About this property

Beachfront! Diving, Snorkeling, Kayaking on site. Turtle Casa, ENTIRE VILLA!!

Turtle Casa is a fabulous 3 story Beach Villa with each level featuring a full kitchen, living room, dining areas, bedrooms and baths. This listing is for renting the ENTIRE HOUSE - THREE FLOORS, SIX BEDROOMS, 4.5 BATHROOMS, THREE KITCHENS, TWO MASSIVE DECKS.

We have 5 additional listings on VRBO that will give you more choices for all of our 2 and 4 bedroom options to suit your needs and budget. Listing address' are provided at the bottom of this section. Please check them all out and make the choice that's the best fit for you.

Electricity is INCLUDED. We simply ask out guests to be conservative with it, as it is VERY EXPENSIVE on Roatan!

Turtle Casa will set the stage as one of the best properties you can find on Roatan for affordable and comfortable group gatherings. Everyone stays in the same Villa on 3 separate floors, but has their own private suite for quiet time and a place to unwind. There are even separate kitchens to keep mealtimes simple and easy. Traveling with a group is great fun, but you'll really appreciate having private space to retreat when desired.

Gather together for socializing in the very spacious Gaming Level (middle floor) with Billiards, Darts, Games, Bluetooth Stereo, Dining space for 12+, Projector and an expansive covered patio. Retreat to your own private suite when you want to just relax and have private time. For this reason, Turtle Casa is just ideal for Family Reunions, Destination Weddings, Missions Trips, Dive Trips, or any reason groups travel together!

WIFI: If you need to get some work done (or just like staying in touch or streaming) Turtle Casa has upgraded to the highest residential WIFI package available on-island through Fiber Optic cable. We've added a Google Mesh system to reach all corners of the large villa with excellent upload and download speeds as well.

The Villa is located in the Sandy Bay area, away from the commotion and noise of the tourist areas, and at the same time just a short drive to the best areas on the Island for public beaches, restaurants and nightlife. Our property is ideal for the traveler wanting to stay away from the crowds but close to the action. You'll appreciate the quiet at night when you're sitting out on the veranda or swinging in one of our Hammocks, watching the stars and listening to the waves crashing on the reef just offshore.

You couldn't have a better location for Diving, Snorkeling, Kayaking, Fishing, Island excursions to Cayos Cochinos or other exotic locales and Sunset Cruises - The hallmarks of a vacation at Turtle Casa. Walk out the door and have your party picked up right at the end of our dock for all of these activities! Our next door neighbor (Capt Tim) shares our expansive dock and runs one of the most popular charter services in Roatan for deep sea/fly fishing, Island Excursions to Cayos Cochinos and other remote locations like Pigeon Cay and Sunset cruises. Look him up on the web at Ruthless Roatan Charters - You'll want to take advantage of an unforgettable excursion with the best service on Roatan, leaving right from your dock!

And speaking of our dock, Turtle Casa features a custom 2 level Dock, built with ocean activities and entertainment in mind. Plenty of Adirondack-style seating, hammocks and Sea Kayaks make this a great place to spend a relaxing afternoon. And your diving/fishing/excursion operators all can pick you up right there without having to leave the property!

Or slide one of our kayaks down the easy ramp into the ocean and kayak out to the gorgeous coral reef, just off shore, for some fantastic snorkeling at Roatan's famous dive site, Spooky Channel.

Have you always wanted to swim with Dolphins? The world famous Roatan Institute for Marine Science is located within walking distance from Turtle Casa at Anthony's Key. Here you can Snorkel with Dolphins, Dive with Dolphins or even become a 'Trainer for a Day'. An experience you'll never forget!

So much to do right on site - AND away from all the crowds.

And then there's Turtle Casa's spectacular deck's overlooking the Ocean; my favorite place to swing in the hammock's every morning with a cup of coffee or watch the unbelievably gorgeous Caribbean sunsets!

Lastly, Turtle Casa provides a garage with automatic doors and a full size washer/dryer for your convenience at no charge.

Now let's move inside and I'll describe each of Turtle Casa's 3 private suite's in detail:

If you would like to check out our other 2 or 4 bedroom options, please see the bottom of this section for direct links.

The Penthouse Suite, 2BR/2Bath - The top floor of Turtle Casa, THE PENTHOUSE, features wood floors, fine furnishings from Bali and central America, well equipped kitchen with granite counters, a fine dining table for 6, a very large covered veranda with loungers, hammocks, gas grill and an outdoor dining set for 4. This suite is geared for the more discriminating travelers with 2 large Master Bedrooms, each with it's own private master bath. Master Bedroom 1 features a King size bed and master bath with 2 sinks and a beautiful mosaic rock shower with dual "rain" style shower heads. Master Bedroom 2 features a queen size bed and master bath with 2 sinks and a shower/tub combination. The Penthouse is our most sophisticated and luxurious suite, offering spectacular unimpeded sunset and ocean views.

