Roatan

We love this resort but we don't need fancy and the price is right. Most rooms have ocean view or you can see it through the trees some what. Steps away from beach and main building. Stairs to buffet and 2nd floor rooms. One buffet for breakfast lunch and dinner, not a lot of options but enough choices and very delicious. Also a lunch restaurant that has pizza/burgers/fries and sandwiches. There is entertainment crew but not a lot of activities...but lots to do to keep yourself entertained kayaks (paddle around the island), paddle boards, swimming, scuba diving and snorkeling (amazing snorkeling/scuba right off the beach and reef meters from gazebo...lots assortment of fish/lobster etc.) Best to take your own snorkeling equipment and you can go when ever but also available at the hut to use for a time. There is a dive shop there and everyone I talked to had nothing bad to say about them. (lots of options for diving) A lot of repeat guests for the scuba and snorkeling...it is a paradise for them. Only guests and employees allowed on the island so no one is bugging you on the beach to buy things. They do sell day passes to cruise ships but never an issue at all. Security all around (not that they need it, Island very safe). There is a pool but never used it...the bay is amazing for swimming etc. My daughter never swims in the ocean but does here and loves it. Swim up bar but was never set up. Lots of beach chairs anytime of day. Nightly entertainment ...karaoke etc some dances. Bar closes at 10pm and assortment/quality of drinks is limited but pina colodas are great and beer is cold. I drink rye so I just take my own bottle from duty free. There is a bar at the marina that you have to pay for beverages and opens late afternoon I think till ?? (never made it over there). Grocery store and basic mall close $10 taxi round trip p/p. Sloth and Iguana farm very close. West End/West Bay 45/60 minute car ride. If your looking for luxury/partying/lots to do or a variety of restaurants this place is not for you! Looking to relax and do some amazing snorkling/scuba (and/or on a budget) you will love this place. I call it a hidden/secret gem. And can't forget about the amazing Maria...your Sunwing Rep at the resort. Issues or no issues you have to say hello. Most employees are friendly...I think a lot are young and know limited English so are timid but are learning. Just smile and say Hola/Hello. And if you are there you need to experience this island...take a tour and learn about the different cultures. Go to East side and go through the Mongroves...spend some time in Punta Gorda. If you are looking for an amazing tour guide on Facebook look up Cleve's Tours and Adventures...you won't regret it.

Hotel was clean, staff was friendly, food was good. There is a bar and Pool on rooftop which was very private with a beautiful view. There are also 2 other pools located on the property. Lots of activities to do for a price, scuba diving, snorkelling, tours, water taxis, regular taxis. A beautiful island with beautiful scenery and Beautiful - Friendly people.

January 21 2019 was a great trip, the all inclusive was confusing but it is basically Roatans own beer and liquor that you are allowed. You always order from a different menu for your meals and the ship people or not all inclusive people have more choices on the cash menu. But the manager Samuel was fantastic and his staff all worked hard to keep everyone happy, I would like to say our main bartender Marcos Hernandez was very good at his job and a pleasure to be around also his co-workers milinda and Edwardo As for our server Jonathan he was very hard working loving and kind and went the extra mile just to make your holiday that much better. I would go back again for sure. In the reception area we had Richard and he was always very polite and would help you out in any way possible. If there is anything you would like to see or do they will guide you to the best person to talk with. Just a big hug and thank you to all the hard working people at Paradise Beach Hotel West Bay Roatan. Hope to see you all very soon Because my husband and I had a great holiday!!! and will be returning xoxo

the hotel is on a very secluded part of the island away for all the other resorts. perfect for quiet vacation. the beach is very nice and you can take their kayak as you please with no time restriction. you can snorkel around the dock on the beach and see very interesting and different species of fish. the rooms are very clean and big, we had a nice mountain and water view with a large balcony. the food is very good but not alot of selections. for divers lovers this is the resort for you. the dive center is on the resort. my husband being a diver had an amazing experience with them. they take good care of you and your equipment. they would prepare everything on the boat for my husband, he would just need to hop on the boat in the morning and not having to worry about anything. The staff is very nice and because it's a very small resort you do get to know all of them. It was by far one of my favorite destination of all time! i would go back there in a heart beat! if your not a diver like me this resort is also perfect as all the divers leave in the morning so me and a few more ladies had the beach, bar and hotel for our self. pretty quiet and perfect for relaxation in paradise for me! You can't walk to town as it is on the other side of the island but we hired a taxi driver who took us all around the island and visited every nook the island had to offer, let me tell you i was glad to come back to our quiet resort. the other resorts are great but they are all one next to the other and the beach is crowded. we even had free wifi anywhere on the resort even in our room. This resort is perfect for a family, couple or single person who just want a quiet vacation. you need to order your drinks as the bar closes at 9.
