A Week You Can Actually Run
For retreat leaders looking for a place where their group can truly be together. Bring your own retreat, your own guests, and your own vision to Puerta Azul. With the entire property reserved for your group, there’s space to gather, connect, move, eat, rest, and spend time by the water without the distractions of a larger resort.
Set directly on the beachfront in Sandy Bay, Puerta Azul offers a quieter side of Roatán, with a 400-foot dock stretching out over the Caribbean. Days can naturally move between the garden, the beach, the water, and the dock, giving you a beautiful setting for yoga, workshops, shared meals, snorkeling, paddleboarding, or simply time to recharge.
You bring the group. We close the property. When you book a full-property buyout, Puerta Azul is reserved exclusively for your retreat and we do not host other hotel guests during your stay. Our team remains here to take care of the details, while you focus on leading your retreat and your guests.
Everything in One Place
A 400-foot private dock, right outside.
The dock stretches into the Caribbean, ending at a palapa with hammocks and places to gather. The reef is close enough to snorkel from the property, with kayaks and SUPs available for your group.
Ten rooms, designed for retreat groups.
A mix of suites and villas gives everyone their own space while keeping the group together. Up to 18 guests can share the property comfortably, with additional capacity available for larger groups.
Restaurant, bar, kitchen and gathering spaces — all yours.
Your meals, drinks, workshops and downtime can all happen on site. There is no need to coordinate a collection of outside venues or vendors just to make the retreat work.
You bring the retreat. We take care of the place.
Puerta Azul is owner-operated, and our team is here throughout your stay. We know the property, the island and the rhythm of hosting groups — so you can stay focused on your guests.
You set the program. We build the week around it.
Your retreat might look completely different from the one before it. You decide how you want your group to spend their time; we take care of the meals, boats, transfers, rooms and island logistics that make the week flow.
Arrive & Settle In
Everyone arrives, settles into their room, and has time to slow down. A swim, a drink on the dock, and an easy dinner together — nothing scheduled until everyone has landed.
Begin
Start the morning on the dock or under the palapa with your first session. Breakfast follows, then time to swim, snorkel, read or rest. Come back together in the afternoon for a second session before dinner.
Out on the Water
Take the retreat off property for a day on the Caribbean. Boat out to the reef, snorkel, dive, visit a nearby island or simply spend the day on the water. Come back to Puerta Azul for a slow afternoon and dinner together.
Stay Awhile
A slower day with more space for your retreat program. A longer morning practice, workshop or conversation, followed by lunch and time to yourself. Add a massage on site, an afternoon swim, or simply nothing at all.
Island Time
A change of pace. Explore Roatán beyond Puerta Azul — visit a local community, head into the hills, spend more time on the water, or let the day unfold around your group. Back at the property, gather for dinner and an evening together.
Space to Integrate
Keep the schedule light. Start with morning movement and breakfast, then leave plenty of time for people to do their own thing — swim, read, nap, or simply relax. Come back together for an afternoon or evening session before the final dinner.
Bring your people. We’ll give you the place.
Whether you’re leading a retreat, producing one for a client, or simply gathering your own people, Puerta Azul gives you the entire property to work with.
Bring your practice. We provide the setting.
Teach your own program with space for approximately 20 mats under cover, plus the dock, beach and property for everything around it. Your group stays, eats and gathers in one place.
You bring the program. We handle the rest.
For producers running a retreat for a client or community, Puerta Azul gives you the infrastructure in one place: rooms, kitchen, restaurant, gathering spaces and on-site coordination. No need to manage a collection of outside venues and vendors.
Build the week around the water.
The reef is right off the property, and Sandy Bay is an easy base for diving and island excursions. We can coordinate boats, guides, transfers and meals around your itinerary, so the group isn’t constantly moving between locations.
Sometimes you just want the place to yourselves.
Families, friends, teams and other small groups can reserve the entire property for a private stay. With individual rooms and shared spaces throughout the property, everyone can have their own space while still being together.
Be a Guest at the Table
Meals are part of the experience at Puerta Azul. Beneath a canopy of trees, our open-air restaurant brings together the flavors of Roatán with the flexibility to build menus around your group. You choose the direction — including dietary needs and preferences — and our kitchen takes care of the rest. Choose open-air dining beneath the trees, with a covered space available when rain rolls in.
Our cooking stays rooted in the island’s culinary traditions, with Caribbean spices, local seafood, fresh produce and the comfort of a home-cooked meal, while leaving room for creative twists. From generous seafood platters to colorful vegetarian dishes, everything is prepared on site and served around the table.

Answers to Common Questions
How many people can we bring?
Our accommodations work best for smaller groups of up to 18 guests, with a mix of single and shared occupancy. If your group is larger, let us know and we can discuss what may be possible.
Who will support me on site?
You’ll have a dedicated team leader from the moment you arrive. They’ll be on site throughout your stay, coordinating the details and making sure everything runs smoothly so you can focus on your group.
When do we plan the details?
We start planning once your dates and group are confirmed. We’ll work with you on rooms, meals, activities, boats and transfers ahead of arrival so the week is ready when your group lands.
Why here?
Because the reef, the dock and the entire property are yours for the week. Puerta Azul gives you a beachfront home base with the water at your doorstep — and no other hotel guests sharing the property.
When is retreat season?
We host our retreat season from May through October. With more flexibility around dates, lower rates and fewer groups on the island, these months are particularly well suited to private retreats and full-property buyouts.
Do we have to use your restaurant?
For a full-property retreat, meals are handled through our on-site kitchen and restaurant. You can work with us on menus, dietary requirements and the style of food you want throughout the week. If your group heads out for an excursion or wants to dine elsewhere for a special evening, we can adjust the final bill to account for the meal you’re having off property.
Can we bring our own instructor or practitioner?
Absolutely. You bring your own teachers, facilitators or practitioners and lead your retreat your way. We provide the property and support the logistics around your program.
What happens if it rains?
Rain doesn’t have to stop the day. Puerta Azul is primarily an outdoor property, but we have a covered space that can be used for yoga, workshops, meetings and group sessions when the weather changes.
Can we leave the property for activities?
Yes. We can help coordinate diving, snorkeling, boat trips and other island activities around your retreat schedule. Puerta Azul remains your home base throughout the week.
How far is the airport?
Juan Manuel Gálvez International Airport (RTB) is approximately 15 minutes from Puerta Azul. We can coordinate airport transfers for your group.
How far in advance should we book?
The earlier you can confirm your dates, the better. Once your dates are secured, we’ll help you work through the details and build the week around your retreat.
