We visited Belize for the first time last summer (Aug 12) and knew only what guide books and the internet could tell us. We chose to go the the jungle (Table Rock Lodge) and see the forest, waterfalls and adventure in ruins and caves and then to relax at the beach. We saw Matachica's web site and liked the looks...

Stayed at Matachica for 10 days in April last year. Our room-banana room-directly on the beach, it looked like a banana outside(yellow) and very stylish inside. We didn't have all sort of facilities/gadgets from luxurious hotels, but, to be honest, you cannot expect to find fancy stuff in heaven. ;) An amazing place to stay, to relax, to visit. Also... More

We stayed at Matachica in April 2013. We chose the resort because of the good reviews and nice pictures we had seen on Tripadvisor. We were looking to have a destination wedding. We liked the idea of having beautiful scenery, fewer guests, and lower wedding costs in comparison to a tradition wedding back home in the United States. We were... More

My DH & I celebrated an anniversary here in July, and....WOW! We were blown away by this place, and have only fantastic memories of our stay here. Words really cannot describe what actually being here is like...but I'll try my best. We stayed in the 'Strawberry Beachfront Casita' - it's the beach cabana of your dreams - vaulted, thatched roof,... More

Matachica means Xanadu in English. The definition of Xanadu is “a place of great beauty, luxury, and contentment.” The definition is true to form. . From the time we made our reservation until the moment we were dropped off for our journey home everything we needed was taken care of. I cannot say enough about how helpful and friendly the... More

Thank you for taking the time to post your review. We take guest comments very seriously and have investigated your complaint with respect to this particular fishing tour operator. Our conclusion is that you are absolutely right and we have severed our relationship with this particular fisherman. Generally, we much prefer to offer our own "in-house" guides for snorkeling and...

When you are staying on the sand in a concrete hut, you might not expect pristine, well-decorated rooms and personal service from every employee you see. But Matachica delivers everything you would expect from a luxury hotel in a city, along with rooms that open right onto the ocean. The food at their restaurant was excellent and priced reasonably -... More

We stayed 5 nights in the Luxury Caribbean Villa. When I booked our room, it was the last thing left, so they “split” the Villa for us for a lower price, and we just utilized one bedroom, bathroom and the living area. We still enjoyed it. We enjoyed having the refrigerator in the room. This was an added bonus. We... More

Thank you for your review. I was pleased that you generally enjoyed your stay with us but was of course concerned that you found the room itself to be unsatisfactory. You are correct to point out that we are indeed located DIRECTLY on the beach and with that wonderful location we do confront the reality of real nature. We do... More

We just returned from one weeks stay at Matachica and hated to leave. From top to bottom our stay was fabulous. Burga arranged our Tropic Air flight to San Pedro and it was well worth it. Only 15 minutes and you are on the island. The Matachica golf cart takes you the 5 minute ride to their awaiting boat. After... More
