Thatch exceeded our expectations all around. Diving, snorkeling, swimming, meals, cabanas over water, the bar and of course, great staff. We are a family of 4 with 2 kids ages 12 & 13. We all enjoyed the kayaks, sail boat and wakeboards. Lots of places to explore on the island and nearby reefs. The kids tried discovery scuba and quickly... More

When you find a hotel enlisted in the Tablet group of hotels, you expect quirky, boutique modern and design hotels, very far away from the hotel chains experience. What you find in Thatch Caye is all that and at the same time nothing of that, because Thatched Caye is unique. I have been in almost 70 countries and literally 100s... More

We enjoyed our stay at Thatch Caye Resort very much. The service was excellent and the resort and ocean views were beautiful. We were the only divers at the resort that week, so we were spoiled with our own dive boat that included a fabulous dive master and captain. The diving was incredible! We saw nurse sharks, spotted eagle rays,... More

I was lucky enough to spend a week at Thatch Caye in Nov 2012. Coming all the way from Australia I arrived on this magical island and immediately felt relaxed. Every moment was memorable from the beautifully presented and tasty food through to the smiling faces of the staff every day. I cant wait to go back.

My husband and I very much enjoyed our 4 days at Thatch Caye in February; after 4 days spent in an awesome jungle lodge near the Guatemalan coast, we were ready for sand and surf. The setting is lovely, the staff exceptional, and the food excellent. We loved our little cabana and lounging in the hammocks. We took some great... More

Thatch Caye was just perfect for us. We arrived at Thatch Caye for the final four days of our two week holiday in Belize after 4 days at a jungle resort and 5 days on Ambergris Caye (where we got married) and the intention was that our final stay at here would be our "honeymoon". This proved to be great... More

It's not like we get to vacation on man-made, eco-islands every day...what an amazing experience from start to finish. So tranquil and relaxing, we loved it! Only took 1 night to kind of acclimatize to the nocturnal sounds of the over-the-water bungalow experience (the waves and the breeze in the thatch of the roof, for example). "Scheduled" meal times (i.e.... More

My husband and I spent the first half of our honeymoon here and it was the perfect place to unwind after our exhausting wedding weekend! When it's slow here, as it was when we were there, you can go all day without seeing another soul if you wanted. On the other hand, if you're up for an excursion or spending... More

This is a very unique resort so be sure you read carefully before booking. It was a perfect vacation destination for us. We were looking for "a cabin in the woods only on a beach" not a mega resort with hundreds of tourists and this was IT! The staff was exceptional, friendly, funny, and made us feel like we were...
