    You might look into Xanadu, very nice, good beach close to, yet far enough away from town.
    The Phoenix, or Vitoria House are also great options for dives/non divers.
    My wife is a non diver and she loves Xanadu and Victoria house. I have not stayed at The Phoenix, but have seen the facility and it is top notch, the staff at ALL of the resorts are superb.

    I've been looking at Phoenix and seems very nice.

    What's the beach situation there? Nice sand, calm water, etc? Wife/kids don't want rocky or ironshore sort of beaches. Think "Corona Commercial" and you'll have an idea of their expectations.

    the beaches north of San Pedro town. It's less crowded to the north and the beaches and water are clean. Classic "tropical paradise" look and feel. White sand, blue clear water. You can swim off the beach and not get run over by boats. Go at least as far as Journey's End. I own a lot just past there. Nice place.

    Hamanasi was the resort we chose several years ago, before my gf discovered she liked scuba diving after all. I recommend it for a mixed group such as yours.

    Hamansai is further south and on the mainland. Easy access to jaguar preserve, jugles, river tours, and Inca/Mayan ruins. I got to dive, gf went everywhere else, and snorkeled. We both had a ball.

    Nice quiet resort, with beautiful setting and some really nice personal hosts.

    Ambergris Caye is a great place for divers and non divers.

    If the kids are into snorkeling there are day trips for that or they can see lots of fish just at the end end of docks. Ramon's dock is well known for that.
    For all your Ambergris Caye, Belize, cheap lodging, diving and drying out needs. www.pedroshotel.com and www.pedrosdiveclub.com
