Please enquire or give us a call so we can answer all your questions, offer you our best price and help you plan a fantastic trip to the island. Vivaro Roatan is a collection of purposely designed vacation homes in stunning locations. Privately managed and meticulously maintained our properties are at a standard well the above most homes on the island.

Roatan's fringing reef system rises up from the very deep Cayman Trench. The coral reef extends directly from the shoreline, fringing the perimeter of the island with a near-vertical wall. Vivaro - West End sits on the elevated fossil coral reef dating back more than a million years and feet from the stunning underground ecosystem that makes Roatan a fantastic destination.

HIGHLIGHTS:

***On a quiet residential point, Vivaro - West End is a 5-minute flat walk to Half Moon Bay and the heart of West End. Avoid the growing noise pollution of more central properties (Coral Vista, properties on Half Moon Bay, etc.) and the steep walk uphill (Sunset Villas)

***The property has backup power (no power = no water, flushing toilets, showers, AC, fans, etc) and UV filtered water.

***2 Oceanview Master Suites and a large creative lofted room - Sleeps 10 - 12

***LOCATION: Vivaro - West End sits on Roatan's stunning iron shore. The iron shore is the elevated fossilized coral reef dating back more than a million years to the Pleistocene epoch. Outside of its beauty, the iron shore offers a better breeze and less bugs than properties on the sand or in the jungle. From the deck you are feet from the Caribbean Sea. When you step out your front door, fantastic snorkeling, a beautiful beach, and island life are only minutes away.

***Private Infinity Pool and a spacious deck with ample seating

***Spacious and well provisioned Chef's Kitchen

Vivaro - West End - South House is a brand new three-bedroom OCEAN FRONT luxury home in the most peaceful and private area of West End. The ocean is literally feet away. The South House sleeps a maximum of 12 people. Built right on the iron shore, this West facing property affords amazing sunset views and sea breezes year-round. From the kitchen you will see every wave, the dive boats in front, fish jumping, and sometimes pods of dolphins. You truly feel as if you are floating on the ocean. While you might never want to leave the incredible deck, the bars, restaurants, activities and dive shops of West End are just a short walk away.

A highlight of the house is the large infinity edge pool jutting out over the iron shore. The pool is an amazing spot to cool off with magnificent sunsets as a backdrop. The size and position of this pool make it very unique in West End - private pools are rare - many are very small plunge pools. From your morning coffee on the deck to floating in the creative infinity pool at sunset, there will be days you will not want to leave.

The central vaulted great room is spacious with extremely large accordion doors that open onto a sprawling deck with stunning views. A large L-shaped couch and dining table that seats at least twelve adds to the functionality of this room. LED lights highlight the trellised ceiling while four ceiling fans help keep you cool. There is also large Smart TV (Netflix, Amazon) and a BOSE Sound touch speaker to enjoy your favorite music.

The sprawling outdoor deck space surrounds a large infinity pool with a tanning ledge and offers spectacular views of Roatan's fabulous reefs and spectacular sunsets. There is ample furniture, from lounge chairs and sofas to a large, shaded table for all your group to relax, sun, dine, play games, or read.

The chef's kitchen is large with white stone counter tops and dark Honduran wood cabinets. The LG gas cooktop is on a substantial island with seating for four. All appliances are top of the line LG. The double door refrigerator has filtered water and an ice maker. The kitchen has been meticulously outfitted with high quality knives, cookware, dishes, silverware, etc.

Vivaro - West End - South House is a three-bedroom house. There are 2 master suites - one upstairs and one downstairs. Each master suites faces the ocean, and each has a large deck. The master bedrooms feature Honduran wood floors, blackout curtains and luxury linens and towels. The large bathrooms with marble counter tops include rainfall shower heads and private toilet rooms.

The third bedroom is a very large, lofted room - perfect for children or a group room. This room has 24 feet high ceilings. It features a king bed and a custom triple bunk bed handmade of Honduran hardwood which feature one double on the bottom topped with 2 twin beds. The large loft and media area includes a twin trundle bed and lots of pillows to relax, nap, or watch movies. This room has a bathroom with a rainfall shower and a separate toilet. Kids or adults will love the comfort and space of this room.

Our goal is for Vivaro - West End to be as energy efficient as possible. Every option from LED lights to energy star rated appliances help to conserve daily usage. The power on Roatan is diesel generated and there are frequent, but brief outages. At Vivaro, because of a backup generator you will barely know when the power goes out. You will have lights, AC, water pressure, and be able to cook. Internet and TV also go down during power outages.

You will be charged for your group's electricity usage. With intelligent and careful use of AC, lights, and fans this charge should be minimal. This means AC only at night or when in the room, AC set at around 22 degrees, lights and fans off when not needed, etc. Energy conservation should always be a goal if you want to minimize your charges. The meter will be read upon check in and again at check out. Charges will be deducted from your security deposit.

Charges have ranged from $50 to $200 depending on the renter's personal choices.

There is a $500 cleaning charge for all groups. This includes a light cleaning at least once during your stay and a deep cleaning after your checkout.

Sheets and towels will not be changed every day. Water is scarce and conservation required. We expect guests to keep the house and kitchen reasonably clean during their stay. If you desire more frequent cleaning, please let us know so we can book a trusted cleaner.

