Hotels near Roatan Institute for Marine Sciences

"An absolute gem in West End! Staff is fantastic all around. We never had contact with a staff member who didn't greet us, smile or ask if we needed something. We want to recognize specifically Santiago and his never wavering positive attitude and genuine desire to assist. Our room was exactly what we needed, cleaned everyday, quality fixtures, tasteful decor and fully functional for our needs with a nice outdoor patio. The boutique-style hotel offers a coffee shop, Bean Crazy, which serves a nice included breakfast menu, or for less than $20 USD you can have a full breakfast which will fill you right up. The coffee is roasted across the hall and is delicious. Need a souvenir? Attached to Bean Crazy you'll find it at a reasonable cost. On site security officers kept the hotel and beach area across the street at bay and were always friendly. During ceuise ship days expect the beach areas to get busy, but never fear Mr. Tucan's keeps a beach chair for you. We never were without a chair for our 10 day stay. The beach area is kept clean by the local population. The bay has a large buoy area for snorkeling, swimming and paddleboarding. The beach area is fairly shallow throughout, usually not exceeding 10 feet. If you're looking for local food, entertainment and shopping it is all within a short walk and we never had a bad meal. From street side stands to upscale dining this area has it all. All-in-all there is no need to look elsewhere. Mr. Tucan's is a top pick."

"Our stay at Blue Bahia exceeded our expectations. Owners were very friendly, helpful, and available during our stay with daily WhatsApp updates. Restaurant/ bar has excellent food and drinks for reasonable prices. On site dive shop is a plus as they are very professional and reasonable as well with small dive groups. "

"Yes the view to the ocean is so beautiful "

"Great staff, great food. The beach is beautiful and very peaceful and private. The bungalow rooms have small kitchenettes and very comfortable beds. Very quiet to sleep at night. Great reef to snorkel right off of the dock at this property. Included breakfast was excellent every day. Their restaurant also serves great lunches and dinners till 8pm. Free WiFi is available on the entire premises. Recommend renting a car because nothing is in walking distance from this property. There is no pool only the beautiful beach and ocean. They do have a boat on property that does snorkeling tours and sunset cruises. They do rent snorkeling gear for $15 for your entire stay and include free usage of kayaks and paddle boards. Great place to stay and family friendly. Only about 10 rooms available on site. Highly recommend!!!"

"No transportation from airport. No pool. No restaurant. No wi-fi unless you sign up for staff phone when checking in. No staff on site after you check- in. No brochures to give you ideas of things to do or maps to find way around Roatan. Only 1/3 roll toilet paper in room- no stock or housekeeping available. Make shift haphazard and exposed rigged wiring. Rusty wire soap holder mounted in the shower, sink would not drain, multiple little packets “poison” lying in planters on veranda, film of slime in corners, rickety and winding stairs and horrible driveway at near 90 degree incline BUT awesome views of ocean. "

"A very pleasant vacation once again at Guava Grove. Thanks for everything!! "

"Incredible stay (and I’m a harsh critic). Beautifully designed rooms, filtered water and espresso in-room daily, and hands-down the best food and drinks of our trip. Amazing views from the restaurant and a private waterfront deck just for guests. Can’t wait to return. Thank you to the staff and front of house for being so welcoming!!!"

"Not enough towels lots of ants in room, the area was ok i guess seems pretty secured, no staffs latenights early mornings "
