Excellent place

An amazing place. They have definitely thought of every little detail of the Airbnb in terms of comfort, access and design. We hope to return soon, as it has been one of our best Airbnb experiences. It's worth mentioning that some of us worked during the stay, and the super stable connection reached all the way to the beach. The kitchen is fully equipped, the bedrooms are comfortable, and the bathrooms are spotless. Getting there is quite simple, and the streets are easy to access.

I want to start this review by saying that it is a beautiful house, just like the photos. The beach across the street is private, of course. Large rooms, living room, super nice kitchen, everything is new. I would also like to clarify something important. Before booking the house, I was afraid to do so. I am from Guatemala, so we did not know the place, since we would be traveling from our country. There are small children and teenagers. Although the house seemed beautiful to me at first glance, I am of the opinion that when you go on vacation, you look for a nice and comfortable place. I was afraid because when I read the comments, it said that the road from Tela to San Juan was too difficult, and even worse if you went by sedan. I want to clarify that this is NOT the case. The road is super good. Everything is paved, no dirt road. The house is on the side of the road, and from Tela to San Juan, it's 10 minutes at most. We arrived in a sedan and had no problems. The road is impeccable. I would definitely stay again. Thank you for everything.

This house has become my go to place to stay every year . I feel right at home and augusto always make sure he is available to answer questions.

I honestly don't know where to start, this place completely blew us away. Everything was spotless, beautifully put together, and had this warm, welcoming energy that made it feel like home right away. The space itself is stunning, the kind of place you walk into and immediately feel like you made the right call booking it. But what really took things to the next level was the host. Genuinely one of the most attentive and courteous hosts we've ever had. Any question we had , and we had plenty, was met with a prompt, thoughtful response. He didn't just answer; he went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. That kind of proactive hospitality is rare, and it made such a difference. Tela is already a magical destination. This is absolutely my go-to spot whenever I'm in Tela.

Our stay was spectacular. The house is exactly as described: beautiful, spacious and perfect for family travel. The pool with the beach right in front makes the experience even more amazing. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful at all times, and we really felt that the price is totally in line with what the property offers. As a recommendation for other travelers, I would only suggest bringing repellent for the typical bugs in the area (nothing to do with the house or the host). Also, because of how far it is from the main stores, it is a property where it is convenient to bring absolutely everything you are going to need and travel in a high car if you are traveling and there is a chance of rain. Other than that, everything was perfect. We have nothing more to add, other than a huge thank you and that we hope to return very soon. 100% recommended.

The house is very nice, true to the images they publish. Very comfortable, very spacious living room, nice kitchen with lots of utensils. I loved that the whole house is air-conditioned, you don't suffer from the heat. I liked that the pool was very bright at night and has a very nice porch to relax. I loved that each room has a private bathroom, the guards are very friendly and always helpful. The only thing I didn't like, which I know is not a direct problem with the house, is that the access road to the house is very bad and prior recommendations should be given about that. We barely made it because there was a large stretch of pure mud and the car skidded a lot, which prevented us from leaving the area again to be able to visit other places in Tela 😢. The exit was more complicated because it was raining. So suggestion, if it rains go by 4 x 4 car.

This was a beautiful space! We felt right at home and the views are stunning. The house is fully equipped except for some small items missing in the kitchen (but we’re big cookers so there’s that). While the house and the property is entirely worth it, just know that you will have to go through dirt/mud roads to get there but that is a third world country for you! However, please also note that it had been raining prior to our trip so the dirt roads were in poor condition because of that. My hope is that eventually the roads will be fully paved so we can visit without stressing about the drive there! We will definitely visit again though. My entire family was fascinated by the property and the direct access to the beautiful beach!

There is not other place I would rather to rent than this beautiful house. It feels home to me I will definitely keep renting it out every time I come to visit Honduras.

I think it's a show, it's a very nice house, it has everything as described. I would definitely come back, I felt at home. The fact that there's a sound system in the pool area makes the stay very pleasant if you like to share. The place is beautiful, the beach was beautiful, I would only recommend having soap and shampoo in the bathrooms since there wasn't any, but otherwise, the house is excellent, it's all air-conditioned and everything works very well, we will definitely COME BACK.....

The house is in a somewhat remote area. It is a beautiful house, the rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are very modern. As a suggestion, you could leave some toiletries, change. We are guests who are used to leaving our host's house clean, so it is important to find the supplies to do so. I was a bit hard on our host because of a problem with the light, but he was always respectful. The house is beautiful and in the end we had a very pleasant weekend.

Thanks for everything.

The house is beautiful, it has very comfortable spaces. The guards of the property are cordial and helpful. Augusto is very communicative and attentive. The location is excellent. The property was very clean. We had a few issues and Augusto was able to help out. We appreciated Augusto helping us hire a cleaning lady to help out daily. To improve the experience, we would recommend having more forks and silverwear (we were 10 in total), have bathroom rugs on all bathrooms since the floors are very slippery, and to offer option to guests of beach towels even if it has an extra cost. Overall, my family had a wonderful stay and we look forward to return to this beach house.

The house is beautiful and very comfortable, with impeccable rooms and spacious bathrooms. It really exceeded my expectations, and it's worth it. It has speakers, a grill for roasting meat, 🍖 and above all, the friendliest guards in the world gave 🌍 us delicious 🥥 fresh coconuts. Everything was great 👍 A small part of the road to access San Juan is in poor condition, but the rest was excellent.

