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

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.

Can't begin to describe how amazing this resort is. The location, the staff, the rooms, the restaurant are all as perfect as they could be. Plenty of everything - kayaks, paddle boards, lounge chairs at the pool or on the beach, hammocks, etc etc - we never waited for anything. The staff know your name and quickly learn your preferences and then anticipate your needs. And most impressive is that they are all so genuine and sincere in their desire to make your stay the best experience. There is plenty to keep you busy, or you can just relax and do nothing. They exceeded every expectation. We are going back!!

Hamanasi Resort is our new FAVORITE place to stay at! There is no comparison of the service, food selection, and location for this resort. It is like "Cheers" where everyone knows your name. They remember what you like at the restaurant. The tour guides are experienced and knowledgeable and make every tour memorable! The resort ensures that all of your needs are met at every tour, whether it is pre-ordering breakfast for an early bird-watching tour, or keeping the kitchen open for a late Jaguar evening tour. The snorkeling is spectacular with nurse sharks, rays, and so many beautiful and color fish. I highly recommend this place for anyone who travels to Belize!!

Hamanasi was absolutely perfect! From the moment I tried to get information about diving in Belize until departure! The staff is incredibly friendly, the resort is absolutely beautiful and the tree-houses are special. I took my daughter (15) to get PADI open water certified and then dive a few more days together. The dive crew is fantastic and super fun!! During her 2nd day we dove with sharks, rays and turtles. The crew constantly teaches you on all the corals and species you see, it's so fun. We did the ultimate dive day, 3 dives on the atolls and had the best day. We will definitely come back to Hamanasi but then with my husband and son. If in doubt where to go, you can trust you have a wonderful time at Hamanasi.

Hamanasi Resort in Belize has been our favorite family vacation. My husband and I brought our 11 year old daughter. We wanted a location that was all-inclusive and had SCUBA diving as well as other activities for myself and our daughter, and Hamanasi turned out to exceed all our expectations. They transfer you from the Belize City airport to the resort. The lime fizz drinks they give you on arrival are spectacularly refreshing and our daughter has asked them to recreate them now that we are back in Texas. We stayed in a Deluxe Treehouse which has a master bedroom with the most comfortable bed I have ever slept on for a vacation, a living room area with a couch that became a bed for our daughter (which she also said was incredibly comfortable), and a large bathroom with a 2 sided shower. There is also a large balcony with seating areas, hammock, and a hot tub. We stayed in number 30 which was WAY at the back of the property and completely secluded and surrounded by jungle. We loved it. The food at the resort was so freshly prepared and delicious. Our daughter is gluten-free and they were always ready with special muffins, dinner rolls, and cookies on excursions for her. I am vegetarian and there was a separate menu specifically with multiple vegetarian options. Not only did everything meet our dietary needs, but it also tasted delicious. The staff at the resort was amazing; they made you feel like you were family. David , Ector, and Nelson at the bar were spectacular. Areimy and Rina were some of our favorite wait staff in the restaurant. And Risa and Velma were so helpful at the front desk. We stayed 6 nights so got 4 excursions per person included. We did snorkeling, Cockscomb wildlife sanctuary, and Magical Maya History tour all together. My husband did 2 SCUBA diving trips (so 1 was additional) and my daughter and I did Jungle River canoeing and paid extra for Bocawina Ziplining. Additionally, we enjoyed paddle boarding, the pool, and the private garden tour at the resort. It is a relatively expensive vacation, but everything was taken care of, so felt well worth it. We enjoyed the escape from life (no TVs at the resort) and read and relaxed and spent time together. There is sufficient WIFI so still able to connect with the rest of the world. I highly recommend this resort and definitely plan to return!!!

As so many others have stated, Hamanasi is in a class all its own. We spent 8 nights in a beachfront plus room, which gave us exceptional comfort for our family of 4 (we have two boys, ages 9 and almost 11). We booked a Reef and Rainforest package, and were absolutely blown away with our experience. We felt so well cared for during our stay, on so many levels. The grounds are impeccable. Hamanasi has preserved much of the native tree canopy, which not only provides a beautiful backdrop for the resort but also provides homes for many species of birds as well as a sizeable troop of Coatis, which are fun to watch. The grounds crew rakes the property each morning, a level of care that is just astounding. The restaurant on site provides great options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the menu proved to be varied and delicious throughout our stay. For excursions that included meals, the coordination and attention to detail was very impressive, and the meals themselves were tasty. The guide staff was truly the highlight, though. We did snorkeling, birding, canoeing, toured Mayan sites, cave tubing, and did a night hike through the jungle. All of them were super fun, and we felt the enthusiasm of the guides on all of them. I'm a bird nerd, and was able to capture 72 species of birds on our one day birding and around the property. I could go on at length, but suffice it to say that we had an amazing experience that did not disappoint. Kudos to the entire staff, and we hope to visit again.

Our 15th wedding anniversary at Hamanasi Resort was pure magic! From the moment we arrived at the airport, we were treated to a world of luxury and tranquility. The resort's stunning natural beauty, coupled with impeccable service, made it an unforgettable experience. The staff at Hamanasi truly went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. The personalized attention to detail was truly noticed and really made us feel right at home. We booked a Deluxe Treehouse, which is a private oasis surrounded by lush greenery, making it extremely private and remote from the main buildings of the resort. The spacious and well-appointed room provided the ultimate comfort and relaxation. For diving enthusiasts, Hamanasi is a dream come true. The experienced dive crew guided us through crystal-clear waters, revealing a vibrant underwater world filled with colorful coral reefs, diverse marine life, and thrilling encounters with fish, nurse sharks, moray eels, crabs, lion fish, manta rays, sea turtles, and jelly fish. This is definitely concierge diving, as they take care of everything for your diving needs. The crew will clean and store your gear in the drying room for future dives so you can truly enjoy your vacation. When it came time for dining options, the resort's talented chefs crafted exquisite meals we were treated to a new culinary adventure, featuring fresh, locally sourced ingredients and innovative flavors. As a part of the all-inclusive package, you get breakfast, lunch, and a 3-course dinner each day. The dinner menus are different each night to ensure you don’t have the same cuisine twice. There are also bar snacks and happy hour, as alcohol is not included but very reasonably priced. Hamanasi offers a wide range of exciting activities for every traveler. We explored ancient Mayan ruins, trekked through lush rainforests, canoed down a river, and soared through the canopy on a zipline tour. The resort's serene pool, private dock, and paddleboards provided the perfect opportunities for relaxation and rejuvenation. Our stay at Hamanasi was one of the best vacations we have ever been on, and it is highly worth the price and all the planning that went into it. I highly recommend this paradise to anyone seeking a truly unforgettable getaway. We will definitely be back!

Had a great time here celebrating my anniversary and attending a wedding. The staff was amazing in providing services and tending to requests. The different excursions were amazing (some through the resort and others arranged by the resort) from cave tubing, diving/snorkeling, fishing, hikes, etc. Highly recommend for relaxing getaway!
