About Matachica Beach Resort and Spa

Matachica Beach Resort and Spa sits on the shore five miles north of San Pedro, and the day here starts and ends with the water. Mornings suit the beach: sun loungers, beach chairs and sun umbrellas are set out along a private beach area, and the resort has water sport facilities on site and snorkelling for anyone who wants to get in the sea. Guests give the stay a 9.4 rating across 326 reviews.

When you want a change of pace, the resort offers several ways to cool off. There is an infinity pool and a separate salt-water pool, plus a pool bar for a drink without leaving your lounger. A hot tub/Jacuzzi is available too, and the Seafront Luxury Suite adds a plunge pool of its own. A garden and a terrace add space to unwind, and board games and puzzles are on hand for a lazy afternoon.

The spa and wellness center is the natural next stop. Massage services and beauty services are available, and a fitness center covers workouts. Because the resort is adults only, the mood stays calm and grown-up, which suits couples and friends who want quiet more than a lively family scene.

Evenings centre on the restaurant and the bar, with a terrace for lingering afterwards. Practical details are handled without fuss. WiFi and parking are free, an airport shuttle is available at no charge, and a concierge and tour desk can help shape your days. Rooms range from bungalows and casitas to a two-bedroom Seafront Luxury Villa, all with air conditioning and a safety deposit box.
