Thank you for considering staying with us! Roatan offers some of the best snorkeling and diving in the world! We are the new owners of Castaways in Caribe Point. Our new name is Windwood Serenity. Your spacious 2-story, 2 BR, 2BA, waterfront villa with A/C awaits!
When choosing where to spend your vacation, we know you have many options. Knowing what to expect helps you make a good choice, and helps us to make a good impression.
Step out of your Eco-friendly villa and relax! The turquoise sea and countryside are your view. Relax with a soft drink or cocktail at the pool which is steps from your door, or on your private patio or balcony.
Logistically, our entire property consists of the main house where the owners reside with our 3 dogs. The Boathouse (which sleeps 2) (VRBO #3263136), and your villa. Which sleeps up 5 people. PLEASE NOTE, GUESTS AT THE POOL OR YOUR RENTAL ARE STRICTLY PROHIBIITED.
We invite all our guests to enjoy our 30-foot-long swimming pool, sun patio, and covered seating area as well as complimentary use of our kayaks & paddle board.
Because we are small, crowds at the pool are never a problem.
The villa most comfortably sleeps up to 4 people**. The first floor consists of a living area with a double-sized futon, a kitchen/small dining area plus a full bath. The kitchen is fully equipped and includes complimentary starter coffee, tea. You even have a blender and coffee grinder. Additionally, guest often leave things like spices and condiments. If you like, check with us before you arrive. A visit to the supermarket en route is a good idea.
Outdoor dining is an option on your veranda where you have a table and 4 chairs plus 2 full size lounges.
Upstairs there are 2 bedrooms and a full bath. Both bedrooms have queen size beds. The main bedroom also has a small deck where you can enjoy the view, breeze and your favorite beverage.
The south shore is known for lovely breezes, so the ceiling fans throughout the villa keep the accommodations very comfortable however, there are A/C units in each bedroom and a split unit A/C which serves the downstairs area if you prefer. *
The villa is on the first two floors of the 3-story building on the waterside with a private entrance. The property owners' veranda and a small part of their living room are on the floor above.
The water in the bight is clean here on the south shore where the shallow reef attracts a variety of sea life. The breezes are wonderful for coolness and keeping any bugs at bay.
Please plan on bringing reef-friendly sunscreen and/or rash guards. We encourage the use of re-fill water bottles and provide a fresh clean water station inside your villa. Leave no trace and respect the reef and sea life. Please no throwing anything in the water and no touching, standing on, or taking souvenirs from the reef.
Our private dock offers unlimited opportunities! Leisurely snorkel our shallow area of the reef, or kayak to the nearby mangrove tunnels built by the Paypan Indians and used by pirates. Other kayak destinations include nearby restaurants like Trico’s (Jonesville Point Marina), On the Rock, Hole in the Wall, and McNabbs.
Sit-On-Top Kayaks, that normally rent for $50+ a day each on the island, are included free with this rental. Our guests tell us the island's best snorkel is right at the entrance to our bight, where you can snorkel day after day and always see different marine life.
Other options available are arranging for personalized dive services, boat excursions, or catamaran snorkeling trips. Tortuga Diving at Tricos or Reef House offer diving, lessons, or a discovery dive - no certification needed. A local fishing guide or water taxi offer island exploration. Taxi or van service can also be coordinated depending on your destination needs. (Please note, private excursions, water taxis, etc. are not included with the price of your rental.)
Access to dive restaurants and other great activities via water taxi is available right from our dock. Fresh seafood (fish, shrimp, lobster) delivery is another option.
Please note we also maintain a strict quiet time after 10 pm and before 8 am. You are still welcome to enjoy subdued conversation and the fresh ocean breezes during these times. Kindly understand this rule is to insure everyone’s peaceful time early and later.
We are away from the noisy main tourist area and cruise ships, yet only 20 minutes from French Harbour restaurants and shopping. We're just 3 miles from Turquoise Bay and west of Jonesville and Oakridge.
Our property is situated surrounded by woods and has lush tropical flora. Windwood Serenity is an ideal place to relax and revive while getting in touch with nature.
Your privacy will be respected, but as we live on the property, we are available for any questions or issues you may have.
