Guest Access

Guests have full access to the entire house except the gym. Access to the gym requires an additional $250 deposit and adherence to the following rules:

• Equipment must be returned to its original position
• Equipment should be wiped down after use
• Weights and dumbbells cannot be left on bars

Electricity and Utilities

Electricity is not included in the rental rate. The rate covers an electricity allowance that accounts for typical usage. The property is equipped with 44 solar panels connected to the grid, which provide this allowance.

Any electricity consumption beyond what the solar panels generate will be charged to the guest. Electricity costs on Roatan are high, so this system ensures fairness by charging only for actual usage rather than including it in the rental price.

A monitoring system tracks electricity consumption and solar output to calculate charges per kilowatt-hour. Guests are responsible for any excess usage.

To conserve energy and avoid additional charges, guests are encouraged to:

• Hang towels to dry instead of using the dryer
• Turn off or raise the air conditioning temperature when not in the house
• Maintain reasonable air conditioning settings rather than very cold temperatures

The property benefits from a near year-round breeze and expansive windows, so many guests find air conditioning unnecessary.

Excessive use of air conditioning (such as running it 24/7 at low temperatures) can result in electricity bills exceeding $500 per week.

Important Notes

• The property is located on an island off the coast of Honduras and may experience occasional power, internet, and water outages beyond the host’s control.
• No refunds will be issued for utility interruptions caused by circumstances outside of the property management’s control.
• Final cleaning is included in the rental rate. Additional cleanings can be arranged for an extra fee.
