Om boendet

Purple Jawfish Beach House på Private White Sand Beach Front Amazing Reef!

Detta strandnära hus är inte stor, men har en stor öppen planlösning som är perfekt för ett par på en romantisk ö flyktbilen. Beläget på en privat strand fylld med kokos lager palmer och en rådande östra Trade Wind, har lila Jawfish Beach House kallats den bästa semesterboende för par av många gäster på andra semesterboende webbplatser. Huset har nyligen varit gut-renoverade och är som ny. Kök, matplats, sittande / läshörna och sovalkov är alla väl definieras av unika räknare, en honduransk lövträd anpassade bokhylla och en armoire. Köket har alla nya rostfria vitvaror (ingen diskmaskin men) och en nedsänkt djup diskho på en unik öre halvö bänk. Det finns 20 fot av 4 fot höga fönster på framsidan och sidan av huset (15 fot av dem ser direkt ut över stranden till Karibiska havet och bergen bortom). Det är verkligen fantastiskt att se.


Det finns ett nytt däck med en svängande loveseat där ett par kan titta på små vågorna bryter försiktigt på stranden (norra sidan av ön har de större vågor. Huset ligger på en sällsynt (för Utila eftersom det inte är otroligt sandiga på stränderna) sträcka av vit sandstrand i Snorkling hotspot stadsdelen Blue Bayou, som sträcker sig ut framför den Mesoamerican revet. Bergskedjan Cordillera Nombre de Dios reser sig på avstånd från fastlandet och på de flesta dagar du har en fantastisk utsikt över bergstopparna över Karibien trots att de är mer än 20 miles away. En snabb sökning på Google map satellit kommer att visa dig varför vi tycker Blue Bayou är det absolut bästa område för snorkling eller stranden dykning tillgänglig för semester hyresgäster. Revet i detta område är oöverträffad och är precis framför huset. Det enda som skiljer dig från vattnet är cirka 50 fot av vit sand och några palmer. Några av dem är mogna palmer som producerar kokosnötter. Till vänster om huset finns bara mandelträd, palmer och sand. Till höger närheten av Blue Bayou sträcker ut för ett par hus (det är inte stor alls). Detta är det bästa området på Utila för semesterbostäder på grund av dess närhet till allt du behöver på en ö semester. Det är väldigt lugnt men ändå tillräckligt nära för att komma till restauranger och barer utan en tuk-tuk (mototaxi). Huset ligger på en återvändsgränd väg (faktiskt i slutet av huvudvägen) där människor ta båtar till södra strand.

Huset är perfekt för människor som vill dyka, snorkla, få en solbränna på stranden eller fly-fisk. Alla dessa aktiviteter är tillgängliga från den privata stranden framför huset. Det är bara en kort 10 minuters promenad till stan (en cykel är ännu snabbare, kan du hyra dem för mindre än $ 5 per dag om du får dem varje vecka) men tillräckligt långt bort att du kan koppla av i lugn med en kall öl eller en Coco -loco (ta en kokosnöt, tom mjölken, ersätt med rom) utan att göra mycket av något. Detta är den karibiska av Hemingway, innan kryssningsfartyg och all inclusive resorts, är en verkliga livet corona kommersiella Lila Jawfish beach house och eftersom vi inte kan vara här hela året runt, ska du bo hos oss i stället.

Paradise

Amazing beach home and property. Everything is artistically done with care and love for the home and environment. Close enough to town without being in the hustle bustle. James and his parents instantly feel like your family. So grateful for being able to experience their peaceful, beautiful home.

Great house, location, and people

James (property owner) was very friendly and quick to respond to messages Angel (property manager) was incredibly helpful and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay The house had everything we needed for cooking, snorkeling, and just hanging out. The Blue Bayou neighborhood is far enough away from the busy parts of town to be pretty quiet but close enough to walk or bike to meals and the dive shop. Great snorkeling right off the beach!

Great location and view

The place was adorable and the view is amazing! Sunrise comes up right in front of the place. Not being skilled at scooter driving I rented a bicycle and it was quick to get to anything I needed and great places to eat ( Mango Tango a must). Snorkeling could easily be done 5 minutes down the road by the coral reef resort. The public beach is gorgeous and close by. Angel arranged a Tuk Tuk to bring me back and forth from the ferry with no difficulties. I will definitely book this place again when I get a chance to return to the beautiful island! Chris

Quick Little Getaway

What an adorable beach front bungalow! Far enough from the main town to be secluded and private, but close enough that you aren't wasting time driving! the palm tree hammocks just feet from the lapping waters edge were delightful! The outdoor shower was refreshing! The porch swing for morning coffee and evening tea was the best! Loved feeding the sand crabs watermelon and watching them enjoy snacks! It is a bit far to walk... we rented a scooter... so much fun, totally safe! One suggestion.... a tub for rinsing your feet at the stairs so as not to bring in the sand.. other than that it was pure rustic delight!

