Infinity Bay Spa and Beach Resort: 5 1/2

Having traveled through out the Caribbean, never returning o the same location twice, this time we decided to return to IB for a second consecutive year, because of the excellent standards of this resort. This stay did not disappoint. Room, spacious & clean. Check in/out, easy. Staff from the ones you met everyday, bar, restaurant, maids, management all very engaging, and would do the necessary to address any issues...we had none. Location, on the beach is perfect. Food, very good. Later [... read more] (night)entertainment down the beach, or West End.

Henry Morgan Resort: Great getaway!

We went here as part of a wedding party and had a great time. Thank you to every member of the staff, you all made our trip to Roatan very memorable. We had a great week away from the hustle and bustle of home.

Mayan Princess Beach Resort: Mayan Princess Beach Resort

The grounds of the hotel was nice and well located. Staff was friendly. However, 3 out of 4 of us got sick (tourista). We ended up asking around and others at the resort also got sick. There seems to be an issue with either food handling or maybe the water. Perhaps a Sunwing or maybe the hotel is at fault, but arriving at the hotel, we were not given the room that was expected. When booking, the room that was expected was a condo/villa, but when we arrived, we were given a simple room. The ro [... read more]om was clean, but just not what we expected. We talked to the Sunwing rep at the resort, who then spoke to the hotel staff. They printed an e-mail showing that they communicated the change to someone... possibly Sunwing. Sunwing didn't inform us of the change in advance. Bad communication between the hotel and Sunwing which resulted in being dissapointed. We will be following up with Amanda to place our complaint. I do not recommend this hotel simply because lots of people got sick. If the hotel changes their food handling practices, maybe I would reconsider recommending the hotel.

Media Luna Resort: Great Vacation

I booked our trip after reading all the reviews so kind of knew what we were getting into. First of all ROATAN, WOW! An absolutely amazing island, such friendly people and YES, the snorkeling was beyond incredible. The ride to Media Luna from the airport is about 40 minutes and it is one 2 lane hwy all across the island so there is no way I would drive there myself, lots of close passing was kind of scary. The road to Media Luna off the main hwy is mostly gravel road with lots of bumps until you [... read more] reach the paved part closer to the resort. The resort and views from it are breathtaking. Staff greeted us and were genuinely excited we were there, you can tell they enjoy their jobs. Cabanas are okay, our toilet leaked the whole time and in the eve the ants came in to sleep on the wall above our tv, but we were fine with that. Bed was comfy for me, not so much for hubby, so it will depend how firm you like it. It was the hammock on the private balcony that won me over, many a beautiful breezy night was spent on that hammock! We had paid to upgrade to an ocean view and the first room they took us to(106) faced the ocean but the hedges blocked any view of any water so if you pay the extra for ocean view, it depends where they put you on whether it is worth it. Once I brought my lack of view to the front desk she quickly showed me another room(132) this was was beside and overlooking the pool but straight out was the beautiful ocean so it was much better, it was also closest to the main building and food area so if you don't like alot of walking(all on cobblestone uneven paths that can be hazardous to ankles) this was a great area and we quickly settled in. We had the luck of the gods on our side or something but the weather was incredible, hot, not too humid and almost always a nice breeze. We woke up early the next day to rain and I was like oh no, but went back to bed for an hour and when I got up you couldn't even tell it had rained! We were there 2 weeks(one week really isn't long enough, once you allow your stomach a day or 2 to accept it's new surroundings, plus all the sightseeing) and the next time it rained was when we were almost at the airport to leave(I will allow it). The rain did delay our flight by 2 hours but since that was the worst that happened to us we couldn't complain. Snorkelling off the main beach is gorgeous, but once you do it off the dive dock, it is hard to go back. The reefs around and out from the dive dock were unbelievable, absolutely spectacular, the ocean life was brilliant and about 500 meters straight out from the dock there was an octopus "garden" where I saw 3 different octopi sleeping under the rocks in different spots. The one guy was there everytime I went but he only really came right out from his cave once. Still amazing! A few lion fish, needle fish, barracuda, and of course all the regular bright fish kept me out snorkeling for hours at a time every day. Make sure you have good waterproof sunscreen and your own snorkel equipment(15$ a day to rent otherwise) I actually bought a tribord mask that was brilliant and allowed me to keep my head down for hours without having to come up and adjust it as my husband did, so I definitely recommend the investment if you do alot of snorkeling. When we weren't snorkeling, we hired Victor Boddens company to do the private tours of the island and Lany our guide took us out all over the island to anything and everything we wanted to see on 3 different days. The Iguana sanctuary surprised me as being the thing I didn't think I wanted but was the best, We adored Victors Monkeys(went back the second day as well) and loved that Lany knew the tricks to help us save money(it really is VERY expensive down there) and avoid the crowds(He knew to take us shopping at the cruise dock on a day there was only one ship, and took us to a less crazy area of West Bay to swim). He knows the island and was invaluable to us. Plus Victors pricing is way better than anything the hotel offers and it was just us so we didn't have to follow a groups schedule, which made it easy to go back when I forgot my hat in one of the shops(whoops). We also had Lany take us to the grocery store because, like most of the reviews said(so we thought we knew what we were getting into) the food at Media Luna is AWFUL! We are pretty easy going but I honestly barely ate at the resort at all. Some of the breakfasts were good but if you slept in you missed it and without writing an essay on the food all you need to know is YUCK! So we grabbed some small food things to have on hand and kept our little fridge stocked the whole time. I don't drink but my husband more than made up for that, unfortunately the beer was not great, they had 3 brands they alternated between and only 2 were drinkable so you crossed your fingers that was what they were serving. Alcoholic drinks are 75% cheap alcohol and 25% filler(no real juices at the resort so orange juice was tang etc). We did buy some inexpensive rum at the store that he was able to mix with cola and actually drink. I also did the dolphin excursion at Anthonys Key(AMAZING, but research this because if you book through a company as I did, they inflate everything but if I had just paid to do it on one of our trips with Lany I probably would have saved ALOT!) We were able to get decent meals while on our excursions and we got a group of 6 of us together to go to Gio's one night(excellent seafood, great view) it was 10$ per person to get a ride there and back in the group instead of the 20$ each. We got take out at Temporary Cal's one day but the view there would have been worth the trip to eat in the restaurant(really out on the balcony so make sure it isn't raining if you go). In conclusion, here are my suggestions for you. -Go to Roatan(such a beautiful place) -If you can take something to help your stomach before you get there do it! -Book excursions through Victor Boddens web site(Lany was awesome) -Bring or buy groceries to keep you full if you don't want to live on rice beans and other very bland, either over or under cooked food -Get a good snorkel mask(Tribord was awesome) -Bring lots of water proof sunscreen -If you want to bring treats for the local kids, bring marbles! Those were the most popular of all the treats I brought and Lany took us to an area where the kids really appreciated the treats since you are either rich or poor if you live there(no in between) -Bring your own water bottle to keep filled(the 2 they give you are tiny) and drink lots of water or you dehydrate fast! -Go for 2 weeks not 1, definitely not enough time. I will hope for your weather to be as great as ours was and if you see Jake my octopus, say hi for me!

