Honduras Resorts
Anthony’s Key Resort is one of Caribbean’s most beloved resorts. It is located in the Bay Islands, next to spectacular reefs and offers a range of activities for all the members of the family. Its famous dolphin interaction program is a favorite with adults and children alike. There are 56 bungalows constructed of wood and featuring hardwood floors, private bathrooms, safes and hairdryers. Choose between air-conditioned or breeze-cooled rooms and between hillside or oceanfront location. All cabanas are fully screened. While television, phone and internet are available at the resort, you will not find these distractions in your bungalow. Enjoy the lush gardens, the white sandy beaches, and the clear warm water.
Anthony’s dive shop sports a PADI Gold Palm 5-Star rating and offers dive courses from beginner to advanced. The modern fleet of ten dive boats is ready to whisk you away to the barrier reef, and you can even introduce the kids to scuba with Junior Scuba Certification from age ten and up. Summer camps at the resort introduce younger children to snorkeling, older ones to scuba diving – and everyone interacts with dolphins. Other activities include kayaking, horseback riding, and visits to the mainland Mayan ruins.
CocoView Resort, a favorite Caribbean dive spot, is located on Roatán Island, the largest of the Bay Islands. There are 26 rooms built right on the water’s edge or directly over the shallows. Four over-the-water bungalows are located in two duplexes with a wooden walkway to the shore. The bungalows offer either a king-size bed or two double beds. Twelve cabanas are also over the water, in three separate buildings. These have a queen-size bed or two double beds. Ten oceanfront rooms, six upstairs and four downstairs, face the ocean. Choose between a king-size bed or two double beds. All rooms are air-conditioned and upon request, equipped with a coffee maker, mini refrigerator or an alarm clock. Enjoy the privacy of your own oceanfront porch, balcony or deck, many come with a hammock – and all with beautiful ocean views.
Activities at the resort include scuba diving, snorkeling, kayaking, and lazing around in the sun. If you feel you must, there’s a fitness center with a full set of equipment. A spa offers massages and beauty treatments. Every day, a different local artist arrives with handmade crafts for sale, and there’s a weekly music night with a local band. The resort also arranges trips to the mainland for Mayan ruins, zipline rides and other excursion. CocoView’s diving starts right at the house reef with CocoView Wall, Newman’s Wall and the purpose-sunk wreck of Prince Albert. This is also a fantastic snorkeling location. The four 50-foot dive boats take you further sites, snorkelers are welcome onboard.