The Gaming Suite, 2BR/1.5 Bath - Gather together for socializing and fun in the very spacious middle Gaming Suite featuring Billiards, Darts, Games, Books, a Projector, Stereo and an expansive covered patio. This suite is all about sharing good times with family and friends! It features a large covered veranda with hammocks, loungers, gas grill and an outdoor dining set for 6. Inside you'll find a fine 6 person dining set, expansive living room/game room with 1/2 bath, full kitchen with all appliances and granite counters, even a wine chiller! The 2 Queen bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. Without a doubt, this is where your group will spend most of it's time together and it's got what you need.

The Beach Suite, 2BR/1Bath - The Beach Suite is the ground level of Turtle Casa and provides our most economical accommodations. It is smaller in size than the Gaming/Penthouse levels as it shares it's floor space with the 2 car garage. But it still provides 2 good size bedrooms (1 queen/1double), a living room/dining room, full kitchen (half sized fridge) with granite counter tops and a full bathroom. It has a large outdoor seating area just a few steps to the Beach with loungers and hammock.

If you choose to come vacation with us, let us take care of the details so your vacation is smooth and easy. We LOVE helping guests!! We can recommend excellent Concierge services, Drivers, Tours, and a great Chef!!

Awesome Stay at Turtle Casa
We were a group of 10 (two families with three young adult sons and their girlfriends). We rented the whole house and had PLENTY of room. The house was well stocked with beach towels, kitchen items, games, lounge chairs, washer/dryer, kayaks, etc. Marnie was SUPER helpful before and during our stay making sure we understood the immigration forms, providing us with helpful tips on groceries and info about the house, and making sure the house met our expectations upon arrival. The house was very clean and is well maintained. During our stay we booked a fishing charter with Ruthless Roatan (literally next door/shared dock) and had a great trip! Sandy Bay is a bit off of the grid, which was perfect for us as we were anxious to avoid the cruise ship crowds. We rented two cars at the airport and did not have any issues getting around the island. I/we would recommend Turtle Casa to friends!

Amazing stay at the Turtle Casa
My family and I (group of 10) stayed at the Turtle Casa for 8 nights and it was a great stay. the location is right in the sweet spot of Roatan. 10 minutes away from the airport, 10 minutes from West End and 18 minutes to West Bay. the house was cleaned, the check in process was smooth and Marnie was very responsive and helpful. I would highly recommend staying here and we will be rebooking for next years Holiday season

Amazing vacation rental in Roatan...
This property is amazing and was a perfect fit for our party of 11. Communication with Marnie was great and her recommendations were spot on. We used Sandy Bay Divers for all our diving excursions, Ruthless Charters for a deep sea fishing trip and chef Jennie to cook our catch. The house offers privacy away from the busy West End tourist area but is only a short drive away for when you want those activities. I highly recommend this house for your Roatan vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Marnie Paffenroth

Host profile image
As a five-star host I can honestly say that I love making our guests happy! I love going above and beyond to help guests feel comfortable and confident, not only in my properties, but also in an area they are visiting. I love recommending places and activities I've found to be exceptional, and I love when guests find my homes a "Small Slice of Heaven on Earth".

As the Managing Owner, I work closely with Mark and Katie Waller, original owners of Turtle Casa (and great Partners), my husband Scott, a pilot with AA (which makes flying back and forth easy) and our awesome Property Manager, Johney. We are all here to make your time on Roatan truly exceptional!

Why they chose this property

We chose Roatan because of the Islands undeveloped natural beauty and value in a Caribbean Island destination. Unlike so many tropical places, Roatan still has a wonderfully authentic Island feel. We specifically chose Turtle's Casa's location because it's quiet and away from the hussle and bussle of the tourist areas.

And there's plenty to do right at the house. Our Dive partner will pick you up for diving right from the dock. Our next door neighbor runs a Deep Sea/Fly Fishing/Island Excursion business which is also based from our dock. The sea kayaking and snorkeling right in front of the house is some of the best to be found on the island with the reef just offshore.

There are beautiful beaches on Roatan that you can go to and not see another soul for hours. There is also the great commercial districts with great restaurants, beautiful beaches and lots of activities. We also Love that the Island is mountainous and covered with tropical rainforest.

Roatan is an Island experience that you'll want to come back for again and again. There's just so much to see and do!

What makes this property unique

Turtle Casa makes you feel like you're on a luxury yacht when you're on the large covered decks or in the living areas of the home. The wall of windows facing the Ocean bring the spectacular view and sunsets right into your living room. It is truly a spectacular experience to swing in the hammocks in the early morning hours or during sunset, listening to the ocean and feeling the breeze. And you'll be glad to have the quiet Turtle Casa provides being located in a small local neighborhood away from the tourist frenzy.