Media Luna Resort: NICE RESORT

Resort is located in a very nice and interesting place.Cabanas (houses) are a nice attraction. Escape from the big resorts. Beach is small but very very attractive, beautiful shore,wonderful water.Diving and snorkeling - a paradise.Place where you can relax.Day, evening entertainment provided - everyone will find his style.Service very nice and helpful.Rooms are well maintained and clean though modest. Summarize resort is small unassuming but has its charm.

Media Luna Resort: Great resort

Grounds great, staff perfect, rooms great,very clean resort, bar very much in need of improvement . Table wine not drinkable , such poor quality. Be prepared to buy your table wine at wine shop in hotel. This hotel could be a five star hotel, but is a three in my opinion .

Henry Morgan Resort: awsome resort

The resort is simple no bells and whistles but clean rooms good service happy helpful staff good food great entertainment and a big thanks to the dive shop for bringing us simple snorkelers out with the dive group for epic adventures once is never enough thanks for making this a vacation to rember

Henry Morgan Resort: great time

This is the second time in two years for us to visit Henry Morgan resort and again we had a great time.We stayed in one of the Villas at the rear of the property. They are newer .The staff are very friendly and eager to please.Roatan seems to be gaining in popularity with the cruise lines,which makes for a very busy beach compared to last year. The owners are putting money into the property as evidenced by the new beach front rooms The snorkelling is fantastic for both novice and experienced.We  [... read more]can only imagine what the diving is like This resort is a little tired but very clean with more than adequate facilities.the beach is fantastic and cleaned daily making for a very safe swimming environment for all ages.

Henry Morgan Resort: Christmas vacation

This was a rustic and small resort located on a stunning beach . If you are looking for a no frills , quiet resort then this will be a good choice . Hotel does need a facelift . Food was decent . Location is great .

