We just returned from the most beautiful, exotic, restful and "amazing on every level", trip to Roatan and specifically to the Xbalanque Resort. This beautiful boutique hotel met and exceeded our every wish! The architecture, the gorgeous contemporary furnishings, the art, the pools, location, rooftop decks, food and drinks are only topped by the graciousness of owner Patsy and her... More

When my girlfriend and I came upon Roatan, as a tropical destination to celebrate our 12 year anniversary, we researched through a great deal of the islands diverse accomodations, from full on resorts to quaint cabinas; Xbalanque quickly found its way to the top of our list. From what we could see on the internet, it looked like the perfect... More

Several years ago, I had the opportunity to experience Xbalanque Resort and I didn't think it could possibly get any better. I was wrong. This place blows me away. It's constantly improving with new, amazing possibilities. The cuisine, the drinks, the adventures, and, most importantly, the people! I haven't had that much fun in a long time. I look forward...

This was my first time in Roatan and feel blessed to have experienced Xbalanque. This is truly a special place. A first visit which will have to be repeated! I traveled with my 14 yr son. Xbalanque is the place for anyone wanting relaxation and tranquility. Immaculate, comfortable rooms, the convenience of a well equipped kitchen, lovely well manicured landscaping... More

This is where we wanted to be! After stumbling upon Xbalanque during a walk down the beach, this lovely boutique hotel was calling our name! We had unfortunately booked and checked into a larger all inclusive type resort that was not meeting our expectations. Patsy graciously gave us a tour of the grounds and room available. We fell in love!... More

For my first trip to Roatan, Xbalanque was better than I could hope for! My husband and I visited over Semana Santa (week before Easter), which is known to be one of the busiest weeks in Roatan. We enjoyed being walking distance from all the action of West Bay and West End, but loved being able to retreat to the... More

This is without a doubt the most beautiful hotel on the island. The location can't be beat...right on the beach between West Bay and West End. Water taxis run up and down the coast all day long for only $3 per person. The hotel is spectacular. There are 2 bedroom suites with kitchen, living and balcony, all incredibly luxurious. There...

We have just returned from our first visit to Roatan and feel so lucky to have found this place. My husband and I travel a lot. We prefer luxury accommodations but without the glitz or crowds or price. I was having trouble finding anything like that in Roatan until I stumbled onto Xbalanque. We stayed our first three nights here... More

It's impossible to write a review for Xbalanque that doesn't sound like a broken record. It is THAT amazing, BUT I can write about the ambience, the staff, the surrounding amenities, and especially the owners that will insure anyone the best vacation spot available. Upon arriving, the guest is greeted by 'calming tranquility'. Patsy is an interior designer (among many... More
