, there... More

We truly enjoyed our recent five night stay at the Singing Sands. One thing that they really do well, and I think it's rare to find, is combining a casual atmosphere with a touch of sophistication and at a reasonable price. We loved so many things about it: - the tranquil setting (especially beautiful in the morning when the water... More

We chose Singing Sands restaurant as the venue for our wedding reception, on May 7. We knew serving a group of 50 people in the small community of Maya Beach would require a lot of organization, preparation, attention to detail, and commitment - and Singing Sands delivered!! Hyon leads the team of excellent staff, she made every effort to ensure... More

We visited Singing Sands Inn for our honeymoon and were totally pleased with every aspect of our accomodation. It's a small, peaceful resort that had everthing to make sure we had a great time. Since there were only 8-10 rooms, most of the time you feel like you have the whole place to yourself. The beach, pool, pier, and bar... More

The appetizers and all the meals were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. In particular all those having the Thai Fish raved about it, definately the best fish dish we had during our stay... More

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
