COVID-19 Information

The Government of Belize requires all international arrivals to have proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken within 96 hours of arrival or proof of vaccination at least 14 days prior.  Tests can also be done upon arrival at the Belize Philip Goldson International Airport.  As of January 26, 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) requires all people two and older to show proof of a negative COVID-19 test taken within 72 hours of arrival to enter the USA.  Hamanasi has partnered with Belize Diagnostics to provide convenient testing on property for US $75 per person.  Additionally, we have implemented many steps to ensure the wellbeing of our guests, employees and communities. Hamanasi also recognizes the great strides made by the Government of Belize and the tourism sector to ensure travelers, employees and communities are safe. 

Staying at Hamanasi in the Time of COVID-19

 

We do recognize that cases of COVID-19 are still increasing worldwide with devastating consequences.  Our team shares the deepest concern for those affected either directly or indirectly by the ongoing threat of COVID-19. We hope that you and your family are safe and well.  Vaccines are helping to protect individuals and fight the spread of this virus, but we must remain vigilant to new variants as they arise.  When you are ready to travel again, everyone at Hamanasi will do our upmost to ensure your safety and health and to provide a much needed respite.

At Hamanasi, we provide authentic connections to nature, starting with our design. As a boutique hotel, we practice social distancing naturally with just 30 rooms on a large property. Our many private treehouses are spaced out within the coastal forest and our beachfront rooms all have separate outdoor entrances. Most of our public spaces are open to fresh air and warm Caribbean breezes. Our first priority, as it has always been, is the continued wellness and safety of our guests and employees. Since reopening we are taking a number of additional health and safety measures including mask wearing, enhanced cleaning, social distancing and more.  We abide by the Belize Government’s guidelines and COVID-19 protocols.

The Government of Belize has implemented new procedures for travel in Belize.

Your departure:
For travelers from the USA:  As of Jan 26th 2021, the The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention requires that all passengers arriving in the United States requires a negative COIVD-19 test.  If you will be returning to the United States, prior to your departure Hamanasi can assist with making arrangements for a rapid antigen test that will comply with this CDC requirement.  Hamanasi currently can arrange for concierge service to have this test done at Hamanasi for US $75 per person.  NOTE: These guidelines may change.  Please check back frequently for updated information!
 
We recognize that some of these guidelines may seem onerous and uncomfortable.  They are in place to ensure the safety and health of all.  Through all this Hamanasi will continue to provide our gracious hospitality, small intimate experiences and regenerative practices.  We can all continue to grow and find deep meaning in travel.
 
The economic fallout of the coronavirus pandemic is acutely felt in Belize.  If you are able, please support the Hopkins Village Food Bank.
