Rubi's was such a great find. It's off the main road but somehow, you don't hear any noise. The setting is beautiful--hammocks, deck chairs, picnic tables, and a dock with deep, clean water that's perfect for cooling off. There's a shared kitchen, too, though I didn't use that. The wifi is decent--it worked for slightly fuzzy Skype video chats, so... More

Nice place, private bathroom, big rooms, owner is very nice and just a good guy. Only problem is the A/C in the room didn't work even though they advertise A/C in all rooms. The maid is very nice and attentive. She cleans the rooms spotless and even folds and organizes all your stuff.

I loved it at Rubi's. The owners are very friendly and helpful, the location is excellent, the rooms are large and comfortable. Hot water, fridge, free wi-fi (although it does go down every so often). It's right on the water and there's a dock so you can just jump off into the clear-blue sea. Laundry service was fast. The rooms... More

Really enjoyed our stay in Rubi's Inn, the place is on the spot water-front, really great view and breeze (see pictures). Centrally located but not noisy and with laid-backed travelers (not party animals,etc..). Great and clean rooms, great service and if you are lucky you'll get the corner room and you will be literally able to jump into the water... More

We stayed for a week at Rubi's and loved it. The owner is very nice and the rooms are very comfy (hot water, AC, wifi, fridge...) and are cleaned daily. The hotel has a nice garden with its own dock, and is located just where you want to be: amongst all the dive shops. Definitely would recommend it, best value... More

The owner Tony, is a really friendly guy who will do what he can, to make you feel at home. The place has a great centrally location and is nice and peaceful at the same time. The little private beach is very cute and relaxing - notice that it isn't sand but coral beach. There is a dock though, so... More

We stayed for a week whilst we dived Utila. This hotel is perfect as a base when you are diving. The rooms are spotlessly clean, spacious and the hot showers are great. There is no air con but they have fans located right above the bed. They also have a small kitchen if you want to prepare your own food... More

The beds are comfortable, and the hotel gets a really nice breeze at night. It´s in a great location, and the dock is a... More

The couple who run this little place know what they are doing. The rooms are probably the best deal on the island (although air-con will, like in most places here, cost $15 extra a night). The rooms are large, clean, bright and well maintaned. It is the kind of place where the maid folds your shirts and arranges your boots... More

in the midst of some a trip that began with several dissapointments, my partner found us a clean, neat room at Rubi's. The owner is on the premesis,is completley laid back, and also completley invested in keeping his hotel clean and well maintained. There is a small, modestly equipped kitchen for all to share Private baths with hot water shower... More
