This resort is wonderfully low-key! Rooms and bathrooms are very clean, towels refreshed daily, very quiet and the reef is right outside your door! Located a short walk from the main strip, so it's quiet yet convenient. Lovely staff and owners. I'll definitely return!

A large part of the proprty is past glory and needs major renovation. But the house,were we had our rooms is in excellent shape and on the whole the location is superb. Moreover, the Moana dive is excellent. Restaurants, bars etc walking distance (lily pond house, café del Palo, the argentinian Grill, the Sundowner bar and the Beach House..

Ocean view was great, short walk to the main strip, quiet at night! Secure w gates locked at night! Highly recommend this place. Jungle vibes without being in the jungle! Beach chairs on site with stairs into the water right near the reef. Excellent snorkeling right there! Rooms very basic, comfortable bed, great shower, Small dorm style refrigerator. Definitely will stay here again! Only downside for me, I wish there was a room to rent with a kitchenette or an onsite kitchen space to use because we enjoy fishing & cooking some nights.
Beach chair area.. comfortable overlooking the bay.

This was our fourth trip at Half Moon Bay and it was excellent as always! Great snorkeling access, very walkable to the rest of west end, located on a quiet area within west end. Rooms are simple but clean and have everything that we need.

This place was excellent. Private beach with a 2-minute walk to the main street. You could not ask for anything better. Hot water and AC work great. The best is the view from the hammocks. Excellent snorkeling right off the property. Highly recommended!

Excellent return visit

We had an incredible time at the half Moon Bay resort. This is our second time here and we saw more marine life on the reef off our back porch tha we saw on our paid snorkel excursion. We will continue to return, the staff are excellent. The room is simple and it is great for us, they will also arrange rides to/from the airport.

This place is an incredible find! After staying in West Bay for years and wanted to change it up and be near all the restaurants and vibe of West End. This place was my heaven. So, peaceful and quiet. We only shared the property with 6 other guests in mid February! Yet a 5 minute walk to the restaurants/stores. Not fancy, but clean, with hot water, comfortable beds and AC. West Bay is best for snorkeling but I was surprised how great snorkeling was on this side of the bay. Early morning, we saw an eagle ray, and an active white spotted octopus. Plus it was fun to watch people on the "Fun Ship" while relaxing on the beach. And it's a short paddle out to play. My family loves our West Bay hotel but I’ll come here mid week solo to get away from the cruise ship madness!

The rooms are big, clean, A/C worked well. Bathroom is fine and beds are comfortable. Wi-Fi worked well. The hotel does not have a restaurant or other services, but the location is excellent, quiet and right next to the water and it's very easy to go swimming in the protected bay. It's only a short walk to restaurants, grocery store, dive shops and "downtown" West End. The owners are friendly and helpfull.

Halfmoon has been my go to place for several years. Love the authenticity, the calm, the access to the bay directly from the room. I'm very sad that the place is now for sale. It won't be the same anymore.

If you are staying on the island and want a tranquil experience this is the resort for you. Most of the cabins on this property are closed along with the restaurant and bar, which makes for the best experience to enjoy the sounds of nature and the overwhelming feeling that this slice of heaven is all for you. That’s right, why have a crowded noisy restaurant and bar where you want to relax? Here at half moon resort you still have the convenience of a two minute walk to all the restaurants and bars you will ever need and still be able to retreat back to your own secluded, very rustic private hideaway. And best of all the owners Renée and a sister are two of the kindest people you’ll ever meet.

Absolutely loved our stay at Roatan Halfmoon Resor

This place is a hidden gem -- cozy, peaceful, and clearly very well taken care of. The rooms and grounds were spotless, and everything felt welcoming and comfortable. We had hot water, good AC, and everything we needed within a short walking distance, including restaurants and dive shops. The real highlight was the snorkeling -- just steps from the shore, we found vibrant coral and tons of marine life. No need for a boat trip when you have that right out front! Special thanks to Rene, the owner, who went above and beyond to make our stay smooth and enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful and accommodating throughout. Can’t recommend this place more -- would absolutely come back!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. My favorite was the hammock on the balcony overlooking the ocean. I spent a lot of time relaxing there. The treetops surrounding had small flowers that the hummingbirds frequented. The used to have a restaurant but i was not bothered in the least that it was closed. The owners hooked me up with airport transportation for $30 each way and a private guide, Marvin that took me out snorkeling. The snorkeling was amazing! Everything was within walking distance or $5 water taxi. Woody's grocery is about 2 blocks away for easy access. I would return to say here.

Half moon bay property is very bare bones. Do not come here wanting to be pampered. The rooms are very basic. No Tv, just a bed, couple end tables and a small fridge to put your water in. With that being said the Staff was super friendly the grounds were clean, the surrounding were very quite a couple blocks from the main town center. It was nice to decompress and spend time in the Ocean which is just feet away from the resort. The snorkeling was great as the reef you can see from your room and walk right out to it. With that being said Half moon bay was exactly what I was looking for to get away from work and recharge with the beauty of the ocean at my toes.
