Save The Manatees
By supporting Jamal Galves, from Clearwater Marine Aquarium Research Institute, Itz'ana has pledged to create a safe environment for the protection of Manatees in our Placencia Peninsula. We have also sponsored the Marine Conservation Camp, and were honored to host this incredible camp at our resort. We are dedicated not only to marine conservation, but to inspiring the next generation of conservationists!
Beach Cleanup with 4Ocean and Maverick
In partnership with 4Ocean and Maverick, Itz'ana Resort was honored to host a beach cleanup initiative where we witnessed collaboration with our community. At Itz'ana, we are cognizant of our social responsibility and we aim to continue playing a pivotal role in the environmental and social needs of our community, Seine Bight. It is with love and respect that we remain leaders of change, and we look forward to many more community cleanups in the future!
Our Community
At Itz'ana, we understand the importance of giving back to our community. Our team seeks to connect with and support the community to which we belong: Seine Bight Village. We support our local police department in various ways. Our resort supports the children of our community in many ways, by facilitating donations of materials from our guests to the local schools, sponsoring the female soccer team, or involving the local schools in our conscious activities.
At Itz'ana, we take great pride in immersing our guests in local culture in every possible way. That's why we're thrilled to have the honor of supporting talented local drummers from our community, Seine Bight. Not only do our drummers provide immersive cultural experiences for our guests, but we have also sponsored them to participate in national drumming competitions where they proudly took second place.
Sargassum & Coastal Conditions
At Itz’ana, we understand how important beach conditions are to your stay. Our coastal conditions page offers timely updates on sargassum activity in Placencia, along with seasonal insights, recommended experiences, and helpful information so you can plan your time by the sea with confidence.
The Placencia Sailing Club
Itz'ana is proud to support the Placencia Sailing Club, a program that we are sponsoring for the entire year. In addition to pledging our financial support, we are also providing the club with access to our marina. Through this program, we hope to see the youth of the Placencia Peninsula being inspired to love and care for the ocean as they are trained, taught leadership skills, and learn teamwork through sailing.
