Great for Families

The property is safe. The golf cart is a great addition to the property when travelling with elders. Additionally, the Golf Cart is great if there have been recent rains on the island. The home outdoors are beautiful. The overall stay was great with some maintenance hiccups that we did not anticipate given the nice home and ample space. More attention to the house maintenance may be needed before and after guest depart/arrive. Communication about portable water availability will be helpful during communication with manager prior to arrival or at booking so no additional water is bought during the one grocery stop at pick-up from Ferry. Host communication was excellent and flexible. Overall, Casa Familia is a great home with plenty of space and located in a safe neighborhood despite it not being at the beach doorsteps.

Beautiful house

Beautiful house and plenty of space to be on your own or alone. Love the fact that we were so close to the beach. I would probably look into talking to the neighbors about fixing the stagnant water pipe canal system that is on the path to the beach. It smells and there are plenty of mosquitoes/ sand flies. Also, flights going back to the mainland tend to be in the afternoon, having a place to store the luggages while one waits by the beach would be a bonus to this property. Other than that, we were happy with this house, thank you! Luisa

Casa Familia was amazing!

Casa Familia was a beautiful house for my family and friends. We rented the main house and apartment below (there were 10 of us in all). The house had everything we needed to cook, do laundry, plenty of towels grilling tools, coolers, umbrellas by the pool, and all the small things we forgot seemed to be in the hall closet! We left a few items there for the next people also. The pool area was great for when my kiddos got tired of the ocean. We grilled outside and the kids loved to eat outside on the screened in patio. The couple minute walk to the beach was nice and had so many options right there for food/groceries/shopping/massage/hair braiding/snorkel tours/parasailing/fishing/drinks (pretty much you name it, it’s right there). The water was clear and felt amazing! We look forward to coming back again!!

Perfectly Amazing

From the time we booked, right up to our arrival, Tom and his wife were so accommodating. Right up to adding extra blow dryers for us 3 ladies. Some Island delights. 😋When the shower heads broke they had a plumber out there the same day to replace them. They helped set up transportation with Johan from the airport, a stop at the local grocery store first. And taking us to the airport when it was time to say goodbye. Thank you Mr and Mrs Deighton for a fabulous vacation.

About the host

Hosted by Tom or Renee Deighton

We are A Canadian couple from the Toronto area. We always dreamed of owning a place in Roatan and took the leap in March 2021. We renamed the property Casa Familia because our dream included family vacations with our 5 children. We are both professionals, I am in business management and Renee is a television host. So we have busy lives and want a place to decompress, for us that place is Casa Familia. The home is set up perfectly for large or multiple families we hope you love it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Casa Familia is unique for the West Bay Beach area. It is a 3 br/3 bath home that is not only very close to the beach but also has a pool (built December 2021). There are not many detached homes in the west bay beach area that offer the superb beach access and a pool.

As much as the house itself is comfortable it’s the outdoor areas that really make Casa Familia so great. As mentioned there’s the pool, the pool area includes a huge sun deck and palapa area with sectional, bar and sun loungers. The house also has a completely covered and screened wrap around deck. Perfect for enjoying you mornings and evenings outdoors with no unwanted pests.

Our home is part of the Emerald Beach subdivision so our guests have access to a beautiful, mid beach area. We have our own chairs and loungers there for you to enjoy a quiet area on Roatan’s most popular beach.

We are an easy walk to dozens of dining and entertainment options, a dive shop on our street and water taxis to the West End. We are close to all the action you like but located in a very quiet neighborhood.

Renting a car or hiring drivers are easy options on the island but it’s not a requirement at this location because of our proximity to so many amenities.

If you need even more space there is a one bedroom apartment on the ground level below the main house that is available (separate listing). Has separate entrance.

We love our place and we love sharing it, hope you consider Casa Familia.

What makes this property unique

We love West Bay Beach and wanted to be close to it. Beach Front on West Bay can be very busy (and expensive) and is typically condos or hotels so we looked for quieter options that were walkable to the beach. We couldn’t believe our luck finding Casa Familia.

The area we’re located is Emerald Beach, it is a very established subdivision in West Bay and not many homes come in the market here. The big draw for this subdivision is the beach access (mid beach right beside the Henry Morgan resort) . When you enter the beach area, all you’ll say to yourself is “Wow”.

It’s a location that people have to experience to understand. You have a world class Caribbean beach about 300 M from your home but you can also choose the peace and tranquility of your own tropical backyard.

The house itself was also a big plus for us because it has 3 large bedrooms and large common area. In fact the entire inside/outside finished area is about 4000 square ft. We think it’s the perfect location to discover Roatan and West Bay but still have the privacy you want when you want it.

Finally, West Bay beach offers so many great dining options, either on the beach or within short walking or water taxi distances. We love to cook but we rarely do when we’re here.
