About this property

Trade Winds - luxurious Roatan Villa near West Bay

Welcome to Trade Winds, a luxurious beach villa in Roatan, Honduras! This unique home is located in Lawson Rock, the most coveted gated residential community on the island. Trade Winds is a beautiful home nestled on the North Shore of Roatan and only minutes away from the most desired island locations. While it offers proximity to the airport, grocery stores, restaurants, West End diving and nightlife, and West Bay Beach, our home is also tucked away and allows for our guests to avoid crowds when they’re ready to relax and unwind for the day.

When we first started visiting Roatan 20 years ago, we routinely rented in West Bay, renowned all over the world for its white sand beaches. As our family grew and we got to know the island better, we quickly realized that Roatan has so much more to offer!

When you stay at our home, three things will become immediately apparent: luxury, location, and comfort.

You’ll enjoy 7500 square feet of indoor and outdoor living built on two lots. Surrounded by lush tropical gardens and massive “Encino” Live Oak trees that offer a natural and secluded vibe.

Designed by architect, Hal Sorrenti, known for his “pod” style design, each bedroom suite is constructed for privacy. Whether you are there alone or with friends and family, the house is set up for everyone to have their own space.

The expansive main living area offers an open concept floor plan with multiple lounge areas and reading nooks to enjoy your morning cup of coffee or mimosa. The space is free and airy, elegantly designed, yet warm and cozy.

Connected to this main area is the master suite with a king bed, walk-in double waterfall showers, and views to the pool and ocean to wake up to.

Open the sliding glass doors and enter your own personal oasis—an infinity pool with lounge chairs and ocean views, covered patio with outdoor living and dining area, day bed and outdoor kitchen. Large Turkish towels are at your disposal and complete your outdoor experience.

The additional three suites connect to the main house via an indoor/outdoor hallway. Here you will find a large wet-bar and lounge area. The 2nd suite offers a queen bed, comfortable closets, and a private waterfall shower. The 3rd bedroom suite has two full size beds, closet, and private shower. Upstairs above the hallway is the 4th suite with two bunk beds. Each with a full bed on the bottom, a twin bed on top, and a twin trundle bed below. Additionally, the private bath, walk-in closet and 65” TV makes this suite the ultimate “kids’ room”.

Downstairs you’ll find a 5th bedroom—a fully appointed separate apartment with a full bed, private bathroom, and well stocked kitchenette.

Adjacent to the downstairs apartment is the media room. This is our kids’ favorite room! After a fun, adventurous day outdoors, sit back and relax in your own movie theatre. Enjoy a 120” projector screen that allows you to stream movies or shows from your favorite streaming apps.

Along with the luxury that this house has to offer, its location also provides an authentic, local experience, so you truly feel like you live on the island during your stay! Its location allows for you to explore and experience a wide array of activities every day:
- Head to the beautiful white sand beaches of the popular West Bay; its beauty is astonishing!
- Check out West End for the day: enjoy a local beach experience on Half Moon Bay with amazing snorkeling; explore the local shops and enjoy delicious food from “street eats” to high-end restaurants; experience authentic dive shops not associated with the larger hotels where you will meet divers from around the world; shop for local art and jewelry and experience the best bars and nightlife on the island.
- Take a day trip to the east; the location of our home allows easy access to Mid-Island/French Harbor with treasures such as Little French Cay, or the untapped far east side of the island with its beautiful, deserted beaches such as Camp Bay. Day trips can be easily coordinated, and we are happy to provide you with transportation options!
- Spend a few hours at Roatan Island Brewing Co. which is a short, 10-minute drive, and enjoy locally brewed beers and unique bites.
- Treat yourself to high-end golf at Roatan’s Black Pearl Golf course only 25 minutes east.

Or simply stay home in paradise! Be warned, you may not want to leave your luxurious and comfortable home! The weather is not always predictable in any tropical destination, and having this house is a huge plus on rainy days!

Lawson Rock community offers 24-hour security and access to all amenities including pools, fitness center, beach with kayaks, and a local deli. Enjoy picturesque sunsets from the community’s private dock. During the day, you can experience world class snorkeling from the private beach across the street – we’ve seen octopus and sting rays just off the dock!

