Let me preface this review with I feel like the owners are doing what they can with the footprint of the property but it’s definitely a small casita with layout challenges.
Communications prior to and at the time of arrival were very timely and clear, and their maintenance guy was very responsive.
The bathroom is very tiny and almost impossible to get adequately vented. There is a window in the middle of the wall of the shower which is covered by a plastic curtain and the regular shower curtain is approximately 2 ft from that wall so while you’re showing you’re constantly battling plastic curtains from both sides.
The queen size bed occupies approximately 1/3 of the entire floor space outside of the kitchen and is placed in such a way that you must contort yourself to get between the bed and the kitchen counter in order to move about the room. Definitely makes middle of the night trips to the bathroom interesting.
Our last day there we experienced a unique situation where several of the floor tiles buckled and popped up from the concrete floor. The maintenance guy arrived very quickly after being notified and did his best to make the floor useable for the remainder of our stay.
Upon reaching out to the owner about the situation the only response was to inquire if there had been an earthquake. No asking if we were ok, no offer of doing anything or apologizing for the inconvenience, no follow up to check on things after the maintenance guy left.
That was disappointing.

Casita Stay
I stayed in the Casita for nine days in March. It was a great location and beautiful property! Debbie and Steven were fantastic hosts and answered all of my questions and made great suggestions. You can snorkel right off the dock, it is located right by Spooky Channel. The house had everything you would need and the hosts made it welcoming, unique, and knew all of the best adventures. This location is quiet and relaxing, with a short drive to busier areas of West Bay and West End. I will definitely visit again!

EXCELLANT Casita !!!
I am EXCITED to report that from the time we reserved this Casita for a week, thru…it was wonderful! Was met at airport by house Mgr. Kerry & dropped at grocery store- how wonderful was that! Response from owners was always very quick, listing was exactly everything needed for comfort & fun. Very clean, very well stocked inside, the grounds were beautiful, the pool is clean & right out the door, felt secure with security lights all around, just down the road from the Caribbean Sea & snorkeling, also, the main road is just down from the house to get any cab driving by. It felt so very private but just feet away from anything you would want. Owners also VERY KIND & knowledgeable about anything on the island from food to entertainment! We had a BLAST!!! We will DEF. be back to enjoy more of the island.

The privacy was great the pool was nice and cool! The kitchen was well equipped. Wish there were more face towel for a week (2 avail) Internet was fast but could not get cable tv to work. No big deal we used our laptop to stream. Wish there was a broom to sweep and there were no beach chairs as stated. Bring floaty's for the pool! The dock was a great place to see sunsets and sunrises! Definitely follow the advice "BUG SPRAY ALL DAY! "

Wonderful Two Weeks in Paradise
My wife and I enjoyed two weeks at the Cervantes Casita in the close knit community of Sunnyside on Sandy Bay, Roatan.
The first thing that stands out regarding this property is the magnificent reef which is directly in front of the communities’ private long dock. It’s a bit of a swim to the famous Spooky Channel but if you are a snorkelling enthusiast you will not be disappointed,..probably the most diverse reef that I have seen since the Great Barrier.
The casita is modest yet charming and we’re fortunate to have the swim and palapa area all to ourselves as the main house was not rented. The setting for this space is a colourful and lush jungle with the beach a mere three minute walk away. You will be surrounded by hummingbirds and tropical flora.
The property manager, Kerry is a good man who helped us along the way with some minor issues. like malfunctioning air conditioners. For a small fee he evened delivered us from the airport and then back again. On the way here he even made a grocery stop in Coxen Hole at Eldons Supermercado which is a modern supermarket that will fill all of your needs.
We plan to return and spend more time on this beautiful island. It is a best kept secret that I am hoping will stay this way for some time to come.
Thank you Debbie for facilitating such an amazing holiday. We will be back!

A Little Piece of Paradise
We stayed in the Sandy Bay Casita over the Easter Holiday 2018. We really liked the location not being in the heart of all the activity of West End and West Bay. We found it very easy and inexpensive to get a taxi at the Development's entrance off the main road. We enjoyed taking a taxi to West End and walking the beach to West Bay. The casita was well equipped for our needs with kitchen utensils, dishes, pans, towels and bedding. We lacked for nothing. I would consider staying in this Sandy Bay casita for any future trips to Roatan.