Perfect Spot

Our 2 week stay on the island started with Angel (Property Manager) meeting us at the ferry with a Tuk-Tuk to deliver us to the property. Angel was very responsive to any questions we had along with advice on things to do. The properties location is ideal! Far enough away from the hustle but close enough to walk into the city center. If you prefer you can catch a Tuk-Tuk right at the property or rent a bike, moped or golf cart. We preferred to walk. The snorkeling infront of the property and to the right is awesome! We would walk down to the Reef Bar and enter the reef there. Free as long as you buy a beer. The food there is very good also. Go to the little bar further down called Blue Bayou as it's full of characters. The property is on white sand and has WONDERFUL views. Especially the sunrises! Don't hesitate to rent this property as it is one of the best. Many locals who found out where we were staying would say "You have the best spot on the island." Thank you Angel for everything.

Great beach house with excellent snorkeling

My wife and I stayed at the Purple Parrot at the end of August, 2022, we greatly enjoyed out stay. James met us at the ferry (despite us not communicating which ferry we were taking, I thought there was only 1 daily but there are multiple trips), he showed us around town, demonstrated all the ins and outs of the rental property, and was very responsive to all of our questions. The house was a great 1 bedroom/studio house, with its own beach and great coral out front. The snorkeling right in front of the house was the best we got in Honduras. We gave the overall score of 4/5 due to road noise, it was very bright in the morning (bring eye masks!), and we got bit by many bugs (although these problems are not the fault of the property owner). Again, great stay and we would definitely return to this rental again!

House on the Beach

Angel met us at the dock and got us situated with a tuk tuk. He was a bit late to meet us at the house, but eventually came. It would be nice if they provided the wifi password ahead of time to help in these situations. The house itself was nice and clean. Unfortunately, the beach was full of driftwood and trash. This is a problem they have had for a while and they hired someone to try to clean up the beach. The house itself was in good shape, though the toilet lid was broken. The a/c & Internet worked well. The electricity and internet went out during a storm, but quickly came back. Overall, a nice place to stay on utila and the location was far enough from town to feel secluded but close enough to walk to many amenities including a nice beach.

Best Location in Utila

We had a great stay in Utila. Purple Jawfish is as described and the location is close enough to town to walk, utilize a tuk tuk, or rent a golf cart, but also far enough away to feel like you're semi secluded. The beach is beautiful. The house is very comfortable for two. My wife loved it. Highly recommend.

Cozy, convenient and carefree.

This was a well managed, wonderful experience thanks to owner James and manager Angel. James communicated very promptly and cordially. Angel was there at the ferry to take me by tuk tuk to this well equipped cabin on its own beach. Snorkeling was good and I appreciated having gear provided. I didn’t need to rent transportation as I enjoyed the short walks to town (10-15 minutes) and even closer bars and restaurants. A few things I appreciated that I haven’t noticed mentioned in other reviews: small reading selection including guide to reef life, excellent wifi, a well positioned hammock near the water’s edge which Angel gladly hung. He’s a friendly, helpful and unobtrusive asset of this charming cabin which has all you need and then some. Thank you James, I hope to return.

Beach front house, what else can you ask!

Just what I wanted and expected. Beautiful place with all commodities, just the perfect spot away enough from the town noise and close enough from where you want to be. From the insde front windows and Porch of the house you see, seven plus shades of ocean blue for you to admire, awesome ocean breeze, not to mention the coral reef in front of the house ready for you to dive and snorkel. James the host made our stay pleasant and made sure we had everything we needed from start to finish even picking us up at the airport, We felt like home in this beautiful island, We wanted more that even extended one more night and still was not enough. Unforgettable experience two thumbs up!! Five out of five stars.

Wow!

Can't say enough! 'permasmile' Mike (prop mgr) was awesome, attentive, informative, and just an all around nice guy. The house was cozy, clean and we'll stocked.....but the deck steals the show! Adirondack chairs and porch swing overlook the private Sandy Beach. Steps to the warm carribean...Slept like a baby and awoke to that beautiful view! Bring bug spray because sand fleas share the island, and unlike the other residents (friendly is an understatement) they will devour you. We are already planning or next visit, and plan to stay at the purple jawfish😃

Great location!

