April Vacation

10 of us spent the week in this lovely property over April vacation. It was the perfect size for everyone to spread out and have their own space when needed but big enough gathering spaces for come together as a group. The pool was the perfect size- we spent quite a bit of time just lounging on the built in ledges.

Summary

The place was awesome and exactly as advertised. The road in was closed for two days but there was another way in. Not the fault of anyone. The house had everything we needed and the dock on the water was great to access water taxis which we did several times. The pool was great. The only minor complaint was the pans. While supposedly none stick, they haven't been for quite a while and could use an upgrade. Other than that we really enjoyed our stay.

Great private spaces and gathering spots

We are a group of three families who travels together to scuba dive quite frequently. The little apartments allowed us all to have privacy, but the big dining space and the extra chairs let us all sit down at the same table at dinner time. We dived every day and hired Roatan Chef Service to make dinner most nights…. The kitchen was well stocked and it was great to all sit together and then go to sleep in our private air-conditioned bedrooms with plenty of distance between families. We dove with sundivers and they would come right to the house dock to pick us up in the morning—-Pretty much a perfect vacation and a perfect house

Highly recommended

This house was perfect for our two family (9 people) winter holiday vacation. There are several different comfortable spaces to hang out and enjoy each other's company. The second story screened-in porch probably got the most use, with its excellent view and comfortable seating. The apartments/casitas provided our adult children with some privacy. We loved walking down to the Beach Grill for meals. Being right on the bay was lovely and perfect for kayaking and paddleboarding, though more kayak paddles would be useful. We dove with Sun Divers and they picked us up from our dock - we highly recommend them as well! The beach in front of the house is not great for swimming but the ocean-front beach is just a few minutes walk. The bedrooms are air conditioned and stayed perfectly cool though the living areas can get steamy at times. We were thrilled with this house, its location, amenities, and vibe. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

Great space for group of 8 adults, and 4 children

The property was great for a large group of friends / family. We each had our own space with private bathroom. We spent a lot of time in the dining area, family room and swimming pool. My only complaint is the living area has no air conditioning. There were ceiling fans, but they did not cool us down, which made it quite uncomfortable. There were plenty of 5 gallon water for us to drink, kitchen was fully stocked with pots/pans/dishware. They had plenty of activities like paddle boarding, and kayaking available. The rental company did a great job communicating with us, and attending to all of our requests. I highly recommend this property if you are visiting Roatan, South Bay.

Amazing space & views

This sprawling home was perfect for our party of 8 adults and a 6 month old. The four apartment-type spaces (2 casita's and a small & a large apartment) were perfect for our adult kids with spouses and a baby for privacy and quiet. So many places to relax and read and nap. The kitchen had everything we needed, plus the added bonus of a large grill, to cook when we didn't feel like going out. Great pool area with plenty of lounge chairs and tables and a tiki hut bar. Easy access to get to the pier and enjoy paddle boarding. Our daughter's boyfriend of 6 years even proposed at sunset New Year's Eve on the pier. It was beautiful! Property managers were quick to respond to any questions we had and were super friendly. Our only complaint - and it's not even really a complaint, more of a comment - was that several days were so incredibly humid and the main living area isn't air conditioned. It was hard to not want to seclude ourselves in our air conditioned bedrooms for the day, but we enjoyed games and fun with each other as we sweat it out, or simply just sat in the pool all day. Also, a heads up about the arrival to the house, consider it an "adventure" ! We all thought it was pretty cool to drive on the beach through the bumps to get to the property. Convenient location to West End that had endless dining options. Note: When you go through customs at the airport they will ask the address of where you're staying. We didn't have an address and just put down Sandy Bay, which didn't seem to satisfy three different agents. I finally pulled out our reservation and in spanish he yelled to the others that it is Casa de Admirada and that seemed to do the trick for everyone. Interestingly when we checked in with the Property Managers they had us follow them to the property because they said they wouldn't be able to tell us where to go because they don't have street names or addresses. If you book this property you won't be disappointed!

