Belize’s Hamanasi Adventure and Dive Resort has completed its recent renovation project.

The property’s updated Great House is slated for a grand opening on April 25.

The boutique hotel had closed at the end of 2014 to add 10,000 square feet of additions and renovations at what is its main building onsite.

The project included the addition of new furniture made onsite in the hotel’s carpentry shop, along with a new “Stargazer’s Deck,” which offers a high-altitude view of far off islands.

“The Great House renovation came out of a need to expand the available public space to better accommodate the increase in guests as well as a desire to elevate comfort and design,” the property said in a release. “However, staying committed to sustainability and limiting the carbon footprint were fundamental parts of the process.”
