Traveled with wife and two older teenage boys. Xanadu is a great place to relax, access water excursions from their dock, and explore San Pedro. The golf cart ride to Secret Beach is about 50 mins, even so, the Xanadu is a great place to enjoy Ambergris Caye on a family vacation. We look forward to visiting again!

The staff is WONDERFUL. They try to go above and beyond and are very friendly. I would recommend the resort just based on the staff alone! Thank you for being great!

The room itself is okay. It was very spacious for our family, but does need a little updating. Our oven and our TV didn't work well, and the wifi was not reliable.

Other than that, great stay. Thanks again!

Place was wonderful. We were very happy with the property. The only issue was that we were disappoint in Ambergris Caye (you should go to a different Island) but that's not the hotel fault. If you do need to stay in San Pedro this hotel is fantastic.

We had 2BR, 2BATH apartment. It was very clean and nice. It was pretty dark and we had to use lights even during a day. We get some noise from the unit above. I recommend to get the upstairs unit, it will be quiet and maybe more daylight. Xanadu has nice small heated pool and jacuzzi. The beach is not good for swimming - typical for the 95% of the whole area. The only real beach is Secret Beach 1 hr. away by golf cart or water taxi. No restaurant in Xanadu, just a bar.

We haven't stayed anywhere else on San Pedro Island, but still believe this has to be the best place there. We just loved it and it is the only place we will stay when we go back.

Perfect 3bd villa on the beach!

We had a great experience at Xanadu. I loved that it was on the beach, but also had an in the rainforest feel. The staff's hospitality and service were excellent! They maintained the beach well, one of the few resorts nearby without mounds of sea grass piled up, which really elevated the appearance and experience since it gets stinky. They arranged golf carts and excursions, making all logistics coordination easy. The room had everything we needed, even giving us options for bedroom configurations. Central air made us very comfortable and endless bottled/filtered water was nice to have so easily available.

Xanadu was the perfect place for our family of 5 to stay and we will 100% stay there again when we go back. ALL staff was friendly and more than accommodating. Our 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath was perfect and the kitchen had everything we needed to cook when we rented out the grill on the beach. They handle all of our excursions with ease. We rented a 6 passenger golf cart through the resort and had a minor issue with it not starting, but they were on site to fix it within minutes. The pictures don't do justice. Highly recommend Xanadu. Oh, and we originally had two twin beds in the kids room but after they say my 3 kids pushed the two beds together, they took it upon themselves to switch them out and provide them with a king bed. They were soooo excited!

Xanadu is absolutely heavenly. The property is beautiful and well-kept and every single person there was incredibly nice. You feel like you're in the jungle but in a beautiful cozy bed with updated bathrooms, and an incredible heated pool (and I mean HEATED), a hot tub with a killer view of the ocean...exceeds all expectations. Drinks are amazing, just know there is no restaurant on site, but you can easily walk to multiple ones.

A beautiful serene getaway

Fabulous grounds! It feels like a jungle getaway. The pool, hot tub and beach area were super relaxing. We snorkled a few times and the boat picked us up right at our dock. You can walk down the beach to town for dinner. The staff was exceptionally friendly. The actual units were fabulous too. We prepared some meals and ate then on our large balcony. We would stay here again!

The staff helped to ensure that we were comfortable and acclimated to the area and how to get around. Plenty of places to eat and venture to. We also did a glass bottom boat ride that was arranged by the resort staff and the boat picked us up at the end of the dock. Incredible!!! We will definitely go back again.

This lovely resort was a dream come true. The grounds were immaculate, the staff was lovely, and the location quiet and safe. We stayed for almost a week with our 7 year old. We had a unit with two bedrooms and a kitchen. We walked to the grocery and bakery, and several close restaurants. There are diving shops in walking distance as well. For a few days we rented a golf cart, and explored Secret Beach and a few other spots in town. We had a private boat tour where our son was able to snorkel, fish, and look for manatees. Thank you for such a memorable vacation!

Amazing!!! I almost don’t want to write this so people won’t catch on to my secret spot (haha) When you first get there you are offered a complementary drank which was amazing. The pick up and drop off service they offer is a major plus and helps take away some of your worry. The accommodations were great ac was very cold and I slept like a baby in the comfortable bed that I wanted to bring back to the states with me :) Everyone is very friendly and the staff is top notch and always willing to help with any questions you may have. We loved the pool and took a snorkeling trip and the captain picked us up right at the dock. The landscaping at this place was truly beautiful iguanas and lizards roam free and just so peaceful even though it’s very close to town but definitely doesn’t feel like it. We can’t wait to return.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Xanadu Island resort. The hotel is hidden in a lush setting. The bedrooms are comfortable although they are not as roomy as they look on the pictures.
The staff is very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. There are golf carts for rent and bikes are complimentary, as well as kayaks. The pool is very pleasant and quiet. The only downside is the company used by the hotel for snorkeling, Lil'Alfonso. The guide is rude, arrogant and obnoxious. He makes you feel miserable when you share an opinion he doesn't agree with, and he doesn't respect the marine life. He dived and disturbed a stingray resting on the sand just to show off. His behaviour was despicable.
We still enjoyed our tour because the place is just unbelievable.
I would definitely go back to Xanadu Island Resort!

Xanadu Island Resort sets themselves apart with top notch customer service and cleanliness at the resort. We were welcomed from the minute we got there until we left. They arrange every detail for you so you have an amazing experience. The golf cart rentals are significantly cheaper going thru the resort to rent. They also booked several excursions and arrange transportation for activities, as well as taxis to and from the airport when you arrive and leave. Grocery stores are a few minutes walk. We got a 2 bed/bath with kitchen and made breakfast in our villa. We will definitely return in the future!

Xanadu’s motto is a bit of luxury in harmony with nature [paraphrasing]. This is absolutely true. The resort is so well kept & the suites have everything you’ll need for a stay! I was so happy when they told me they’d have a pack n play ready in the room so we wouldn’t need to bring one from home for our baby!

The process for renting bikes, kayaks, etc is effortless and the front desk is very helpful in booking activities and providing recommendations.

Oh! And the pool. And the hot tub! And the beautiful string lights wrapped around festive palm trees. And a great bar!

You’ll never want to leave.

We loved staying at Xanadu! We loved our 2 floor, 2 BR apt with a hammock on our patio. We especially loved the fact that the upstairs (where the bedrooms are) was actually colder than the rest of the apartment - great for sleeping. There is a great bakery and a couple of small grocery stores within short walking distance but you should rent a golf cart for dining out. There were 2 restaurants we found that offer transportation for dinner (Victoria House and Hidden Treasure). Both were good.

The beach is not a real beach (which did not bother us at all). The sand is just a light covering over a cement pad. It made it easy to walk on and it was meticulously raked every day so it looked great.

We enjoyed the pool area and pool bar. Everything was great, and the staff was helpful in booking excursions and dinner reservations. The grounds were well-kept as well.
