  • Off the beaten track

    Due to its developing infrastructure, Honduras is a largely underestimated country and thus is far less visited than others in Central America, which only adds to its appeal for those looking for something different. Visitors are rewarded with lush landscapes, wild national parks and unique accommodation.

    Off the beaten track
  • Rafting

    Rafting the Cangrejal River near La Ceiba is fantastic. Offering grades II and III, this river is suitable for all levels and rafting through the rainforest with toucans flying over head and the sounds of howler monkeys in the distance just adds to the experience.

  • Snorkelling

    Around Roatan there is some wonderful snorkelling to be had and the calm waters make this an ideal spot for even the most novice of snorkellers. You can arrange organised trips or just hire a snorkel and mask and head off independently.

Accommodation in Honduras: Palmetto Bay Plantation Resort

Our Rating: Medium

Palmetto Bay Plantation Resort

The Bay Islands

The Palmetto Bay Plantation Resort is located near Roatán Island’s French Harbour, slightly off the beaten track in a secluded bay. The 29 wooden Caribbean-style cabañas are extremely spacious and designed more like mini-houses with fully equipped kitchens, huge balconies and a living room.

Each is individually decorated with simple furnishings and set amongst shady palm trees. There is a good restaurant, a small pool and the beach is right on your doorstep. For scuba divers the resort has an onsite dive shop which operates two or three dive boat excursions each day.
