The Great Blue Hole at Lighthouse Reef

My Fiancé and I stayed at X Tan Ha the week of 4/11-4/18/2026. This place is awesome, they take care of all your travel details for tours, shuttles and water taxi or the island hopper flights. We rented a golf cart (strongly suggested) from a company called One Love golf cart rentals at a very reasonable price for the week. The staff goes out of their way to ensure your vacation is top notch. Our only disappointment (not on X Tan Ha) was the sea grass was making the beach smell like rotten eggs and the crystal blue water was not close on the windward side of the Island. You have to go to the Lee ward side of the island like to Secret Beach and Mystico Beach (also strongly recommended). The sea grass was not present 2-3 days before we arrived. We recommend gold cart trips into San Pedro. All in all we would stay here again if we came back to Belize. The beaches and snorkeling were next level. Recommend the Shark Ray alley tour also.

Shaka Caye (pronounced “Key” for the ignorant to proper pronunciation like myself), was absolute paradise. My wife and I had an amazing vacation. Whether you go just to relax on the beach like we did or want to plan as many excursions as possible, there really is something for everyone. The staff are all so kind and helpful. The chef was amazing. Special shoutout to Daisy, Percy, Roddy, and Michael who were there for most of, if not all, of our stay, It’s A+ service, minimal thinking required, just sit back and enjoy. We will definitely come back.
