Modern Beachfront Casita with Dock and pool ON THE BEACH

This unit is the first floor/ground level of the house. It has it's own entrance with a screened in lanai and open covered patio facing the beach. Large comfortable space has breathtaking ocean views, with access to the beach and a community pool.

This 2 bedroom casita sleeps 6 and has everything to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. A fully equipped kitchen, TV, free wifi, and A/C, plus full size washer dryer. There are SUP boards and kayaks for rent. This property has easy access to transportation, and it is close to the airport, West End, West Bay Beach and grocery stores.

The property is unique to Roatan. Just off the main road to a private beach area that is part of the Roatan Marine Park preserve. The reef system parallels the white sand beach of Sandy Bay. A safe and calm area to swim and explore the waters abundant with tropical fish and corals. This is a quiet tranquil area without high end hotels and condos but close to the tourist meccas.

The quiet sandy beach includes a private 300 ft. long pier accessible only by the small Sundancer community. The pier has an upper deck for sunning, and a shaded palapa over the water.

Just off Sundancer's Pier to the right is a natural deep water channel that allows larger sea life to come and go on the reef. Often seen are large squads of squid, eagle rays, turtles, huge grouper and large parrot fish. This natural opening in the reef also makes it easy for boats to pick you up for fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling and touring.

Property is conveniently located in upper Sandy Bay, with grocery stores just 5 minutes away. West End is about a 6 minute taxi ride headed West. The airport is a 10 – 15 minute ride away. The long Sandy Bay Beach stretch offers a variety of Roatan Island activities. The Salty Mango restaurant is right next door, to the east, and Lawson’s Rock is next door to the west, with a morning café, and restaurant. Anthony’s Key Resort is 1 mile to the west, with dolphin encounters, restaurant, plus a medical facility, offering COVID testing. You can rent a car or scooter to explore the island as well.

This beach has some of the best snorkeling on the island. you will see dive boats that take tourists out to the reef that you can swim to. We look forward to hosting you!

A relaxing escape with the family
We had a wonderful 3 weeks in Roatan at this beachfront locale. Sunsets were spectacular! Everything was as described and comfortable with all we needed to live on for our long stay. The BBQ was a necessity for us as we enjoyed grilling the fish provided by the local fish monger. We thoroughly enjoyed being on the ocean and were snorkeling or swimming each and every day. The snorkeling is a short swim offshore and recommended - remember to bring a safety float. Conrad and Maritza were helpful and responsive if any issues came up. The island of Roatan is still in need of much improvement with its infrastructure but power outages are fewer than in the past and local taxis are abundant and of reasonable cost (best to use Lempiras to get to Eldon's Grocery store etc). Hopefully when we return there will be some sidewalks in place as walking beside the road here is not safe. A few minor fixes to the Lanai screen and a number of the doors would be advised. Also, a comfy lounge chair on the deck would have been a perfect addition. Overall a great chill holiday.

Beautiful Oceanfront Property - Sandy Bay, Roatan
We stayed for the month of February 2024 in this beautiful ocean front property. The house has the best view in the Sundancer Community in Sandy Bay. It was exactly as described, clean with everything you needed for any length of stay. All appliances clean and in great working condition. This is the first home we stayed at with a bbq and now it is a must have for our next stay - so convenient. Beds and pillows were comfortable, water pressure was perfect and having both a screened in area and open deck area to sit and relax - fantastic. It was great opening up the doors and having the ocean breeze come in. Every morning (except Sundays) grounds keepers were raking the beach and cleaning up the seagrass, the grounds in this community are well maintained. It was fantastic being able to swim out to the reef from a private dock which we did quite often. Conrad was incredible! He was very accommodating and very quick to respond to any questions that we had. He gave us recommendations on restaurants to eat and suggestions on places to visit during our stay, little gems that he thought we may enjoy. Conrad - thank you so much for making our stay at your beautiful home an unforgettable experience. We loved how you took the time to share your local knowledge with us - it truly enhanced our stay. We definitely will be back! Cindy & Bob l’Ami

