My husband and I and 3 adult children and spouses (8 total) really enjoyed L'alize for a week. The owner, Roseanne, is attentive as is her manager, Lisa to everything L'alize. Edier and Mirna are wonderful local on site staff; so eager to please with driving, giving directions, cooking, cleaning, and probably anything else you'd want. Edier understands some English; Mirna and their precious 5 year old daughter, Gabriella, are super friendly and smile a lot! We used google translate for most communications. Edier was our driver for the week; definitely recommend him as we'd never have been able to navigate on our own on the island. Don't plan to walk anywhere; it's an island jungle with lots of curves and steep hills. Mirna cooked 3 beautiful meals, 2 of which she served on the outdoor patio/kitchen. They were delicious traditionally Honduran meals we were hoping for. The property is clean, kept up, well equipped, and as pictured. There are numerous steps that lead to the rooms, pool and keyhole--- make sure you can climb steps well before booking. The keyhole is pretty easy to get to and quite beautiful, but beware of the rocky slippery bottom and strong currents. Edier set chairs out to enjoy the views. AC worked well, we only used them at night and left the doors open during the day-the breeze was wonderful! Any issues, call Lisa and she'll tend to it! Proximity is great for beautiful West Bay Beaches/Resorts and West End shops, restaurants and bars, given Edier brings you. The water is amazing here! We took a diving lesson with West Bay Divers @ Grand Roatan Resort, did the glass bottom boat tour @ West Bay Beach, snorkeled & Lion fished @ Turquoise Bay, zip lined @ Gumbalimba, visited with monkeys, sloths, and birds @ Daniel Johnson's, did the dolphin encounter @ Anthony's Key, and visited the wonderful Roatan Island Brewery in Palmetto Bay and a cute little java shop, Bad Ass Java, and the Chocolate Factory tour in West End. Water taxis took us from West Bay to West End a few times. We had nice meals at Annie's Boarwalk Cafe on West Bay Beach, Luna Muna @ Imbagari, the Argentenian Grill, Azul @ Blue Roatan Resort. Bananarama and Paradise resorts have pizza and bars on the beach and let you sit in their chairs free if ordering. Needless to say, we were ordering... ;-)). Most places are very hospitable with friendly staff eager to please. Locals sell wares on the beach, but weren't bothersome.

We truly enjoyed our stay. We had lots of changes and questions for Roseanne and she kindly answered them all. Edier and Mirna were amazing!

What an amazing and beautiful place. My family and I came for a wedding, stayed at L'alize and were impressed with the property and surroundings. Eddie, our driver such a nice and punctual person, 10 minutes for pick up, he was not kidding. Mirna his wife cooked the most delicious breakfasts . Both always on time. Great place to stay with family. The private beach was a nice and relaxing place to be. If you want a nice quiet place away from the husstle and bustle with beautiful views, this is the place for you. And if you want to go and see the town, Eddie will drive you anywhere you want. My family and I had an amazing time. We will certainly be back.

We just spent a week at this property and had an awesome time. There were a total of 5 couples 2 of them were celebrating their honeymoon. We were greeted at the airport by Eddie the driver who doesn't speak alot of English but enough to get by. He was great about taking us wherever we wanted to go and always on time when it came to picking us up. His wife is the cook, we used her 4 of the 6 nights. Her Fried Chicken was excellent! We are all from Texas so we know a little about Fried Chicken. She went to the store and prepped every meal with fresh items. You won't regret having her cook for you. The home is Very Nice, be prepared to climb stairs though! There are ALOT of stairs, front and back. Going into the main house all of the doors were open and the ocean breeze felt amazing. There are two bedrooms upstairs one of them is the master with an amazing ocean view. The other two bedrooms are pool level. Every room has a AC unit in it but be warned that Electric is expensive. We generally only used them at night while sleeping. The two downstairs showers took a bit to get hot water, had to let them run for a while. The refrigerator in the main kitchen did not keep things very cold, the freezer worked great though. The distance from the house to the beach is about 60 yards give or take. The grounds are lush and beautiful. The beach area is more crushed coral than sand. The waves coming into the cove can be very strong and an under current was present that could pull you out if you weren't careful. Eddie dropped us off to go shopping a couple of days, never felt unsafe anywhere. We also got a day pass to one of the all inclusive resorts, the beach there was spectacular along with the service. Unless you are extremely picky you won't regret staying at this property. Rosanne, the property owner was great with getting everything set up and answering any questions. You will meet Lisa, the property manager, when you arrive. She is also a real estate agent. She spent the day with my wife and I showing us the island and some properties we are interested in. She is super nice and alot of fun. Also very knowledgeable about the island if you have any questions. Will DEFINITELY stay at this property again when we come back!!! P.S. When you go into town to shop or eat....order a drink called The Monkey LaLa. You won't regret it!!!!

