Beautiful Facility

We had a really great stay. The facility was beautiful and very well maintained. The condo was perfect for our 3 couples. The only disappointment for us was that the restaurant and bar were closed the entire time we were there. One of the reasons we picked that spot was to have options to dine/drink on site due to the location not being in town. Had we known they would not be open we would have picked a different place to stay.

Can’t imagine staying anywheres else!

The Meridian was absolutely gorgeous & I truly couldn’t imagine staying anywheres else. The private beach was amazing & perfect for us….and then having the Kismet restaurant and bar right there on the beach was icing on the cake….everything was perfect & exceeded our expectations! We definitely will be back!

Wonderful vacation destination!

What a great spot to stay in Roatan! The place was spacious, fantastic beach and sunset view from the balcony, easy access to the pool, beach front salt water pool, and on sight restaurant! The best part of all was the amazing snorkeling right out our "backyard" where we swam with turtles, squid, tropical fish and so much more! I definitely recommend this spot but make sure to have a rental car so you can get around to west end and west bay easily if you want to explore the whole area.

Great West Bay Villa

This villa was just as described, and we enjoyed our stay quite a bit. The main thing was that the hot water heater went out our second day, and due to the weekend timing, the owner was unable to get it repaired/replaced during our stay. So, we had cold water showers for all of our stay except the first (partial) day.

Winter get away

Amazing property! Great location lots of restaurants and other beaches down the road. Glad we had car to explore things. Sunsets were the best and great to sit on patio and watch them. Would definitely rent again. Amazed how easy it was to get jugs of water refilled when needed. Kitchen stocked well and lots of spices to utilize. Dining table needs some adjustments quite wobbly but for most part everything was great. Thanks Matt!

Best Diving and Snorkel Trip

The property is amazingly clean and beautiful. The pool is wonderful and the Villa is excellently maintained. There is not a more beautiful spot to see the sunset and the snorkeling out to the reef and wall was simply the best we saw on the island. If you go to the right and follow the channel out you can easily make your way to the diving buoy and you are the reef wall with a 50’ drop! We saw all kinds of fish; eel, and eagle rays. Amazing! I would come back a thousand times!

Meridian Roatan

No bedding for the 2 pullout couches, but the overall place is nice. It’s for people who want a quiet place with no activity going on. You need to have transportation set up to go anywhere which gets a little bit of a hassle. We did find a person who provided great transportation. Pizza on Sunday is great!!!!

Great location for solitude on a busy island

This 2nd and 3rd floor space was perfect for our family of five adults. The sunset views are unmatched anywhere on the island. It was a very peaceful and quiet location to stay. The only drawback that surprised us is that the swim up bar is closed however that's not really a problem as the front door to our villa was only 30 seconds from the pool area. The Kismet is an excellent place to watch the sunsets from and we also found out they have stone fired pizzas on Sunday evenings which were also excellent. Matt was a very responsive owner for any and all questions. We would stay again.

Wonderful experience!

The property is amazing! Steps from the ocean, restaurant and pool. If you wanted, you could want through Grand Roatan to get to West Bay, but we found it too hot so we took taxis. Cost a little more but worth not overheating. It would have been great to have a car, but we made do with the taxis. The rooftop pool got a bit green within a few days, so that was a bummer but I don't know how you can maintain those things in all the sun. Overall very wonderful!

Roatan Get Away

The villa was just as described. A quiet oasis away from the hustle and bustle, yet close enough to the action if that is what you desired. Beautiful sunsets, viewing of the full moon from the rooftop, quiet, with very friendly staff. Even though this was within walking distance, we ended up renting a car as the walk had fairly steep up and down hills that although doable, would have been strenuous for some. Matt was a great host and explained the lay of the land well before we arrived. The snorkeling off the beach was some of the best on the island although it helps to talk to someone about the best in and out since there are rocks and coral to navigate. We loved having the on-site restaurant to eat at and order take out. Highly recommend.

Good time had by all

Really liked the property. Our seasoned travelers consisted of three couples, and we would all recommend staying there. We never used the upper level & deck pool. The roof top area could have used some powerwashing. We enjoyed the central pool area more. The beds were very comfortable and kitchen had all the necessary dishes and utensils. Plus, there was a large water cooler ready for use. We couldn't get the TVs to work well and wifi wasn't very strong, but it wasn't a big deal because we didn't spend much time indoors. The central pool area, on-site restaurant, and beach were great. Very private area, beautiful sunsets, and it felt safe. We walked to West Bay beach area a couple of times, a short distance, but prepare to walk uphill.

Beautiful condo, pool, location, etc., etc., etc.!

We recently returned from an 8 night stay at the condo. We were 3 couples, so the spacious layout is perfect - 3 private en suite bed/baths, 3 balconies with great views and a very large kitchen that many people could be in at the same time. Everything is quality amenities, architecture, appliances, furniture and finishes. We had a couple of little glitches in the beginning, but the host/owner quickly arranged for things to be addressed to our great satisfaction, and all was excellent! The complex is wonderfully quiet, yet you can go over to West Bay beach for all the liveliness, people, activities, sandy beach, bars and restaurants - although Kismet restaurant on the Meridian property is fantastic! The pool is gorgeous and we loved snorkeling right at the Meridian property and next door in front of Grand Roatan. We recommend this place and hope to be back here again, as we didn’t get to see nearly enough of the island. Thanks Matt, from Janet & group!

Good location. Very poor host commutation and amenities under construction.