We have a trusted staff on call, including a driver for hire. The grounds and pool are maintained by our personal gardener that is around to help with any immediate issues.

Roatan is our home away from home and it can be yours too!

Beautiful Home in Roatan
We had a great stay at TradeWinds in Roatan. It was the perfect home for our large two family group of 11. Five bedrooms all with in suite bathrooms. Beautiful home, great decks, infinity soaking pool, BBQ, and amazing views of the jungle and ocean. Located right across the street from Sandy Bay at Lawson Rock this home shares a private dock that is a three minute walk away. There you can swim, snorkel, enjoy the sunset, or have your dive boat pick you up. Community pool is only a one minute walk. Also loved the amazing Deli one minutes walk away. Perfect for breakfast, lunch or brunch.

Spacious home w/ attentive host
Overall, my group of 13 really enjoyed our stay at this property. Michael was very easy to communicate with and put us in touch with a driver to accommodate our large group. The rooms were overall clean and each had their own AC unit and bathroom which was great! The theater room was great place to unwind after a long beach day. Lots of pool towels are provided as well. There's a beach club about a 20 minute walk away from the property as the beach close to the home isn't very clean, lots of algae. There were a few things that lead me to leave a four star rating instead of five, there's no AC in the main kitchen and dining areas. I understand this is island living but that made us all avoid that beautiful space because of the crazy heat. The pool does not have a great filtration system. We used it once on the first day and never again because of how dirty it got. Lastly, the bedroom doors have a funny lock mechanism which could lock you out of the bedroom which I imagine could be very scary if you have small children. I had an issue with one of the door locks but Michael was able to assist promptly with recommended actions and sort it out. The host does provide very clear instructions on this locking issue prior to check in but in my case it happened on accident by swiping by it. Our group believes changing the bedroom lock systems and fixing the AC units in the main kitchen/dining areas would ensure a perfect stay.

Fantastic stay at Trade Winds!!
We had a fantastic experience dealing with Michael and enjoying his beautiful home. Michael quickly answered all of my many questions and had great suggestions about restaurants and experiences and even gave us the name of a safe driver to use while we were there. He definitely went above and beyond as a host. The location is beautiful and the house is very well appointed, from decor to all the essentials one would need on vacation. The kitchen was well stocked and we had no complaints whatsoever. We spent a lot of time enjoying the pool, eating, playing games and relaxing under the spacious outdoor deck. There is a larger community pool which is a short 30 second walk away that we used a few times and we never saw anyone else there so it felt like our own private pool. The beach was lovely and we spent a lot of time walking and exploring (be sure to wear bug spray because there are LOTS of sand fleas!). Snorkeling and watching the sunset at the dock were also favourite past times. We felt extremely safe and thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Trade Winds to anyone travelling to Roatan!

Fabulous Property
My family and our friends, 4 adults and 5 kids (ages 12 and 10) just stayed at this property for our first visit to Roatan and we loved it. The owner was quick to respond to any questions and had wonderful suggestions. The property was gorgeous and extremely comfortable and clean. The layout of the home was perfect for us. The kids LOVED the bunk room and we all loved ending our fun day in the sun with a movie in the media room. The neighborhood is beautiful and if you choose to take a hike through it you just might meet some of the local residents who are extremely kind and full of information. The local deli/store by the beach has amazing breakfast and the best ice coffee I have ever had. And for an island and small deli the wine selection was much better than anticipated. The location of the home is great. You are in a quiet area of the island but just a quick drive to West End, West Bay or French Cay. It doesn't take much time to get around. Plus, you are just a 5-10 minute walk from a fun restaurant named Coconuts. The beach is pretty but you can only enter the water from the dock. There is a lot of sea grass which you are unable to step on because the sea grass is extremely important to the health of the reefs. But if you go to the dock and swim about 10-20 yards west you can snorkel around some great reefs. As a bonus the dock is a beautiful place to experience a sunset and sip on a sundowner. The people of Roatan are extremely kind and welcoming. We felt at home right away. It was wonderful to run into some of the same people peoridically throughout our trip. We will definitely be back and we highly recommend this home.
