We were excited for our
vacation, but never did we
imagine that we would enjoy our
stay this much. To say the
service was incredible would be
an understatement. The care and
thought put in by the staff both
before and during our stay was
top notch. Highlights included
incredible snorkeling, a fun
morning on the Black Pearl golf
resort, dinner at Charlie's,
soaking up the sunshine, and
exploring the West End and West
Bay. The staff may be the most
memorable part of our stay. Raul
and Nolvia and Brenda radiated
joy and anticipated every need.
Nolvia's cooking was amazing -
not a single person didn't want
to bring her home with us! Cass
and Meghan were fun, upbeat, and
organized. Thank you for a fun &
fabulous time and all the
memories! -

We're packing for our departure
tomorrow and enjoying our last
evening at Casa Vista
Verde...Nolvia made us another
wonderful dinner, another
memorable meal. She taught us to
make tortillas, can't wait to
give them a try at home! Cass
did a great job staying in touch
and arranging our activities.
Her recommendations were great -
the paddleboard rental idea was
a big hit. Nolvia spoiled us
with her delicious food and good
nature, she made us feel at home
right away. Raul is always ready
to help with boats, driving,
gathering coconuts for Nolvia's
delicious batidos (shakes). The
staff is always friendly, and
even those behind the scenes are
always courteous and pleasant.
We have really enjoyed our stay,
and thank you all for a
wonderful vacation, in a
beautiful house, in an amazing
location. From all of us -

Thank you for sharing your
wonderful villa - we couldn't
imagine a more relaxing holiday.
We all appreciated our special
time here. Highlights - the
view, the snorkeling, the ATVs,
Charlie's for supper, everything
about the villa, and of course
NOLVIA! All the staff were
fabulous - thank you for the
special care - it was better
than home - we don't want to
leave. All our best! S&AM,

What a fantastic Thanksgiving week vacation/Dad’s 82nd Birthday! You can’t beat the location, view, and all the amenities of Vista Verde, except that the best part is the staff – Cass, Raul, Nolvia, and Naptali – always there when you need them to add to the experience. I can’t remember a more wonderful vacation! Thanks to All!

Your home on Roatan is absolutely beautiful. The view in person is even more incredible than it was on the website. Nolvia and Raul are diamonds in the rough. They truly know how to make people feel welcome and special…we loved the island, its food, its people. We felt very safe, safer than we ever felt in Cancun. It is definitely an island we could see ourselves coming back to. LS, USA, Jun 11

Casa Vista Verde was perfect! Extremely comfortable beds and furniture, a full kitchen (amazing blender), salt water pool that didn't dry out my hair, efficient check in / ferry pick up (Cass is great)- all around a great trip! DA, USA, Apr 11

We had a great time staying at Vista Verde! First of all your staff is great - Novia and Raul made such an effort to make sure our stay at the villa was everything we were looking for; they went the extra mile to be accommodating. Cass arranged everything for us and really made our stay relaxing. We all enjoyed getting to know her and hearing her views on the island. We are pretty independent travelers and staying at your villa was quite a change for us - one we decided we could get used to, having meals prepared for us, travel arrangements made etc. I was concerned about not renting a car but we certainly didn't miss it - there was so much to do at the villa, kayaking, fishing, snorkeling and just hanging out enjoying the great views! Cass arranged a mangrove tour, island tours, snorkeling at West Bay, river rafting, and spa day for my daughter and I. You've really taken the time to make sure the villa has everything there for your guests to make it a special vacation. We hope to return to Roatan and Vista Verde. DR, USA, Apr 11

We loved Vista Verde! Cass, Nolvia, and Raul took very good care of us...the snorkeling, rafting, fishing, mangrove tour, island tour, and Hole-in-the-Wall were all adventures. Having meals cooked for us was heaven! Hope we can make it back for another visit! RR, USA, Mar 11

Casa Vista Verde - We couldn't have asked for a more perfect slice of paradise for all eleven of us to relax, rejuvenate, and re-connect for Christmas 2010! You've thought of everything, it all flows together and runs like a well oiled machine. We felt safe and loved! Thanks for everything! TO Family, USA, Dec 10

