Luxe grounds and all the good things that many have said.

Incredibly beautiful location, friendliest staff and guides I've ever met who truly make every experience wonderful. The attention to detail is remarkable as well as all of the food and adventures offered. Best snorkelling I've ever done in my life. Truly a paradise!

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!

This was a great place!! A shout out to the bar tenders, the grounds keepers, the house keepers, tour guides, cooking and restaurant staff and front of house! Everyone was very hospitable and very personable. Will definitely be coming back!

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.

Spent five nights here in a deluxe tree house with daily breakfast. We signed up for the package with three adventures (chose scuba diving-2 tank dives) for each, but dropped most lunches and dinners. We had a car and enjoyed most dinners out. Too much to eat otherwise! From our arrival to departure (with special mention to Risa!) we had a fantastic time (even with the rain). The staff make an effort to learn your name (which can be unsettling if you aren’t used to it) and everyone was friendly and welcoming. Darnell and Tony in the Adventure Center got us sorted for our scuba days. On the boat Capt Neal, Garif, Dencil and Hatchet always made sure we were in good hands diving and were attentive, watchful and supportive. Good snacks during our surface interval (cookies and fruit, juice, etc) and fresh towels after each dive. Breakfast was substantial and delicious, with a different daily special. One day we had lunch and dinner and those meals were also delicious. Lorena, Juan, Gabe and Kisha took good care of us. Nice pool. Good library. Take the tour of the carpentry department with Selvin and be amazed at everything they make for the resort. Loved the 15-minute jet lag massage and also the resort’s resident cats. Afternoon or evening soaks in our private jacuzzi were decadent! Immaculate gardens. Tree houses are spotless. Ample umbrellas across the property if you get caught without one. Everything about our time here was fantastic!

Amazing location and service. Staff treats you like family and there are so many offerings for adventures or just laying out and relaxing in a quiet environment. There are no TVs but there is WiFi.

We stayed in a tree house and thoroughly enjoyed it! The staff were fantastic helping us choose the best adventures and even helped plan something custom. Excellent food and drinks. It’s not a huge resort but so much to do and enjoy.

Absolutely fantastic stay. Great location (albeit isolated), right on the beach, with lots of space to relax without crowds. The staff is amazing: At every turn they greet you by name and are engaging without overstepping. Quite a balancing act! To know: Rooms do not have blackout shades The jungle is noises so bring a white noise machine The service charge is not a substitute for tips. I wish they had been more clear about this. I asked several times and didn’t get a clear answer until we were on site. Highlights: Tours were all amazing. Guides wonderful. We did the canoeing, mayflower waterfall hike, and the cave and jungle. All our guides were great. Room was GORGEOUS Tons of wildlife right outside our room Food was fantastic Others have noted great wine list. I disagree. But it was reasonable. Could not have been any happier. FYI we were there as a family of four in a deluxe tree house with an 18 and 20 year old kids.

Congratulations! You can stop you resort search now. Our stay at Hamanasi Adventure and Dive Resort was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, everything from the lush, intimate grounds to the warm, attentive staff set the tone for an unforgettable experience in Belize. This resort is perfect for travelers who want real adventure paired with genuine downtime. The rooms were beautiful and comfortable, the food was consistently excellent, and the overall vibe struck that rare balance of laid-back luxury and authentic local charm. We packed our days with experiences like the jungle canoe, Mayflower waterfall hike, snorkeling, and the Mayan tour, each led by incredibly knowledgeable guides who stayed with us the entire time, sharing history, answering questions, and making sure everything ran smoothly. You never feel rushed or herded; it’s thoughtful, personal, and well-run. One of the best surprises was how small and quaint the resort feels. You truly get to know the staff (they greet you by name every time you walk into a room) and even connect with other guests in a relaxed, social way. The pier became our favorite hangout—lounging in hammocks, spotting manatees, and watching the sunrise over the water was pure magic. A quick note for planning: this is not a resort I’d recommend for families with young kids. There isn’t much for them to do, and at times it can disrupt the otherwise serene, adventure-focused atmosphere that most guests are there for. All in all, Hamanasi is a 10/10. If you’re looking for a place that delivers unforgettable adventures, incredible service, and a peaceful, authentic setting you won’t find better. I couldn’t recommend it more.