The Perfect Place for Family Vacation

This place was better than the pictures show. There was 12 of us, one couple with 4 kids, one couple with 2 kids and one senior couple (the grandparents) so we were concerned on booking a place for our size of group. This place worked perfect, space for everyone. Not one of the kids made a complaint about sleeping arrangement and the couples all had private rooms. The pool area was just incredible with a great pool, which I was a little surprised at the size of it, looked smaller in pictures, and lots of room for the loungers. The bar was a great feature with power and running water, made our pool parties even better! Will, the caretaker who lives in a house at front of property does a great job. I had read in other reviews how he was invisible, he truly was. He would clean the pool and do pool water tests early every morning before most of us were up (one child wakes early) and every day he and his kids (they were home and not school since we were there during Easter holy week) would rake and clean the yard as well as the beach in front of house. He did lots of things that made our stay that much better and enjoyable. The area was amazing, a short walk down Sandy Bay on the first morning, my wife and I found a great small restaurant called the Beach Grill which had great food and beautiful view. Also found a great little dive shop called Octopus Dive School. Four of us signed up for the Discover Scuba course and had a super great time and went back for a second dive. The things you see are just amazing and on the second dive owner, Nuria was our dive master and took us over a shipwreck that was just off the reef for incredible sights, even a large Grouper followed us out to the wreck. I had emailed Liz a few times before our trip and she was always quick to get back to me, which was so nice. Upon our arrival at the airport, which was busy, there was someone holding my name on a sheet of paper and a taxi waiting to bring us to the house just as planned. We stopped at Eldon's grocery store to get a few things on the way to the house. It turned out not to be to far of a drive, since we also rented a vehicle during our stay, which worked out great since we went back a few times to the store. At the house we met Bertha, who showed us through the house and all the things we needed to know. She was great during our stay, always easy to get in touch with and very helpful with any questions we had about the island. Perfect place for family with kids!

Roatan Family Vacation

We arrived mid-afternoon and unloaded our bags etc. The kitchen and living room were a sauna (we're from Texas, we’re familiar with heat and humidity). All of the windows were open and no breeze, rendering the entire space a place you didn't want to hang out in. In previous reviews it was mentioned the homeowner was installing AC to the kitchen/living room area in 2022 so the assumption was that this space had AC. Some of the ceiling fans worked, some didn't. I called the property management company and they immediately responded, brought oscillating fans to the house AND had AC installed in the kitchen/living room the next day! So, if you’re reading this……. There is 100% AC in the kitchen and living room now! Literally a game changer. Kudos to the homeowner and property management company for making that happen so fast. Positives: 1) All interior spaces have AC (and ceiling fans) and it’s awesome 2) Will, the groundskeeper is very nice but honors your privacy 3) Property management company responds ASAP if you need anything * The pool area is comfortable and fun for everyone * Plenty of shower and beach towels * The house and grounds felt safe. Will closes the gates around 7pm (or whenever you get back to the house) and opens them about 7am. In all, the house turned out fine after we figured out the intricacies and tweaked the AC. It’ll comfortably sleep 12 and the casitas/apartments have their own refrigerators and space should you need to escape.

Great location with plenty of space.

Great location right on the water in a quiet neighborhood. Well stocked and plenty of water sports equipment to use. The place is well designed and large enough to spread out and have privacy. Will, the caretaker was very nice and the 2 dogs are great if you want them around otherwise they leave you alone. Walking distance to several restaurants up the beach.

Case admirals was a disapy

This property is not as listed. It is in need of a facelift. After our first night there we had a list of things that needed to be fixed. Some were felt with. Others we fixed ourselves. Most out door lights were not working. Two air conditioners were not working. One air conditioner a week into our stay flooded the bed of the room the person was staying in. The bed was dried out with pillows by the pool area. Nothing like enjoying your day around the pool looking at a mattress lol. The pool is in need of repair as it is sinking and there was a constant dark ring around the pool. A simple scrub from one of our towels showed us this was not a permanent stain. There might of been a flower bed near the pool but all that remained there was weeds and garbage. There are paddle boards and kayaks to use but all the paddles were broken but two. Myself and two other members of our party walked the beach are and removed the broken glass and garbage. The dock is in need of repair with boards missing or broken. We stayed for two weeks with no housekeeping. Thought perhaps someone would show up after one week to at least empty garbage. There is a washing machine and drier there which some random family came and did their laundry at one day. Lol. I would not recommend this propert

