Jones wrote of the film, "An adventure saga influenced by elements from the fiction of Robert Louis Stevenson, Mark Twain, and others—then illustrates those elements through the nostalgic and memorable prism of the Walt Disney Productions house style—Treasure of Matecumbe is as wonderful a depiction of... whimsy and imagination. […], Treasure of Matecumbe includes murder, mystery and an exciting journey in the search of the treasure of Matecumbe [Key]." Upon its release in 1976, The Treasure of Matacumbe premiered throughout the U.S. and was a moderate success. As of 2020, the motion picture has been available on Disney+.
