Overall, the staff was very pleasant and courteous. I had an enjoyable experience. The property is gorgeous. However, upon arriving, the evening supervisor, named Patricia, was very sarcastic, indifferent, and rude. She was unwilling to make accommodations for my group, which consisted of my cousin, my one-year old son, and me. She blamed Expedia for the miscommunication and did not try to fix the problem. When looking for a resort in Roatan, I specifically looked for a family-friendly resort. We all had to sleep uncomfortably in a matrimonial full sized bed, with no microwave to warm bottles for my baby. The next day, a supervisor named Britney was more concerned and sent us a warmer to warm bottles. I had a very bad first impression after traveling more than 8 hours with my family to reach the resort, but I had fun and the overall staff was very nice.

Beautiful beach and amazing staff, but this is not a 4-star resort as advertised. Minimum amenities available and the all inclusive option is not all inclusive. There are restrictions on alcohol brands and certain food/restaurants have extra charges. We were denied access to food at the beach club daily as it was only open to people from cruise ships there for the day. Overall I would say this is a 2.5 star resort based on my extensive experience traveling the Caribbean. Staff was great though!!

After paying the most expensive package I was so disappointed that in three days I couldn’t eat fish in the restaurants because they ran out of it ! Unbelievable specially since Roatan is an island , entertainment there also is really bad , the hotels next to it were always doing activities and had music for their guest . Too boring for my taste

I liked the variety of food, many of the waiters very attending, the beaches are beautiful, they have several activities that are good; the pool was beautiful. I didn't like that they do not control the flies, it was disgusting how many flies were over there; knowing that there is several ways to control these bugs that carries germs, bacteria, viruses; they should worry about controlling them. Also, for the amount that we paid; they should have better furnished rooms with more updated and new appliances; there was dust all over the fans and closet doors; the shower faucets were rotten, also the coffee maker was rotten, and many other things were not exactly at the height of the prices they are asking

The place is beautifully maintained and decorated. Its staff was amazing! Our room could have been better especially when you consider the price that we paid. The food was pretty darn delicious except for the dinner. There were lots of options or selections on their menu for all three meals. Breakfast and lunch were always pretty delicious but there was always something off with dinner, the meat was either undercooked or overcooked and the seafood (Fish and lobster) was almost always overcooked. Their Ceviche and Seafood soup (Conch soup or sopa de Caracol) was pretty amazing though! With that said, my family and I had a blast and we sure to return soon! Thank you, Yari, Marina, William (bartenders), Wilmer (Towels and Water Sports Attendant), Yen, Patricia (Front Desk), and Charlie, Heliberto, Marvin, Yohanna, and Gladys (Servers) for your attention during our stay.

This property is at least 25 years old and it’s age shows. The cleaning staff do a fabulous job. We were originally booked in the Las Sirenas rooms. Those rooms are incredibly small with no place to even put your luggage. We “upgraded” to a larger condo type unit, but paid $600 for it. This resort is not your typical all-inclusive. There are three actual restaurants plus a buffet. The all-inclusive only allows you to eat breakfast and lunch at the buffet, not at any of the restaurants. Dinner can be had at the restaurants only if you get up at 7am each morning to make a reservation. Crazy, because most times we did make reservations there were only a few tables that had people at them. Also, breakfast and lunch are only available for a two hour window. And yes, alcoholic drinks are included, but most times we needed to go fetch our own, especially if you are on the beach.

The property and the staff were absolutely amazing! My only complaint is that if you are in the villas close to the checkin desk or Balam, you can hear EVERYTHING! The resort directly behind our unit played loud bass heavy music from 8:30-11:45 pm every single night, so it was hard to get a good night sleep. If kids or groups of adults were in the pool in the front of our unit, it sounded like they were inside our unit with us. I would definitely stay here again, but we would request to be in a completely different area of the property.

Abundance of beach chairs and umbrellas for shade. Excellent bartenders and above average tequila brands. Excellent and ALWAYS VISIBLE security officers at each and bar area Food was really good (above average for an all inclusive out of the 20 different Caribbean resorts I have stayed at. World class snorkeling you can walk out to from the beach and enjoy for free if you brought your own gear. Rooms WERE SPOTLESS!! My poolside room had a hose spout to wash off sand and gear. DirecTV with almost every American channel and movie channels too. I watched Sun, Mon, and Thurs night NFL games during my 11 day stay. Not a lot of night time activities (aside from karaoke) probably because it is an early morning dive resort Resort to the right (if your facing the beach) plays loud music until 11-11:15 each night which you will hear if you are in poolside room on that side of the pool Not many small crying children during my stay (maybe because it's an adult oriented dive resort) Beach vendors will walk by selling you just have to politely say no thank you (DONT Say "maybe later") and they will leave you alone. A group of 6 heavily armed police/military walk the beach to keep the area safe, multiple times a day

Overall, great resort for the price! We enjoyed our stay. Staff was great! Property could use some updates, but they appear to be in process. Beachfront upstairs rooms are significantly smaller than the downstairs rooms, and it is not clearly stated that way and you are charged the same price. They market it as 4 stars and it may be 4 stars for Honduran standards, but it is 3 to 3.5 stars in US standards

My first bad review and only review ive ever done. Probably the worst buffet breakfast and dinner Ive seen in all my travels. Flies everywhere and took one look and walked out. Absolutely horrible. Service at the bar was fair, and one waiter was really good. Forgot his name. Pool was nice and the lounge chairs were great as well as the pool facilities. The front desk manager was rude and obnoxious tried to rip me off and charged me $65 for 35 min late to checkout while i waited for the bell captain. . Now this