Cass, she is a keeper! We relied on her a great deal and she never let us down. Your home is sensational and the diving in Roatan equally so. It will be easy to recommend Casa Vista Verde to anyone and we all look forward to returning. All the best and thank-you again. BP, Canada, Nov 10

What a wonderful adventure for 6 carefree Canadians! Cass and the staff were wonderful. Barefoot Divers were fantastic and professional. Subway Diving had all kinds of local flair and a dock pickup. A fantastic dive holiday. Cass always available for our gourmet requests and drives to golf or our favorite bar, Sundowners! The sunrise on the pool deck and stargazing nights will always be remembered…L&CP, Canada, Nov 10

Asa, Meghan, and Staff! Thank you all for everything. From a group of 11 who wanted for nothing and were treated like royalty! Meghan took care of all of us to ensure our vacation was fabulous! The house and all the amenities are spectacular! The views and location of Vista Verde are incredible. The snorkeling, fishing, jet skiing, dolphin and zip line were so much fun-but the evenings of star gazing and spending family time in this exclusive resort will never be forgotten! TH, USA, Jun 10 |

What a week! Loved snorkeling right out at the reef, loved the pampering by Meghan, loved the boat, loved the food, the jet ski, loved everything!...the whole trip was the BEST EVER! You have a great team and a beautiful property to work with! Off the charts wonderful. Loved the people-the whole staff is warm and anticipated every want.

Thank you for making our stay on Roatan such a wonderful experience. The house and amenities were amazing. It seemed as though every detail was considered and every comfort provided for. We really enjoyed the jet ski, the diving, the house, and the pool. Next time we’ll plan on the deep sea fishing! Again, thank you for making our stay on Roatan such a great experience!

All of you made our family's reunion a full and rewarding adventure- the villa is lovely, well appointed, and very welcoming. The location is quiet and near great snorkeling, swimming, sunning, hiking, and kayaking. We explored Roatan, and understand why you chose this island for your venture! Thank You, CF, USA, Apr 10 |

Our stay at Casa Vista Verde was the best!!!! This house is absolutely gorgeous!! The staff were great- always there for us whenever we needed anything!You never have to leave the property if you don't want to. We dove and snorkeled right from the house. The diving was the best we have ever seen!! The view is spectacular...I definitely recommend Casa Vista Verde to people of all ages. We will be returning with our kids next time!!! -K&PH, USA, Mar 10 |

We had a great week at Vista Verde. The water and view from the house is just spectacular. Diving was some of the best we have encountered, we will need to come back again for more dives and to try to see the whale sharks. The ATV tour was much better than expected and we enjoyed meeting some of the locals. Great week with friends, a relaxing and fun-filled trip that we needed. - B&RS, USA, Mar 10 |

Our trip was unbelievable! Swimming with wild dolphins, diving, snorkeling, ATV ride, shopping, we enjoyed every moment!

Fantastic week! Everything equal to or surpassing expectations. Meghan, Gabriela, and Raul keep the place in top order and with great quality of service! Can't imagine that any place on the island would surpass the peace and splendor of Casa Vista Verde. Thanks for sharing...Hope to return again. -TM, USA, Mar 10 |

This place is amazing and has everything... Tranquil is the best way to describe the setting and it feels as if you are in your own private gated resort. The house sits atop a small hill with breathtaking views… The Casa is centrally located and makes touring other parts of the island easy. Having your own beach, boat dock, boat and captain on site and available for fishing, snorkeling, or scuba diving is absolutely a fantastic bonus. This was like staying at a 5-star resort but not having to share it with anyone. Casa Vista Verde is awesome. -JK, USA, Feb 10 |

What a relaxing atmosphere and week! A feeling of home away from home makes you want to come back. Friendliness of the staff and their pleasing personalities was exceptional.

