Bungalow

Añoranza Casita - 1 bedroom | 1 Bath

  • 2 Guests
  • 1 Bedroom
  • 1 Bed
  • 1 Bathroom

Añoranza's oceanfront Casita was finished May 2021 and offers a king bed, full kitchen, living room, and 2 person shower, along with an oversized patio and plunge pool. The casita can also be booked with our Villa if you need more room.

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.


The oceanfront Casita is located next to our Villa and offers guests an open concept king size bed, living room, and full kitchen area. The kitchen has a gas range, dishwasher, fridge, coffee maker, blender and all cooking appliances and utensils you should need. It also has a UV filter for the entire Casita and a reverse osmosis system at the kitchen sink so you can drink the water and brush your teeth with it.  The living room has a custom built couch that is also a daybed so you can curl up and watch TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, Disney+ or a movie on our smart TV. Unfortunately, Hulu is not available in Honduras. There is also a Sonos speaker that you can connect your phone to and play music. Make sure you have music downloaded or a Spotify account because Pandora is not available in Honduras.

Just off the king bedroom area is the bathroom with double vanity and a shower with two shower heads. You'll love the view from the shower. There is also a washer and dryer in the closet for guests to use but, we do not provide laundry detergent. Most of our guests just bring a few pods or buy some at the grocery store, Eldon's, on the way to Añoranza.  A few steps from the bed are sliding doors that open to an oversized patio with 2 chairs, a table, and a hammock. But the best part is the plunge pool so you can decide if you will be watching sunsets from the pool, the hammock or a chair.  

The stairway to the water is shared with the guests staying at the Villa (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 and sunsets on our tanning dock. Also, you can take one of our 3 complimentary, 2 person, kayaks to explore the reef, mangroves or head over to Punta Gorda to grab a drink or food.

Location

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 put Punta Blanca, Honduras in Google Maps, on your phone, and it will take you to Añoranza. We strongly recommend renting a SUV. Our host, Robert can help you book the SUV and bring your rental to the airport to pick you up with welcome drinks.

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 new 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 a gravel road, 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 on your left. 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 Robert know when you are getting close to Añoranza.
