Kid-friendly holiday rentals in José Santos Guardiola

Private, clean, stunningly beautiful, friendly hosts. It was the perfect place to relax after a busy few days on the west end.

Ryan’s place is peaceful, private and clean. It is on a part of the island that is beautiful and less traveled The road down to the water can be a bit of a challenge I would recommend a vehicle suitable like a jeep The kitchen is well equipped and has everything. Buy food and personal supplies before you get there. The property manager Kendra is fluent in English and extremely helpful.

The stay at Todd and Lori’s was something out of a DREAM! The upstairs balcony is stunning and always has a great breeze so you’re never too hot! The rooms were clean and spacious. Everything you need is there snorkel gear to kitchen utensils. It’s close to many things off the beaten path which makes it perfect so you don’t run into too many people! Delicious food is right around the corner too!

The Living Waters home is incredible. Walk in the front door and the ocean is right in front of you. Daysi met us at the airport, directed us to Eldon's so we could stock up (get everything you think you'll need, we didn't find other stores on the island with similar selections and its 1 hour from the house). We had Dulce, helped by her daughter, cook a number of meals for us. They were a delight and food was great. If you don't have a car you can get to a few places. Go to Cliffsides for dinner. Camp Bay Lodge is a few places down, everything we ate there was very good. Still I'd recommend getting a car so you can explore the entire island, for activities and local restaurants. A lot of people love the east end of the island because it's remote, but do prepare for some very rough dirt roads. Going even 5 miles on the east end of the island might take 30+ minutes. Everyone uses "whatapp" to communicate, so get it before you go. We loved Roatan, super friendly people.

Perfect stay from start to finish!! The Casita is beautifully decorated and so comfortable, has everything you need! The community is so peaceful, all we heard were the sounds of nature as we enjoyed the pool! Only problem we had...we had to go home! :( Thank you again Sean & D'Anna for sharing your paradise with us!! We can't wait to come back!!

Beautiful location and view. Good amenities. We truly enjoyed our stay. We even had a visit from some local dogs that wanted to make friends and play. Close to a few restaurants perfect location for the east side.

The beach was pristine, fly fishing in your front yard! The host was very attentive to whatever request you had! The kayaks were top notch!

The home is even more stunning in person than in the photos. The master bedroom is spacious and gorgeous, and the kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need. The downstairs bedrooms are a bit darker, but our kids didn’t mind at all—they absolutely loved their space. One of the highlights of our trip was being able to snorkel right off the front of the house, which was an amazing experience. We also booked a snorkeling trip with Joe, who picked us up right from the house by boat and took us to swim with nurse sharks—an unforgettable adventure! The road leading to the house is unpaved, but we had no trouble getting there in a small SUV—just take it slow. The airport is about 30 minutes away, and Eldon’s grocery store is a convenient 15-minute drive. Dave, the property manager, was always nearby and super helpful whenever we needed anything.

I booked Gabriel and Nildas place because I was interested in Camp Bays kitesurfing classes. I am so happy that I ended up staying with them! From thew moment I arrived until the day I left they were communicative helpful and treated me like a close friend. Throughout the week Nilda and Gabriel gave me information about the local history on the island which was awesome (Im a history nerd)! Their dog had such an amazing personality and I saw all three of them at least once a day. They have made an incredible effort to give back to the land and their community on the East side of the island! I am very fortunate to be able to stay with them and plan to return soon! Thanks for the great trip! You all made it one for the books!

Caribe bight is a great area of the island. Serene, quiet (although there was a house being constructed in the area 😁) and very close to the water. Our host was outstanding in providing access to the property, as we arrived a few hours earlier from the airport. The property was just as described and is perfect if you plan on spending your days enjoying outside and relaxing in the evening on the huge porch while grilling your meal! We would definitely stay here again!

