House rental in Roatan, Bay Islands Honduras - Habitat of Stars ~ Miles of Secluded Beach - Property 217586

Villa Serena: “My, this is much nicer than I expected. The photos do not do it justice”, is what I hear most frequently from guests when they first enter Villa Serena. It is truly serene. People ask how far away are the other homes? When they arrive they say “you don’t know that they are there’. Off the master suite is a meadow with large nut trees; all around the other sides of villa are Hibiscus, Frangipani, Night Jasmine, Banana Trees, Ginger, Fichus, and Traveler Palms. The Balinese styling with the high vented ceilings; large, screened doors and louvered windows allow the Caribbean breezes to flow through the house keeping it cool and comfortable even in the summer. Fall asleep to the sounds of chirping geckos and wake to birds all the while breathing in fresh tropical air. Guests say that they feel very much at home and very relaxed and comfortable in our home. It is a Garden of Eden with a white sand beach where you can find serenity.

Palmetto Bay Plantation: Places like this are rare in today’s world! Most any bay like this would be filled with high density condos setting at water’s edge. Palmetto’s developers strove to preserve the natural beauty by creating a low density resort with unobtrusive structures that frame the Caribbean experience. There remain broad stands of the islands indigenous taller palms. Dining at the restaurant is unlike dining anywhere else on Roatan. It enhances the tropical breezes and stars. The lush garden paths with arched bridges invite discovery by those of all ages. Coral reef is just off shore with kayaks provided. There is a large covered dock and swimming platform. There are flats for bone and fly fishing and shelling beaches. The on sight PADI dive operator offers snorkeling trips to the wreck out from Crawfish Rock. By July of 07 the resort should have its own generator functional. Exact location may be seen via Google Earth satellite image on owners web site.
