Nestled
into the verdant hills of Roatan, framed by a curving 1 mile long white
sandy beach, lies Palmetto Bay. This private paradise overlooks the turquoise
waters of Turtleing Bay with exquisite coral reefs gently announced by
the sound of the sea. The Plantation consists of 109 acres where breadfruit,
mangoes, cashew and citrus trees, the beach, warm waters hundreds of species
of carnival colored fish, snorkeling and world renowned diving are yours.

There
is a beach preserve with buildings set back a minimum of 180 feet from
the water. The beach forever will be protected and appear just as it did
when Cristopher Columbus sailed by. At the western side of the property
is a beautiful dock featuring a palapa bar from which you can sip the
local rum, Flor de Cana, enjoy the sunset vistas or launch your own sea
kayak. Nearby are the dive shop, swimming pool, small commisary for incidental
needs and restaurant. To further enhance your eco adventure and life style
at Palmetto Bay, an extensive boardwalk has been built to preserve the
delicate tropical vegetation. |

In
Palmetto Bay you will not find conference centers, gyms, architecture
gone astray from a Caribbean island feeling, crowded lots, or hundreds
of hotel rooms to detract from the natural beauty and atmosphere of old
Roatan. Biking, the 2 minute walk from your villa through the gardens
to the beach, reclining in a hammock in the beach preserve, snorkeling
just off shore or spotting parrots in the bird preserve are the order
of the day. |