There are so many wonderful things to discover here in our little piece of paradise, so much to experience and enjoy- kayak out to the coral and snorkel, enjoy the cabana, swimming with all the fish, pool, hot tub, and a beautifully designed home. Other than our trip to the west end and ladies spa day, we just wanted to stay put & drink it all in! C&B, USA, Jan 10 |

A family Christmas on the island…wonderful! The house was beautiful, the decorations just enough to remind us of the holiday. The staff welcoming and accommodating.

After a long time searching here on the island, we couldn't find a more perfect place to celebrate the beginning of our new family than Vista Verde. The atmosphere, the five star service and the place itself, made our perfect wedding come true. Thank-you Asa, Meghan and your wonderful staff, for giving us such a professional service. I would recommend your place as the only option on the island to carry on an event as perfect and magical as you did for ours. God Bless you always and thanks again! KM & ALL, Honduras, Oct 09 |

Everything was absolutely perfect! Besides providing the perfect house and view, you also provide us with perfect weather! At 100 ft depth we still had 87 degrees. I can't tell you how great a time the five of us had. The diving was terrific, the weather was beautiful, the house fantastic, and we couldn't have had a better time. Meghan and Gabriella took great care of us. Gabriella is a phenomenal cook! We already started discussing coming back next year. Thank you for sharing your beautiful home! Regards, EC, USA, Sep 09 |

Your home is magnificent and Meghan and Gabriella were most accommodating! We had a fabulous time. It was the most relaxing and fun-filled vacation we've had in a long time-even better than our expectations. If we come back to this island, we know where we'll be staying! Thank you for the great hospitality, delicious food, and fulfilling our every wish. I'd love to come back here with all my family someday. Best of luck to all of you! Warm Regards, BW/USA, Jul 09 |

Thank you so very much for sharing your lovely villa with us! We could not have asked for more....of anything! Asa was so kind to accommodate us on such short notice. Meghan was a delight as well! We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary here and could not have been in a more wonderful place. The "Discover Scuba" dive that Asa set up for us was just fabulous, and Subway was great. Thanks also for the great restaurant recommendations! We will most certainly be back...sooner rather than later! Warmest Regards...-ER, USA, Apr 09 |

What a wonderful time we all had. Whether relaxing by the pool, scuba diving, kayaking, fishing, snorkeling, or exploring the island. The weather could not have been better!! Not a cloud in the sky all week. The house is amazing - we loved that it has all the latest and greatest technology. We really enjoyed listening to music on the deck at night. Of course, Meghan made it all happen - she was the best- and Gabrielle was excellent too! Overall, one of our best vacations ever! All the best... - LB, USA, Apr 09 |

I just want to say thank you once again – we had the most wonderful time…we watched 2 sunrises, and a beautiful sunset almost every night...what a way to spend your time... we loved cooking together in your nice kitchen and you can not get a better setting for dinner than the patio right there at Vista Verde…Thanks again for another perfect week! I smile when I think back on us being there. I think we might have to make it a semi annual event! -DH, USA, Mar 09 (2nd stay) |

Thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us! The views were fabulous and we couldn't ask for more when it comes to amenities! We mostly enjoyed our stay at the pool, did some kayaking, jetskiing, and snorkeling. Meghan and Gabrielle were great! Staying in your home is almost like staying at a full service, all-inclusive resort! We wanted nothing!! We will definitely tell our friends about Casa Vista Verde -LS, USA, Feb 09 |

This villa has it all! From the time we were picked up at the airport to the time we left, everyone was so attentive and friendly. The villa is amazing. The view from the pool or hot tub cannot be described, overlooking miles of coral reefs. This would be a spectacular setting for a wedding! The cook did an exceptional job preparing breakfasts and lunches with a local flair. Our stay was so enjoyable that we forgot work, the New England cold, and our diets. We look forward to returning (or maybe moving in permanently)…we had a remarkable stay at Casa Vista Verde and would recommend it to anyone seeking a quiet getaway with a relaxed atmosphere where your every wish is anticipated. -SD, USA Nov 08 |

The more I think about the week in Roatan, the more I realize what a special memory the time we spent at Casa Vista Verde will always be. Thank you again for your hospitality and for making me feel very special on my birthday! -DH, USA Nov 08 |
