Belize Dominates Trip Advisor’s Top 25
posted (January 20, 2012)
Last night we told you about Trip Advisor's "2012 Best Overall Hotel In The World" - Belize's own Phoenix Resort located in San Pedro. But what we didn't tell you was that this wasn't the only spot secured on the world's top 25 list; Hamanasi Adventure and Dive Resort, located in Hopkins, captured the #3 spot, making it the third best overall hotel in the world - and giving Belize two of the top three spots.

It was described simply as "blissful" with 21 rooms and located on hundreds of feet of beautiful beach, offering both rainforest and beach adventures. If these awards weren't enough, in the list of Top 25 hotels in Central America, Belize captured an incredible 11 awards, 6 of which were in the top 10, helping to make this little jewel truly shine.

The Phoenix Resort in San Pedro and the Hamanasi Adventure and Dive Resort in Hopkins received the top two awards for Central America, but the Xanadu Island Resort Belize, also in San Pedro, followed right behind as #3, being described as having "great rooms and excellent staff". Coco Plum Island Resort located in Dangriga came in at #5, and Turneffe Island Resort closely followed at #7, two spots below that was Victoria House located in San Pedro, Belize, Then Belcampo Lodge in Punta Gorda secured #13, with Las Terazzas Resort in San Pedro, The Lodge at Chaa Creek in San Ignacio, Matachica Beach Resort in San Pedro, and Grand Caribe Belize Resort and Condominiums in Ambergris Caye, receiving numbers 20, 23, 24, and 25, respectively.

Now, we note that there are all kinds of tops 25 lists, but Trip Advisor is considered the most influential in helping travelers make decisions, and the top spot is highly coveted.
