Guest Experiences at The Flying Toucan – Real stories and reviews from travelers who stayed with us.
At The Flying Toucan, our guests share one thing in common — they fall in love with the charm, comfort, and unbeatable location of our boutique cabanas on the Placencia Sidewalk, just steps from the Caribbean Sea.
Whether you’re visiting for a weekend escape, a remote-work getaway, or an extended stay in paradise, here’s what guests are saying about their experience.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Perfect mix of beach life and local charm”
“We couldn’t have picked a better spot. The Flying Toucan is right in the heart of Placencia — we walked everywhere for coffee, dinner, and sunset drinks. The cabana had everything we needed — comfy bed, full kitchen, and a little balcony where we had breakfast every morning. It felt like our own little home by the sea.”
— Samantha & Luke, Toronto, Canada
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Ideal for remote work in paradise”
“I stayed for three weeks while working remotely and it was perfect. The Wi-Fi was fast, the apartment was quiet and comfortable, and the beach was only a minute away. After work, I’d stroll down the Sidewalk or relax at the Beach Club. The Flying Toucan gave me the freedom to work and live the Belize dream.”
— Jonathan M., Austin, Texas
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Spotless, modern, and so well located”
“Everything was spotless and thoughtfully set up — the kitchen had all the essentials, and having a washer and dryer on site made longer stays so easy. It’s rare to find a place that’s both central and peaceful, but The Flying Toucan nailed it.” — Leah & Chris, London, UK
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Our favorite stay in Belize”
“We traveled all over Belize and this was by far our favorite place. The Flying Toucan combines the charm of the village with boutique comfort. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we loved having access to the Beach Club. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Placencia.” — The Carters, Atlanta, GA
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Feels like home — only with palm trees!”
“From the moment we arrived, it felt like home. Everything was beautifully designed, and you can tell the owners care about the little details — even an Alexa speaker and Smart TV! We spent evenings on the balcony listening to the ocean breeze. Already planning to come back next winter.” — Maria L., Vancouver, BC
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Great value and location — walk everywhere!”
“You’re right on the Sidewalk but tucked away enough for peace and quiet. Loved waking up, grabbing a smoothie, and being on the beach in two minutes. The Flying Toucan made it easy to experience real Placencia — local, colorful, and relaxed.” — Eric D., Denver, CO
