Everything surpassed our expectations. We came here as new diver because we wanted an operation we could trust and we found that here.

Just keep doing what you’re doing… The Mayan tour history was incredible; the guide was extremely knowledgeable and profoundly connected to his heritage.

Hamanasi helped introduce my family to the Garifuna & Maya people of Belize. Everything is so close – the mountains, caves, waterfalls, animals, ruins – this is such a peaceful country with rich culture and a people that cares about the environment. What a hidden gem! Thank you!

Michael, Menlo Park, CA

This is one of the most wonderful places I have ever stayed. I honestly cannot think of anything to suggest. Many resorts claim to be Eco-friendly but most do a poor job at it. You really live it and it is very refreshing. Excellent effort. Thank you for a wonderful and memorable week.

Sandy, Underville, VT

Doing a wonderful job, we love Hamanasi and the staff. Made us feel like part of the Hamanasi family.

My husband and I went to Hamanasi for our honeymoon in October of 2022 and even with a HURRICANE & evacuation it was honestly the most magical experience of my life. The staff takes such good care of you, everyone is so nice and takes time to get to know the guests. Food is delicious & they are very attentive to dietary needs & preferences. My husband has celiac disease & requires a gluten free diet and they were awesome making sure we were taken care of, down to little details like having gluten free cookies available for us on the excursions. Could not recommend more.

We 10/10 recommend Hamanasi! We spent 6 days there with our family of 6, and everybody absolutely loved it. The rooms are amazing - we stayed in the treehouses, and it was so quiet and peaceful. The service is phenomenal, possibly some of the best we've experienced. Everybody was friendly and helpful without being overwhelming. We loved the location, far enough from the highly touristed areas but not too far. The food was excellent with a wide variety of options at each meal. The activities are well-planned and fitted to your interests. The property is gorgeous - the grounds are perfectly maintained, and we felt 100% safe the entire time. The ease of the reservation process and planning was excellent. We will definitely return!

Make that Reservation!

It isn't often that an experience surpasses all expectations, but that is what happened at Hamanasi! From our airport pickup and first lunch to the bittersweet departure on our last day, our experience was basically perfect. It's a beautiful resort, tucked perfectly into the trees so you get the best of the jungle and the ocean all in one. The food is superb, and I can't say enough about how genuinely warm the staff is. We came with three kids (teen, preteen and elementary age), and they all enjoyed it - especially the Deluxe Treehouse where we stayed and the pool! We were able to snorkel, go cave tubing, and visit Mayan ruins, all with the best guides. Recommendations - spending some time at the end of the dock watching for manatees, shopping at GariMaya, which is an easy 10 minute walk from the resort, and games in the bar during happy hour. We can't wait to visit again!

We had a great experience at Hamanasi. I’ve read through a lot of other reviews and agree with the positive comments about the rooms and the staff. I wanted to add some additional points that I think others may have missed. We were very happy with all the meals. My wife and I preferred not to eat in the restaurant for breakfast and wanted something lighter as well. The staff had no issue packing me a to-go container of fresh cut fruit and I grabbed some breads (muffins, johnny cakes, banana bread…) and coffee to take back to our treehouse. We thought the portions for dinner were good for a three-course meal. I always had room for dessert (the chef’s choice varied each day). I left full but not stuffed. I do want to point out that on our first night, they said if we wanted half-portions or up-sized servings that they would accommodate us. I don’t want those with big appetites to think they will be hungry. They also served bread of the day with dinner which varied daily. The other thing I want to emphasize is the small group sizes for the excursions. On one snorkel trip, our boat went out with eight people, and we split into groups of four with both groups having a dive master. On my second snorkel trip, it was threatening rain, so several guests dropped out. They still took the boat out with just two of us. For the land adventures, both of ours started at 8:00 am. This allowed us to avoid crowds and still have a big part of the day left for relaxing after we returned. For the Mayflower Waterfall Hike, we staggered two vans from Hamanasi. My group had seven people with two guides. We reached the top of the hike and had the swimming pool all to ourselves. For the Cave Tubing (this was extra), just my wife and I went. This was a destination that the cruise ships also hit, but we arrived and were the only people in the parking lot. We actually trekked into the caves to explore and swam through some caverns, so this was much more than a leisurely tube drifting through the caves, and most of it was done without anyone else around. Many of the guides and staff have worked for Hamanasi many years, so it feels like they treat their employees well and that is important to us.

We just got back from this lovely resort. Everything was wonderful! The staff goes above and beyond to make your stay fabulous. The food was great - you can ask for anything and they will try to accommodate any special requests. Excisions were amazing. All in all this is an incredible resort and we’d highly recommend it.
