We were a 3 generation family, total of 8 people. The house is piger than expected. The master bedroom and its on suite, the living spaces, indoor and out are very large. You are directly on the beach as advertised. This is a private comunity of around 20 houses, but most days we were alone on the beach. The kitchen is very well equiped, micro-wave, toaster oven, instint pot and rice maker. The BBQ works but is a little scary, the botton is all rusted out. We did find 4 restaurants that we can walk to. A small gas station with some drinks and snacks also within walking distance. The bulding manager is always available and did get us a trusted taxi driver. Only 2 things we disliked. 1- only 1 loundge chair available for the beach, so if you like to get a tan by the beach, no chairs. But the beach is raked every day, it's always very clean. 2- If you like walking in the ocean to enjoy the water, not possible. There is turtle grass and you will sink in the mud to your calfs. You can go at the end of the pier, they are steps to go in the water, but not suitable for kids. On a very possitive note, the coral reaf if accessible if you swim out to it. It is very worthed! But do bring an inflatable boey, you will cross a navigation channel but it's not very busy. We did meet a few other people at the pool, everyone was very nice, visitors like us and owners.

Great set up by host & manager. Very attentive to any issue that came up, even an unforeseen A/C repair was handled promptly & efficiently. Excellent top deck, loved the hummingbirds, got good use of the barbeque. Good recommendation on local driver who took us everywhere we needed to go all week. Fun kayaking & snorkeling right out from off our dock. New Years Eve in West End was a highlight as well. Would recommend this place to anyone!

The house is amazing, clean, spacious, quiet. The neighborhood is really what we were looking for… kids playing soccer on the beach at dusk, fishing, having fun… the peer right in front is the perfect spot to go snorkeling (bring your buoys, the reef is not right in front, but very close, swim pass the turtle grass and the fun begins!) Best snorkeling, tons of fish, rays and we saw turtles right on the channel which is amazing because a lot of deeper sea species thrive there… we rent a kayak to go further on the reef and it was great! The manager, Luke, was always there to answer our questions or help us out. I will definitly rent that place again… and the pool is also really nice! Shared among a few properties but a good way to meet your neighbours and get rid of the salt!!!!! Everyone on this island was absolutly kind and helpful… (there is a bar at the entrance of the road if you want to have more fun, and if you walk 10 minutes east on the beach there is Sol y Mar, where if you buy a drink, you have access to the clean water to swim in, sand games, volley ball and hammocks)

Our group absolutely loved our stay. We rented the upstairs and downstairs and had plenty of room. The home had everything we could have possibly needed. We loved the views from the front porch and upper balcony. The beds were comfy. Linens were in good condition. And the house is beautifully decorated. The owner was very accomodating and our comfort and enjoyment was his priority. We can't wait to go back some day!

Upsides: The property is on the beach and has a beautiful view of the ocean with access to a shared pool and dock. The location is not close to West Bay or West End, so you should arrange for some kind of car or taxi service to visit areas with restaurants/nightlife. Downsides: The owner of the property is not the person who is on-site. We had an issue with the SUPs and kayaks, which are available for rent but at pretty steep prices, and payment is due upfront. We ended up not being able to use them because the water is not as calm as in other locations on the island and due to the wind. It was clear that using the rentals was unsafe after our initial go. Our on-site host did not inform us of the risks with the wind and seemed unconcerned by our negative experience. When we asked for a partial refund on day three due to the water conditions, we were rebuffed, and the owner was unresponsive. The life preservers offered with rentals are blue and black and cannot be seen by boats. Beware if you choose to use them in open water or to swim to the reef. Also, three people who used the life preservers in the water as floats had large patches of bites on their legs. The host, again, was defensive and unconcerned when we brought this up to him. The water is very shallow, and the beach is not ideal for swimming or using equipment. The dock is the primary access point for water recreation. There is a distinct sewage smell on the property--something to note if you're sensitive to smells. The home doesn’t include any written instructions, so you must rely on the host to share information.

If you are looking for a perfect view and a peaceful atmosphere this is the place on Roatan!

We loved our stay here…the house was perfect for us, comfortable and clean. Communication was easy and efficient. The views were spectacular. We could snorkel right from the property and had east access to groceries. The property manager was great! He communicated well with us and made us feel very welcome. We will stay again on our next trip to the island!