Lovely visit

We had a lovely time. We had to jump through some hoops to fulfill the covid restrictions and find testing during the holiday season within 72 hours of arrival. Luckily, the new restrictions were not in effect when we returned. The house was better than expected. I had a hard time envisioning it from the pictures. Liz was great and went out of her way to make my day. The property was quiet and peaceful and we had plenty of kayaks and everything was close for adventuring. We would not hesitate to return to this property or Roatan

Great location on quiet bay

This house had enough room for everyone to spread out. The pool really made it for those of us who were non-scuba divers. The tropical breeze was so great that for most of our stay A/C was not needed. We found a scuba diving operation in West End that would pick us up at the dock. That was a real plus. Having a caretaker on the property was nice from a safety point of view.

Can't wait to come back

A group of 8 stayed the end of February 2020. We had plenty of space, we enjoyed the pool, paddle board and Kayaks . Will takes good care of the grounds, and the property people would check in by email to make sure things were going ok. We loved the location and we plan on coming back in the near future.

Great for large groups

This property was great for our group of 9. The paddle boards were fun and easy to use. We had a few hiccups: the power went out and the generator only provided power to one casita, and the pool was green and had to be treated with chemicals during our first day, so no swimming in it until the second day. Other than that, there was plenty of space to eat together, and also separate when necessary. Our driver, Frankie, was super helpful and available whenever we needed a ride, and the onsite caretaker, Will, was also very easy to work with. I definitely recommend this property!

Great house for large group.

The house was perfect for large group or multiple couples or families. We particularly loved sitting out on the huge screened porch. Main area not air conditioned but with doors and windows open, a generally constant breeze kept it comfortable most of the time. You don’t really want to go in the water as it is thick with silt and a bit slimy. But the pool is large and wonderful to swim in. We rented a boat for the week and having the dock at the house was perfect. Would have given the house a 5 except for issues with appliances. As mentioned in other reviews - the burners on the stove don’t work properly so cooking is hampered. The washer worked ok - but it took multiple times to dry bath towels in the dryer. So don’t plan on washing too many clothes in lieu of packing enough for the week. Having caretaker, Will and his family on site was excellent. Pool was always clean and ready to go before we even got up. Loved the dogs! Overall - we had a great trip and would rent the house again if we had a big group!

Amazing view!

I would highly recommend staying at Casa de Admirada! The view was beyond beautiful! It was very clean and the staff were wonderful. I loved having the rescue doggies around, as I missed my fur babies from home. The location was perfect, close to town, yet away from all the crowds from the cruise ships. The fact that we could walk a few minutes and be at several amazing restaurants was one of the best parts. The pina coladas at the Sunken Fish were the best I have ever had! We will be back for sure!

The house was fantastic

We loved the house. The pictures don't do it justice. The pool and outdoor space was great. They need to replace the oven. The bay that it is on isn't great swimming or beach so if that's your main purpose for the vacation I would think twice. The tour company they use is ok. We really enjoyed Frankie our driver who was arranged by them. The private chef Jenny that they also Arranged was great. Be careful when ordering seafood out of season because the cost of ingredients will be outrageous. One of the meals I had to pay $350 just for the food cost. They also said they would arrange to pick us up from the airport but we had to pay $70 which I thought was extremely overpriced. All and all the house was great but I would be careful when using roatan tours...

Wonderful week traveling with 3 families

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa de Admirada! The layout really worked well for our group of 6 adults and 5 kids. Plenty of room so we never really felt crowded. The pool was a huge hit with both the kids and adults. We also made good use of the Kayaks to explore the Bight. Having our own dock really made diving and fishing so much easier as the boats were able to just pull up and pick us up. One of the highlights was having a dinner prepared for us at the house one night. It was delicious (especially the stewed chicken with rice and beans!). We also too advantage of the grill and kitchen(s) and made many of our own meals. A short walk away was the Sunken Fish, a nice little bar/restaurant right on the water. West End and West Bay were each just a short taxi ride away. However, we ended up spending almost all our time right on the property. What a wonderful vacation and we hope to be back soon!
