About this property
House On The Hill majestic ocean view walking distance to beach and restaurants
The apartment is situated on over 1/2 acre of private property, surrounded by a lush jungle. Up on the hill you stay away from bugs, heat and the dreaded sandflies. Our property allows you to live like a local and experience the island of Roatan in a more authentic style, secluded by the hill and the jungle around the house, away from the crowds, while being close enough to West End and West Bay, and quite a few amenities at walking distance. Situated in the quiet neighbourhood of Sandy Bay, House on the Hill is the ideal place for a relaxing stay. The apartment is ideally located, nested in a hilltop with a breathtaking ocean view.

• Fully equipped kitchen with special care of offering people who like to cook offering full utensils, chopping board, good knives, etc.

• Hot water shower, full set of towels plus a set of beach towels for guests

The house is up on a hill as the name states, and it’s not a good fit for people with mobility issues. It’s a set of stairs with aproximately 160 steps up. All our guests find the trek worthwhile.
Walking distance to:
• Sandy Bay Beach
• 4 x Restaurants (Blue Bahia, Tranquil Seas, Plan B, AKR), full supermarket, convenience store, vegetable stand, laundry
• 3 x Dive Centers
• Full supermarket close by, small store walking distance, some street food walking distance
Airport / Ferry pick-up can be arranged at an extra cost with a driver that picks you up.
There is a discount for stays over 28 nights for people wishing to live like a local for a month or two.
We live on the property with three amicable island rescue dogs, who will happily keep you company, if you wish. We also help our guests with recommendations, tips and local knowledge. The guest entrance is private with an outside gate. You are welcome to use the back yard. You also have your own private ocean view balcony with outside dining with as well as hammocks. There is space to hang your wet beach towels and clothes off the line on the side balcony.
The hill is surrounded by jungle, so it feels very much secluded, while being right across the main road from Sandy Bay beach, four restaurants, three dive shops and an authentic and safe local / expat mixed neighborhood. Experience the real Roatan, like a local.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Franco Garuti
Im from London, UK and I work as a dive instructor on the island. I have lived here since 2015. We love giving our guests tips and welcoming them to our rental home, we like guests to feel like they have moved in for a short while.
Why they chose this property
It's a nice mixture of expat and local community, it still retains its roots and authenticity. We have 4 restaurants walking distance, the beach across the main road, in a quiet and detached neighborhood, away from the crowds of West End and West Bay. 5 minute taxi ride to West End when you want. The main road is a block and a half away so it’s easy to use public transportation. We also have a scooter we can rent you or put you in touch with a car rental company if you prefer that.
What makes this property unique
We have a fantastic ocean view, surrounded by lush jungle, you feel away from crowds and the daily life up in the hill.
Having a less touristy beach right across the main road makes our home a viable option for anyone looking to stay away from the crowds. At the same time the neighborhood has developed and we have new restaurant options, two of them on the beach, as well as a Spa and other amenities close by.
Our home allows you to live like a local, and experience the more authentic Caribbean island lifestyle while having amenities close by.
Our three dogs love guests and most of our guests leave the gate open to have their company when they are in the house, but of course you can choose to close off the space and they will stay in our apartment.
