About this property

!Romantic Getaway Or Small Family Fun Time! Hill View Cabins.

This charming water access only, newly built 1 bedroom "Flamingo Cabin" offers beautiful views of Jones Ville harbor. Situated right over the water, it is over 800 Sq feet of living space. When you step out on the deck you will never want to leave.
This cabin is located on 6 acres of a beautifully manicured point. You can jump from your own private dock into the water or maybe you would like to go kayaking through the mangroves, that were used by pirates, or take the boat out and have a look at the island from the water side.

The gentle ocean breeze keeps the cabin cool. The cabin has an open kitchen for dining and the living room is complete with TV and Internet . The Flamingo cabin is tastefully decorated with a king size bed and air conditioning unit to make your stay comfortable, which makes it perfect for a small family or a couple.
Large private front deck with unique wooden furniture that you can relax in.
A perfect place to spend your mornings with a book or afternoon and evenings with your favorite ice cold beverage or coffee. The only traffic that you will see is the boats as they sail or motor by. This is a water access only property but just minutes away from wherever you wish to go, its located close to the public dock. The less than 1 minute boat ride offers a wonderful view of the property as it welcomes you.
Some of our unique local restaurants, like Hole in the wall, Trico's Marina, On The Rocks are just across from the cabin also Mcnab's Place is located just a minute away. also just minutes away we have the community of Oak Ridge, where you find BJ's Back yard, where all expats gather for a fun music filled Friday evening also Happy Landing, Save Center grocery store, they are all accessible by water.

There is a lot for you to enjoy by your self if you like, you can take the kayaks and explore the mangroves on your own, you can enjoy the beautiful crystal waters as you swim in the creek, you can go snorkeling. The reef is just in front of the cabin and If you like fishing and snorkeling or would like to do any activity I can help you make it happen. A local grocery stores just minutes away from your cabin, anything you may need can be found at one or the other.
Upon arrival you will be welcomed at the air port. on our way to your relaxing vacation cabin we will make a stop to Eldon's super market.

While on your vacation at "Hill View Cabins" I want to help you meet whatever need you may have, and help you feel right at home. Help me fill my calendar by contacting the owner.

Greatest time with the best host!

Loved every minute of this stay. Rosina is the greatest host ever made us feel like we knew her our whole lives. Her place is great it was everything we wanted and more. It's water access only but you can rent a boat and anywhere you want to go other than on the water Rosina will accommodate. She directed us to all the fishing, diving, etc guides for the best local prices. She is the epitome of the best the island has to offer. 10 stars will definitely be back to stay with her!

The property is right on the water. It’s close to my fiancé’s family home, so super convenient. Just a quick boat ride over. Property owner was super accommodating, and so very nice. Rental is clean and equipped with all you could need. Island living in it’s truest form. I visit Roatan every year. I will definitely be staying here again

Can’t say enough about Rosina and Sonny. They are incredible hosts. This cabin was very comfortable & had everything we needed. We rented a small boat from our hosts and loved using it to get around the area. Rosina took us on a little tour of the East End including Beautiful Camp Bay Beach and the town of Punta Gordy. This was a great way to see the beautiful coast and the little towns. We snorkelled right out front at Calvin’s Crack and saw our first Spotted Eagle Ray. We loved riding through the mangroves and snorkelling where the ocean comes in to meet them. We were fortunate to be there during a full moon and loved seeing it shinning on the water. There are lots of little restaurants around but our favourite was On The Rocks! Great food, great service and a baby monkey to play with while waiting for your food. We highly recommend renting this cabin.

Quiet, fantastic views

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay with Ms Rosina and Mr Sonny. The breezes were fantastic. We loved visiting their monkeys and parrots and viewing all the plants and flowers. Ms Rosina brought me medicine when I was a bit sick. Mr Sonny brought us bananas and a papaya from their trees. They were the best hosts we have ever had. Nice that they live right there. We also enjoyed visiting BJ’s for music and Trico’s had great food and very friendly people also. Would definitely visit again. Would not worry about renting a car or boat. Many boat taxi’s and Ms Rosina will take you to the grocery one a week. She also does tours. Thanks for a great stay!

A month in paradise

From the very begining to the very end, Rosina took care of us like we were part of her treasured family. Rosina greeted us at the airport and took us to buy groceries. She then took us to Jonesville and took us in a small boat to Flamingo, we could see it from across the way. The views of this property and from this property are amazing. Each morning we sipped our coffee and looked at the sailboats and saw the small community come to life and start the day. Rosina recommened places she thought we should visit and see. We rented a boat from her and were able to head out when we wanted to. My husband loves to fish and was overjoyed to catch fish right from our front deck. We saw beautiful lion fish right next to the lower deck, where do you get to do that! We enjoyed both the entertainment and the food at Trico. We have traveled a lot and we have never felt the same about any other place. We loved it here and are already planning our return trip.

