Jadewinds Macaw Beach House

BEACH HOUSE WITH KAYAKS, PICTURE POSTCARD BEACH AND HOME COMFORTS!

Newly refurbished, beautifully appointed open plan beach house right on the beach in the idyllic neighborhood of Maya Beach.

Features 1 king bed, a sofa, inside living area, kitchen and veranda overlooking the Caribbean Sea.

Powerful air conditioning, ceiling fans, large screen television with streaming apps, high speed internet, imported linens and a hammock to swing in right on the veranda overlooking the coconut palms and exquisite beach.

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 room 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 Macaw 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.

**Take one of our kayaks across to False Caye, a tiny coral fringed island opposite
** Dive the Caribbean Sea and marvel at the pristine underwater world
** Take the Monkey River Tour, a boat ride through the lagoon to spot Manatees, Howler Monkeys, and Crocodiles.
** Walk amongst ancient history at Nim Li Punit (Big Hat) and Big Falls an hour away!
** Try your hand at sport fishing or angling with a local guide with a day at sea to 'hook and cook' to your heart's content
** Zip line through the wild jungle and dive into the waterfalls of Mayan King
** Explore the exquisite riverside trails of Kendal on horseback
** Learn Mayan culture, food and traditions on a guided tour
** Hike through the phenomenal Cockscomb Wildlife Sanctuary or Mayflower Bocawina National Park, both within an hour of the peninsula

Jadewinds is owned by Anthony and your local host in Belize is Kimberley.

We really enjoyed our stay. The cabana was in a wonderful area, with a restaurant next door. Very quiet area. Loved the thunder storm over the sea. Leo the property manager picked us up at the airport. He answered all our questions about the area. He also took us up to the local Maya Ruins. Would advise any one to stay here.

As Great As Remembered
I stayed at Macaw Beach House in August 2022 and couldn't wait to go back. It's such a comfortable, clean, and private place in a great location. Being right on a beautiful beach with your own palapa is a slice of heaven. Macaw House offers lots of privacy and there are great restaurants within walking distance. Marvin met us for our earlier-than-scheduled arrival and was very responsive during our entire stay. Anthony was also great in answering all of our questions in advance and handling our booking. I l can't wait to go back again and hope this special spot maintains all of its charm.

Sufficiently Comfy
This two-story unit was very comfortable and private. I loved having two bathrooms! Unit can accommodate a much longer stay. Using the WhatsApp, I was able to communicate with manager on-site. This is located on the east side of the peninsula, making the beach part not inviting for swimming due to the kelp and trash that washes up on the shoreline.

Perfect place and location!
My husband and I spent a week at the Macaw house in Maya Beach. We feel that we could not have found a better place. Granted, the kitchen and bathrooms could use an update, but everything was very functional, and we cooked dinner every other day. The location offers gorgeous views of the beach and surroundings. We were able to swim every day, as the water was warm and had enough waves to make it fun, but not unsafe. Leo and Marvin were great for everything we needed and for organizing day trips. The proximity to the Green Parrot beach restaurant was a big plus, as we could just walk next door to have lunch or dinner. Also grocery store and bakery within walking distance. We rented a car and drove from Belize city airport, which was about 2:40 hours via the Coastal Highway. Still under construction, so a little slower, but shorter than going through Belmopan. Placencia is a quaint little town with great cute places to eat and enjoy the surroundings. We would love to come back.

Great Place
What more can you say. ON. THE. BEACH. What a view! This is an older home but nicely decorated and well maintained. Relaxing environment. Nice kitchen, but hey, who prepares meals when you are on vacation. Maya Beach and nearby Placencia have some great restaurants. Beach chairs and shade shelter provided. If you have multiple electronic devices, bring an extension cord. The downstair room has a damp musty odor as in older houses but the upstairs is fine. Keep that in mind if you have breathing problems or allergies.

Adequate lodging for a few days.
The place is dated, but it was clean and functional. The location is great. The bathroom needs a gut-job and remodel. It really didn’t have the cleanest feel, expecially the shower. We didn’t pay for five-star accomodations, so no real complaints, just letting people know what to expect. The only real problem was the beach. It was essentially unusable due to the trash washed up. It had not been cleaned/raked in quite some time. There was even a syringe laying there nicely in the piles. Yuk! Leo was great. They were very responsive. In fairness, I did not complain about the beach at the time we were there. If we had, I feel they likely would have done something about it.

Not as good as listed
Was not as promised! It said screened in porch. It was not. The air was out our first night. We had to sleep on the porch. Yes, the porch. When we could not reach the manager we contacted the owner by email. He was very unhelpful, The beech was full of seaweed not cleaned to get to the water. The tv did not get local channels and did not have instructions to use it. The inside of the house was ok and it did have a view of beech. The hammocks where rotted. We were not offered compensation for the night we had to sleep on the the porch because the house was hot . The house was not bad after the air was repaired.

Beautiful property
A lovely place to stay. Right on the water, walking distance to restaurants. My only disappointment was the cleanliness. Dead cockroaches in the frig (I understand this is the tropics so bugs in the house don’t bother me) and what looked like gecko droppings in the kitchen drawers. Again, don’t mind the geckos, just wondering if the place had been cleaned several days before our arrival. Despite this, I would return to this beautiful place.

Overall our stay was wonderful. Unfortunately, the TV did not work, but with the beautiful weather, I doubt we would have watched it very much.
