I stayed at West Bay Lodge in Feb. of this year and really enjoyed it.We are going back in April and staying there once again. The reviews on trip advisor are true. The owners really do treat you very well and are very helpful. I am also planning on staying at the Hacienda as well. I can't wait to stay there as it looks just perfect. Enjoy. If you have any specific questions about WBL just ask.

Sosa, Isleña, and Atlantic fly from Roatán through La Ceiba. Isleña is part of the Taca company. All them should have early morning flights from Roatán. There are links on the links page of the Coco Pando website, though booking online is problematic. You could try to book by phone or online and then pay at the airport counter for that airline when you arrive at SAP at the beginning of your trip. An hour and a half is definitely NOT enough time, even if the hopper flight is on time.

I greatly prefer to save my island time till last so would stick with that. You'll have a wonderful time either way. Keep us posted!
