Roatan is one of Honduras’s Caribbean Bay Islands. Part of the huge Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, it is known for its pristine beaches, dive sites and marine life. While visiting Roatan, visitors will get the chance to dive with whale sharks, feast on delicious Mediterranean food and enjoy picturesque views of the sunset by the beach. If that all sounds extremely appealing, you might want to take your next trip to Roatan, Honduras. A word of caution though–any destination has its fair share of crime, and in Roatan, visitors are encouraged to be extra attentive to their belongings as instances of burglary have been reported. Also, ensure that you travel via reputable transportation and tread tourist hot spots with caution. That being said, vacation rental options in Roatan are numerous, with options that cater to a wide range of size and location preferences. There are also many non-touristy things to do if you want to explore like a local. Below are some excellent vacation rentals in Roatan, Honduras.