This is an owner-managed property that is part of a larger complex called “The Meridian”. It is a great location, however we were overall disappointed in our stay due to a few host-related issues. Host was non responsive after multiple attempts to communicate prior to the trip. Finally sent check-in instructions less than 24 before arrival. Arrived at the property and the Meridian team was unaware of the stay. I attempted to contact the host to clear up the confusion , but he was non-responsive. Ultimately the Meridian staff allowed us to check in after I showed a copy of the instructions. The Meridian team was very helpful during the stay and a pleasure to meet. Additionally, the property was getting re-roofed during the stay. This was very noisy and messy. The entire rooftop was unusable due to debris and the private pool at the villa was also filled with construction debris. The furnishings in the villa are also very used and outdated. The location however is magnificent, and once again the staff at the Meridian were a pleasure.

Family Vacation July 2024

The condo was great, with an even better view. The beach was literally right below the balcony. It doesn't get better than that. Everything was clean and gorgeous furniture. The beds were very comfortable. We did not use the pool on the roof, as my son did go up a couple days in and the water was green. We didn't mind much, as the main pool was beautiful and we are more beach people. Snorkeling was really good right in front of the complex. It wasn't the easiest to access as you need to navigate through the coral some to get through, but some of the best on the island right there. Daniel, the bartender at the beach will help point you the right way through. Just ask him, he's great! Location was really good. About a 15 minute walk to West Bay Beach. Take the short cut through the Grand Roatan to avoid the worst of the hills. Follow the road, and you will find a gravel path that brings you right down to the beach from there. We did the main road hills once and I paid a taxi $10 to bring me back. We referred to that as the $10 hill going forward lol. We ate at the restaurant twice, it was quite delicious, but we mainly walked into west bay beach for meals at different restaurants for variety. Our favorite was Annie’s Boardwalk Cafe. Right at the end of the beach. They have their seafood boil on Thursday & Sunday nights and you MUST try it! Would definitely return and stay here again.

This place is amazing!

Hello Matt, I wanted to write a review for your place, because I felt that strongly about the awesome value it is and how much we enjoyed staying here. We have stayed at many VRBO homes, but this one is exceptional. So here it goes... This is the perfect place to stay on Roatan. It is our 4th time to visit the island and we have stayed at The Meridian Lighthouse Point each time. We love the area where your home is located and would only pick yours because of it’s location and how nicely you have it decorated. Close enough to all the fun the island has to offer, but with it’s own secluded beach. The home is amazing, all new and beautiful. We love how you can escape upstairs onto the outdoor deck with private swimming pool. It overlooks the beautiful ocean. So much privacy and yet your outside overlooking an incredible view of the sea. Down the stairs and your right there close to the main pool and little cafe/bar area as well. Beach is only a few steps away. We love it! We rented a van and drove to the very other side of the island where we could take the boats through the mangrove trees. It was awesome. We went to a little restaurant/bar where it’s only accessible by boat and had such a great time. Thank you for making all of this possible. I am overwhelmed at what a great property you have. Perfect location, and so beautiful. Thanks again for allowing us to stay here. We love your place!

Beautiful Villa, a few issues

My family and I stayed here last week. There were 4 adults and 1 toddler. Pros: Top quality construction, beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, gorgeous views, excellent AC (super loud though in all rooms), great on site restaurant with an awesome waiter (Alex), awesome rooftop deck with pool and relaxing ocean and star views at night. Cons: This complex is a work in progress at the moment. There is a lot of construction going on all around. The noise wasn't bad until our departure day, which they may have kept it quiet for us during our stay, but the unit(s) underneath this one are still being finished inside and while we packed to leave there was a lot of loud banging, so not sure if that would continue for others during their stay or if they would hold off while it was occupied? The water pressure was non-existent almost everyday, with a trickle coming out most days. The manager, Gwen said it was due to filling up the pool, but it was like that everyday. We only had hot water 2 days out of 7 because of the water heater needing to be reset. We rented a cell phone from the office there and it didn't work. The second one we were given didn't work either, the third one was a charm and did work. You really need a cell phone to call taxi cabs. I would suggest renting one in town instead. The location is peaceful, but the walk to West Bay Beach is not easy and we are all pretty fit. We relied on taxis more than we anticipated to go back in forth to West Bay. For the price, I would suggest including a cell phone, a BBQ grill, and at least the cost of an airport pick up. These are nice ammenities that, when included, take some stress out of the vacation. We noticed that many of the vacation rentals include these things in the weekly rent, even at a lower weekly rate. Once this place is fully finished it will be amazing I believe. There is supposed to be a shuttle to West Bay, a swim up pool/bar, and consierge services. Victor, the onsite manager was absolutely amazing and arranged a fishing trip for us and helped fix the water heater one of the times, and also helped get us another working cell phone. And Alex, the waiter at the restaurant was friendly and funny! And Juan Carlos, who the owner suggested, was AWESOME! He took us on the best island tour and was great with airport pickup and drop off. Our vacation was wonderful and the villa was comfortable and beautiful. To justify the price, however, a few kinks should be addressed.

About the host

Hosted by Matt Adkins

Host profile image
Villa del RIU has been a dream of mine since I first sank my toes in the silky white sand beaches of West Bay. Roatan is such a special place and I am sure it will be for you too. The friendly people and welcoming culture make Roatan a home to everyone that visits.

Why they chose this property

This location is ideal for any reason of vacation. West Bay has an amazing white sand beach with warm waters and world class diving and snorkeling. It also hosts numerous cruise ships and visitors every year. Villa del RIU is minutes from all of the action but far enough to be private and secluded offering the best of both entertainment and relaxation.
