Isla de Utila House | Sandy Bay Beachfront House in Diver's Paradise, Views, Deck.

3 Bedroom House in Isla de Utila, Utila

The Sandy Bay Beach-front House is a beautiful 'island-style' private residence with the upper level being just under 2000 SF of open floor plan and 90 ft of beach front. PLEASE NOTE: There is also an apartment below that can be added for larger parties to accommodate up to 8. This quality built home features a large gathering room in the middle with vaulted ceilings and mahogany floors. The modern kitchen with breakfast bar opens to the spacious living room surrounded by windows on all sides! You'll be hard pressed to find a better value in Utila or the Caribbean.

On both sides of the house are identical bedrooms with 2 twin beds that can be converted to a King size bed upon your request to provide you with more options and comfort. Each bedroom has a private, full bath and double french doors leading to the main deck views. The home is great for 2 couples and the kids can sleep on the queen sleeper sofa, or for more privacy, rent the downstairs apartment. This fully furnished home features a wrap around deck that's great for viewing the sunsets over the rear Oyster Bay Lagoon on one side and sunrise over Utila Bay and the peaks of mainland Honduras on the other. To give you a better visual idea of the layout of the home, we've provided a sketch of the home's floor plan.

Below the main house is a separate 300 SF 1 bdrm/1 bath apartment facing the front beach and water. The apartment is rented separately for $55/night to include all utilities and taxes, and has a full bed, private bath, a full kitchen, sitting area, french doors leading to the front beach and lot's of windows to catch the breezes. There is also a large bodega that stores the mountain bikes and washer/dryer.

The landscaped grounds are full of local flowers, colorful plants, palm & banana trees with a combination of soft grass and Bay Island beach sand. The property is beautifully maintained by Angelito and his family, home caretaker for 10 years.

The Sandy Bay Beach House is positioned on the leeward or south side of Utila Island. Utila is the smallest, most westerly and one of three of the Bay Islands just off the coast of Honduras (Just East of Belize & South of Key West). Utila is a low key paradise off the touristy path that is quickly becoming the meeting place for divers from all over the world searching for the next “secret” destination.This diving destination is routinely voted as the best value in the Caribbean.

Our house is located on a peninsula in Sandy Bay. Our home probably has the best location for catching most of the year’s enjoyable trade winds that keep you cool and the bugs away. We are just a 5 min bike ride west of Utila Town; however, we are just far enough away from the hustle & bustle of the main tourist areas. A mile ride will bring you to the beginning of town, built in charming Key West style along the harbor. You’ll ride past the many dive shops, restaurants, grocery stores, bars, hotels and Utilians going about they’re daily routines.

The home’s wrap around deck provides spectacular views of the bay, mountains of the mainland, town, reef system and lagoon. Snorkel from the front door to great reefs less than 300 yards in front of the house. It’s not uncommon to see dolphin, eagle rays and bonefish from the deck. Our home is virtually sitting on top of technicolor coral reefs & 20 coconut throws away from the famous Laguna Beach Resort.

The home comes completely furnished and has just been updated from top to bottom. Just about everything in the entire house is brand new from the major & minor appliances down to the tableware and bedding. We’ve tried to provide everything you’ll need to have a fun & worry-free vacation. If you’re concerned about what to bring, check out our list in the frequently asked questions section.

Summary: We stayed 6 days, the location of the house is perfect, is a very quiet and nice neighborhood, the house is located 15-20 minutes walking from the town of the island or 5 minutes by mototaxi, the house is a great waterfront house, the views from the deck are spectacular, we enjoyed the sunrises and sunsets, that was one of my favorite parts, and not to mention everything we were able to do from the front of the house, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and sea canoeing, we had everything we needed, Angel the homecaretaker provided us with wood to make a campfire He helped us a lot and took care of us providing with everything we needed to be comfortable, but the only drawback was that our bedroom and bathroom had a sewage odor From the septic tank,We told Angel about it, He try to help and it work for 2 days and than the odor cameback again. Also the AC from our bedroom was not working but thanks that Angel brought big fans We could sleep with no problem, but it could have been much better with AC. The AC from the other bedroom was working fine. But despite the few negatives this was a great stayed, We enjoy it so much,We definitely plan to come back. I hope the few negative things that I mention can be fix by the time when i come again. Thanks Ely, and Angel. We had a great time.
