Barefoot Cay

Speaking strictly as a diving hotel, this one is above the standard. The food is pretty good and the cottages are nice. There isn’t much of a beach, but the small beach that they do have seems to be full of trash so it was kind of difficult to enjoy it. This is not an all-inclusive resort. We had the full board option, which was kind of limited. The menu is small and gets redundant if you stay there for next extended period. If you don’t go within a specified eating times, they will charge you for the food. The food and drinks are not cheap. I had a sandwich and it didn’t even come with fries. The diving was just OK. Almost all of our dives were within five minutes of the hotel so we didn’t see much. All the dives were pretty much the same I wish we would’ve gone to the other side of the island for more variety. Nitrox was not available which was fine because the process to get Nitrox was cumbersome. Divemasters were just OK, not very friendly. I probably would’ve tipped more if it were not for the nitrox issues and their characters. The whole experience was just OK for me. I probably won’t be back. I think there are cheaper options on the island.

What a beautiful dive vacation! Clean & well maintained, the rooms were very comfortable & convenient. The food was always beautiful, the service great. The dive staff was very professional, knowledgable & helpful.

This is by far the best place I’ve stayed in Roatan. Thank you to your beautiful staff for your incredible energy and help, you all made me feel at home. My compliments to the bar and restaurant because everything was amazing. Special mention to Diana in front desk, Javier and Melissa for your help with everything and every person that I had pleasure of meeting. I’m coming back for sure!!!

We loved Barefoot! Our dive master was amazing. Food was great - regardless of our complex food allergies. We had the two bedroom beach condo that had a full kitchen - the local grocery was great - again no problem with the food allergies. Peaceful and amazing. Could not have been happier!

Barefoot Cay is a hidden gem! We chose Barefoot Cay based on a friend’s recommendation from a previous trip. This was our first visit to Roatán, my husband is an experienced diver, but I am not, so we wanted a place that would work for both of us. The resort is conveniently located just a short drive from the airport, much closer than most other resorts, on the south side of the island. While we took a trip to the West Side, we found it too crowded for our taste, despite its beautiful beach. The onsite restaurant was outstanding, we loved it so much that we ate there every day. Though the units are equipped with small kitchens, we never even considered cooking for ourselves. The staff was incredibly friendly, greeting us by name and always looking for ways to make us feel welcome. We had such a fantastic time that we’re already planning our next trip!