Great week in January
We had an absolutely wonderful week. The unit is in the best location in the community. Literally right on the beach and right at the dock. It is not actually a part of the Sun Dancer community but has use of their pool. I believe the dock belongs to the unit owner and is shared with Sun dancer. They actually have beach grooming every morning, but it was really only needed the day after we had a bit of a storm. Loved the island. This is more of an old-Caribbean style island. Pretty laid back. Liked it better than the main-stream islands (have been to Aruba, Curacau, St Lucia,Cayman - and loved them all but this is the first island that all of us said we would return to any time. Prices are more reasonable than the other islands. Only a couple restaurants within walking distance, but there is a vast array of restaurants a short distance in West End - a great location. Sandy beach is great but there is grass sea grass and wading is not great. But no worries - there is a swim platform on the dock and great snorkeling 100 yards out from the end of the dock. Great shallow reef and lots of fish right there. Unit is clean and well furnished and supplied. Luke was very helpful. Great deck - half screened with a grill. We are pretty likely to return in a year or two. And next time we may use the grill.

Great getaway
Stayed from the 10th-15th of January, had a blast. Construction was going on next door, but it was virtually unnoticeable and many workers smiled and waved as we passed. Casita is no frills but comfortable and right on the beach-- a great location to sit on porch for coffee and watch the ocean. The dock is also great to hang out on in a hammock or to swim out to the reef. The reef is a fairly long swim but if you are an average or above snorkeler you should have little problem getting out there. Very decent snorkeling overall, many parrotfish/ reef fish, lobsters, eels and the like. Luke the property manager set up a sunset cruise for us that turned out to be great fun. Would definitely recommend, distance to West End is maybe 10" car ride or so, which we found quite acceptable for the peace and quiet obtained. Thanks!

Wonderful Stay
This property is in a great location. The weather was cloudy and very windy much of the time we were there so not much beach time. But lying in the hammocks with a good book was awesome. Luke was very attentive and responsive to our needs. I would definitely stay here again. As per other reviews there was a slight sewer smell once in awhile. All of the appliances worked well, the beds were comfortable and clean. We went to Coconuts a few times to eat and enjoy the staff there. Thank you Luke and Conrad!!

What a delight this property was. Right on the beach, as advertised, and the rooms exactly as we expected them to be. Loved the screened in and not screened in porch options. A delightful stay away from the cold November up north.

Great place to stay while visiting Roatan
We booked this property because it was centrally located and right on the beach. Lodging was clean with good amenities and the property was nice to explore. Easy to find right off the main road with easy access to explore the island. Snorkeling was pretty good right off the dock. We’d definitely come back again if we find ourselves returning to Roatan.

Nice place
Enjoyed our stay. Very thankful for property mngr and arranging a car for us; you will definitely need a vehicle to stay here. Assumed we could swim out from the shore as well but found out you can not due to turtle grasses. That was a bummer with having small kids with us but jumping off the dock was fun. Definitely recommend bringing snorkel equipment.

I had high expectations and they were met
Beautiful location, beautiful place , beautiful view. I have mark this place as the best home rental I every been to. Owner and property manager were very helpful and amazing. Secluded community not too far from everything. You could hangout at the beach, swim in the pool, sun bath on the dock, fish, and snorkel, go to multiple restaurants within short walking distance from the rental. Insect repellent is a must for lounging or activities outdoors. I WILL definitely be back.

Roatan
I thought it was in a good location as we rented a car so we could go whenever we wanted. The rental was in a quiet area but the west end was close enough to have fun. It was nice to have the big grocery store on the island close as well. We rented a kayak from Conrad and paddled out to the reef and snorkeled most days. The snorkeling was awesome. The only thing I would definitely recommend is to buy some bright orange buoy so boats can see you. There is a lot of boat traffic that could be a problem if they don’t see you. The air condition was good and the washer/dryer being on site was very convenient. The only thing I didn’t love with the rental was the plastic chairs on the porch. It would be nice to sit out there in something more comfortable. There was also open areas in the screen porch which made it easy for bugs to get in. Overall we had a great vacation
