The home was fantastic it was exactly as described. We loved how we didnât need to rent a car and can get boat taxi anytime from the doc behind the home.We did lots of amazing activities while there we dove with west end divers we did the Gumbalimba park and since it was not peak season they spent so much time letting us do everything with the animals and zip lineThis park is walking distance We had some absolutely amazing dinners in a treat top restaurant and Luna moonsWe also had time to spend day at little French key.Our only problem we encountered was the hot water heater went out and had all cold showers last couple days as it could not be fixed before we left.We also used the personal chef Dixlee she was fantastic Recommendation use water shoes that are at the house at the beach area
We had a wonderful time at Lazy A. The house is very well stocked with everything you might need. We LOVED the location -walking distance on the beach to west end and west bay. Great snorkel right in front of the house. Loved having the pool to jump in after dives. highly recommend Clearwater Divers just 2 minuted down the beach. May and Larry (guest hosts) very responsive-even jumped our rental car battery for us. Owner also very responsive to inquiries. Would definitely stay there again!
This property is located on a quiet beach (Orchid/Turtle beach). Yet it is walking distance to both West End & West Bay if inclined. A dock is directly in front of the property & Big John was our âgo toâ water taxi & our shuttle driver was Rigo- both recommended by our host! The kitchen had everything youâll need to cook at home or you can take a water taxi or walk to a plethora of restaurants! The sunsets are amazing & we loved the pool & beach! Host was super easy to communicate with and Mary greeted us and was a great resource while during our stay! We highly recommend this home!
This property is perfectly set between West Bay and West End. The hosts are incredible and the house is spacious for 6 adults with all you could ask for on the beach. We will be back!!!
Lazy A is a great house! Very comfortable with amazing decks to gather as a family. The communication from both Sarah and Mary was great. Itâs walkable to West Bay but a water taxi to West End is needed if you have kids or older adults in your family. Rigo the taxi and tour host is also fantastic!
We just got back late last night, and as much as we love home, we are more than missing this beautiful place. I cannot thank you enough for allowing us to stay in your place, there is not 1 thing about trip we would change. Thank you a million times Sarah and MaryâŠyou both went above and beyond.
We had a fantastic week. Sarah was very responsive to all our questions and set-up transportation from the airport (including a stop at the supermarket).
Mary was wonderful at check in and helped arrange water taxis with Big John and on island activities.
The water taxi is convenient with Big John. He took us for a half-day snorkeling which was great. We did the dolphin encounter and drop sea fishing.
Easy walk to West Bay and restoring the way. Itâs a great, quiet and safe location.
This is a beautiful beachfront home with excellent hosts, a gardener who brings you fruit if you ask, and snorkeling in your front yard. All amenities that you would need, with great design and ability to grill on a screened in porch. We were glad we chose to NOT rent a car given available water and land taxis and âinterestingâ Roatan driving rules/limited signage. If you want a more secluded place without the crowds/touristy feel of west bay, this could be exactly what youâre looking for. Easy water taxi to west end where we enjoyed many inexpensive local restaurants. Consider going to Sandy Buns early in your trip to buy a loaf of homemade bread for your stay, and cinnamon buns for the next morning. Tijuana Tacos=awesome. Local tours, Clearwater adventures, tons of stuff to do. Enjoy!!
Not only is Roatan the best kept secret, this house was amazing! This was our second year in a row to come to the island and stay in the Orchid neighborhood. The house sits right on the beach and the views were breathtaking at dawn and sunset! The house was clean and the beds were comfy. Kitchen has all of the tools you need. Walking distance to several restaurants or a quick water taxi to West Bay and West End. ClearWater Diving was a couple doors down on the beach. We love diving with them. Their guide-to-diver ratios are so small that it is practically a private dive. Sarah and Mary were responsive to anything we needed and will set up airport transportation stress-free. Ask Sarah for Dixie's number. She is a private (and affordable) chef that will come cook island cuisine at the house. Her food was amazing and we have used her twice now. Her key lime pie is a MUST! Tip her good :) We are already planning our next visit to the Lazy-A Beach house!! Thanks Sarah!!
We had a great time. The property is beautiful.
Sarah is an amazing host and Mary the manager is great. The house had everything we needed.
Sarah and Mary were so helpful with any questions we had. Looking forward to comeing back.
