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.

Kim and Jacob, Seattle, WA

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!!

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.

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!!!

What a hidden gem! We stayed with them this July and it was a fantastic experience. The location is central enough that you have access to the town but set up in a way with lush trees and vegetation that you feel like you are on a private island. This place is CLEAN. It looks brand new in most regards and the staff takes great care to keep it looking pristine. All of the staff are friendly, and take the time to learn your name. The service is exceptional. We did the snorkeling tour they offer and our main guide was Brian. It was our first time and he was so patient with us- truly kind and helped ease our fears. All of the guides there offer such a kind and authentic experience. Good people, good food, clean rooms. The bartenders are also great and personable and added to the experience.

Our entire experience at Hamanasi was incredible! All the staff, from the restaurant to the front desk to the adventure center to the excursions and everyone else, are wonderful, friendly, and go above and beyond to make the stay perfect. Everything is well organized, the adventures are fun, the rooms are beautiful, the food is delicious, and the grounds are well kept! We had the best time and highly recommend Hamanasi!!

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!

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!

My father and I decided to go on a vacation. I wanted something relaxing with being fully inclusive for us both. We went on a few tours, the Mayan Ruins was amazing. The guides were so informative and so friendly, what a beautiful place. We also went on a scuba dive and all of the guides were so happy to help. My father had a bit of a hard time, and the guide spent so much time with him to make sure he was comfortable. Every single person was so kind, they paid extreme attention to detail to everything we were doing, where we were going ect. And lastly, every employ knew our names, they always greeted us by name. It’s a wonderful place. Very beautiful. Food was amazing. And they take very good care of the property.

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!
