Resorts em San Pedro Town

The grounds and rooms are gorgeous and really well maintained. The landscaping is impeccably maintained and is very colorful. The pool is very pretty and you can borrow a kayak and paddle out to snorkel at the reef by yourself and take as long as you want. The water here is crystalline and warm. The first room we were in was a smaller sea breeze bungalow and was very quiet and relaxing. The only con was that the bed was pretty hard. A few days into our stay, we were given an unexpected complimentary upgrade to a much larger casita by the pool. It was also tastefully decorated and the fans were really nice and very quiet and this bed was much softer and more comfortable. The only drawback to this room was the shower which was a tepid dribble. There was construction going on behind the rooms we were in which was a little noisy, but since we spent most of the day out doing things it really didn't hamper our enjoyment of the resort. The staff at the resort were amazing. They were extreme...

My favorite spot in Belize's Ambergris Caye. Charming (think 'bohem-chic') bungalows with original artwork and fancy sheets. Lovely grounds, attentive staff, international vibe and one of the better restaurants outside of downown San Pedro.

We stayed at Matachica for a week in December 2010 and couldn't have been happier with our choice. The grounds are very nice, you actually feel like you are in the tropics where animals live versus the sterile, overly pesticide laden grounds of many larger resorts. That being said you must bring your own bug spray, but that is a mild inconvenience when you consider all the interesting animals you see. Along the beach is an abundance of wildlife from crab to small barracuda and rays. The snorkeling / diving is fantastic. Then there is the wonderful food at the onsite restaurant, served by the most helpful staff I've run into in a very long time. There is free continental breakfast each morning to start your day off right. In all it made for a very relaxing atmosphere where we didn't have a care in the world. If you are looking for a place to relax this is the place to be.
