Beachfront vacation rentals in Sandy Bay

Jennifer and Tommy were amazing host, arranged pick up at airport, greeted us when we arrived and provided numerous helpful suggestions. Loved sitting on the porch drinking our morning coffee watching macaws and hummingbirds forage in nearby trees. Snorkeled every morning at turtle bay saw many species of fish, rays, lobsters. Loved taking the water taxi to West bay and West end. Highly recommend the fire show at Bannarama on Sunday it was amazing. So many great restaurants to choose from. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer. Thank you again Jennifer and Tommy, looking forward to returning again someday.

We had a wonderful stay at the Calabash Reef House! You can see the ocean through the swaying palm trees and hear the waves. The reef just off the shared dock is beautiful. The neighbors are super friendly and helpful. A few things to know: You must have a 4x4 or AWD to get to the house (or a motorbike). There are several very steep hills once you leave the main road. If you have a pet hair allergy this is not a good place to stay - there is a lot of cat hair in every nook and cranny. The water can be rather tricky if you are there in the dry season. You will need to be very frugal and keep a close eye on tank levels. In order to fill the tanks you will need to turn the pump on and off twice a week at set times - and they don't always get full. This little neighborhood is very isolated. It is at least a 20-minute drive to a restaurant and there are not many restaurants on the east end. If you want nightlife stay on the west end. Personally, we like the quiet of the east end.

Husky Hideaway Apartments are a wonderful place to stay!! Caroline was extremely helpful before and during our stay with helping us organize activities and a driver. The apartment had everything we needed for our stay and it was a GREAT location; close enough to walk into town for diving, shopping, and restaurants, but just far enough away that it was very quiet from the “main strip” hustle. We would definitely stay here again! We are not “resort people” and this was perfect and homey and allowed us to really have a comfortable place to come home to after diving and exploring!

The home is even more stunning in person than in the photos. The master bedroom is spacious and gorgeous, and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. The downstairs bedrooms are a bit darker, but our kids didn’t mind at all—they absolutely loved their space. One of the highlights of our trip was being able to snorkel right off the front of the house, which was an amazing experience. We also booked a snorkeling trip with Joe, who picked us up right from the house by boat and took us to swim with nurse sharks—an unforgettable adventure! The road leading to the house is unpaved, but we had no trouble getting there in a small SUV—just take it slow. The airport is about 30 minutes away, and Eldon’s grocery store is a convenient 15-minute drive. Dave, the property manager, was always nearby and super helpful whenever we needed anything.

Lovely 🥰 we had a wonderful time everything was beautiful. Thank You Mabel & George.

Very comfortable, we had a balcony that we could people watch on West end road. The kitchen was very modern even tho we didn’t use it. I will definitely stay there again. For the price it was money well spent

Another review said the vibe was better in person and they were 100% correct! The vibes are great The house is really well kept and functional. AC kept the bedroom nice and cool for sleeping. I found opening the porch doors and living room windows with the fans on kept that area at a reasonable temperature. Housekeeping was done every day and lots of towels were provided (no beach towels though). They have shampoo, conditioner, body soap and lotion in the bathroom. The porch was EVERYTHING! I laid in the hammock every night and read. The breeze out there was lovely. One day it stormed all day and it was nice to lay in the hammock reading and listening to the sound of the storm. The location is right in the middle of west end and yet the bedroom is quiet! I always travel with earplugs, in case, but only one night I could slightly hear some bass from a near by club, and even then I didn’t need my ear plugs. The also arranged an airport transfer for $30 each way.

Our stay at this house was simply spectacular. The architecture is stunning, with spacious and comfortable areas perfect for resting and relaxing. Everything was exactly as shown in the photos. A true highlight was the breathtaking ocean view and the privilege of snorkeling right in front of the house—an unforgettable experience. We also want to highlight Giuseppe’s attention and kindness. He was always cheerful, helpful, and extremely responsive to all our questions. He made sure everything was perfect throughout our stay. Without a doubt, it was a wonderful experience that we would love to repeat.

