Matachica Resort & Spa

Great location. Resort was very quiet and was like a private oasis. Couldn’t recommend this resort enough. The food and staff was excellent.

From the moment we arrived at Matachica, it felt like stepping into a dream. This place is truly paradise perfected—intimate, elegant, and effortlessly relaxing. The staff were beyond warm and attentive, always making us feel like honored guests without being intrusive. Every interaction felt genuine, and their attention to detail was unmatched. Our casita was beautifully decorated with vibrant, local touches and offered ultimate privacy. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves and waking up to the Caribbean breeze was pure magic. The food? Absolutely phenomenal. Every meal was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The cocktails at the bar were tropical perfection—don’t miss the frozen watermelon mojito! Whether we were lounging by the pool, kayaking over crystal-clear water, or just soaking in the peaceful vibe, everything about Matachica was designed for relaxation and joy. If you’re looking for a boutique experience with luxury, soul, and natural beauty, Matachica is the place. I didn’t want to leave—and I’m already planning my return.

Hands down the best vacation my husband and I have ever taken together! We took this trip as a babymoon and the resort staff was beyond accommodating. Everything at the resort was perfect: the food was incredible, the pool was so nice to sit around and we never had to fight for a chair, the staff was so kind and equally fun, housekeeping came by 2x a day to fix up our room, and every excursion we did was incredible! I could go on and on about this place. We never return to a resort or location just because there is so much of the world to see, but I absolutely plan on us returning to Matachica in the future!

The Matachica resort was excellent from the moment we arrived at the San Pedro airport. Transfer to the hotel via boat was excellent, and we were warmly greeted with a cold drink. From there the service was excellent! The food and chef were incredible; everything was excellent, fresh, and well prepared. My wife is gluten free, and every waiter knew that once we sat down. The concierge was very helpful in arranging our excursions, and even when one fell through he was able to rebook and support an alternative option (that ended up being better). Matachica is 5 miles north of town and is quiet and peaceful; the perfect place if you want to relax and skip the business of San Pedro.

My husband & I had a fantastic time at Matachica, with a beautiful beach cabana with a sea view, superbly comfy bed & comfortable accommodations throughout. From the morning coffee/tea service, to our room to the turn down service at night; the delicious food & great cocktails in the restaurants & bars; the offerings of free transfers to neighboring Caye Caulker & Secret Beach; the lovely spa; the hospitality here is unparalleled. Literally everyone who took care of us was top notch, and we were treated like royalty. The only drawback was the sargassum, which is completely beyond the control of any resort at this time, but there was a team out all day every day managing it as best they could, and there were plenty of places to go away from the seaweed so that it really didn't hinder our stay much. We did a package and found it to be of great value. I highly recommend Matachica for a grownups vacation!
