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.

Best vacation ever! Hamamasi Resort is fantastic. The staff is always happy and ready to assist you with whatever you need. The adventures are top notch and the guides are very knowledgeable about where you are and what you are seeing. The food is spectacular and the staff will work with you regarding allergies or dietary needs. We are definitely going back for more fun and adventures.

Love the wildlife

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.

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.

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!!

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!!

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 😁

Outstanding service, truly caring staff, flawless assistance, easy to participate in adventures. The reef for snorkeling is extensive, shallow and populated with spotted rays, nurse sharks, loggerhead turtles, corals, gorgonians, you name it. Food was excellent. The deluxe treehouse is beautifully appointed and provides a rich jungle wildlife and nature experience. Resort is ecologically sensitive: bamboo straws and zero single use plastic. Outstanding guided tours over extensive reefs shallow enough for easy snorkelling and populated by abundant sea creatures such as spotted rays, loggerhead turtles and purple seafans.

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.
