ABOUT MATACHICA - in their own words:

…Welcome to Matachica a tropical dream set on a long stretch of pearly white sand in breathtaking Belize.

Belize borders the Caribbean Sea along the eastern shore of Central America just below the Yucatan Peninsula. It is the only English speaking Central American country- bordered by Mexico to the North and on the south and west by Guatemala. Belize has a relatively small population approximated at 250,000, who speak mostly English, Spanish and Creole.

Its lands are covered by a lush rainforest, covered rain basins, and are sheltered by a line of coral reef (the second largest living barrier reef in the world). Nature at its best, Belize is renowned by outdoor enthusiasts who come from around the globe for diving, snorkeling, fishing, hiking, jungle adventures and more.

San Pedro Town is located on the island of Ambergris Caye, which is 27 miles long. There is a small cut to the north of the island that separates Belize from Mexico.

Located within a stone’s throw of Belize’s Great Barrier Reef, Matachica is located 5 miles north of the town of San Pedro, surrounded on one side by the tropical rainforest and the incredible marine wildlife on the other.

The resort’s majestic lobby set under a soaring thatch roof, is designed with rustic elegance and style for your comfort. A wonderful spot to mingle, thumb through a variety of magazines and local travel books from our library while listening to our eclectic collection of music from around the world. Sink into one of our comfortable sofas set in a decidedly Belizean atmosphere and enjoy.
