Matachica Resort & Spa

From the day Chris picked us up at the San Pedro Airport and took us to Matachica via boat and brought us back via car, we thoroughly enjoyed our week stay at the resort. Heidi checked us in and made sure our stay would be one of our best vacations. It certainly did not disappoint, every morning she had a smile and a hello and greeted us by our names on our way to the bistro for breakfast. Heidi even set up morning coffee delivery in our bungalow to start the day. Sayaria arrived almost every morning by 8am with a smile and a cheerful good morning. The food at Matachica is by far some of the best we have tasted and we have traveled to many resorts over the years, the portions are very filling and we certainly did not leave hungry. The wait staff is spectacular, Sayaria, Archie, Andre and Gustavo served us and waited on us most mornings and evenings, as we ate at either the Mambo restaurant or The Bistro. They always had smiles, they knew us by our names and even by the end of the week knew what our favorite drink and dishes were. If you visit Matachica I HIGHLY recommend the filet mignon and Steven’s Key Lime pie at The Mambo Restaurant, AMAZING!! Edgar, the Concierge was wonderful at planning beach days, as well as an excursion to Lamoni. Secret Beach was a lot of fun and either Edgar or Jeremy would accompany a van of guests over there and stay for the hours we were there. Both are very personable and we really enjoyed chatting with them during our beach time and when we ran into them at the resort. We also spent many days hanging around the resort poolside and close to the pool bar. Keiden was a wonderful bartender, always ready with a drink, a smile and a joke. If Keiden was not there Sarvano was always ready for shots! The pool is nice and refreshing, certainly large enough to accommodate many guests along with a hot tub and plenty of seating. If you do not want to get your drinks at the pool bar you could always wander in and see Jose for a refreshing drink at The Bistro. We enjoyed Jose’s ability to complete the Maya Tower game with his eyes closed and great conversations. This game became quite a hit during our stay and I am sure it is very popular with anyone who has ever stayed at Matachica We would really like to recognize the housekeeping and grounds staff at the resort. They took pride in keeping the grounds immaculate. Brenda, Natalie, Josie and Reyna kept our little Coco Bungalow clean, orderly and always with fresh pool and room towels. They always had a little message on the notepad to make our day even brighter, the little towel animals on either the bed or sink gave us a chuckle every day. The birthday message by far was spectacular! In conclusion you will not find a better resort for adults than Matachica. From morning to when Jennifer wishes you a good night, see you tomorrow you will be pampered and appreciated. We certainly be back to stay in our Coco Bungalow! Jim and Julie Lamm

Beautiful place. The staff are beyond friendly and kind - no complaints. I felt the price of food and drinks was unreasonably high and they did that because the location is more remote. So you are stuck either paying higher prices or renting a golfcart just to drive 30 minutes to town for a meal.

From the speedboat pickup to the thrills found in their packages offered via the resort to the amazing dinners at mambo this was a once in a lifetime vacation. Usually I like to book from sources other than the hotel but matachica made everything so easy and convenient. The spa was a delight highly recommended

The resort was a paradise, filled with beautiful white sandy walk ways, gorgeous pool with blue ocean views. Our room was decorated beautifully and cared for with a personal touch everyday, small messages from the staff with cute pictures drawn on. Silvano made us feel so welcome and made stunning cocktails , next time I come back to Belize I’ll definitely want to stay here again! Thank you M!!

Beautiful and relaxing resort, I would recommend to anyone visiting Belize. The food in particular was phenomenal. Each room was very clean and well appointed. The staff were especially friendly and accommodating. Because the beach at the resort had a lot of sea grass, the resort facilitated complimentary day transfers to other beaches which was highly appreciated.
