Thatch Caye Resort

My husband and I came to Thatch Caye for our honeymoon and it has been the best experience ever. The rooms are so nice and the island is so very peaceful. The staff is 10/10. They make you feel so welcome and like family. Junior is an amazing bartender.

JR was amazing I would recommend this resort to anyone looking to have a good time or just relax and enjoy some quiet relaxing time.

My partner and I returned to Thatch Caye in June 2026 after spending a few days there in April 2025. We loved our first experience so much that we specifically came back to complete our scuba certifications. Scuba Certification:
 Thatch made the entire certification process incredibly easy. We completed our pool training in California and finished our open water dives in Belize through their referral program. Our instructor, Marisha, was outstanding. She took the time to ensure we understood both the knowledge and skills required to dive safely and confidently. Throughout every dive, I felt comfortable, supported, and well-prepared. I cannot recommend completing your PADI Open Water certification with Marisha and the dive shop at Thatch highly enough. Plus, why not get your certification at one of the most beautiful reefs in the world? Overall Experience:
 The atmosphere at Thatch Caye is unmatched. The staff are warm, attentive, and genuinely invested in making your stay memorable. They quickly learn your name, remember the excursions you have planned, ask about your experiences, and encourage you to try new adventures. One thing that stands out is how welcoming and inclusive everyone is, creating an environment where ALL guests feel accepted and comfortable. During both visits, we met wonderful people from around the world! If you're looking for a relaxing getaway with a balance of adventure and tranquility, Thatch Caye is an incredible destination. We have now visited twice and would gladly return again.

Absolutely the best experience! Staying on a private island was incredible, but the service is what truly sets this place apart. The food was amazing. I am vegetarian, and after casually mentioning that I hadn't gotten enough plant-based protein at our previous resort, the resort manager, Luis, and the kitchen staff made sure I had a special, protein-packed dish at every single meal. It was incredibly thoughtful. There are so many great activities you can book directly with them. A huge shout-out to Raafi, he is a very fun and knowledgeable instructor who made our outings memorable. On top of that, when we weren't feeling well and had to miss our scuba dive, they were kind enough to refund the payment without any hassle. The staff here is genuinely nice and accommodating. 100% recommended and we will definitely go again! P.S. If you are the chosen one, one of the island dogs will sleep under your bed. We miss you Marley!

We spent five nights at Thatch Caye during our honeymoon and could not have been more impressed. The staff was so warm and welcoming. They really took the time to get to know us and show us a great time, whether by firing up the karaoke machine, mixing an expertly crafted cocktail, taking care of all transfers and excursion bookings, or just making sure we were well-fed while off adventuring. The island is small, but has a white sand beach, three bars, games, overwater hammocks, and lots of opportunities for adventure on the ocean and further afield in the western jungle. It was so much fun waking up to the local stingray outside our overwater bungalow and seeing all the different shells inhabited by hermit crabs that roam the island. A big thank you to everyone there who made our first trip to Belize so memorable. It won’t be our last.