This rustic little cabin was like a home away from home. Had everything we needed, although more than two bath towels would be nice. Short trip to town and loved sitting out on the beach in the mornings and watching sun rise, waves crash, eagle rays feed. We did not find a bad meal anywhere we ate in Utila, but Mango Tango was pricey, so we only had dinner there once.

What a view!! Great location!

The house is in a great location with your own private beach. Sitting on the porch swing makes you feel like you’re in a corona beer commercial, what an awesome view!! The house is cute inside with upgrades including WIFI. Renting the scooter was a definite bonus. Only a short ride into town but far enough to have peace and quiet. Utila town has lots of great restaurants. James was excellent at communicating with us and he arranged his property manager, Angel, to meet us at the ferry dock and get us safely in a tuk tuk. Angel was very good with communication and even left us a phone to contact him if needed. James was very quick on refunding the deposit. We would definitely stay here again!

Tropical paradise!!!

If you are planning a trip to Utila you need to book the Purple Jawfish. It is the best place on the island to stay. The view of the water from the front porch swing is amazing. It looks just like the pictures. The house is clean and comfortable and is within walking distance of The Blue Bayou Beach Bar where we enjoyed great fish and shrimp tacos. Mike is the property manager and he will meet you at the ferry to give you all the information you need about the house and island. He will rent you a scooter as well as check on you daily. My husband and I have travelled a lot during our 34 years of marriage and this trip was at the top of the list.

Perfect location

The house was well appointed with everything you could need from housewares to a hammock. Instructions for everywhere and everyplace you could need or want to go. The house was a short walk into town but far enough from the hustle of the business area of Utila town. Rent a scooter to make getting into and out of town easy and fast (you can, and we did, rent the owner’s scooter). Mike the property manager met us at the airport and checked on us daily providing us with helpful tips and suggestions throughout the week. One such suggestion was to walk the town area before going there with a scooter so you know what is there and where everything is. The downtown area traffic moves fast and can be difficult to maneuver if you don’t know where you are headed. James, the owner (and Mike) were available at the drop of a line for any questions or issues that came up. Their response time was almost immediate. James provided a bevy of useful information and suggestions before heading to Utila and it was fun checking them off the list of things we did while there. Couldn’t have asked for better communication with an owner and his on site liaison. The hummingbirds are magical and friendly (while sitting on the magnificent porch swing) as are the crabs who live on the side of the house (though they would hide after grabbing the pieces of bread I gave them). The snorkeling right out front of the house was both refreshing and fun. While there is a public beach on the way into town (pretty close to the house) this property has its own. You will not be disappointed. There are bars and restaurants within walking distance in either direction. And within a short walk you can hop on a boat that takes you to Neptune’s for the day. Neptunes has some pretty incredible beaches, snorkeling and great food.

Gorgeous little beach house!

The Purple Jawfish was stunning! Very well maintained, spotlessly clean, and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed for our stay. James, the owner, was amazing as well. He was always happy to answer our questions leading up to the trip and during our stay. He even helped us put together a trip to Sambo Creek when we were staying in the mainland, which was one of the highlights of our trip! Utila is a fun place to be! The people are amazing. We never once felt unsafe and we slept very well. Snorkeling right off the beach in front of the house is beautiful. Then we took a short walk to Coral View and snorkeled to the drop off, which was a whole different level of amazingness! I highly recommend it! James will rent you his scooter and that is a great and oh so fun way to see the island. Make sure to take a trip to Bando Beach Bar - it will quickly become your favorite too. Great food, amazing staff, perfect place to meet some locals and get even more tips about the island. Thanks so much, James, for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We couldn't have asked for anything more. This place truly has it all.

Beautiful, excellent location and super clean!!

Purple Jawfish Beach house is truly an amazing place to rent In Utila. The location is what makes it so great! While it is out of town it is only a short walk or scooter ride in, you have your own private little beach area(rare) and view from the house is postcard perfect! The house comes completely equipped with anything and everything to make your stay comfortable. The screened windows were awesome to let the beautiful breeze come in and we never had to worry about mosquitoes or sand flies coming in. The house is impeccabley clean and has a very cozy warm feeling to it! We had the greatest pleasure of meeting the owner James’s parents who were staying across the road. We were met at the ferry and put into a tuk - tuk which took us to the house. Then shown around and given directions for restaurants and the grocery store. James’s delightful parents were very quick to respond to any of our needs and were very knowledgeable about the island. They went above and beyond to make us very welcome ! We miss LJ and Vinny already!! Thank you James for sharing your piece of heaven with us, we were there to just relax and reconnect. Purple Jawfish beach house did not disappoint , it was more than one could have hoped for!!! We will be back. Moe and Ilona:)

