About this property
Fantastic beach front location in spacious property, unique house design
Our guests will enjoy a unique house design, experiencing a close connection with the beach nature and arts.
The living room and the kitchen have sliding doors to open the space completely to the ocean and the breeze. The outside decks are literally 10 steps from the water and the sunset. In the house there are other open spaces, corresponding to the idea of living as close to nature and sustainably as possible. In each of these spaces you will find living art and wooden sculptures. Every year new sculptures are created by the artist, who stays here during European winter (turelipan).
Design, functionality and location of Casa Argenta built in 2012 are great. The house is designed to be permeable to wind, which allows the tropical temperatures to be well tolerated, supported by the fans present in each room. There is no air conditioning, but AC is not really necessary in our home.
This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house for 6 people has a raw elegance which will fascinate nature lovers. 2 of these bedrooms have big windows with great seaview. The main bedroom has a private bathroom, and then there is another bathroom for the other 2 bedrooms. We offer towels, bed linens, shampoos and hand soap.
There is a full kitchen with all the amenities needed, open to the front deck and the beach. You will enjoy a spectacular view with your morning coffee and your sunset drink. These decks are equipped with hammocks and beach chairs. For a 180 degrees seaview or a star filled sky by night you can climb to the roof.
Since our house is right on the beach, the conditions of the building are sometimes challenging. We are constantly working on maintenance, but corrosion is fast and not everything in our house is always perfect. Thank you for your understanding!
The house is located in the Sandy Bay village, a quiet local neighborhood, just 2 miles away from West End. Situated right on one of the most beautiful sandy beaches inside the Roatan Marine Park!
This area offers great snorkeling right out of the house. We offer full snorkeling equipment, water shoes and a marking buoy to overcome the shallow entry to the water. In 10 minutes of swimming you will reach the best snorkeling and diving places. A kayak and a stand up paddle board are ready for you to discover the marine life of the lagune. There are different dive shops in the close neighborhood who will take you to discover the outside reef.
In walking distance and along the beach there are several options of resorts with restaurants and live music. If you want to reach some of the best places to eat and for groceries, walk for three minutes to the main road and grab a collective taxi or bus to West End.
The house has a modern alarm system with a direct 7/24 connection to Bulldog Security International patrols. There is a safe place to store your valuables.

About the host
Hosted by Hans-Jurg Pfaff

I am a cultural anthropologist and independent documentary filmmaker with a film production in Switzerland – now retired.
After hurricane Mitch 1999, I lived as a project manager of Caritas Switzerland in Olancho province in central Honduras. I visited the Bay Islands various times and fell in love with Roatan, where I bought one of the last pieces of beach property in Sandy Bay. More than ten years later, my Swiss friend and architect Stephan and I built this house together with a local crew.
Our local property manager Pino, an Italian who lives on Roatan since twenty years, is a tourist expert and will be ready to explain anything you want to know about the island. He also will organize your airport pick-up, and he will do everything to make your stay comfortable.

Why they chose this property
I love snorkeling and diving, and Roatan is famous for it's protected reef (natural reserve called Marine Park) and for being one of the best SCUBA dive sites in the world. Sandy Bay is a nice and quiet village with various resorts and not far from the main tourist hub in West End.
What makes this property unique
In front of this home, there is a nice beach-garden with three big almond trees and plenty of coconut palms. You will love the clean and quiet beach, unspoilt sun sets and the incredible sea view in front of your home! Beach Volleyball field and private parking in the garden.
