Hi - My boyfriend and I are trying to decide on a hotel for a wk vacation in Belize in early december. We think we've decided on Ambergris Caye as the right mix of relaxation and activities. Any input on White Sands Cove Resort? Belizean Shore? or Xanadu? Other suggestions? Looking to enjoy the beach, pool, snorkeling, and excursions.

You've probably already decided, but, I'm on Ambergris now, not spending much time on the computer.

Here are some thoughts.

Belizean Shores is about three miles  north of town, White Sands Cove, maybe two.  It doesn't sound like that's very far, but, if it's been raining, the so called road north becomes almost impassable.  That means you'll either need to walk, bike or take a water taxi to town.  If you plan on just hanging at the resort, this probably won't matter, although food will cost you more.

Xanadu is less than 1 1/2 miles south of town on a paved road.  Easy access by foot, bike, golf cart or regular cab.  Downside for Xanadu is there's a seawall, swimming will be off the dock.  That's actually true of a lot of places, even if there is a beach, the water is shallow a long way out, and there's sea grass growing.
