Before you travel
Groceries, your way
Ask about an optional stop at Eldon’s on the way. Pre-arrival kitchen stocking can be arranged through Sherri for an extra charge; agree on the list and cost ahead of time.
Keep your arrival message handy
Your confirmed booking and arrival instructions are the place for host contact details, Wi-Fi information, and access instructions. Save them on your phone before you travel.
02
Arriving & settling in
Your first afternoon
Standard check-in is from 3 pm, Roatán time. Any earlier arrival needs to be arranged with the hosts. Take a walkthrough together and ask how the house systems and equipment work.
Find your room
Ocean Room: king bed and its own blue-stone bathroom. Jungle Room: king bed. Captain’s Quarters: queen bed. The Jungle Room and Captain’s Quarters share the green-stone bathroom. The open bunk loft has four twin beds and a lounge above the great room.
Make yourselves at home
Unpack, put groceries away, and take a quiet moment on the porch. Leave the ambitious plans for another day.
03
Living in the house
Water & power
The home uses solar power and rainwater. Use water thoughtfully, switch off lights when you leave a room, and keep doors and windows closed when air conditioning is running. Ask the hosts for the current guidance on drinking water.
Kitchen & shared spaces
A stove and oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, coffee maker, and kettle support meals at home. The covered outdoor kitchen has a grill and a mini fridge. Ask for a walkthrough before using equipment you’re unfamiliar with.
A little everyday care
Keep common areas tidy and treat the furnishings and artwork with care. The Sea Shell Bathroom is a half bath off the main room. Beach gear is stored in the utility bathroom. Ask your hosts to show you where cleaning supplies are kept and what to use.
04
Beach, dock & pool
Go with the conditions
Kayaks, snorkel gear, life jackets, beach chairs, and hammocks are part of the stay. Check weather and sea conditions with the hosts before heading out, and use equipment suited to your experience.
Rinse, return, repeat
Rinse snorkel gear after use and return equipment to its storage place. Beach gear is stored in the utility bathroom. Ask the hosts where to rinse everything before putting it away.
The community pool
The pool is shared with neighboring homes and is unfenced. Keep children under close adult supervision around the pool, shoreline, dock, and open loft.
05
House rules & good neighbors
Keep it comfortable for everyone
No smoking inside the house and no pets. Please respect neighbors’ privacy and keep noise considerate. Additional visitors need host authorization. Your confirmed rental agreement governs your stay.
Tell us while we can help
Report a problem or damage promptly through your host contact in the arrival message. For an urgent situation, use the local emergency instructions supplied with your stay.
06
Finding your island rhythm
Start close to home
A slow breakfast, time on the porch, and sunset at the dock make a complete day. Leave room in your plans for weather and for doing very little.
A day on the water
Ask your hosts about current local guides and dive or snorkel options. Confirm availability, transport, and cost directly with the operator before booking.
Borrow a plan
Our sample seven-day itinerary mixes time at the house with a few optional outings. Swap the days around to suit your group.
07
Before you leave
Checkout at 10 am
Standard checkout is 10 am, Roatán time. Arrange any exception ahead of time. Follow your host’s current key-return and departure instructions.
A quick reset
Wash used dishes or load the dishwasher, remove your food, return moved items, and tidy the spaces you’ve used. Close windows and place rubbish in the designated containers following the host’s instructions.
One last look
Check chargers, bathroom drawers, under beds, and the fridge. Make sure everyone has passports and travel essentials before leaving.
For your specific stay, always follow the latest instructions from your hosts and your confirmed booking.
