West Bay Lodge

$$$$ | Roatán, Honduras Fodor's Choice
A lovely haven from the craziness that is West Bay Beach on a cruise ship day, this hotel is tucked away off the main road, but only a two-minute walk to the beach. The lush, green property houses eight updated bungalows complete with porch hammocks. The pool area is quiet and dreamy, with hanging table swings and lounge chairs. The on-site restaurant is famous for lobster baleadas, friendly parrots, and delicious hot breakfasts served to hotel guests each morning. Take a break at the day spa just steps from your room, where you can have an aromatherapy soak, a salt scrub, or a face mask made from local papayas.

Pros

  • On-site restaurant and spa
  • Dive packages available

Cons

  • No beach or ocean views

Mayan Princess Beach Resort & Spa

$$$$ | Roatán, Honduras

Set among gardens filled with scarlet hibiscus, these Spanish-style condominiums are along the shore at West Bay. A beautiful swimming pool with waterfalls is the centerpiece of the resort while the palm-sheltered beach is just outside the hotel door. If you want to snorkel, the reef is a few yards offshore. This resort is a favorite location for weddings and honeymoons and might just be the most popular spot on Roatán for all-inclusive travelers with young families.

Pros

  • Kid-friendly
  • The grounds stay lively at night with music on the beach
  • Free airport shuttle

Cons

  • The thrice-daily buffets serve underwhelming fare
  • Can get pretty crowded