We also include transportation from the airport to the house for stays of five nights or more for DIRECT bookings. (One car or van per group. We can help arrange additional cars if needed. Extra charge for driver to wait while you shop at Eldon's). We can help you arrange the return trip and quote you a price.

We are open to events. There will be additional event fees. Please inquire.

*You will need to purchase and bring some household items - shampoo, body soap etc. Some cleaning supplies are provided but we hope you enjoy your vacation and leave the laundry for when you return home with wonderful memories. There might be some pool floats - or the last guests popped them all.
*We love feeling a bit local on fabulous Roatan - meeting new travelers, expats, and locals at Sundowner's is a not to miss activity. Experiencing the small grocery stores, buying some fruit on the street, meeting a local cat, realizing how loud the tiny mosquito eating geckos can.

Home in Paradise with Walking Distance to Great Restaurants

We had a perfect, magical stay at the South House! Such a beautiful property with great amenities for our family! Kids loved the swimming pool, parents enjoyed the late afternoon beverages and wind coming off the ocean while seeing a beautiful sunset over the water!

An Amazing Stay at Vivaro Roatan

Perfection in paradise!

This is our third time visiting Vivaro, and it’s perfection every time. Amazing house with everything you need, walking distance to the West End, and a wonderful host who will help you with rides, reservations, activities — you name it. All you have to do is book your flight and then show up ready to enjoy it all. There’s a reason we keep coming back — and you should too. You won’t regret it.

Perfect Family Vacation

This home is perfect! From the moment you walk in the open front door to the breathtaking views out the open back door it will take your breath away. The house is clean, and beautifully maintained. The pool is amazing and the location of the house is perfect for doing all that Roatan offers! You will be a walk away from the beach, restaurants and local grocery stores. The ocean breeze will keep you comfortable both day and night. There is nothing better than falling asleep while listening to the waves of the ocean!

Fantastic place with an amazing view of the sunset every night!

Vivaro Roatan is fantastic in every sense of the word! We stayed at the South House for about a week. The pictures don't do it justice. The house is huge! Bedrooms are spacious and the kitchen living area has enormous vaulted ceilings and opens up fully to the outside...with and option to close it. It's all the space you'll ever need and we were a family of 7...3 adults and 4 kids. One of the best parts is that it's a 5-10 min walk into town(West End) where all the restaurants/bars, beach and dive shops are. Matt, who was managing the property was very helpful and arranged everything we needed for our trip and was reachable via phone or WhatsApp(which is the app that pretty much everyone on the island uses to communicate, including restaurants and water taxis. We can't wait to go back!

Our second trip to Roatan, staying with Vivaro was great again. Matt and Marty, as before, were very helpful. So convenient from the South House to walk into town. Wonderful diving, wonderful food, and weather was perfect. We will be back

Great Week in Roatan

Vivaro West End

The house is perfect and the staff are fantastic. If we had questions or needed anything the staff made all the arrangements and took great care of us. The pool and view are amazing, perfect for unwinding after a long day diving. Everything in West End is a casual stroll away. Thank you so much for hosting us.

Great stay at South House

We have been to many, many places in the Carribean and this is probably the best. Perfect location-easy walk to grocery store, restaurants, boats, beaches in West End (the "Happenin' Place" in Roatan). House was well maintained and exactly as advertised - and at a reasonable price. We will be back.

Best experience at Vivaro

What a gem! We never once regretted our selection. Ireland location to West End which allowed us to walk down ever day for our dive trips. Back to enjoy the pool and relax. Love Loretta (2 nights of chef) food delicious especially the lemon pie. Overall - one of our best trips. We appreciate all the attention and communication from Matt and Tanya. We will be back!

Incredibly beautiful home and views

The photos of this house do not do it justice. The tall ceilings and tons of fans with a good cross breeze and pool made the days perfectly comfortable. We opted for a/c only in our rooms at night and it was nice and chilly and didn't cost us much for energy. Matt was very welcoming and they were open to driving us anywhere on the island. The pool was clean and the perfect temperature. I cannot recommend this place enough!

Spacious paradise

When we first walked in, we were totally blown away by the beauty and expansiveness along with the incredible views! The property was exactly as described in the listing. The manager and owners were super gracious and communicative, very helpful. We felt that we had a ton of privacy and thoroughly enjoyed using both the indoor and outdoor areas. We loved the quiet neighborhood and proximity to town. Just a tip: you can rent a scooter right across the street from Hugo. Would highly recommend this gorgeous space!

Everything was ideal about the house and our stay. The view is just beyond. The house itself is gorgeous and modern and oh so comfortable. The hosts are outstanding and the upkeep of the entire property is superb. 5 stars all the way. It better be available though because we are coming back! If you are looking don’t hesitate. A complete home run.

Incredible Stay In The Perfect Setting!

We were lucky enough to travel with friends who booked the Vivaro North house next door which made for an even more enjoyable vacation. Both houses are conveniently located within walking distance to everything in West End, each has new modern furnishings and are very well managed. The property manager greeted us and was instantly available should we have questions or require guidance with reservations or general advice. The pool and cleaning staff were attentive and visible multiple times during the week.

beautiful location, lovely home

Wonderful home, excellent service (especially appreciated the answers to all my questions prior to our arrival) This was the first time we (family of 6 - all adults) traveled to Roatan and we had a fabulous time. The house was beautiful and comfortable and in an excellent location allowing us to walk to town, take a water taxi to West Bay beach, etc. We're ready to return. Don't miss this house!!