If you’re looking for a home to relax and enjoy an amazing view this is the place. The house slept 7 of us comfortably. Nice common spaces yet still private. Well equipped kitchen where we made a lot of meals. Grocery only 10-15 min away. The cove restaurant next door was nice for dinner and drinks and even live music. The dive shop is located there too and can arrange dives. Snorkel trips, fishing . Anything you ask. The pool made for relaxing days soaking up the sun while looking f at paradise. From the time we arrived at the airport until the time we left, Salome made everything effortless . She provided us with rental cars (recommend), drove us to a catamaran tour and waited for us all day, and offered tons on information about the island . She was always just a text away. If you’re looking for a great time , a great house, and a great host this is it! Ps- if you see Gretchen (pup that lives on island) give her a hug, an ear scratch , and some food for me 💕

This house was AMAZING!! The perfect quiet location, incredibly clean, and felt very safe. The house was well stocked with all the amenities, had excellent AC and was meticulously maintained, we would absolutely stay again!

The place honestly was better than expected. The pictures didn’t do it justice, it was a beautiful location. You felt like you’re in a tropical rainforest. The beach is so close. Susan was super responsive and helpful. We enjoyed our stay immensely. I would definitely book again.

Hi place was great! Carla and the crew were great at welcoming us! Felt very safe. Convenient location to airport allthough I recommend a car or mode of transportation. Great dock , deck, pool and right in the beach and water. About 10 minute drive from West End with many restaurants and some night life. Some live music and great sunsets!! I would highly recommend this host and the property. Kevin May 2024

Loved it so much I came back! Great space, very comfortable and good location -And extremely well equipped!

Bella Luna offered a fantastic location to snorkel right off of the beach and have many local restaurants within close proximity of the property. Unfortunately during our stay, the two restaurants on either side of the property were temporarily closed, there were man delicious places to eat within a very short walk. The unit itself had everything we needed for our stay. Full kitchen and amenities as well as beach/pool towels. I love that they use a local soap artisan for their guest soaps in all of their properties! Marvin is the caretaker and is very prompt in the morning to clean up the landscape, rake the beach area, and make sure everything is clean for the day. We have stayed at several Roatan Life properties and their staff is always top-notch and offer incredible service. Would highly recommend staying at a Roatan Life property in the future.

From our first communication, I was very pleased with the level of communication. Vanessa (property manager) was the main POC once the booking was confirmed and was amazing. The proximity to the dive centre 200ft was amazing and made it super easy. Vanessa brought over her own coffee grinder to support us and helped book our excursions and rides. The location is amazing as we were on the reef and could swim out to see an abundance of fish and undersea creatures!!! There are fins, floaters and kayaks to use as well. The house was very large with every amenity, pot and pan you need.

la casa de cassondra es un sueño, la zona es muy tranquila y si bien me costó encontrarla porque no estaba coorecta la ubicacion en el mapa, cassondra me había indicado como llegar y yo no vi esas recomendaciones. Ojala algun día pueda volver a ese lugar tan lindo, las vistas al mar son increibles y un especial agradecimento a Catie que siempre estuvo pendiente para que mi estadía sea la mejor. Sin dudas un lugar maravilloso que lo recomiendo a otros visitantes de la isla. Gracias Cassondra y Catie!!

La casa de playa de Ryan es un lugar muy bonito, relajante y tranquilo. Todo estaba bastante limpio, está muy bien equipado (juegos de mesa, suficientes toallas, electrodomésticos, utensilios para cocinar, Kayaks, etc), los aires acondicionados funcionan muy bien. Tiene una excelente vista al mar, sin embargo hay que tener en cuenta que no se puede bañar en el área que está frente a la casa, ya que es poco profundo (el agua llega a los tobillos), pero si usas los kayaks y avanzas unos 100 metros a la derecha, puedes nadar en el área de los manglares, donde el nivel del agua es más profundo, color azul turquesa. También mencionar que Ryan siempre estuvo atento sobre nuestra estadía y Kendra es una persona muy amable, nos obsequió unas ricas donas hechas en casa, que estaban deliciosas. Definitivamente recomiendo este alojamiento y espero volver pronto.

We had a fantastic stay at The Pink Orchid in Roatan! The house was spotless, and communication about the rental, amenities, and local attractions was excellent. Al was always in touch before our visit, making sure we had all the details we needed. The location is perfect—both West Bay and West End are easily walkable from the beach. The dock is a great spot for a swim, and there’s even a bit of snorkeling just north of it. We highly recommend this rental for anyone visiting the area!