The house is exactly as shown in the pictures. The rooms are spacious and comfortable, with completely new beds and furniture in excellent condition. It has anafre for BBQ and it worked great. The pool is spotless, always clean and well maintained. Our stay was a wonderful experience for the whole family; we enjoyed every moment and were totally satisfied. Definitely a highly recommended place! With very friendly security staff and willing to help.

The house was exactly as described, walkable to the beach and a bunch of high end tech stuff ( smart tvs, bose speakers, air fryer, microwave, washer , dryer) 24/7 security, this was a very good perk , made us feel very secure. Will return again soon and very recommended

“Our stay at this Airbnb was just great. The house was immaculately clean, which made us feel very comfortable from the moment we were. The host was incredibly flexible and attentive, always responding quickly to any questions. We are really welcome and satisfied with our choice. What we liked the most was that the place had a 24 hour security guard, which gave us great peace of mind during our stay. We would certainly recommend this place to anyone looking for a carefree stay with top service. We will definitely be back!”

Great views and quiet surroundings, made for a great time with family and friends. Navigating to the property itself was difficult at first so I recommend taking a look at the physical map before your journey, as roads are unmarked and homes don't have specific addresses in this area. Locals are very friendy and available to assist! Also, if you can, bring a suv or high-sitting vehicle as roads are dirt roads with potholes (local terrain, not anything to do with the home itself, but will be a very helpful tip). All in all, this is a great and well-priced getaway!

Love the house Love the beach Everything was perfect

We had an excellent week. It's just like the photos! Beautiful house to enjoy the beach. 4 HABÍAS amplías c/u with bathroom, better to bring towels as they only provide 2 x HAB and being a beach destination generally, one passes wetter than dry. Shower soap and shampoo are not included. Kitchen equipped with appliances and if you like coffee, there is a coffee maker but don't forget to bring the filters. Take note how to get to those who do not know: House located after passing the town of San Juan en Tela, just before arriving at Honduras Shore Plantation. The "best" access is entering through the city of Tela, by the back of the airstrip. The street is not paved and in rainy weather (as it is now in December) it is indispensable to arrive in a 4X4 tall double cart due to the mud and sand, and yet the journey is slow and difficult. Although a tractor passed "fixing" the street during our stay, that arrangement lasts a few days. Once there, you enjoy being away from everything and the beach!

I want to thank augusto for allowing to bring all my family, and to be able to spend quality time with them, it meant a lot. The place was better than I expected, everything was very clean. the house definitely exited my expectations the host was very easy to communicate with and very friendly. You get security 24 hours. Security-guards are very nice and friendly and they’re always there to help you with anything that you need. They’re always available at any time. I highly recommend this place to stay if you want to have a good time with friends and family. I am definitely going to be renting it out next year again. Augusto thanks for everything.

Excellent stay, highly recommended. The beach is in front, the very beautiful house has everything you need and more. We would definitely be back. Excellent location!

Rating: 5/5 My stay at this beachfront Airbnb was nothing short of spectacular. The property is a modern gem, boasting sleek, and plenty of space to relax and unwind. The house is right on the beach, offering stunning ocean views and easy access to the shore. Waking up to the sound of the waves and stepping out onto the sand was a dream. The house is incredibly spacious, with open-plan living areas that are perfect for family gatherings or entertaining friends. There was more than enough room for everyone to spread out and enjoy their own space. The outdoor areas are just as impressive, with a large deck, comfortable seating, a barbecue grill, and a private pool. The host provided beach towels, chairs, and even some toys for the kids, which made our stay even more enjoyable. He was also very responsive and helpful with any questions we had. This stay exceeded our expectations in every way. We can’t wait to go back!

The house was very nice and the backyard views were amazing, the only problem was the house didn’t seem like it was cleaned, the pool was cloudy which are signs of shock, the directions weren’t very well explained. We were going to bbq one night and noticed the propane tank was out. We reached out to the host and we were given contact information to get it refilled but none of the places we were directed to had any propane. There was hardly and cookware no paper towels, no trash bags. We did have armed security 24hrs. I think the selling point it the views and the beach being so close. They need to improve the service

Host Response

Dear Denialing, As for your review, I find it very disproportionate and unfair. First of all, regarding the pool, we currently have bad weather in Tela, so it is normal for it to fill with leaves quickly. However, it was cleaned within minutes of your arrival at the accommodation. Second, regarding the issue of gas, paper towels, and cooking utensils. The house is equipped with all the BASICS, designed to be a vacation home and not a permanent residence, but we will see what additional utensils we can add to the kitchen. The propane gas in this case was used by the previous guests who left the same day, and unfortunately the SURROUNDING AREA, which is completely beyond my control, does not lend itself to easily obtaining gas. Likewise, the gas cylinder is not included with the accommodation, and the listing recommends that each guest bring their own. Thirdly, regarding cleanliness, the maintenance staff is instructed to send me a video of how they are leaving the house prior to each guest's check-in. And finally, the "boring surroundings" is a completely out of place and unfair comment. What I offer is my accommodation so that you can have a comfortable beachfront stay. It is very much beyond my control or capabilities if the surroundings in Tela, or more specifically in the community of San Juan, seem boring to you. Which has nothing to do with my house. Again, thank you for your stay.

Pros: Beautiful home and a great location. Cons: Lack of customer service. Summary: Summary: The property is a lovely beach house with a pool. Upon arrival, we were advised by the guard to be mindful of our surroundings and to keep things organized (though the delivery could have been more welcoming). We arranged to stay in a house for eight people and found that we had only been provided with one bath towel per bathroom and three extras for the pool, making a total of seven towels. After reaching out to the host to request more towels, we were informed that they wouldn't be able to provide additional towels until the next day. The following day, we were given four more towels, but unfortunately, they were wet.