Quiet, relaxing Beautiful view sitting on your private deck overlooking the bay. You can watch spotted rays, brown rays, clown fish, barracuda, tarpon and other colorful fish swimming right below. Kayaking throughout the bay and down the mangroves. Many restaurants to kayak to or go to with your own optional boat. Very friendly and helpful hosts Sonny and Rosina.

The house was large and clean and it was a pleasant place to spend a week. However it was very hard to find as it is water access only and the parking spot for your vehicle is at a private home. There are kayaks which can be used for free or you can rent a motorboat. Have them pick you up and plan to rent the boat, doing this will start your vacation off with much less frustration.

A great time in paradise!

From the moment we arrived at the airport Rosina and Sonny made us feel welcomed and comfortable! Their property is in a beautiful private spot with incredible sunrise and sunset views to watch from the hammock on the front porch. The flamingo cabin is stocked with everything from cooking ware to towels, shampoo, and laundry detergent. We slept like babies in the king size bed with ocean breeze blowing through the windows. Jonesville is so much fun to explore by boat. With easy access to the mangrove tunnels, awesome snorkeling, and fishing you can’t beat the east end! We loved going over to Trico Bar and Hole in The Wall for dinner and drinks! Rosina took us on an island tour and it was one of our favorite days in Roatan. She and Sonny are so friendly and have so much love for the island to share with their guests. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a relaxing trip to paradise with all the comforts of home. We felt extremely safe and well taken care of. We will definitely be back and look forward to fishing for the big snapper with Sonny!

Very nice comfortable house with every amenity you would need. A wonderful deck overlooking the bay where we could relax and see different fish, lobsters and rays swim below. Great time kayaking and using the motor boat to go through the mangroves, tour the bay and coastline and go to the different restaurants. We even had pizza delivered right to our dock. Sonny and Rosina were great hosts always right there with any needs we had. We enjoyed watching, holding and feeding their many pets: monkeys, parrots, toucans, etc. This is our second time spending time here and we will definitely be back.

A great end to a vacation

My girlfriend and I spent 5 days with Rosina and Sonny. Their accommodations are well appointed. We had everything and more to make our stay enjoyable. Be sure to read the guest book. It is full of things to do and when things happen in the bay. Don't wait until the last day to find out about the pool at Trico's, which by the way is a great place to eat and visit. Rosina is the best. We had a day out in the West End and were able to do all the city things and then get back to the quiet of the bay. I feel rested and rejuvenated and was very sad to go back home. PS Bring bug spray for when the winds calm. Thank you Rosina!

We had a fabulous time with our great friendly informative hosts Sonny and Rosina. We had everything we could possibly want or need in the Flamingo cabin. We enjoyed snorkeling, swimming, and kayaking right out in front of the cabin. We had a great day horseback riding not too far away that Rosina took us too. We enjoyed a couple of days in the motorboat provided traveling around the area and through the mangroves. We will definitely be back!

Delightful stay

I have rented many many places over the last 35 yrs. This place is unique. The Hillview cottages will SLOW you down, take you back, draw you in..... Yet there is still plenty to do. If these are your interests, this property is for you: boating, and exploring by boat, kayaking, swimming, diving, snorkeling, fishing, lounging in a hammock, star gazing, reading on a deck in the sun or shade with gentle ocean breezes. The Hole in the Wall restaurant is just a kayak away, or they will pick you up. MUST NOT MISS. Trico’s restaurant is also in the bay. There are multiple eating options in the bay next to Jonesville. It’s all very easy access by boat. Many have local entertainment afternoons frequented by expats. The owners are always near by to assist with your daily questions. They have a few very well behaved dogs and some interesting caged pets throughout their lovely yard. Our stay was enlightening, and captivating. We will never forget the sounds of the ocean waves lapping under our bed as we drifted off to sleep each night. Thank you so much Sonny and Rosina! Bless Up!

Perfect Getaway!

