Matachica Beach Resort and Spa

Wonderful place with an amazing staff and very good food. Rooms are spread out in a lovely garden. A place for relaxation 30 minutes with a golfcart from San Pedro. The premises qre kept very clean. Highly recommend if you want a place out of the center.

Great hotel with fantastic staff. Our sea breeze casita had everything we needed and it was equipped to deal with any mosquitos and bugs however we didnt have any issues with either throughout our stay. Bar staff were friendly and knowledgable and we thouroughly enjoyed our rum & tequila tasting sessions. Whilst at Matachica we arranged a trip over the blue hole which was superb and a private snorkelling trip and visit to Caye Caulker. Victor our captain and Mauro were brilliant. Hol chan & shark ray alley did not disappoint.

Very nice stay at Matachica, we specially enjoyed the people working in the hotel, who made their best to satisfy our requests. Special thanks to Khar, Jeremy and Luis! And of course to all the persons we don’t remember the name! The only negative point, and therefore we don’t give the five stars, is the prices at the restaurant. Breakfast, despite very good, is not at the level of the price we pay. I have been traveling all around the world, but I never paid USD 18.- plus taxes for an omelette. One tea: USD 5.- plus taxes…! At the level Matachica aims to be, that should be corrected and they should offer a real breakfast to their guests. For the rest, we highly recommend Matachica.

Fantastic location, great accommodations and staff. Pleasant with no children running around. Concierge services were extremely helpful and excursions easy to book.

My husband and I stayed at Matachica for a week, the first week of January, to celebrate my birthday. We had an amazing time! The resort is beautiful and well maintained. Staff were all so friendly, helpful, and attentive. Shout outs to Lilian at the spa, Lance at the Tree bar, Julio, Jose, Gustavo, Josue, and Moses at the Mambo restaurants and bar! All the staff were outstanding and I wish I remembered everyone’s names. The only problem we had was our hot water heater going out but maintenance had it replaced within 2 hours. We will definitely return, Matachica is paradise!!

This is, hands down, the nicest resort I have ever been to. The staff and the location are what make this hotel the amazing place that it is. It is relatively easy to access while still feeling remote and peaceful. Even though the resort was fully booked, it felt like we were the only couple there. The staff took time to remember our preferences and make our experience personalized and special. It was worth every penny we paid. Grounds were clean. Food was amazing. Spa services were delightful. The ambience and vibes were tropical perfection without feeling hokey. We will absolutely be making it an annual vacation to this resort. I am counting the days till we return in 2027.

Our stay at Matachica was unbeatable. The service and hospitality was top notch. The roots and resort were well kept, tidy, and welcoming. The food was delicious! We recommend the spear fishing tour with Job. It was fantastic and the lobster we caught was cooked by the chef at the restaurant. Heidi at the front desk was friendly and helpful throughout the entire stay. Lance took care of us at the bar and out by the pool. He gave use great recommendations for local food spots and where to visit. Overall, I cannot recommend this resort enough and we will certainly be back to visit.

Fabulous trip with the family - our 4th time to Matachica (and third to Gaia). Beautful accomodations, wonderful staff who were all kind, friendly and accommodating. It was a great family time together with much to do or nothing to do but relax and enjoy its each other's company.

Our family of five stayed at Matachica for seven nights over the New Year's holiday. Som of us snorkeled, did scuba diving, spearfishing and sea kayaking. Others merely relaxed on the loungers at the dock which extended out to the ocean and by the pool reading and chilling. The food at both restaurants is OUTSTANDING. I've never ever stayed at a resort where every meal was. so consistently delicious. The accommodations were wonderful and we had restful sleep. The staff goes above and beyond -- the concierge set us up for great excursions. We enjoyed getting to know Lance, Julio, Archie, Gustavo and so many more. Thank you for a wonderful holiday!

Stayed two nights. It was neatly decorated , peaceful and nice with a hammock on the front porch. Staff brings coffee each morning. You definitely get your zen here My first room “mandarin” was filled with flying insects all around my bed, nightstand, and couch. (They came twice to remove them ) I was told they don’t bite and it was normal to see so many. Second room, the “raspberry” was very nice and rarely any insects so that clearly wasn’t true. The staff was friendly except Heidi…… I walked through front desk twice behind two other couples and a single guest that did not look like me. They were all greeted expeditiously. I even went back to the lobby with me being the only guest just to see if it was an oversight…. I walked around the lobby seeking the restroom and she didn’t bother to look up…I did tell her about it and she apologized with the excuse “busy with checkouts and she didn’t see me” By the way the guest she greeted were not checking out just walking through to breakfast like me…..Then she made the comment to me “wasn’t I supposed to be at another resort” Wow! For context: (The other resort was less expensive but it got doubled booked so the owner was nice enough to book me here) I wouldn’t call this place luxury or costly justified. It is their idea of luxury. (I wasn’t seeking luxury on this solo trip either)….Overall it was nice. Peaceful and Quiet. Dear Heidi: I’m well traveled and have been at the best of the best hotels/resorts. This is an opportunity for you to be inclusive to all guests. I get that I stood out with only two brown guests being on the resort but that’s even more reason to be equally polite like your peers.
