With only eleven rooms, and an average year round cost of slightly over USD200, Thatch Caye Resort will give you not only an affordable vacation, but it is also a cheap vacation destination bearing in mind what you will get for your money. Thatch Caye is an island complex within the protected South Water Marine Reserve in the Coco Plum Range of Islands. It is renowned not only as a top resort for scuba diving in Belize, but also as a great place for fly fishing in Belize.
You will be one of a maximum of 22 guests accommodated in 11 beautifully positioned villas, some of which have lovely ocean views. There are 4 Casitas, which are single storey up on stilts, with a sundeck on the roof, complete with hammocks to catch the cooling breeze and allow you to enjoy the spectacular views. With the breeze you won’t need air conditioning, although there are ceiling fans, and the casitas which are very private could be perfect for a honeymoon in Belize, complete with king size beds, hot shower, and very comfortable indeed.Then there are the Cabanas situated over the water, each cabana having two accommodation units. They have thatch roofs, tiled floors, spacious baths, and Queen size beds, and again are cooled by the prevailing breeze, and ceiling fans
The heart of the resort is Thatch Central where reception, and the dining room is found, and one of the two bars, the outdoor Wave Bar also has a thatched roof shelter and glorious local hardwoods.
This is a very nice resort and Thatch Caye Resort in fact may be an affordable vacation spot because of the reasonable price, but it is light years away from being what you think a cheap vacation destination would be like. It might be cheap, in other words not expensive, but a long way from being cheap as in nasty.
The comments made by guests over the past weeks and months are indicative of how highly Thatch Caye Resort is rated.It is not rare to hear this affordable vacation spot described as “Heaven on Earth”, and words like “Wonderful Hospitality”, and “Magnificent Hospitality”, give you more than a clue as to how good the staff are at what they do for you here. Often heard are descriptions like “A Wonderful Place”, “Beautiful Surroundings”, “Paradise found”, which has to tell you something.
It is very rare to hear a bad word said about Thatch Caye Resort, and in fact there is a definite feeling that guests are quite anxious to keep what has been described as “An Undiscovered Gem”, exactly that, and frankly who can blame them.As a base for Scuba Diving in Belize Thatch Caye Resort is hard to beat, and descriptions like “The healthiest and most pristine reef “, should inspire divers to book this cheap vacation destination for that reason alone.
