About this property

Modern Beachfront Casita with Dock and pool ON THE BEACH

This unit is the first floor/ground level of the house. It has it's own entrance with a screened in lanai and open covered patio facing the beach. Large comfortable space has breathtaking ocean views, with access to the beach and a community pool.

This 2 bedroom casita sleeps 6 and has everything to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. A fully equipped kitchen, TV, free wifi, and A/C, plus full size washer dryer. There are SUP boards and kayaks for rent. This property has easy access to transportation, and it is close to the airport, West End, West Bay Beach and grocery stores.

The property is unique to Roatan. Just off the main road to a private beach area that is part of the Roatan Marine Park preserve. The reef system parallels the white sand beach of Sandy Bay. A safe and calm area to swim and explore the waters abundant with tropical fish and corals. This is a quiet tranquil area without high end hotels and condos but close to the tourist meccas.

The quiet sandy beach includes a private 300 ft. long pier accessible only by the small Sundancer community. The pier has an upper deck for sunning, and a shaded palapa over the water.

Just off Sundancer's Pier to the right is a natural deep water channel that allows larger sea life to come and go on the reef. Often seen are large squads of squid, eagle rays, turtles, huge grouper and large parrot fish. This natural opening in the reef also makes it easy for boats to pick you up for fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling and touring.

Property is conveniently located in upper Sandy Bay, with grocery stores just 5 minutes away. West End is about a 6 minute taxi ride headed West. The airport is a 10 – 15 minute ride away. The long Sandy Bay Beach stretch offers a variety of Roatan Island activities. The Salty Mango restaurant is right next door, to the east, and Lawson’s Rock is next door to the west, with a morning café, and restaurant. Anthony’s Key Resort is 1 mile to the west, with dolphin encounters, restaurant, plus a medical facility, offering COVID testing. You can rent a car or scooter to explore the island as well.

This beach has some of the best snorkeling on the island. you will see dive boats that take tourists out to the reef that you can swim to. We look forward to hosting you!

Great place to stay while visiting Roatan

We booked this property because it was centrally located and right on the beach. Lodging was clean with good amenities and the property was nice to explore. Easy to find right off the main road with easy access to explore the island. Snorkeling was pretty good right off the dock. We’d definitely come back again if we find ourselves returning to Roatan.

The place was right on the beach with the dock. I was unsure, that the listing, stated entire house but we only got the bottom section. Which is okay with it being just my husband and I. Our intention was to relax and decompress, and that's what we did

Beautiful home in paradise

Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this home. It provided everything we were looking for. The beds were comfortable, all the items we needed were there for us and it was in a nice quiet area. The view of the ocean was stunning and it was fun to be able to use the dock. The owner was accommodating and easy to get in touch with. The property manager was also helpful while we were there. We can't wait to return some day!!

Amazing stay on the beach

Our stay at the Casita was everything we hoped it would be! From being steps to the water, right on the beach to the great accommodations, we couldn’t have asked for more! Conrad was so wonderful, accommodating our schedule & very responsive, as was his property manager. The grounds are meticulously kept and the pool was an added bonus! And sunsets on the dock with our neighbors & new friends are NOT to be missed— everyone was so friendly & helpful to us as first time visitors!! Can’t recommend this place enough— you won’t be disappointed!!

Nice place

Enjoyed our stay. Very thankful for property mngr and arranging a car for us; you will definitely need a vehicle to stay here. Assumed we could swim out from the shore as well but found out you can not due to turtle grasses. That was a bummer with having small kids with us but jumping off the dock was fun. Definitely recommend bringing snorkel equipment.

Beautiful location, beautiful place , beautiful view. I have mark this place as the best home rental I every been to. Owner and property manager were very helpful and amazing. Secluded community not too far from everything. You could hangout at the beach, swim in the pool, sun bath on the dock, fish, and snorkel, go to multiple restaurants within short walking distance from the rental. Insect repellent is a must for lounging or activities outdoors. I WILL definitely be back.

Great location and the property manager, Luke, was very responsive. The only issue with staying on the first floor is that you hear every foot step and chairs moving above you. Hopefully this issue will be solved by putting something on the second floor wooden floors.

