What Our Friends Say About Us
The Hamanasi is a beautiful hotel with amazing excursions, great rooms, and nice pool and beachfront. The first couple nights we stayed in a treehouse room. The room was very nice and enough room for our family of 5. Then halfway through our stay, we switched to the beachfront room. They were about the same size but the beachfront one was nice because it was right next to the pool. The breakfast was very good with lots of options and fresh food every day. We normally ordered lunch by the pool or packed it to go for our adventures. Love how the servers get to know you by name very quickly. You can tell they are trained well! Dinner was also delicious and the waiters were very kind. One of the best adventures to sign up for is the chocolate tour. First they take you to a cocoa farm and show you the first steps of making chocolate there. Then you go to the factory where you get to make your own chocolate. There is also a store downstairs where you can buy some of the organic chocolate that they make. the other excursions that we did were diving, ziplining, waterfall repelling, and fishing. The dive shop was very organized and easy even if you aren't a professional diver. The dive crew was amazing and we felt very safe while diving. The fishing was another amazing experience that we had at the Hamanasi. It was not through the hotel, but the adventure center gave us the recommendation. We caught at least 30 fish, including one barracuda. The hotel cooked the fish that we caught for dinner that night and it was delicious. The ziplining and waterfall repelling were another highlight of our stay. They were both at the same place about 45 minutes away from the hotel. Our family got a private van and driver to take us there and back. They were always so professional and knowledgeable, especially Mr. Field. For the ziplining, there is a short hike to get to the first line. They take you on 8 different ziplines over the rainforest with amazing views. I would recommend the ziplining for everyone. It felt very safe but it was also very fun. The waterfall repelling was a all day activity. It started with a steep hike to get to the waterfall. It started raining halfway through our hike, but we were going to get wet anyways so it was fine. At the top of the waterfall there was a natural pool that we could swim in. There was also a spot above the waterfall that you could jump off of. After swimming, we took family photos with a beautiful view in the background. Next came the waterfall repelling. The guides hooked you up to a rope and then sent you one at a time down the waterfall. It was very hard but extremely fun. We went down 2 sections of the waterfall, and then hiked back down. Another tour that we did was the wood shop and garden tour. At the wood shop tour, they showed us how all of the chairs, stools, and furniture were made for the hotel. The garden tour was very beautiful and it was nice to see how they use all of the fruits, vegetables, and herbs in the food that they serve. The pool and the beach area at the hotel are very nice. The only problem was the Sargassum sea grass. It piled up at the shore so we couldn't go swimming for most of the time. One of our favorite parts of the hotel was Mango the cat. She always sat right outside the main building and loved to be pet. Overall the Hamanasi exceeded our expectations and was a great choice to stay in Belize.

Exceeded all of our expectations. Gorgeous property, warm and friendly staff, knowledgeable tour guides, great food, no crowds, nice beach and great activities to book, or not, both jungle and reef.
We stayed in the Deluxe Tree House surrounded by the rainforest and steps away from the beach and the main house. I could not have dreamed up Hamanasi. The kind of place you don't want to leave when you are there, and dream of returning to when you get back home. We loved the personal attention and assistance at our meals and activities, which included the best horseback riding, the best snorkeling and the best visit to a Mayan ruin. A wild and beautiful place, captured one afternoon as I walked along the beach and was passed by two village boys galloping down the coast on their horses. We ate all our meals at the main lodge, and they were all excellent. Local dance/drums night was a special treat. No surprise that many guests were on return visits.
My family had an amazing experience during our week here! The food was delicious and kept my 2 teenaged boys happy. There were plenty of adventures to choose from to keep everyone engaged. The amenities on the property offer something for everyone, and the rooms are well appointed and comfortable. The location is breathtaking. What sets Hamanasi apart is the STAFF!! Smiles and incredible service are the norm. If you are looking for an easy vacation with something for everyone, you can’t go wrong with planning a trip here.
Great adventures, great beach/water activities, great food and drinks, AMAZING customer service - like wow customer service. Every staff member was friendly, greeted you by name, and wanted you to have the best stay. I can’t wait to go back. It was the perfect blend of relaxing beach and adventure.
I give Hamanasi my highest recommendation. We came for a week and booked the double room (separate room with two small beds for the kids) and got the adventure and food package. The adventure package included five expeditions and the food package covered all meals, excluding alcohol and specialty coffee drinks. I've never felt more welcome at a hotel - everywhere we went the stafr said hi and knew our names. The food was excellent and the kitchen is really accommodating and will make you anything so long as they have the ingredients. Special shout out to our guide BJ who we had the pleasure of being with for snorkeling, canoeing, and hiking. We almost never visit the same place twice but will return to Hamanasi in a few years.
This is the second time we have stayed at Hamanasi. This is an absolutely amazing resort that is small, intimate where everyone addresses you by name and you have the opportunity to meet others, but grand enough to offer so many amenities and activities. We cannot say enough about the first class service, location, food, staff, and eco-friendly and knowledgeable guides. I can’t imagine traveling to Belize and staying anywhere else!
The whole place is beautiful and the staff were amazing! They call you by name and remember your name the entire time you're there. They really make you feel like family or a good friend, which I feel like we became. The tours & scuba dive were great as well.