Well, with so many high ratings already, itâs hard to top some of the other reviews about this property. We enjoyed every moment of our trip and this property didnât disappoint.
We are avid snorkelers. Weâve been to most of the Caribbean islands focused on some of the best snorkeling sites we could find. Roatan was one of our last remaining stops that we had high expectations for the water experience. During our stay, we enjoyed the snorkeling directly out from the house, we also took advantage of being next door to Clearwater Diving, and did several tag-alongs and excursions. The coral was in fantastic shape and we had some amazing adventures. Donât miss out on the night snorkels, the bioluminescence was wild!
We also had the opportunity to meet Sarah and it was a pleasure. She was very helpful and accommodating (as well as Mary the house manager!). They hooked us up with Big John for our taxi rides, and we even spent a day with him and his boys on an excursion. He is the best!
The house is all youâd hope for. It was comfortable, relaxing and perfectly located. No need to continue to search, if itâs available, book it! You wonât be disappointed and the views are amazing. The beds are comfy and the kitchen is well stocked. Be sure to book Dixie for a homemade meal at the house. We asked for Baleadas (not on her normal menu) and they were great, only regret was we didnât have her cook her other dishes while we were there (gives us another reason to go back!)
Amazing place. Sarah, Mary and Dixie (Friend and Chef) were outstanding. We have never been treated so well by a host group ever. The place had everything we would have wanted. Diving with Clearwater was exceptional. Again best service ever. Can't wait to go back!!
This property is in the perfect location on the island and we enjoyed our stay immensely. A walk down the beach allows for 3 or 4 different places to eat and water taxis are readily available to take you to West End and West Bay. The people of Roatan are friendly and the fun is endless. We all felt safe and highly recommended visiting this beautiful island, especially staying at Lazy A Beach House!
The house was very accommodating for all 8 of us! We had everything we needed. It was the perfect location for our first visit to Roatan. Sarah was extremely helpful in getting us transportation to and from the airport and filling us in on places to visit. She hooked us up with Big John the water taxi driver and we were set for everyplace we wanted to go! Mary, her property manager helped us find Rosa to cook for us in the house so we had a delicious local meal. We had a terrific time. we hope to be back.
We had an amazing time great location Mary Rigo Big John Carter Nash all phenomenal the Boat Bar, Rags at Clearwater Divers. Mero Nicole, Ed and sweet Izzy we hope you had the best 3rd birthday!! Thank you Mario for the great drinks and service. Our family loved everything about our time in Roatan. Lazy A is perfect. Comfortable beds. Well equipped. OUTSTANDING caretakers. Perfect location. Wish we were still there
The property was as described in the listing. Perfect setting for our family of six. Three couples. Plenty of activities, able to walk to West End (although a bit rocky and our feet got wet) and West Bay.
Five minute walk to the scuba Centre, Clearwater.
So many great restaurants and snorkel settings. Loved our stay!
Everything about our stay was perfect. From before we arrived Sarah ensured we were setup with transportation. Mary the property manager was amazing and all her recommendations were spot on. The snorkeling right from the beach was amazing and a great way to start each day. I 100% recommend this property!
Two families each with teen boys and one 20y.o. Everyoneâs first time in Roatan. The house was clean, well appointed and well situated almost half way between West Bay and West End.
Mary, the property manager, was a pleasure to deal with and loaded us up with tons of information about the area, locals to use for the water taxi, etc. She also put us in contact with one of our favorite things from the week: Dixie, a wonderful local woman who we hired twice during the week to come to the house and cook dinner. We all immensely enjoyed our time with Dixie and her food was divine!
While only novice divers (we did two dives this week: SPECTACULAR!), we are all practiced and well seasoned snorkelers. We have snorkeled in Aruba, the Bahamas, USVI, Cancun and Grand Cayman and we all agreed the snorkeling on the Roatan reef was without question the best weâve ever done. It was simply perfect. Fantastic water clarity, hundreds of species, never ending reef formations and super calm waters. There is some fun little snorkeling right off the dock at the house and in truth spent a fair bit of our âdownâ days doing just that. But West End Wall was a walk/water taxi ride away and was phenomenal, and then we hired Big John, for a nominal fee, to take us out in his water taxi m to do a couple of drift snorkels along the reef wallâŠ.equally phenomenal. We are all excited to return some day, hopefully soon!
