We loved our stay at The Coconut Cottage. Views were spectacular, weather was great and the cottage had a comfortable feel. Took the kayaks out multiple times and snorkeled out by the floating raft. Enjoyed walking for breakfast to Cafe 314 and Samona's Kitchen. Short drive to Ramirez grocery store and West End. My only small notes were that the shower head was in need of a deep clean as it had black gunk all over it. To our knowledge the pool/yard maintenance was not there all week as i noted a sand pile on the bottom of the pool that was present our whole stay. The lower ac unit had a small exterior vibration. None of these would prevent us from booking again. Highly recommended property.

2nd time staying here - perfect - few times a day I go out to the reef with the kayak which I tow behind me. There are always several dive boats right out front showing that this is the place to be. I love the privacy and quiet yet still with close access to West End and West Bay. The cooling pool is a plus - I wouldn’t stay anywhere else

Perfect getaway

We enjoyed our stay at Coconut Cottage away from the resort crowds. Located in a quiet neighborhood with a beautiful beach for a walk. We enjoyed the pool. We also had a car so we could travel around the island as we like to get out and see other areas getting to know the people, food and culture of Roatan. We highly recommend this property for an pleasant time in Roatan.

Little piece of paradise

Our stay was a well needed relaxing vacation. Beach is steps away from the back gate and we could walk 1.8 miles round trip towards the East. We were able kayak to the reef and snorkel when ever we wanted. We definitely recommend for a stay.

We loved this beach front house. The pool was the best feature! The ocean entry isn't very nice in this area so the pool was needed. We also used the kyaks daily.This house is in a neighborhhood and it is loud. Lots of traffic both on the road and on the beach, a barking dog from noon until 9:00 pm and someone has a parrot that yells mom, mom, mom all day long.The bed is very hard. Our hips were sore every morning. If you want to cook it will be difficult. there are like 3 pans and they are a cheap as they come and very warped so they don't sit flat on the stove top. The other issue is the couch. It is so worn out you can feel the cords in the cushions. There isn't a soft place to sit.We were there for a week and we really did enjoy the place but just a couple changes could really improve it.The big bonus was that we had 2 dogs come and they were so sweet. They hung around all week. We did feed and water them and gave kind words & pets.Not sure if we would stay again..

Amazing Home!

This property is outstanding. It is very clean, very comfortable and at least as good as advertised, if not better. The view is amazing and being right on the beach is incredible. West End is a short taxi ride away and there is a wonderful cafe in easy walking distance and most of the walk is along the beach! We stayed here for the first night of our vacation and took the ferry to Utila the next day, but when we come back to Roatan for future trips, we will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful relaxing week!

We loved our time here! Sandy bay is the best. We very much dislike the crowds of west bay/end. Sandy bay is so calm and peaceful and you feel like you are integrating among the locals. The house was beautiful and perfect for us. We loved the pool, kayaks and sunsets on the beach! We drank coffee on the porch every morning and absolutely loved the greenery and privacy. The house was just perfect for us. We walked over to Sandy bay divers and had several great dives. I am already day dreaming about returning to this sweet little slice of paradise!

Property is beautiful, house and pool are great. One downside is a kids marching band practiced on the beach aways down every weekday from 12-5. The same spng too. Kind of annoying. Not sure if there's a school or random practice. Not at all the homeowners fault. Just fyi.

Great stay in Roatan

The cottage was great. Off the beaten path location, nice and quiet. Right on beach, beautiful reef a couple hundred yards offshore. We really enjoyed the pool and the kayaks. Snorkeling was perfect, clear warm water, saw squid, barracuda, puffers, and beautiful shallow reefs. Great scuba operations nearby as well. The location made it easy to drive to both west and east sides of island. Shopping and restaurants not far away. This choice worked really well for us.

Lovely spot

House is very nice with beautiful views and sunsets. Pool is key as it’s not a great swimming beach but the snorkeling off the reef in the distance is nice. We had a few issues with the house the first few days— no fault of the owner whose local team dropped the ball. Once settled in we had a lovely time

Quaint Beach Cottage

We loved our stay at Coconut Cottage and would absolutely stay here again! The location is very quiet (minus some temporary road construction), lots of docks to snorkel off of and a reef that is booming with life, kayaks and pool were great amenities, and the house itself was perfect for a couple. Not too big but plenty of room to cook and relax in. Washer/dryer were really nice too. Most restaurants we went to were in the West End, about a 10 minute drive away, but we were looking for something off-the-beaten path so it worked very well for us. Thank you for the amazing stay!

Short Stay

We were only there for a few days. This is a great location if you want to be away from the business of west end. I caught a few small fish from the beach. The neighborhood does have many stray dogs and one that was chained up directly across the road. For dog lovers, it can be a little heartbreaking. The VRBO itself is immaculate and we had a great day just walking the beach and laying by the pool

Beautiful Property

The property was just as described. Beautiful beach cottage with very nice amenities. The interior and exterior were very well kept and maintained. The Caribbean Sea was steps away and the water was crystal clear. Was fun taking the on-site kayaks out. Having the pool to take a dip in was a bonus. The communication with the property manager was excellent. She was great to work with and always available to answer questions. If wanting to venture out for a meal or excursion, a rental vehicle or taxi will be required. We were put in contact with a taxi driver who was available to take us where we needed to go during our stay.
