Feb 11, 2025Obsessed with Matachica!
I was traveling with friends, and we had the best experience. The food, spa, atmosphere, design, and especially the service were all outstanding! A top-notch resort that knows what they are doing. We just left yesterday and miss it so much already!

Best Birthday Celebration EVER!!
I cannot say enough great things about Matachica. From our arrival via boat to the day we left the resort, everything was amazing! We were only there for a short visit (January 11th-14th), but it was one of the best resorts we've visited, and we are blessed to travel frequently. The weather during our stay was perfect, we had one morning when it rained and was a little cloudy, but otherwise no issues. I had originally requested a bungalow with a pool, but decided being directly on the beach would be ideal. I'm so glad we did it. We were in the Papaya bungalow which was about ten feet from the beach. Every morning we watched the sunrise either from our front porch or from our bed. The views were magnificent! The room had everything you needed, and the turndown service at night was wonderful. The beds were so incredibly comfortable and I love there was NO TV. The concierge did the best job setting us up with a golf cart to go to Secret Beach and suggesting restaurants off the property to try. We were celebrating my birthday and did a dinner on the pier one night. The experience was incredible. We had the best moonlight for ambience and the food was delicious (the food was delicious every day...you can't go wrong). My husband knew I really wanted to see sea turtles and Henry was kind enough to offer to take us out for an afternoon, even though we had scheduled a tour the following day. The experience didn't disappoint. We went to two different places, getting off the boat into the water was like jumping into an aquarium. I was able to Zen with turtles at both spots! We also did a sunset cruise one evening, the sunsets are the most incredible I've witnessed. Upon our arrival back to the resort there was live music playing in the bar. We had originally decided against doing the Captain's Dinner, but changed our mind at the last minute and I'm so glad we did! The food was amazing and we met some really fun people. We spent one day at the pool for some relaxation time, it was very relaxing and the bartenders at Danny's Tree Bar make delicious cocktails with fun garnishes shaped in different designs. I felt like everyone went out of their way to make my birthday special, whether it was a welcome message made out of palm leaves on our bed, to a personally hand written note, the MANY birthday treats I had (Key Lime Pie, cakes, fresh papaya when we departed with a Happy Birthday message). It was such a great experience and I highly recommend the resort to anyone wanting to visit Belize who are looking for a relaxing place to stay. I have never seen my husband so relaxed on a vacation! Shout out the Henry and to Archie...and I apologize to those I'm not mentioning because you were all so wonderful!

Tropical Paradise with incredible service and hospitality!
Have you ever dreamt of a tropical paradise with the most amazing turquoise water, manicured beaches, world class service, delicious food and impeccable watersports… the Matachica Resort and Spa is just that! This is a high end boutique resort with just 32 casitas, a gym, spa, pool/hot tub, tree bar and 2 restaurants. We hand picked Matachica for our birthday celebration, and were blown away by how beautiful the resort accommodations were, and the high end service was amazing! Everyone from the front desk, housekeeping, landscaping team, ocean sports and tour operators were top notch. I’ve traveled a lot and this resort is WOW incredible!!! This is a bucket list resort of your looking to relax, be spoiled, and enjoy the most amazing island in Belize!! Hats off to team Matachica, we will definitely be back!!! Paul

Love this place!
We loved our stay! Love the small size of the resort; the service is fantastic and the food is off the charts good. Everyone is so friendly and fun. We loved kayaking out to the reef where we saw sharks and rays and tons of fish and paddleboarding - Eli "the beach guy" is so helpful. Would highly recommend the Caye Caulker excursion and getting a massage at the spa! Also, rent a golf cart and spend time in town - its easy and safe!

Great 10 year revisit!
The attention to detail was excellent. The food was great. The spa was wonderful. My wife and I enjoyed our ten year aniversary where we started our journey We were glad that the hotel has maintained its original core Beauty and service without losing sight of the surroundings. It maintained the simplicity and beauty of design despite its expansion. We love getting around by boat; it gives the resort a feeling of being remote even though it is attached to the city by a road to San Pedro. We preffered to stay at Matachica for the much needed rest and relaxation; and only went to San Pedro to go to Amigos del Mar dive shop.