I little slice of heaven

The Purple Jawfish Beach House is a great property. One of the only properties on the Island that will give you your own private beach. We were able to feed eel, rays, crabs and hummingbirds right at the house. And we loved watching the sun rise everyday! James is really great with answering all of your questions concerning not only the house but the Island as well. He is also great with making sure that you are set up to get to the house. Mike is awesome once you get there too. He is very accommodating with everything. He even set up our taxi to the airport the morning we left. He checked in on us every day to make sure we didn't need anything. The minisplit is great to keep the house cool. We did notice that keeping the windows closed kept it cooler in the house at the time of our stay since there wasn't a huge breeze. The sand flies were pretty rough too since the wind wasn't picking up too often but is was okay. The snorkeling was great in front of the house. We even saw a ray and a baby nurse shark. I would stay here again!

Amazing!

Absolutely the most amazing place on the island! Solitude but still close enough to get whatever necessities needed. A little loud on the weekends with noise from The Venue, a close bar. Other than that it's a perfect spot. The pictures on-line are really what you get! Beach front 50 feet from the front porch, nice accommodations in the large open beach front bungalow. If it was for sale, we would purpose without question. James the owner responds within the hour, Mike the on site manager is always available and makes sure every detail goes off without a hitch. Awesomeness all the way around!

This house is by far the best deal on the island. It's in a superb location to see the sunrise and catch the much needed cool evening breeze! Mike is super helpful and James always answers if you need him. The beach is gorgeous and the house has everything you need. The neighborhood is out of town a little ways so much more private, as well. I highly recommend the purple house!! I'm sure we will be coming back.

Best vacation of my life, best place I've ever stayed (yes I've traveled a lot)

We'd never heard of Utila, I saw it on House Hunters and we just booked it. I looked online for places to stay for two and found Purple Jawfish. First of all, it is one of the few places online that the pics are EXACTLY what it is. It's clean, never saw so much as an ant!! The bed was comfortable and there wasn't one thing we needed that wasn't there. We of course bought some groceries. And we did snorkeling in four different places while there, but right in front of the house was by far the best. We also saw a sting ray right by our beach and several eels we fed. The air conditioner was great and there were several fans. Mike, the property manager was great as well, checking on us EVERY day, but if we weren't there he made sure we could always find him. He had so much great information on things to do and what to see, and left a map at our door first day. We had to fly out and mike made our reservations and ordered taxi ect....so we could relax. A couple weeks before we went, james(property owner) called us and gave us tons of information about the island. The house is out of town enough that we never heard music or anything, and yet could be in town in a few minutes. James also offered to rent us his scooter and it was at house ready for us. We asked if we could buy the house!! Not for sale, but we're planning a trip back in a few months and wouldn't consider renting anywhere else. I am certain it's the cleanest on the island, and the privacy is wonderful. If you are going for a romantic getaway this is the perfect place!!!!

Om värden

James Passantino är värd

Värdens profilbild
I am a 42 year-old middle school teacher from upstate NY living in NYC for the past 10 years. I love to travel but never had the opportunity to travel out of the country until l was 23. Since then I have traveled to over 40 countries (all on a pretty tight budget) and fell in love with Central America. So much so that I met my wife in Nicaragua. We actually began dating on Utila after traveling together from her hometown (she had never left either). We both learned to dive on the island and Susy even learned to swim there.

Varför värden valde detta boende

When I saw this little spot on the beach for sale years later we took a huge risk, emptied all our savings and my retirement account, took two loans out and never looked back. NYC where we live is way too expensive to own so we live in a small rented studio apartment in Brooklyn and chose to put our money into fixing the Purple Jawfish Beach House (purple is her favorite color and the jawfish is my favorite fish, they are not purple) until we can retire there. It may not be the biggest place but it has that "it" factor. We have put our blood, sweat, hearts and souls into this house and hope you can see that when you stay here.

Vad som gör detta boende unikt

This house is located in front of one of the most beautiful Coral Reefs you will ever see. There are also two lagoons on the other side of the sand road that you could kayak in and see mangroves and all the different animals that live there. The reef is full of amazing animals like turtles, eagle rays, squid, ocopus, hundres of species of colorful fish and eels (there are a family of small Chain link Morays in the rock jetty in front of the house). I've even seen dolphins and nurse sharks in the water from the deck and then gone out and snorkled with them. By the way, there are yellow headed jawfish in front of the house about 150 ft out and to the left. They are awesome but shy so you have to hover over them slowly to not scare them into their burrows. .
