Nine standalone rooms with two distinct ways to stay. You can wake up with the Caribbean Sea at your feet, or slip into seclusion among the trees. Either way, you arrive at the same unhurried Roatan pace. Every accommodation features open floor plans, patios with hammocks, handmade furnishings, bespoke artwork by regional artisans, and bedding that earns its own review.
Rinse off beneath the open sky in our beachfront suite’s outdoor showers, or craft your own island‑inspired meals in our garden villa’s fully equipped kitchens. Hammocks hang from the patios, creating the perfect space to unwind. And at the end of our 400‑foot dock, the world’s second‑largest barrier reef waits just below the surface.
Our beachfront hotel is just 10 minutes from the buzzing streets of West End, set on a one‑acre estate in Sandy Bay where the jungle meets the sea. Here, mornings move slower and connections run deeper.
Absolutely perfect Caribbean paradise! We loved our week at Puerta Azul. Our beachfront suite was luxurious with breathtaking views of the ocean.

Oceanfront romance, steps from the sea...
Unobstructed ocean views frame every moment in our most romantic beachfront suite. Wake to sunrise over the Caribbean, rinse off beneath the stars in your private outdoor shower, and fall asleep to the rhythm of waves just steps from your door. This is where the sea becomes part of your daily ritual.
Your private beachfront patio opens to partial ocean views and a hammock that seems to hold time still. An outdoor shower, exposed beam ceilings, and Caribbean breezes create the perfect balance of island charm and modern comfort. This is barefoot luxury at its most authentic.
Designed for small families or traveling friends, this suite features two comfortable beds and an oversized walk-in shower. A private porch surrounded by natural greenery offers intimate outdoor space just steps from the reef—giving you the best of both Caribbean waters and tropical gardens.
The private villas were immaculately clean and beautifully designed, offering the perfect blend of comfort and tranquility. It felt like our own secluded retreat nestled in paradise.

No boat needed, no reservations required. Just grab a mask and dive off our 400-foot dock into waters where the reef comes to life beneath you. Or take a complimentary kayak or paddleboard and explore further along the coastline, where each paddle stroke reveals something new.
Perhaps today isn’t about adventure. Maybe it’s about finding the perfect spot on our dock where the only decision you’ll make is whether to turn another page of your book or close your eyes completely. Here, doing nothing is doing everything right.
Feel the salt air sweep over you from your private patio, or meander down our private 400′ dock where the world’s second largest barrier reef awaits your discovery. From delicious meals to activities from our private dock, explore the thoughtful touches that make us unique.
From guided snorkeling tours and fishing charters to sunset cruises, Roatan's wonders are yours to explore as you please.

Yes! You’ve likely already heard about Roatan’s notorious sand flies. These tiny bugs are present throughout the island. We do our part by spraying around the property and regularly raking the sand; however, they’re still around – so prevention is important. Mosquitoes are also present, especially at sunrise and sunset.
We recommend bringing a reef-safe, oil-based repellent made with natural ingredients, or a DEET-based option if you prefer. Being proactive and consistent with repellent will make a big difference. We also carry a locally made, eco-friendly option at the hotel if you’d like to try something produced here on the island.
Your stay includes a delicious cooked-to-order breakfast served daily from 7:30 AM to 9:30 AM, complimentary WiFi throughout the property, and free on-site parking.

The property features an on-site restaurant serving lunch and dinner, and our dedicated concierge service to arrange tours, activities, massages, and transportation. All water sports equipment can be used at your leisure to explore the pristine Caribbean waters and nearby Mesoamerican Reef.
The beachfront at Puerta Azul rests along seabed flats—a fragile ecosystem that nurtures countless juvenile fish and marine creatures. While the shallow shoreline isn’t suited for wading, it’s lovely for children to play in the sand and for setting off on a kayak or paddleboard. For swimming and snorkeling, our dock stretches 400 feet into the sea, where the sandy-bottomed water opens into a stunning spot to explore the reef. From the dock you can slip directly into the sea, where you’ll often spot incredible sea life that thrives in the seagrass below. The best snorkeling is a short swim from the dock, where you’ll encounter vibrant coral formations, tropical fish, and the world’s second-largest barrier reef system. Many guests say the snorkeling directly from our dock rivals paid excursions elsewhere on the island.
We don’t have a pool, but as a beachfront property, the Caribbean Sea is just steps away. Our private dock stretches 400 feet out over the water, offering a quiet place to sunbathe, read, or simply enjoy the view. From the dock you can slip directly into the sea for swimming and snorkeling, where sandy-bottomed waters and the nearby reef make for an incredible natural playground. Many guests find that the pristine Caribbean waters and direct reef access offer a more authentic and memorable experience than a traditional pool.
