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

Beth and Chris Rugg, Freeville

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

Wonderful stay, beautiful surroundings. The staff was unfailingly friendly and accommodating. Adventures were great and well organized!

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!

There was nothing we would have changed. Hamanasi made our honeymoon the best we could have imagined. Thank you!

The entire staff was amazing. The team at Hamanasi is exceptional. Despite the hard work, in hot humid weather, nothing stops them from being helpful and friendly.

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

We are in our 70's, young feeling, but slower than others. The guides couldn't have been nicer or more patient, and knowledgeable on what they do. Thank you Mr Bol, Jason, John, Alec, and France. We couldn't have done it without you. Thank you, thank you. The ladies in the dining room remembered our names, were great at their jobs and it was hard to say good bye. The food was wonderful, by the way. Thank you Darnell for helping keep our activities straight. And bar staff, David and Juan. I wish I could remember everyone's name, so I could thank you also. This place is special. It's a place where you come and feel cared for. We'll be back 😁

To start, I must give a shout out to the fabulous, professional, warm dive crew at Hamanasi. France, Eric, Big Daddy and everyone else made us feel safe at all times while adding humor and adventure to our multiple dive experiences. We truly enjoyed spending hours with them on the boat and during our island breaks. They also gave us valuable diving tips after each excursion that helped us improve our skills. I am a new diver, and my experience with this crew makes me want to expand my certification and return to Hamanasi for more! The resort is simply magical. Everyone knew our names, asked about our daily adventures, made us laugh, and treated us like family. Our treehouse room was beyond beautiful. The restaurant food was spectacular, and the pool area was chill and serene. We especially enjoyed giving resident cat Mango daily scratches (he was most friendly when his food bowl needed a refill!). Although many guests get the full meal plan at the resort, I recommend you save some dinners for the fantastic Chef Rob’s Gourmet Cafe down the street (reserve his chef tasting dinner) and karaoke night at Ella’s in town (the food there is also fresh and delicious). And don’t forget to stop by Black Orchid Ice Cream in the afternoon after an excursion. A perfect vacation!

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!!

The only reason I gave Hamanasi 5 stars is that 10 stars were not available! We were blown away by this resort! The staff consistently went out of their way to make us feel like answering our questions, or arranging our excursion was the most important thing they would do that day. The food was amazing - and the portions were incredible. (I got in the habit of ordering a child's portion and still couldn't eat it all!) We loved that Hamanasi provides its own guides for land/jungle tours and for SCUBA and snorkeling. We felt safe and assured that our guide(s) provided the best experience possible. We had the pleasure of staying in a deluxe treehouse. It was beautiful - tucked away in the canopy of the jungle, where we watched hummingbirds and coatimundis in the trees. We enjoyed the hot tub after a day of hiking or diving. I can't say enough about Hamanasi!!

Our family of 5 couldn’t have been more blessed to have stayed here on our 1st trip to Belize. Everything was incredible from the food to the adventures to the culture and the staff, literally everything. Axel was an exceptional guide! Ems was a wonderful guide on the hikes as well! We have been to many places around the world with our children and this was one of the best trips we have ever experienced. Snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef was magical and the attention to detail of eco friendliness was next level. We can’t wait to come back!

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.
