“Best at 1/2 the price”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

I just read a review that must have been written by a true cynic, one who wanted any reason to miscommunicate on this establishment.
I have.had property on the Island for 6 years. Went back to sell it, and stayed at West bay lodge for the 1st time, having stayed at the best and worst.
What a gem of a place amongst faux diamonds.
Milos and Celest are truly remarkable hosts as well as the hired help, who I got to know (I talk to everyone whether they want to or not) who all exhibit a desire to make the visitor relaxed and appreciative.
Food is incredibly fresh and cooked to Island taste, just as Hondurans like it. Eat in France if you want frog food.
Bungalows are extremely clean, a safe in the room, cable TV, and a hammock on the porch, which I used everyday. Bathrooms are spotless and hot water plentiful.
Animals abound and are friendly, can be watched for hours, and the parrots are a blast. all are well kept pets and not ferrel.
The lodge is a 2 minute slow walk to the beach, where people watching is at its' best, but NO no-see-ums that are a serious problem while staying closer to the beach.
The bungalows appear to be under the jungle canopy, and you get the feeling of privacy and seclusion.
The employees are always helpful, happy, and most of all, genuingly happy to serve you, or just chat about Island life and their personal advice on where to go, what to experience, and other dining experiences for diversity.
I have stayed all over the world, and many other places on the Island and mainland, and this family operated B & B is the best.
The rude and illiterate poster above does not resemble any place close to where I stayed.
I rate West Bay Lodge a 4 & 1/2 star out of 5, always room for improvement, but it is situated in a perfect location....Thanks for an excellent stay.

Room Tip: 8 bungalows, and all nice.

“Great place great price know what to expect.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 February 2012

The hospitality and helpfulness of the staff was excellent as was the food. We eat both breakfast and dinner (highly recommend the lobster dinner for 2). The parrots in the restaurant are very funny. The only downside was the stray cats and the people that feed them in the restaurant. There needs to be a sign do not feed the cats.

The beach is about a 200 yard walk from the property and is fine as long as there are not too many cruise ships in port.

“Excellent time”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

We just returned from a week at the West Bay Lodge. We had a fantastic time. The hosts Milos and Celeste were a pleasure to work with. The accomodations were just great. The room was well kept and clean and the bed was very comfortable with an excellent air conditioning unit that worked on a handy remote control. We couldn't believe how well we slept when we closed the louvered wooden blinds in the room. It was always after 8:00 in the morning when we woke up which is unusual for us as we are early risers in the working world. We did the romance package so we had a couple's massage and a pool-side six course lobster dinner. Both were well worth it and I would highly recommend them. The morning breakfasts were delicious and enjoyable with the parrots to accompany your meal, even when they wanted to be more "food friend" then real friend. The staff at West Bay Lodge were a pleasure to work with and they helped us schedule several activities that we wanted to do. I really believe that Roatan will increasingly become a huge tourist attraction because of the great beaches, warm weather and the fact that English is almost spoken as much as Spanish on the island. We would definitely go back again to Roatan and especially the West Bay Lodge.

“Best in the West Bay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

This was our third trip to Roatan and our first stay at the West Bay Lodge. The owners were always visible, very accommodating, making sure that we were very happy. Celeste and Milo truly go the extra steps to make sure that our stay was perfect. The value for the accommodation surpasses anything else in West Bay. We are divers and we were within any easy stroll to our Dive Shop and just about any other place in West Bay. That said, our next trip planned for this summer, we will stay at West Bay.

Room Tip: We stayed in Unit 7 - upper floor, deck with two hammocks and one table and chairs.

We spent a week at West Bay Lodge and loved it. The cabana were clean, comfortable, with lots of privacy from the plant. We had 4 people in the upper unit and 4 in the lower unit. The balcony had table, chair and 2 hammocks - perfect place for letting dive gear dry. The lower unit had a porch with table and chair. We loved the parrots, cats, and the great breakfasts. Milo and Celeste were extremely nice.