This place was awesome. I especially liked waking every morning to a beautiful ocean view ! The small cafe down the street was great for breakfast. Food at Lorettas was good as well. We did not eat at the gastropub as it really was so small and you needed reservations and there are so many good places in town. Yahongreh or Sandy Buns for breakfast, Gingers or Booty Bar (a little loud) for lunch. Best supper we had was at The Drunken Sailor. The wagon with the beach chairs and flotation things were a great bonus! We felt like locals walking down with our cool stuff. Snorkeling in front of Gingers is awesome. Make sure and take a water taxi to Igabari for a spectacular meal !!! Thank you for a great stay!

Lara’s Dream is right on the water of course and plenty of snorkeling if you’re up for a bit of walking through some shallows. There are dive boats at the reef a few hundred yards away every day. The house is simple and comfortable with basic kitchen items and appliances. The bedroom has AC which is very nice @ night. We spent most of the daylight hours on the balcony overlooking the sea. Lenora is the house manager, she is a gem! Picked us up at the airport and dropped us off at the airport for a modest fee. Both Lenora and Laraine were super communicative at all times. Laraine provided a lot of really helpful information as well. We did scuba diving roommate, it some really nice restaurants, nearby, and walking distance . I’m also a bird watcher and hired a local bird guide to show me around the island and he showed me some incredible birds that I never would’ve found on my own . We had a really nice time and will likely come back someday I recommend Laura’s dream.

El lugar es precioso, despertar y ver el mar en frente es maravilloso! Luke es un 7 como persona y como cara visible del lugar, se portó muy bien y nos ayudó siempre. Si se quieren desconectar se los recomiendo 100%

We booked this place because of it's location and the fantastic reviews and it did not disappoint. As many others have said, Zorro is an excellent host. He is very responsive to messages, coordinates pick up to and from the airport, and is always available to make sure you have an amazing stay. He quickly became like family, always greeting us with a smile and offering suggestions for resturants, excursions, and will help hook you up with some of the locals to easily arrange water taxis and tours that will immerse you in the local culture. The house was perfect for our family of 3 and we felt at home during our entire stay. Well stocked with anything you could need including drinking water. The location is the real highlight. It is perfectly situated between West Bay and West End and private and secluded. The beach is just steps from the back porch with lounge chairs, a covered bar area, and a dock for water taxi access. The property is just so beautiful and relaxing. We will be back.

Nous avons adoré notre séjour à Casa Verde. Si on cherche un endroit hors des sentiers touristiques, c’est la place! Mais nous avons dû louer un véhicule pour pouvoir sortir, ne serait-ce que pour faire l’épicerie! A moins de payer 25$ pour un taxi! Le site est SUPER agréable, au bout d’un chemin, sur une pointe qui s’avance dans la mer. Le site d’apnée est fantastique et très grand. On pouvait explorer plusieurs récifs différents et nous avons vu de superbes « purple fans », une tortue, des raies et plusieurs sortes de poissons. Sur le site, il y a plusieurs endroits de détente et la piscine est assez grande pour pouvoir un peu nager. Le chalet, le lit, la douche, … tout était très, très confortable. On y a super bien dormi, à écouter les vagues de la mer se fracasser sur les rochers! Il peut y avoir beaucoup de vent et donc, le sel marin fait rouiller le métal. Beaucoup de choses étaient rongées par le sel. Pat, l’hôte, est très réactif et sympathique! Merci !

Stayed a week in the upper unit of Jennifer’s place in Sandy Bay. It felt like spending a week at our family cottage, but we had dolphins playing 30 ft from the dock! Her place was cozy with lots of room. Nice touches of having kayaks and paddle boards for use, games to play, and books to read. We regularly swam from the dock and enjoyed the marine life that the famous Roatan reef had to offer. The unit is located in a real Honduran neighborhood, that comes with children, chickens and dogs, but that only added to the experience. We regularly walked one direction to enjoy the restaurant at Anthony’s Key, and the other way down the beach to blue Bahia and Sunken fish for dining and diving! Thank you Jennifer ( and Paul) for letting us enjoy your space🥰
