Añoranza's 3 bedroom, oceanfront Villa was designed with 3 levels to give our guest privacy as well as maximize the views.
If you’re looking for a true Caribbean island experience, Añoranza is the place for you. If you are looking for a place like Cabo or Tulum, we’re not the destination for you. Leave your designer bags, shoes, jewelry, and clothes at home. All you need to pack are swimsuits, cover-ups, rash guards and flip flops.
Also, if you are looking for nightlife, we recommend booking in West End or one of the destinations mentioned above. Don’t get us wrong, we love Cabo and Tulum but we don’t come to the east side of Roatán for that experience. There are no restaurants within walking distance but you can kayak to a few restaurants or drive 5 minutes to the villages of Oakridge or Punta Gorda to get authentic Caribbean island food. If you don’t want to leave Añoranza we offer full size kitchens for you to cook or hire our private chef to cook.
TOP FLOOR: There are 2 suites on the top floor that over look the reef and the town of Punta Gorda, to the West. The first suite offers guests a king bed, air-conditioning, Smart TV, ceiling fan, walk-in closet, washer and dryer, safe, en suite bathroom with ceiling fan, two shower heads, two vanities and a soaking tub inside the shower where you can relax and enjoy the view. It also has sliding glass doors that open up to a large balcony, with a ceiling fan. It's a perfect, private, spot to enjoy your morning coffee or sunsets over the reef. The second suite, on the top floor, offers guests a king bed, air-conditioning, Smart TV, ceiling fan, 2 large built-in closets, safe, en suite bathroom with ceiling fan, standing shower with view of the reef, and two vanities. It also has sliding glass doors that opens up to a private balcony.
MIDDLE FLOOR: The middle floor is where you'll more than likely spend most of your time. When you open the main door to the villa, you will be greeted by the view of the reef and the infinity pool. As you step into Añoranza you will be in the outdoor living room. Then, on your right you step into the open concept, air-conditioned, living room and kitchen along with another full bath. High speed fiber optic Wi-Fi throughout. The living room has plenty of comfortable seating and a Smart TV with access to cable channels, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and Disney+ (Hulu can be accessed through Disney+) as well as a DVD player with DVDs. There’s also a Bluetooth receiver that you can connect your phone to and play your music on the 2 speakers inside and 4 speakers outside. The kitchen offers all Bosch appliances including a fridge, dishwasher, and gas stove. If you decide you do not want to cook, we can set up our personal chef, Dalia, for one special meal or your entire stay. There is a reverse osmosis system at the sink for cooking and drinking water. The whole house has a UV water filter so you can drink the water from any faucet in the house. Also, there is a dining table that seats 8. To the right of the kitchen is the bar area with a full size purified icemaker plus a wine and beer fridge. The entire ocean view wall of the living room is sliding glass doors that open completely to take in the Caribbean views. The infinity pool is just steps away creating an indoor/outdoor experience. There’s a large propane gas grill in the outdoor kitchen to cook your fresh caught fish or lobster.
LOWER LEVEL: The lower level of the villa has a private separate entrance suite that is accessed down stairs to the left of the entrance to the middle floor. This suite is the ultimate in privacy and has a large private balcony with two ceiling fans. It also offers guests a king bed, ceiling fan, air conditioning, walk-in closet, safe, coffee maker and shower with view through the room and out to the reef.
The stairway to the water is shared with the guests staying at Casita 1, Casita 2, and/or Casita 3 (if booked) and navigates down a cliff and through the trees. There are 4 landings with benches on the way down where you can stop and take in the view or a sunset. Once you are at the water you will see how clear the water is and can enjoy the sun, sunsets and sea from our tanning deck. Also, you can take one of our 4 complimentary, 2 person, kayaks to explore the reef, mangroves or head over to Punta Gorda to grab a drink or food. We have 2 stand up paddle boards that can be rented for $10 a day each.
Matt and Dalia, your host and concierge before and during your stay can help book anything from excursions, dinners reservations, car rentals, or even a babysitter. Dalia is also our private chef so you can book her for your entire stay or a special meal. Matt or Dalia can meet you at the airport too if you would like for an additional fee.

Once you touch down at the Roatán airport, it’s a ~40-minute, scenic drive from the international airport along the main road that runs the ridge of the island and boasts amazing views of both the south and north shores. All you have to do is use Google Maps on your phone and put in Añoranza Roatán. We strongly recommend renting a SUV. Our host, Matt, can help you book the SUV and we also have a 10% discount code with Avis. He can also help arrange transportation from the airport to Añoranza.
20 minutes into your drive east, you will go through French Harbor, one of the oldest communities in Roatán and a commercial hub of the island. The Black Pearl, an 18-hole Pete Dye designed golf course is located in French Harbor at Pristine Bay Resort. Little French Key, a guest favorite, is a 5-minute boat ride from French Harbor. Also, the hospital, Cemesa, which takes U.S. insurance is located here as well as Eldon's Supermarket and Ace Hardware. We recommend stopping here for groceries and any other supplies you may need before continuing east to Añoranza. Both Eldon's and Ace Hardware take credit cards. There is a smaller grocery store about 5 minutes away from Añoranza but they only take cash and have a very limited supply compared to Eldon's which is similar to an American grocery store.
Añoranza is just east of the Garifuna town of Punta Gorda filled with rich traditions and amazing Garifuna cuisine. Right before you get to Punta Gorda there will be Diamond Rock Road, on your right with signs to Camp Bay Lodge, Paya Bay Resort, Marble Hill Farms, and Diamond Hill and Beach Resort. Take it for about a mile until you see the sign for Punta Blanca. If you see the sign for Marble Hill Farms on your left, you went too far. Once you are in Punta Blanca, continue on Punta Blanca Road until you come to a fork in the road with a sign that reads “Añoranza” and an arrow pointing right. It is a loop and one way so take it to the right and it will loop you around to Añoranza. Please let Matt know when you are getting close to Añoranza
