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.

Hamanasi provided the most amazing honeymoon experience from start to finish. The service is truly top-tier, the property is gorgeous, and the amazing experiences were unforgettable. Huge shout-outs to the incredible staff who went above and beyond: France and Densel who helped me regain the confidence to get back in the water and scuba diving! Mr. Bol was a wealth of fascinating information on Mayan culture and instantly made us feel at home. And thank you to Phil, Juan, and the bar team for keeping the great drinks flowing along with even better conversations and brain teasers. If you’re looking for paradise and world-class hospitality, Hamanasi is it. We can't wait to return!

This was the perfect place to stay, we had so much fun. Hamanasi is incredibly accommodating and the staff are excellent. Being able to snorkel the reef was amazing. The views are out of this world and the resort itself was beautiful.

As so many others have stated, Hamanasi is in a class all its own. We spent 8 nights in a beachfront plus room, which gave us exceptional comfort for our family of 4 (we have two boys, ages 9 and almost 11). We booked a Reef and Rainforest package, and were absolutely blown away with our experience. We felt so well cared for during our stay, on so many levels. The grounds are impeccable. Hamanasi has preserved much of the native tree canopy, which not only provides a beautiful backdrop for the resort but also provides homes for many species of birds as well as a sizeable troop of Coatis, which are fun to watch. The grounds crew rakes the property each morning, a level of care that is just astounding. The restaurant on site provides great options for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and the menu proved to be varied and delicious throughout our stay. For excursions that included meals, the coordination and attention to detail was very impressive, and the meals themselves were tasty. The guide staff was truly the highlight, though. We did snorkeling, birding, canoeing, toured Mayan sites, cave tubing, and did a night hike through the jungle. All of them were super fun, and we felt the enthusiasm of the guides on all of them. I'm a bird nerd, and was able to capture 72 species of birds on our one day birding and around the property. I could go on at length, but suffice it to say that we had an amazing experience that did not disappoint. Kudos to the entire staff, and we hope to visit again.

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!

This resort feels like a much more luxurious experience than what we paid for it. Their commitment to sustainability and support to the local community is admirable. The small size feels intimate, and the very friendly staff takes care of every need. Hamanasi is the perfect blend of rainforest and ocean for those looking to stay at a single location. There were lots of great options for add on tours in addition to our package. The food was plentiful and delish. I loved the bartender creations. Guides were knowledgeable and safe. My room was so cute, and the hammock on the balcony was a nice touch. I felt very safe and pampered during my week here. Great for singles, couples, and families. 10/10, would stay again!

Hamanasi Resort is One of the Best Places to Visit

The staff and accommodations at Hamanasi are the best I have ever experienced. They were attentive, considerate, welcoming and make an effort to know and remember all our names (5 of us). They made us feel right at home. The location is beautiful and every aspect of the accommodations from the rooms to the food selections are superb. There is nothing that we would recommend changing. Also, all the excursions from scuba diving to night hikes and touring the Mayan temples were well organized and filled with information. We felt well cared for every step of the way. Finally, the communication before, during and after our trip was clear, prompt, responsive, and flexible to our specific needs. We will be back next year for an even longer stay and will become one of their regular repeat visitors.

Beautiful resort with excellent service. It was a highly organized operation. The tour guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. I felt very relaxed here and also was able to enjoy the adventures. I was particularly impressed with how the Hamanasi staff were able to accommodate dietary needs, with variety and great flavor! Vegan meals were not an afterthought. I would definitely come back and I don't normally like to go to the same place twice!

I was in a party of nine that spent seven nights at Hamanasi in April. The members of our group spanned the ages of 55 to 14. This was our first visit to Belize and Hamanasi. We had an excellent time and hope to return in the near future. Aspects of our stay that stood out include the very high quality of the food, the exceptionally friendly and responsive staff, the variety of the land and reef adventures, and the very relaxing vibe of the resort. I also very much appreciated the very environmentally aspects of the resort. This resort will appeal to travelers who enjoy snorkeling, diving and active land-based adventures. Hamanasi managent, please don’t change a thing!

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.
