Frequently asked questions

Roatan Island Rentals is a directory of short-term and long-term rental properties across Roatan — villas, condos, cabanas and long-term homes listed directly by the independent hosts and property managers who own them. We are not a booking platform, broker or property manager ourselves.

We cover rentals across West Bay, West End, Sandy Bay, French Harbour, Coxen Hole and the East End (including Camp Bay and Oak Ridge), plus general long-term living guidance for the whole island.

Hosts can create a free owner profile with no listings, list one property for $99/month, up to five properties for $299/month, or up to twenty properties for $499/month. Plans are monthly and can be cancelled anytime.

Open the listing and use "Contact the host" — your name, dates and message go to that host directly. You can also answer a few questions and be matched with hosts who have availability.

Many renters use a long-term rental as a trial stay before deciding whether to relocate — residency rules, visas and importing belongings are legal and immigration matters, so confirm current requirements with a qualified local attorney.

Hurricane season generally runs June through November, with the Atlantic's higher-risk months typically in late summer and fall — check the National Hurricane Center and your airline close to your travel dates.

Listings are created by the hosts who list them. Roatan Island Rentals does not verify price, availability, condition or legal right to rent — confirm everything directly with the host before booking or signing a lease.
