Celebrating an anniversary, my wife and I chose to spend a week in Ambergris Caye staying at Xanadu Island Resort. Arrival/Check-In Our flight into Belize City came in late due to a 2 hour departure delay out of Dallas. As such, our arrival to Xanadu on Ambergris Caye came after office hours for the resort. Still, the resort staff was... more

It's been a few months since my stay at Xanadu and it still brings a smile to my face thinking about the trip. The place is beautiful, the owners/staff are wonderful. Everyone that works there is on top of it all, yet never too intrusive with their service. They are there to offer assistance with anything including booking tours and... more

Small, private, and very charming. Loved the ambience and attention to detail. Sits way back from the road and all rooms face the lagoon/ocean. Every 'room' is a condo with full-kitchen - grocery stores are within walking distance. We stayed in a loft unit with a king bed and full bath upstairs and a queen bed with full bath on... more

We relied on Tripadvisor reviews in choosing Xanadu. they hit it on the mark. Xanadu has a great location (about 0.5 miles south of town) and a relaxed tropical feel. The staff is very helpful in setting up activities on the fly such as snorkeling (go with their recommended guides). It was the best snorkling I have done, hands down.... more

We just returned from a 7-night stay at Xanadu in early July and it was wonderful -- from start to finish. It is a fantastic property , relaxing and beautiful, lived up to and even better than the photos we saw on their website (which is why we picked it). Our first trip to Belize. The resort is located down... more

My family and I recently stayed at Xanadu hotel. It was a wonderful choice. The staff were terrific (Susan, Stacy and Ingrid were very helpful). We arrived late on the first night and the staff stayed past their work hours to greet us w/ warm smiles and showed us our rooms. They have a great tour desk/lobby and can arrange... more

Relaxing is not usually the word used to describe holidaying with three children under 10 but at the Xanadu resort relaxing was exactly the right discription. The condos are great with plenty of room and everything we needed. The staff were amazing no request seemed too difficult. Everyone was friendly and we all appreciated how painless they made a room... more

My wife and 3 children have stayed at Xanadu every summer for the past 4 years. The staff is very friendly and extremely professional. The resort is outstanding, with a wonderful pool and beautiful landscaping. The management has excellent relationship with the top guides in the area for fishing, snorkeling and SCUBA. This is a first class operation. 5 star... more