Our stay at Windwood Serenity at Caribe Bight was a great experience. Such a beautiful setting with lots of great views and breezes! Being able to snorkel and kayak right from the dock was fantastic. Nancy and Phil were the best hosts, very responsive and accommodating to requests. Very eager to share their knowledge of the local restaurants, dive shops and other things on the island. Truly nice people! :) Being on the mid-east side of the island, the roads are rather rough so if your driving be ready for a few bumps. And make sure you have at least a mid-size SUV or even better a 4WD if your continuing even further east to Camp Bay Beach. Overall a wonderful trip and stay at Windwood and would absolutely stay there again. Looking forward to our next visit already!

This condo met my family's needs during our diving trip. The owner helped me connect with her property manager, and she in turn coordinated transportation for us (a) from the airport to the condo with an intermediate stop for groceries and (b) from the condo back to the airport at the end of our trip. The owner was flexible about our check-in time, and the property manager met us upon arrival, ensuring that we had access to the condo and were familiar with all of its resources before she departed. The upstairs neighbors sprang into action when we had a WiFi problem, and they helped ensure that we were able to access an alternate WiFi source. We only used the AC in the two bedrooms at night, and we ended up paying an extra $25 in electricity charges for our 5-night stay in early April. There's ample cross-ventilation during the daytime when the doors are open. The condo's location makes for a safe and peaceful environment that's a short walk to restaurants and dive centers.

We had a great week at this condo! Vanessa was extremely responsive to all questions. She arranged our pick up at the airport which was very helpful. The condo was spacious for our family of four and the pool was a great amenity. We loved taking a water taxi to the Mayan Princess in West Bay to enjoy the beach and pool. Snorkeling was amazing right off the beach! The condo was a short walk to all of the great restaurants in West End. There are a lot of steps to get up to the condo so keep that in mind if you have mobility issues. Like some others said, the linens & decor could use a refresh but overall we had a great stay and would recommend.

We just spent 9 blissful nights at Ada’s amazing place. The location is exactly where you want to be in West End and the snorkeling just a few steps from our room was truly unbelievable. Just make sure to wear a buoy (she provides one too) so you don’t get run over by a water taxi. Ada is a super responsive host and gets back to any questions super quickly. She even arranged pick up from the airport for us! Her property manager Angel, is super sweet and helpful. They provide 5 gallon jugs of purified water which is seriously amazing. We went thru one every 2-3 days during our stay. The towels are fresh and fluffy and they even do your personal laundry for free! The only regret you will have staying with Ada is that you have to eventually leave. We hope to stay with them again very soon. Seriously. It’s a perfect vacation and steps from Roatan Divers who I also highly recommend!

Great place. Mellisa recommendations were awesome! We had a great time and would love to go back someday. Jacksons dive shop is a 1 minute walk up the road. They were fantastic. Mellisa also recommended a driver, Marco. He was the best and we never needed a rental car.

Bills place is beautiful and so well equipped. We had amazing coffee, every spice and kitchen utensil, towels. Cold cups- cooler- way more than expected. The views were incredible, great restaurants within walking distance- definitely no car needed. We will definitely be back- nice pool and so responsive- really wonderful experience!

Perfect location, gated community, great host and great comfortable place. We’ll be back for sure

Staying at Wanda’s place was a great experience. The 2 bed, 2 bath condo was spacious, clean, and comfortable with plenty of room to relax. We especially loved having a full kitchen to cook breakfast and prep snacks throughout the day. The view overlooking the pool was a bonus and made mornings even more peaceful. Would definitely stay here again!

Patti’s Paradise was wonderful! From the moment we checked in we felt right at home. We loved the location, tucked in among the trees, peaceful and very private. We were visited by birds (and lizards) of many different species. We spent hours relaxing and dining in the screened in porch, and we didn’t see many biting insects, even on the beach! It is a bit remote, we would recommend a car rental. We snorkelled off the dock every day! There were many different species of fish and the coral is healthy and colourful as well. The kitchen was supplied with everything we needed to cook and the house was clean and comfortable. It was great for our family of four to stretch out and have family time while still having our own spaces for privacy. The host was responsive and very helpful with any questions we had, and the self check-in and other instructions were clear and easy to follow. We are already planning our return!