My husband and I stayed at the Flamingo cabin during Christmas and New Years. The Flamingo cabin lived up to its description and prior reviews. Rosina was always responsive in responding to inquiries regarding the property. Coordinating our arrival, even if a day late (unexpected flight delays resulted in missing connecting flights) with Rosina was easy. In fact, because of the delay in our arrival, we had decided to stay extra days if the property was available. And to our surprise and delight, it was, which allowed us another 5 lovely days on the island and in the cabin. We needed help in figuring out how to get warm and hot water in the shower, which was remediated the first morning by Sonny. Renting one of their small motor boats was the best way to enjoy the surrounding areas. It allowed us the freedom to come and go at our leisure. Availability of all the other water toys, kayaks and snorkeling gear, was fantastic. We took one of Rosina's tours out to West End and West Bay and surrounding towns for the day. That was a great way to see that more tourist part of the island. Rosina and Sonny were always helpful in answering questions and providing suggestions during our stay. The first couple of days we hadn't yet rented the motor boat, but with the ocean at our front door, we had plenty to keep us entertained. We took advantage of the two local restaurants, Hole in the Wall and Trico's, that would come pick us up for dinner and bring us back when we were done. All other places visited were friendly and fun. The local cell phone Rosina provided with pre-programmed numbers, making local calls was easy. The stop by the market on our way to the cabin was thoughtful so we could stock up on needed supplies for meals. My husband enjoyed diving at the Reef House and we both enjoyed snorkeling at various stops during our exploration in the little motor boat. It was a very relaxing holiday and I would not hesitate to stay again should we get back to Roatan and would recommend the cabins to friends and family.

Peaceful Paradise

My wife and I stayed at the Flamingo Cabin for a week. What a wonderful experience. So much so, we booked our next visit before we left. The cabin is located in a secluded bight (what the locals call an inland bay) in the South Central part of the island. The cabin is very clean and has everything you need. Only accessible by boat which really makes the experience fun, romantic, and secluded. Rosina takes care of your every need from the minute you arrive at the airport until she drops you off there at the end of your trip. She brings you to the store on the way to the cabin and helps you settle in. Anything we needed she took care of for us. Below are some of the things you should consider doing while there. 1) Rent a boat from Rosina. It's the best way to get around and explore the area. The price is more than reasonable. 2) Visit the local restaurants/hang outs. Hole in the Wall, Trico's, Reef House, BJ's on Friday night. 3) Do an island tour with Rosina. She knows everything about the island and can customize your tour based on what you want to see and do. There are many things to do such as visiting the more "touristy" west side, or you can go zip lining and visit some of the animal sanctuaries. 3) Book a fishing trip. Although you can catch fish from the dock and take your boat rental and fish on your own, Rosina can hook you up with a professional to take you fishing. Corey Thompson with Roaton Reel Addiction Charters is "Da Man!!" We caught Makeral, Barracuda, Snapper, several species of Jacks, etc.. What a vacation!!! Too much to write in a single review. My wife and I have vacationed all over the North America, Caribbean, Central America, including a wonderful trip to Belize. This is by far our favorite. Thank you Rosina for everything!! It was perfect!!!

Perfect Vacation

We recently stayed at Flamingo cabin for two weeks. It was everything we expected and more. Rosina and family took us in on day one and we immediately felt like being home. I cant say enough about Rosina and the girls and how they looked after us. The Flamingo cabin is located in the perfect spot in Jonesville Bight , fantastic view . We spent our days exploring in the small boat that is available to rent , fishing , snorkeling and swimming . We dove on the other side of the island with Subway Watersports. They are a top notch operation. They have nice dive boats , good safe DM's and took us some excellent dives. It seemed like our two weeks flew by , but we enjoyed every minute of it , especially our time at Flamingo Cabin. Thanks Jones family. See you again. Sean& Linda

Flamingo Cabin is a Secluded Sanctuary

If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing get away, the Flamingo Cabin is a great choice. Endless water views, great local food and drinks, and even snorkeling gear and kayaks to use if you are feeling adventurous. This is about as far as you can get from the cruise crowds. Highly recommend.

Cute and clean!

Rosina picked us up from the airport, took us to the grocery store, and then took us to the property via car, then boat. It was accessible, as it says, by boat only, and that added to our adventure. We were tucked away in a bight, and enjoyed the birding from our porch. The property is well cared for and very comfortable. The family is on site to help with anything you might need. We ate at a local restaurant we reached by boat, and rented their small boat while we were there. My husband and I really enjoyed this peaceful vacation

About the host

Hosted by Rosina Thompson Jones

Rosina and Sonny and their two girls have decided to build a few cabins to share their wonderful property with you.
They were born and raised on Roatan. They live on the property. They have dogs, rabbits, parrots and chickens. With their love of animals you never know what you will find. Sonny loves to fish, he is willing to tell you the local good spots. Rosina keeps the gardens looking wonderful, she will be able to tell you what the names of the plants are.

Why they chose this property

This property is on the quite and very peaceful side of the island. This is a spot where you can relax and watch time go by as you enjoy life

What makes this property unique

The view from the deck is amazing. Come, drink coffee and enjoy the first rays of the morning sun. Looking out over the Caribbean. Later enjoy a dip in the water off your very own dock or maybe go kayaking, snorkeling or boating.
