We stayed at Mangrove docks for seven nights. Caroline, our host/contact, was exceptional - she helped us rearrange plans doing everything should could after a covid diagnosis that threatened our vacation. She advised us on dive shops, things to do, and even connected us with a driver who made arrival, groceries, and departure smooth and hassle free. Everything worked out perfectly.
Our unit it was clean and well stocked allowing us to cook for ourselves or eat out. Our rooms were comfortable and everyone was happy with their arrangement.
We spent a great deal of time sitting on the deck and scanning the horizon. We were able to assess dive conditions easily by looking at the waves breaking (or not) at the entry to the large cove we faced. We didn’t need to rent a car as everything we needed dining, bars, dive shop was in walking distance. So many options we did t have to eat at the same place twice - except when we wanted. The small peninsula we were located on had a secluded feel despite being a 3 min walk to hussle of West End. Safe and secure with friendly people at every turn.
We even took a trip in Karl Stanley’s submarine to observe six gilled sharks at a depth of 1300ft - truly once in a lifetime experience given only a handful of options around the globe.
You may have gathered by the review above - Roatan was great, our accommodations were great, and our whole experience was fabulous - highly recommended.
