Okay, so I hate to trash the place completely because, Mike, the owner is a nice guy and really trying to make a go of it. I do feel, however, a need for full disclosure so that others are not disappointed as we (and our neighbors) were. We were two families that had just come from Chan Chich which was... more

We just got back from a week-long retreat at Xaman Ek--it was really wonderful. We stayed in the cabana that has a great ocean view and an amazing breeze. We loved it here--since it's not in the middle of town and not a huge resort, you have privacy and space to just drag your toes in the sand. The staff... more

All the positive reviews below are right on point. This was our third trip to Ambergris/Caulker in the last three years and this resort is, by far, the best one we've stayed at. One thing that hasn't been mentioned much in the previous posts is how easy it is to run your dives from here. The owners have a dive... more

Okay, I just have to say that my husband and I just spent our honeymoon with Mike and Vicki at Xaman Ek, and we absolutely could not have picked a better place! Mike and Vicki are so friendly, and the small setting and close atmosphere make you feel like you're right at home! Mike makes fantastic banana waffles and conch... more

Truly I was hesitant at first due to the fact that the Northern hotels are a little bit away from San Pedro. Normally this would be fine but I'm 8 months pregnant so my husband and I weren't sure how hard it would be to get here etc... The trip advisor reviews are really what encouraged us to book as... more

My husband asked me to find a small secluded resort for a romantic getaway. After 5 days of jungle adventure at Mopan River Resort we arrived here. It was exactly what we were looking for. We stayed in one of the lovely beach cabanas with a view of the pool, the white sand beach and the crystal blue ocean for... more

We stayed at Xaman Ek and realy enjoyed it, Wonderful location, great staff. The rooms were quite large, and had everything we could have ever needed. Great lunch and breakfast mini menu, not huge, but at least a dozen items that were delicious. Snorkeling with kayaks right from shore, we also took a catamaran sail on El Gato that was... more

We had an extremely relaxing time at Xaman Ek in February. If you like peace and quiet this is the place to stay. We felt that closer to the town was too built up and touristy. Xaman Ek's location is much more unspoilt and has much better beaches. There is a spa on the beachfront and although there is no... more

What makes this place so special? The people, the location and the spa, in that order. Owners Vicki and Mike are awesome - laid back, friendly, they treat you like family!! This attitude carries over to the rest of the staff at the hotel and spa. Whatever activities you came to Belize for, they will advise you and hook you... more
