About the host
Hosted by Shelby and Sean
The owners, Shelby and Sean, are glad you found Añoranza and look forward to sharing the Añoranza Experience with you.
Añoranza also means to the owners, stop longing for your dreams and make them happen. Shelby and Sean enjoy beach destinations and traveling the Caribbean, Central America and Mexico. Many times, while they were on vacation, they found themselves saying, "I wish we could share this spot with friends and family." The desire to share an amazing place with family and friends is what started their journey through Central America to find the perfect location to build their dream home.
In 2015, they traveled to Roatán after Shelby suggested checking it out because she loved it when she visited on a cruise, 10 years before.
As soon as they stepped onto the lot in Punta Blanca, and saw the view that would eventually turn into Añoranza's, they knew this was where their dream would come true.
They purchased the lot at the end of 2015 and after working with a local architect for over a year on the design of Añoranza, their dream came to life July 2017 when they started construction on the 3-bedroom Villa. It took about 1.5 years to finish the construction but in Feb 2019, the Villa was finished and the doors were opened to guests, May 1st, 2019.
In 2020, the island was closed to tourist because of COVID-19, from March until August, so they started construction on the Casita, April 2020. The Casita was finished April 2021 and the doors were open to guests May 1st, 2021, exactly 2 years from when the doors were opened to the Villa.
Stop longing for a vacation and start living! The reef awaits! Come stay with us!!
CHEERS! SALUD!

Why they chose this property
People always ask us, "Why Roatan?". We looked at Mexico, Costa Rica, Belize, Panama and Roatán before we decided where our dream would be born. When you see the view, you will know why we chose the quiet community of Punta Blanca.
WHY ROATÁN:
* It's a little over 2 hour direct flight from Houston.
* It has the #1 ranked beach in Central America, West Bay Beach but our favorite beach is a less known beach, Camp Bay Beach. Shhhh let’s keep it our secret.
* It has the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world, the Mesoamerican barrier reef, right off the shoreline of Añoranza.
* The reef supports amazing marine life that attracts scuba divers, free-divers, and snorkelers from all over the world to come explore.
* It also provides calm, protected waters for kayaking, paddleboarding, kiteboarding, fly fishing and other water sports.
* A quick boat ride from Añoranza, just on the other side of the reef, you are in deep waters perfect for deep sea fishing.
* It has an amazing Pete Dye designed 18 hole golf course.
* It is part of the "Bay Islands" which means we can explore other islands, a boat or ferry ride away such as Utila, Guanaco, and Cayos Cochinos. There are also small uninhabited islands like Pigeon Cay to explore and have a picnic on.
* It offers zip lining and ATV tours through the jungle
* CEMESA hospital in French Harbor takes U.S. Insurance
* It was a British Commonwealth so most of the locals speak english.
* It has amazing history, culture, people and food
