  • “My now-husband and I, along with 32 close family and friends, had THE BEST wedding + reception on Thatch Caye. We were able to rent the entire island with only our wedding guests for several days. Liz, the wedding planner, went above and beyond to make sure our dreams became reality. During our stay, we got to lobster/conch/crab hunt while snorkeling, scuba diving, fishing off the island, and receiving THE BEST 90-minute hot stone couples massage. The entire staff was so incredibly nice and accommodating.”

  • “We had a wonderful experience eloping at Thatch Caye. Every member of the staff made us feel special, giving us the privacy we wanted yet being attentive to our every request. Special thanks to Kamal! Loved our overwater bungalow and peaceful surroundings; Eliza’s meals were superb; my massage with Reina was exceptional! The wedding decorations were lovely, the cake outrageous and Mr. Arrias took fabulous photos that we will cherish.”

  • “This Resort exceeded all of my expectations for my destination wedding. The island was beautifully maintained, and the staff did an amazing job of keeping the island clean and beautiful. The employees were incredibly friendly and really made the trip special. Within two days the employees knew all of our names (around 30 people). Lizbeth planned the most beautiful wedding and reception. I was speechless with the setup and attention to detail.”