We absolutely loved our stay at L'alize! Definitely take advantage of Eddier and Mirna for home cooked meals and private transportation. We mixed in Mirna's cooking with getting taken out to West End/West Bay and really enjoyed the stay overall.

This property has amaizing views. The Garden and nature was breathtaking. They could use some new pans, some nonstick stuff. We had bad weather and beach was rough, but still beautiful to sit by keyhole. Edier and family will be the cherry to your vacation, so worth to rent the transportation. Thanks again for an unforgetable vacation.

My family enjoyed our stay so much. It was the perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the amazing weather. We had plenty of room and it was nice for the teenagers to have their own space and kitchenette downstairs. The upstairs kitchen was very well stocked with dishes, utensils, and basics. We appreciated the water dispensers on both levels as well. We had Edier as our driver and he was wonderful, always extremely prompt and friendly. Mirna was wonderful as well. Our favorite thing was being able to sit out on the balconies and listen to the ocean. Our last day there was even calm enough to get out on the kayak! We snorkeled a bit in the cove and it was great. We’re not strong swimmers so we avoided going too far, but on the calm days we saw lots of fish and urchins and crabs. The pool was nice to cool off, and the breeze kept the house very comfortable so that we didn’t need to even use air conditioning except in the bedrooms occasionally. We highly recommend this beautiful house and hope to come back!

The location is beautiful. It is very isolated. You will definitely need to either rent a car or use their van. The keyhole beach is very pretty. It was quite rough most days we were there so we didn't snorkel there. There are lots of urchins in the water. This is a large home so there's lots of room to spread out. For some families, it may actually be too spread out. Layout is as follows: There are a lot of stairs (not safe for little ones). There are two bedrooms with baths on the upper level, and two bedrooms with baths in the ground level, with the living/kitchen/dining on the level in between. The fifth bedroom is a separate casita. The house is nicely decorated. Kitchen is well equipped. The beds are very comfortable although they could use new sheets and pillows. It was clean but not close to immaculate. Electricity is charged separately. We were charged $250 upfront. Be aware that if you don't use the full allowance, you are not refunded what you don't use. You may want to take picture of damage you see when you check in. We pointed out problems with the icemaker when we checked in. We were not able to use it the whole time we were there. Then when we left, we were charged $70 because we supposedly cracked the ice holder. It was our word against theirs, so of course we didn't get our money back. Overall a nice place to stay; esp for a group of all adults; and if you don't want to be close to restaurants and nightlife.

My travel buddies take 1 “trip of a lifetime “ every year year (We live quite the lives) We’ve been to a lot of great places. The location is the best! We love to snorkel and Roatan is the best in the Western Hemisphere And right out front on your private beach….amazing snorkeling! Super close to West End and West Bay where all the restaurants are. We had the van and Eddier drive us, that was so great! Can’t say enough! Stay here! 😎

My family and i had never been to roatan before and do not speak spanish so we were relying heavily on on the staff to help us out. We could not have been more pleased, Eddie was at the airport when we arrived and helped us get our luggage loaded. He answered all of my calls and was very punctual when we needed picked up. We had Mirna whip up a few meals for us and they were all fantastic. The house was clean and well stocked, you may be warned there could be power outages but we experienced about 30 minutes on only one day of the week we stayed. The keyhole beach is beautiful and is easily accessible if you walk the roadway, the stairs by the pool can be a bit treacherous if you’re carrying beach stuff/snorkel gear. We had 2 days that were calm enough to snorkel right in the keyhole and its gorgeous. Overall, we were very impressed and hope to stay again.