Wonderful Stay

This property is in a great location. The weather was cloudy and very windy much of the time we were there so not much beach time. But lying in the hammocks with a good book was awesome. Luke was very attentive and responsive to our needs. I would definitely stay here again. As per other reviews there was a slight sewer smell once in awhile. All of the appliances worked well, the beds were comfortable and clean. We went to Coconuts a few times to eat and enjoy the staff there. Thank you Luke and Conrad!!

Wonderful family trip

We had a great time in roatan, we had a little trouble finding our house for the week but I found the grounds keeping who called Vanessa the property manager and had him show me the way, then she came about an hour later to make sure we got in ok and give us more water since she was leaving out of town for the weekend, we exchanged Facebooks in case we needed to get a hold of her and sure enough I couldn't find the broom and dust also we needed life vest,she was able to tell me where to find all cleaning tools and had her husband drop off the life vest the next morning, the grounds keepers kept the beach and surrounding area clean and beautiful, and Angel the night security guard we had was wonderful to talk to he brought our girls fruits to try and showed them fish he caught off the dock, we felt safe and comfortable there and can't wait to go again, we'll definitely rent from Conrad again he was helpful and responded quickly. Thank you again for the wonderful stay at your beautiful beach home next we will want to still at least 2 weeks

Tropical paradise

We had an amazing stay here! The house was very clean and comfortable. The enclosed patio was such an nice bonus as I enjoyed lots of time drinking my coffee in the morning and watching amazing sunsets in the evening. Plenty of nice appliances and a grill, so lots of options if you want to cook. If not, lots of restaurants nearby to choose from. Even at the gas station! Obviously being beach front was absolutely amazing but the landscaping was also just so beautiful. Our boys also loved the pool. Good location in Sandy Bay, not to far from West End or West Bay. We stayed 3 weeks, so having access to a washer and dryer was super helpful. Also really nice that the drinking water was provided during our whole stay and definitely appreciated the americanized plumbing. Fully recommend!

Great getaway

Stayed from the 10th-15th of January, had a blast. Construction was going on next door, but it was virtually unnoticeable and many workers smiled and waved as we passed. Casita is no frills but comfortable and right on the beach-- a great location to sit on porch for coffee and watch the ocean. The dock is also great to hang out on in a hammock or to swim out to the reef. The reef is a fairly long swim but if you are an average or above snorkeler you should have little problem getting out there. Very decent snorkeling overall, many parrotfish/ reef fish, lobsters, eels and the like. Luke the property manager set up a sunset cruise for us that turned out to be great fun. Would definitely recommend, distance to West End is maybe 10" car ride or so, which we found quite acceptable for the peace and quiet obtained. Thanks!

Chill and Convenient

10 steps from dock! Beautiful sunsets and constant views of the water! Easy to communicate with host, Luke and people passing by. Meeting each night with our community to discuss the days snorkeling and watch sunset was fantastic! Linda and Rick were amazing at setting up 8:00 snorkeling and making sure we knew where to go and keeping us safe from boats. Everyone staying in our area was very kind and shared a love of the sea. Suggestions: Lounge chairs would have been nice and suggestions to deal with sand fleas. Signage to find place (could have been due to road construction) would be helpful. Will soon need a new water cooler! Overall very pleased with our first visit to Roatan and we will return! BEST SNORKELING EVER!

Roatan Beach Stay

The property is a beautiful ground floor casita. The view is as good as it gets. Steps from the beach, clear ocean views and a private dock to enjoy sunsets, sunrises and sharing good stories with neighbors from the small sundancer community. The barrier reef is an easy swim from shore. Kitchen is well appointed, the smaller living room has ocean views and the sundecks of the casita ( screened one side and open the other) are perfect. Luke the property manager was great throughout. Any issue was taken care of quickly. He even helped us with a rental car debacle (Its good to know people). In short it is exactly what you would expect of an ocean front casita. There is a restaurant (CocoNuts) adjacent to the sundancer community and is an excellent gathering place with fantastic food. Owners and staff are extremely friendly. We would definitely come here again!

