What Our Friends Say About Us
A blissful week in Belize. Although the weather wasn’t the best, we had such a great visit to Belize and Hamanasi. Staff is incredibly attentive and friendly. EVERYONE made an effort to learn our names and preferences. The dining was very good with a menu that changes daily. (Don’t miss the ceviche of the day). The adventures were very interesting with great driver/guides. Wow! We did a day trip to two different Mayan ruins, caving, and bird/nature canoe, a waterfall hike and swim and snorkeling. Lastly from the logistics perspective, they met us at the airport and returned us to the airport. They ran the trips with their own staff and guides - terrific!!!
We were two couples that just got back from the amazing Hamanasi resort wow wow, certainly it was paradise, the people were absolutely profesional, caring, friendly a place that we all call magical, the food soooo delicious and the snorkeling to die for wow wow , the snorkeling crew were fabulous and friendly they certainly made us feel like family and very knowledgeable about the marine life, every day we went snorkeling and it was so full of surprises to see turtles, dolphins, stingrays, nurse sharks, lobster and more wow, wow.Their customer service was impecable at the restaurant, bar, rooms, snorkeling shop and last but not least the grounds and landscaping were absolutely amazing, we felt we had died and gone to heaven, thank you, thank you for making us all feel so welcomed and at home 🙌🙌🙌🙏🙏🙏👏👏
My father and I decided to go on a vacation. I wanted something relaxing with being fully inclusive for us both. We went on a few tours, the Mayan Ruins was amazing. The guides were so informative and so friendly, what a beautiful place. We also went on a scuba dive and all of the guides were so happy to help. My father had a bit of a hard time, and the guide spent so much time with him to make sure he was comfortable. Every single person was so kind, they paid extreme attention to detail to everything we were doing, where we were going ect. And lastly, every employ knew our names, they always greeted us by name. It’s a wonderful place. Very beautiful. Food was amazing. And they take very good care of the property.
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.
Fantastic experience. Service was incredible and the food was impressive. We look forward to returning.
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!
We absolutely love everything about Hamanasi. The rooms are lovely, ample in size, and the treehouse rooms are especially beautiful. Private, large, close to wildlife, and very special. The service is impeccable. Everyone is just lovely. And the Dive Shop is the most professional, impressive one we’ve ever seen. Our whole family dives, and we are return visitors. We loved our dive instructors. My wife and I got our Advanced PADI certification, and our daughters will do that on their next trip. We plan to return again!
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!
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 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.