Media Luna Resort: Disappointed

Excellent staff and service. Resort need some works and repairs.Worst beach we been too.Rooms have issues with insect and bugs.Road to resort need serious repairs.Buffet is always cold and also got very sick prior to our departure.

Henry Morgan Resort: Just.....ok

Rooms were clean, grounds were not so inviting, dark common area beyond reception, no bar area outside, only inside where dark and cloomy. Outside snack bar basic, not overly inviting. Pool was cloudy. Wood decking extremely slippery especially for a tropical area. Construction all week from early in day into the night. Local beggers on beach were relentless....far too many and a constant in your face. If you wanted coffee in morning before 7 you had to pay for it, no coffee pot in rooms. Had to [... read more] ask multiple times for items at front desk. Im not a fussy or demanding person at all.

Henry Morgan Resort: great beaches, friendly staff at a somewhat tired resort

great beaches, friendly staff at a somewhat tired resort WE were at the HM between 12th and 19th of December and have mixed feelings about the experience. WE had difficulty exchanging CDN money - not available at all except 50% exchange for US dollars! WE could not get small bills for our US dollars and Honduran Limparas were difficult to change into small bills. The rooms were very clean, the food was good in general, the staff for the most part were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable  [... read more]and dedicated . The pool was a great size for doing our exercises, the decking around the pool and towards the beach was large and shaded from the sun. Lots of beach chairs. Took two trips which were both good and if one likes diving or snorkeling this is the place to be. The resort buildings are a bit on the tired size but repairs were ongoing. thanks

Henry Morgan Resort: Great ocean access with many challenges

This hotel is dated and a bit tired - all of which would be fine if they had proper railings on stairs and in pool area. Guests are provided on arrival with a 500ml bottle of water which needs constant refilling in the lobby where there was always one of the jugs which was empty - this is a burden as room water is not drinkable and it is hot. The front desk staff were very surly around providing money conversion or any change. After many conversations they finally agreed through the manager t [... read more]o provide change for our group only. Hard to tip in these circumstances which seems counter productive. The grounds were sprayed twice a day which was needed as one was bitten often but this was also a concern re nature of spray!!! The ocean and sand are great as is the food (meals and beach bar),wine bar (extra to pay for decent wine and special coffees) and staff working in all of the above! We went on a day trip where staff were very informative and welcoming and got a discount on the glass bottom boat as well - both experiences are recommended.

Henry Morgan Resort: Value for the money

Henry Morgan resort is rather rustic but has an amazing beach. Staff is friendly. Food is well prepared with a nice but not overwhelming variety. Rooms are clean but not comfortable being poorly lit and uncomfortable chairs. Lobby is very dim and it is difficult to see in the evening. Nice winery bar with good wines and coffe for reasonable extra charge. Good value if well priced.

Media Luna Resort: Awesome diving, Good resort

Quiet relaxing resort. Great staff. Food was okay. Bar could have used a wider variety of alcohol. Special thanks to Zaira Teruel for doing her part to make sure our vacation was a good one. Also a special thanks to Juan Cartos,,,, best guy working in the restaurant by far... The on site dive shop was great. Junior and Ernesto made sure everyone enjoyed every dive,,,,

Media Luna Resort: Beautiful!

Only stayed for one week but wished it was two! Beautiful resort- the rooms that our set up cottage style are absolutely amazing very big and spacious. It was nice having the option of 3 different pools plenty of chairs and seating. The beach nice although quite rocky but it was a very nice view to look at. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and welcoming. Couldn't have asked for a better vacation it was simply amazing. Can't wait to go back again!

Henry Morgan Resort: Henry Morgan Resort

Fantastic Time Location,location,location ,what a place , with a great vibe. And great people all around. We spent two weeks there and we were still sad to leave. Everyone that we talked to while there also loved the place. Some days(rainy season) we just ate and hung out swinging in the hammocks (so relaxing).Other days , just hop in a water taxi and check out West end or a beautiful walk down the beach and snorkel till your hearts content. The food was good , the rooms were clean and the peo [... read more]ple I found very trustworthy. My only negative review would be the bathrooms. They really need to bring them up to date.

Henry Morgan Resort: great time despite weather

This was our third time in Roatan and our second time at Henry Morgan. The staff is great, very friendly, and super accommodating. They are constantly cleaning. The hotel is basic and a little rustic, as are most in the area. The food was great with a good selection. We took the daily walking tours, since the sea was a little rough, and found them to be informative and fun. We plan on returning again.
