What Our Friends Say About Us
Overall Rating
Every single aspect of Hamanasi is absolutely top notch. The entire staff here provided the best service I have ever experienced. The snorkeling and dining are even better than we expected. We are already booking for next year!
Hamanasi is a truly unique experience. If your vacation goal is to lounge on the beach soaking up the rays while a cabana boy caters to your every whim, this is not the place to visit. That is our usual go-to for tropical vacations, so the stay at Hamanasi caught us a bit off guard, but I absolutely do not regret the decision to spend our ten year anniversary here. Rather than sunbathing and relaxation, Hamanasi feels more geared toward getting out into the surrounding areas and encountering new and exciting adventures. The vast majority of the guests leave the property on a daily basis. Although there is an extensive menu of excursions to choose from, the majority of those are active/exercise-centric. For a couple of middle-aged, out-of-shape Northerners, this posed a challenge. Lord knows we need more exercise, and we did end up enjoying the experience, but it wasn't what we thought we had signed up for. What I've learned from this experience is that I need to pay more attention to the information on the website, and less time getting swept up in the beautiful photographs. If adventure and new experiences is what you're after in your tropical vacation, I absolutely 100% recommend Hamanasi Resort in Belize.
This resort feels like a much more luxurious experience than what we paid for it. Their commitment to sustainability and support to the local community is admirable. The small size feels intimate, and the very friendly staff takes care of every need. Hamanasi is the perfect blend of rainforest and ocean for those looking to stay at a single location. There were lots of great options for add on tours in addition to our package. The food was plentiful and delish. I loved the bartender creations. Guides were knowledgeable and safe. My room was so cute, and the hammock on the balcony was a nice touch. I felt very safe and pampered during my week here. Great for singles, couples, and families. 10/10, would stay again!
Picture crystal clear waters, sandy beaches, palm trees swaying with a tropical breeze that surround a pristine resort providing infinite amenities for a perfect stay. This is Hamanasi. Every detail is thoughtfully considered from immaculate grounds, beautiful rooms, a peaceful pool overlooking the ocean, delicious food, and endless activities for the adventurous or relaxed traveler. Hamanasi is perfect for any traveler. We absolutely loved staying in a tree house and took advantage of many adventures. We loved our snorkeling trips and jungle hikes with knowledgeable, dedicated, fun guides. The staff at Hamanasi is just as warm and welcoming as it’s beautiful setting. We will definitely be back!

Our new favorite resort!
We’ve been to Hamanasi twice. The first time was truly a magical experience that left us wanting to return in the near future. As we prepared for our second visit, we were hopeful that our first experience had not been a fluke nor that we had romanticized the experience. We can definitely confirm that the experience was not a fluke or romanticized. It truly is a magical experience. The rooms are spacious with lots of natural light and so much attention to detail. The beds are the most comfortable beds we’ve ever slept in away from home. In fact, they are so comfortable that we reached out to guest services and found out the brand so we could purchase one for ourselves. Further, as Hamanasi prides itself on environmental sustainability, it was such a pleasant surprise to learn that the beds they use are all made from organic materials! The views are spectacular. We’ve stayed in rooms 2 and 9, both upstairs on the beachfront. To wake up in the morning, step outside on the balcony, which has chairs and a swing, and see, hear, and feel the sea, is breathtaking. The rooms are cleaned daily and there is a turn down service in the evenings. The resort is incredibly quiet, apart from children in the pool, but they’re enjoying themselves and that is fantastic. The grounds are always kept immaculate. We see grounds keeping sweeping and raking the sand every morning to remove fallen leaves and tracks. The pool is cleaned every night as well. You can walk the grounds and be surrounded by towering palms, ferns, and all manner of vegetation. There are numerous coatimundi, agouti, pelicans, birds, and there is a pond that houses crocodiles. The service personnel are extremely friendly and ready to provide you with information, guidance, and cater to your needs with a genuine smile and friendliness. The onsite restaurant is amazing. The food is cooked to order and we’ve had some of the finest meals at this restaurant. From steaks, fish, chicken, vegetarian, there is always something available for any diet. If you need something, you simply ask. They also take your food allergies seriously and confirm your allergies during your first meal to ensure accuracy. Apart from the quality and quantity of the food, the service is beyond measure. Servers know you by name, remember previous conversations, are always quick to engage in conversation if you initiate it, provide attention to detail, and are very friendly. They have so many excursions, we wished we had the time to do them all. We’ve gone snorkeling, bird watching, canoeing, and visited Mayan ruins. Each and every time we went on an excursion, we felt that it wasn’t just an experience but an opportunity to learn. Every guide is so thoroughly knowledgeable about the experience that definitely felt like we learned so much. From the guided snorkeling, yes, a guide directed our snorkeling group where he dove down, pointed at things (fish, sharks, rays, corral) and then surfaced to tell us what we were looking at, to the Mayan ruins tour where our guide, Mayan by ancestry, wove the history with compelling discourse. Sensational experiences. The resort is located near the community of Hopkins, about 2 hours from the airport in Belize City. We ventured into the community on several occasions and found the residents to be friendly and willing to answer questions. There are several grocery stores, numerous restaurants (we highly recommend Ella’s if you’re in town and get hungry), and many opportunities for other excursions such as deep sea fishing. We are already planning our next visit!
This was the perfect place to stay, we had so much fun. Hamanasi is incredibly accommodating and the staff are excellent. Being able to snorkel the reef was amazing. The views are out of this world and the resort itself was beautiful.
Beautiful luxury resort. Hopkins Bay is the best.
Great atmosphere for lunch, love the landscape.
Love the wildlife
