TROPICAL ISLAND POOL HOME WITH CASITA & 400 FOOT DOCK

We were there from the 28-02-2013 to 14-03-2013. We loved that place the house is beautiful clean and well furnish. The pool was really appreciate. The emplacement was great just one our two minutes walk to the ocean not to far of grocery, west end, west bay.. and private emplacement with private pool. We recommand to rent a car to be able to go were you want when you want but we saw there was a lot of taxi passing there. We were a famely with teenager and also grand-parent and everybody liked there vacation. We will consider to go again in the future. We hightly recommand Casa and Casita Cervantes.

This is a great place and I can't wait to return. There were 5 of us vacationing together and our expectations were more than fulfilled. There was plenty of room for us to gather as well to find solitude. There are three bedrooms and each one has a door that opens to the wrap around deck. The owners are generous with amenities and what they offer for guests to use, such as lounge chairs, pool toys, kitchen wares. There is an easily accessible washer/dryer downstairs. The practical aspects left us in comfort however it is the less tangible experience of the place that has stayed with me. It was a hard choice to choose a rental that wasn't right on the beachfront, in fact I have never opted to be away from water lapping yards from the door. I'm glad I took a chance as this offered a different experience. The grounds are well maintained and tropical. The house sits on a hill with an ocean view and even though there are other homes in the area, a couple of acres away and unobtrusive, there was privacy and a sense of being away from it all. The beach is a few minutes walk and guests have use of a community dock. My main activity was snorkeling in the warm water of which I never tired. Spooky Channel is right there and is very fun to explore. At times there would be a couple of other snorkelers using the dock , sharing tips and experiences. The other community owners were welcoming and
helpful. A pool sits between the house and casita and there were two guests in the casita, which added to the experience, not what I would have predicted as I tend to think I want places to myself.The pool was a treat, well maintained, cleaned daily. I found no need for a car as you just walk down the drive and a taxi usually drives by within minutes though we did rent one for a day to explore the other parts of the island. Casa Cervantes is like an oasis of calm in an inexplicable way. The main road is not visible but the noise is audible, yet the place feels remote. It is not right on the beach but it is certainly an ocean experience and for me offered the best of both worlds, a short walk to great snorkeling,swimming, and sunbathing and also the privacy and view that comes with being on top of the hill. I had solitude anytime I wanted even though I was with a group of friends and there were guests in the nearby casita. It offered everything I wanted and I can't wait to go back.

Roatan does not look like a dream destination to me, might be just yet, but …. Casa Cervantes did make our vacation just great. Me, my wife and 12 y.o. son did occupy the casa and my eldest son with his girlfriend – casita. Spacious, everything in good shape, view from veranda just amazing. Pool area is the perfect spot to spend some time all family together, especially when afternoon sun just scorching. Deck with immediate (50m swim) to reef is a good thing too. Very convenient location – away from crowd and, at the same time, close to everything. Car rental is highly recommended. Casita’s caregiver, Kerry, (very kind and helpful, by the way) has some ¼ ton trucks for rent but we did use Dollar rent a car in the airport – my insurance does not cover trucks. Driving on Roatan a bit tricky but nothing really bad - about the same as in Costa Rica or Mexico. Nearby restaurants we liked – Hungry Kiwi (no dinner), Blue Parrot (try Saturday karaoke night), Blue Bahia (you can drive through the beach to there), Tex-Mex in West Bay, Mayan Princess in West End. Did not have a good experience with local deep-see fishing captain – name’s Tex. I have a doubt that he’s really knows how to do his stuff. Again, Casa and Casita did turn our vacation into a pleasure – thanks a lot to Debbie for excellent communication and management, Kerry for his help with everyday needs, Percival for his hard work on the parcel every day.
