Miriam was an amazimg hostess. After a long flight from Canada she quickly made us feel comfortable and made the whole pick up/check in easy for us. She went out of the way to help us get around, laundry and cleaning service. She communicated with us easy through Whatsapp. She had a great network of support staff that helped us out during our stay. There was a lovely security man at night. The place was perfect for a couple. There was a private dock we were able to Snorkel off of. The location was close to some amazing restaurants, like Blue Bahia, Sunken Fish, Plan B Pizza, and the Anthony key resort restaurant Ankor Seafood. It was easy to flag a taxi from the main road if needed to get to West End. And it was fun and easy taking the water taxi from the dock, but slightly more money than a land taxi. Would go back again!

Beautiful property! Exceptionally clean. We loved sitting out on the covered pier watching the sunsets and sunrises. We were surrounded by wonderful wildlife… the dolphins, large rays, wild horses and many friendly dogs. Miriam, the house manager, is lovely and picked up hot food for us after a long day of delayed flights. We will be back!

Perfect bungalow on the sea

This property was exactly what we had in mind, a cozy little Casita on the ocean. Even though it was small, the kitchen was very well stocked and the bathroom was also nice. The shower was hot and had great pressure! The dock was wonderful to go sit on and have coffee and breakfast. The staff was very helpful and friendly, even offering to do a load of laundry for us! We were within walking distance of restaurants and the Sandy Bay Dive shop. Victor, the security guard at night, really helped us feel safe and protected. It was perfect. The only advice I would give other travelers is to research how much excursions (like snorkeling and fishing) and things like that cost before you arrive. We ran into some opportunists!

A little piece of heaven!

We loved our stay at The Sanctuary Cabana! Our favorite part was sitting at the end of the dock, drinking our morning coffee watching the dolphins frolic! Miriam, the property manager was wonderful! She was always there to help with our needs. Johnny the grounds maintenance man was just as helpful and accommodating as was Victor our trusty night watchman and his sidekick Roy! We will truly miss our new friends and look forward to coming back.

Just as wonderful the second time!

We had such a wonderful time here last year that we came back for another week. Once again Mirriam took excellent care of us from picking us up at the airport, to dropping us back off at the end of the week. The cottage was lovely and had all that we needed. We had a week of snorkeling, relaxing and watching the dolphins at Anthony's Key. We will be back! Thanks again Mirriam!

This is the spot!

Great spot on Sandy Bay. Close enough to walk along the beach to a few places to enjoy a meal. On site security at night is a plus, the dock is 100' off the reef for easy snorkel dips. The shower is a bit tight, we hope the manager and owner will renovate the space and make the spot even more PERFECT! Best hosts we have ever had the pleasure to meet!

This was a wonderful place to stay. Miriam, Johnny, and Victor made it even better. Being next to the dolphin Institute was a pure treat, and being able to snorkel and see so many amazing sea creatures right out from the dock was wonderful. I traveled down there with a torn rotator cuff, so I couldn’t do a whole lot heavy duty swimming, so this place was perfect

Great stay

Perfect place to stay if you want quiet, away from tourists. Had beach to myself, dock to myself. Felt very safe. Excellent views. Watched the dolphins every day. Easy to get a taxi. House was comfortable, grounds very nice. Easy walk to bar/restaurant. Wish I planned a bit better with grocery shopping that first day, gotten more food but I managed just fine. Had local meals recommended by the property manager—sooo good!!! Bring plenty of cash for tipping etc. Can be challenging finding working ATMs. Would definitely stay here again.

Winter escape!

From our first arrival, we knew that we were in for a great experience at The Sanctuary! Miriam and her bunch were so accommodating. Great little cabana right by the Caribbean Sea and protected from the prevailing winds with a location on Roatan that also provided us fantastic sunsets and good snorkeling! Location was very convenient to explore and to visit restaurants and shops. Getting a taxi was easy as well. Two weeks of paradise! Shirley and Greg

Can't wait to come back!!

What a wonderful week we had at the guest cabana at the sanctuary! Room for everything we needed and a perfect location! Miriam, Johnny and Victor made us feel so very welcome and take great care of the property and their guests. We snorkeled right from the dock to the reef a few times a day every day and it never got old. We saw tons of reef fish, cuttle fish, 3 different kinds of rays, an eel, lobsters and so many more. Having spotted eagle rays swoop past us 4 different times was a highlight for me. We ate breakfast every morning out on the lovely dock and watched the dolphins play just across the boat lane at Anthony's Key. We had wonderful dinners at the restaurants just down the beach, especially Blue Bahia. Thank you again Miriam, loved our time here at the Cabana!

Really great location. Steps from the water and access to the Marine Park. A short swim to the reef. Cozy cabana. Miriam and other staff very nice, helpful and always there to help if needed. Not a big space but great for 2. We likened it to a small version of Humphrey’s cabana in TV series Death in Paradise.

Amazing experience

The Cabana is located right on the beach with a beautiful warf and shaded area to sit. Snorking is possible just across and along the beach area about 20 feet out. Some grass but it's not a big problem. You can watch the dolphins from the warf! The cabana is perfect for 2 people. Well stocked for cooking, even some food, spices and toiletries were available. Comfortable bed and ample space for our things. A beautiful outdoor deck area is available and we ate all our meals on it. Miriam the property manager was amazing, very helpful and so friendly, thank you to Victor for guarding the property and Johnny for the wonderful meal and keeping the grounds so neat!.

Sanctuary- The Cabana Guest Cottage

Our 5-day stay in the Cabana Guest Cottage was wonderful. Marian and Jonny were welcoming and informative. The tiny-house utility of the cottage was easy to get accustomed to. Although the shower is tight/narrow it got the job done. We definitely recommend and hope to come back. There are many enjoyable aspects to the cabana but the location is the best part of this place. 🐬

Perfect Island Getaway

We loved our stay here! Although it is a “tiny house” everything is so well thought out and the space is perfectly utilized. We were greeted with fresh fruit and flowers from the grounds. Miriam and Johnny were excellent hosts and we felt very special and safe during our stay. They answered all my questions and made great suggestions. The snorkeling right off the property was superb. It isn’t unusual to see dive boats out there. The WiFi was excellent and we enjoyed watching Netflix at bedtime. The air conditioner worked great, too. The kitchen has everything we needed. Miriam will gladly arrange for a taxi if you need one, but you can also walk to the road and grab one on your own if you need one at the last minute. It was just a 5 minute walk on the beach to Tranquilseas, where we went diving with Sea Divers. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer! We will definitely be back!