Nice place on the beach

We had a great stay overall. House was comfortable and right on he beach with a nice view from the porch and dock to swim off of and watch the sunsets. The manager was responsive to any issue we had and very nice. They were able to diminish the strong sewer odor from the septic located right off the porch. The smell diminishes the enjoyment of the porch for sure. The owner also had workman at the unit upstairs starting a 7:30 in the morning for several days we were there. It would have been nice to be notified of this and coordinated for days we where away instead of days we planed to be at the house or days the home was empty. It was quite loud. There are several restaurants within walking distance and a good dive shop just a few minute walk up the beach. The Circle K actually has decent inexpensive food.

Roatan

I thought it was in a good location as we rented a car so we could go whenever we wanted. The rental was in a quiet area but the west end was close enough to have fun. It was nice to have the big grocery store on the island close as well. We rented a kayak from Conrad and paddled out to the reef and snorkeled most days. The snorkeling was awesome. The only thing I would definitely recommend is to buy some bright orange buoy so boats can see you. There is a lot of boat traffic that could be a problem if they don’t see you. The air condition was good and the washer/dryer being on site was very convenient. The only thing I didn’t love with the rental was the plastic chairs on the porch. It would be nice to sit out there in something more comfortable. There was also open areas in the screen porch which made it easy for bugs to get in. Overall we had a great vacation

A relaxing escape with the family

We had a wonderful 3 weeks in Roatan at this beachfront locale. Sunsets were spectacular! Everything was as described and comfortable with all we needed to live on for our long stay. The BBQ was a necessity for us as we enjoyed grilling the fish provided by the local fish monger. We thoroughly enjoyed being on the ocean and were snorkeling or swimming each and every day. The snorkeling is a short swim offshore and recommended - remember to bring a safety float. Conrad and Maritza were helpful and responsive if any issues came up. The island of Roatan is still in need of much improvement with its infrastructure but power outages are fewer than in the past and local taxis are abundant and of reasonable cost (best to use Lempiras to get to Eldon's Grocery store etc). Hopefully when we return there will be some sidewalks in place as walking beside the road here is not safe. A few minor fixes to the Lanai screen and a number of the doors would be advised. Also, a comfy lounge chair on the deck would have been a perfect addition. Overall a great chill holiday.

Great Roatan Casita Stay

Property description and pictures were very accurate. Casita was well equipped, clean and as described. Beds were comfy. Bath towels and beach towels were provided and in good shape. Kitchen appliances were all new and great, including a blender. Only thing missing is wine glasses. Was nice having enough jugs of water provided for our stay. Had a minor issue with the door lock and property manager responded and resolved quickly. Bathroom is older but sufficient, could use a new showerhead. Wifi was quick. Property grounds were well maintained, pool was clean. Beach is lovely, but fairly weedy, though off end of dock is much better. Could use some lounge chairs for the beach/dock. Some noise from the upstairs visitors (5 teens in that party), however not a deal breaker and property manager did ask them to be mindful of downstairs renters (us). Property owner happened to be on site while we were there, he is very nice and all communication with him before and during stay was good. Overall a great stay at a great casita. thanks again!!

About the host

Hosted by Conrad McGinnis

Host profile image
Hello I'm Conrad
I fell in love with Central America decades ago with the simplistic beauty and diversity of the various countries . I currently own property in Mexico, Belize and Roatan Honduras .
Here is Roatan , I fell in love with the Sandy Bay area for the diving, snorkeling and activities. You will find a few of my listings in SunDancer Cabanas (right next door) and The Jolly Octopus, which was at one time a very popular beach bar but now converted into a unique beach house that kept the cool beach bar vibe.
This listing (El Presidio) has a 2nd story Villa and Casita on the ground floor. They can be rented together at a discounted price for large groups up to 16 people. Just ask for rates for the whole home.

Why they chose this property

If you dream about going to vacation on an island , why not stay at a large, comfortable property that is on the beach, has a very large 2 story dock, best snorkeling on the island and has access to a pool?

What makes this property unique

This property is beautiful, nestled in a lush tropical well maintained garden setting, sitting right on the beach, facing the water. Walk into the water and enjoy some of the best snorkeling on the island right at your doorstep.
