Property is clean and a beautiful location. Needs a store/gift shop for essentials. Nothing available on site and you either must rent a golf cart for an hour ride into town or a cab. $50/$100 USD respectively. Island itself needs alot of work. Nothing is priced Belizean, everything is USD, and expensive.

Quiet Beach Resort

Our stay at X’tan Ha was great. The staff are friendly and very helpful. The rooms were comfortable and clean. It has a nice beach and the Mexico Rocks snorkeling site is just offshore. There’s a nice restaurant and bar that’s out on the dock. It is quiet and is a fair way north of San Pedro on a bumpy dirt road, so you’ll need to rent a golf cart to get to most places.

The drive to San Pedro is about 25 minutes or about 8 miles in a golf cart. There is about 4 miles of unpaved road which has many pot holes and is real rough.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Very affordable resort a bit off the beaten path on Ambergris Caye. The staff were extremely helpful, the room was large and well maintained, the beach was cleaned daily. The kitchen was fully equipped for light cooking (no oven, but a 2 burner stove top). They provided a huge cooler of drinking water. The main issue for this resort is location. It is a 40 minute ride on a bumpy dirt road from San Pedro. The only walkable dining option is the very expensive resort restaurant, or cooking in your room. However, for many excursions you can get picked up directly from the resort. We would definitely consider staying here again, especially if they pave the road. Judging from the amount of construction going on in the area, I'm guessing the road will be paved within a couple of years.

Great spot away from the bustle of SAN. Pedro. Quite a long drive but lots to do in the area. Tours will pick you up by boat at the dock which is great. The staff are amazing. Super helpful. The bar is right on the dock and Alex is a great bartender. Sheila in the restaurant is great also. Must see nearby, eco museum. And aces wildlife rescue ( Christina)

It’s very small and very, very far away. Nothing like what the pictures show. It has only one small restaurant with one menu. Very high prices! There is NO entertainment at all and nothing to do there. The 2 small swimming pool have very cold water. No jacuzzi. It’s so far out located with nothing near by. You must go about 45 minutes by golf cart ($80 for 6-8 hour rental) to buy anything you might need. It takes about one hour to get to town. Road is unpaved and in very bad shape.

We arrived home today and what we thought were sand fea bites turn out to be bed bug bites. She complained that she thought they were in the bed. The staff was great and took the time to interact with guest. The roads are not the best but if you're looking for a get away. Please check your bed carefully. I had no bites so they are on one side. I would give it a 2nd chance.
