We're a group of 3 traveling to Ambergris in late Feb/early March.
So far, what seems to look best to us are the Tropica, Banana Beach, and SunBreeze. I've been told that a pool is important since the beaches aren't the most swimmable, so that's one thing the 3 have in common.
Tropica advertises a great beach- is that so? A great beach would be a bonus.
One thing Banana Beach has going for it is the size and a fridge and micro, but is it far from town?
Also, we're planning to do most of the legwork to see what we want, but my traveling partners feel strongly about using a travel agent to tie it all together.
We're looking to spend 6 days/5nights in Ambergris and 4 days/3 nights in Cayo. We'd really like to do the cave tubing thing and Ian Anderson's and Banana Bank seem to be what we want. Any opinions on that? "real" people feedback is so important to us. If you stayed there- what did you enjoy most? What did you enjoy least?
TIA!

Hi, I highly recommend Ian's cave trip, it is great. And I have sent a lot of folks to Banana Bank and stayed myself numerous times and loved it. It is great to spend a few nights in the jungle, to hear the sounds at night, horseride through the jungle, explore ruins, etc. A great idea to spend some time on the island and a few nights in the jungle to see the other part of Belize.

I have done the jungle first then island and visa versa. My preference is the jungle first. You are more active in the jungle, it is hotter and it's great to kick back and swing in a hammock on the island and spending time climbing ruins, exploring caves, horseriding...
