Reviews and Ratings
I couldn't have asked for a better location - right by the beach and close to the bar/restaurant. The room with a kitchenette was lovely, offering convenience for quick snacks and the stunning ocean view was a real treat. It felt cozy and had that perfect beach vibe, ideal for a getaway.
This hotel offers cozy rooms with some need for updating, but overall provides a quaint experience. The service is exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to make guests feel welcome. The location, right on West Beach, is unbeatable with easy access to the beach. The dining options are varied and delicious, enhancing the overall stay. However, the facilities could use some improvement to meet modern standards.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The location was amazing with a beautiful beach right in front and great access to the island's nightlife and activities. The rooms, although lacking TVs which was a letdown, offered a decent deal considering the price and location.
I had an amazing time at this hotel! The rooms were super cozy and made my stay very comfortable. The service was above-and-beyond, with staff who were so friendly and helpful. The location was perfect, right by the best beach in Roatan. The dining experience was delicious, although it could have started a bit earlier. Overall, a fantastic stay with great value for money.
