I have never encountered a resort that levied charges for standard amenities such as coffee and tea; typically, these are complimentary. My recent three-night stay, costing CAD 2200, included dining at a mid-range restaurant where a burger, fries, and a small portion of lobster ravioli cost CAD 118, despite my abstention from alcohol.i asked if they had repeat buiness and they dsaid they fid but i would never go back once was enough.

Heavenly! Everything about this stay was 5 star. Transportation to and from the resort was seamless. The staff was warm, welcoming, and always looking to make my stay comfortable. They called me by name from the time of arrival to departure. There was a welcome drink, fresh coffee or tea delivered to the room at my convenience. The room was perfect! I borrowed a yoga mat from the fitness area for morning yoga on the porch. There are kayaks and paddle boards for use for those looking to explore the water a bit. Tours can be arranged at the front desk. Thank you to all of the staff! I have dined at Mambo before but never stayed at the resort. I am looking for an excuse to come back and stay with you all again!

wonderful getaway
Beautiful location away from the town. Right on the sand and each of the casitas were perfectly spaced out.
The team was really attentive and welcoming.
Restaurants on-site were not good (especially the "fancier" one) and overpriced.

The private lodging was perfect and the staff and food at the resort were tops (the baked goods were scrumptious). The snorkeling trips run by the resort were also excellent and the service and transportation were all impeccable.

Matachica resort and spa was absolutely incredible. From the moment we got off the airplane, Matachica staff was there to pick us up and take us to the resort. We highly recommend renting a Casita right on the beach. What an incredible view from our bed. It was absolutely amazing up there every morning.
Also, great options for excursion adventures. We did a half-day tour Swimming with sharks and stingray. Our tour guide Chris Was incredible and recommend booking the tour with him. The food was also very delicious and we recommend this place to anybody interested in a nice anniversary getaway.
