This hostel is the best kept secret in Roatan!!! I've stayed at Roatan's Backpackers Hostel, Turtle Beach, Splash Inn and now for my last 1.5 weeks at Hotel Chillies. While the other accommodations we're all lovely I found I had to made sacrifices at each, whereas with Chilies I was living in Hostel luxury for less $$$. Chillies: Wifi: 11/10 - video calls for work, streaming movies in my room at the main house and in a hammock on the deck...... it's UNREAL here... she won't guarantee her wifi but she has 4 different wifi routers on the location and my friends and I have had ZERO issues with it. Room: 7/10 clean, and because of covid I got a 3 bedroom room to my self. The mattress is a little older than some of the other places I stayed but still great for the price. The mattress would be my only small complaint but you get what you pay for. Location: 10/10 On the beach, in West Bay, across from one of the best restaurants/yoga studios/live music spots in Roatan!!! Unreal location. Vibe - 10/10 Hammocks, porch, in house restaurant for breakfast with great food, jungle garden with little cottages in the back (I stayed in the main house but you can rent a individual cottage in the back which we're super nice) Host - 10/10 Michelle and her husband are very kind and accommodating hosts. This is a family ran hostel and they are very laid back and friendly. Dive shop on site - 10/10 Cheap dives if you stay at the hostel $30 Price to stay: 10/10 $25 for single room USD - SUPER reasonable for this area!! Security 10/10 - both a person that stays at the gate and cameras - you feel super safe and your stuff is safe. Laundry service - 10/10 $10 for laundry (this is typical everywhere)

My expectations were met basically with the price I paid and from the description. Beautiful garden, small convenient breakfast/lunch options, dive shop on site, The location couldn't be any better, by the beach, a short walk to all restaurants. Michele was wonderful she came out to greet me with my name right away at my arrival and answered my questions. My only frustration daily was the keylock at my room door, it was a struggle to turn the key to open the door from outside and lock from inside, it was always stuck either direction everytime, I realized why the old key broke easily at the first turn I made, luckily Michele got tge broken key out and saved my day. I stayed at the main house, cold water shower was great refreshing I would not need hot water anyways. Remember to wear earplugs to sleep, upstairs ceiling walk, construction, bird chirping did wake me up early and did not mind, so earplugs are a must. Bug sprays required, bugs could get into the room, without AC the room was humid all the times Michele offered super flexibility for payment options, basically too relaxing, no pressure on when you should pay. After many days, I almost forgot to pay my final dives at check out. Suggested to tally up a bill the night before check out slip under room door. Thanks for the reminder Michele.

We stayed in the main house with shared bathroom. Its a great location, right across from the beach but quiet. Atmosphere is very relaxed, safe, and comfortable. Grocery store next door (can use shared kitchen) and lots of restaurants options nearby. Quality for price is worth it! Nice sized rooms with airflow, clean bathroom and conformable beds. The hotel has a beautiful garden with a feeling of privacy and serenity. Owners are very nice (have a ton of experience being on the island for years) with good recommendations and staff. They have a dive shop attached with nice boat and amazing reefs on the front doorstep, perfect for cooling down on nice sunny days.

If your looking for a major resort, to be treated like a guest, served breakfast in bed, and be treated like a tourist this is not for you! BUT, If your looking for a place to be home away from home, If your looking to feel like part of the family, If your looking to be welcomed with open arms… If your looking to have a great piece of paradise, privacy and meet amazing people, then this is 100% the place for you. I have never been so excited to leave a review. This hotel, is nestled in an amazing jungle garden. The cabins are so cute, and have an amazing home like feel to them. Even with no a/c they are so cool, I had to use a blanket. The staff are so friendly and ready and willing to help any time, even with spider removal ;) This hotel is very fair in price, and Michele is amazing. Always quick to respond with any requests, no matter the time. The grounds are very well kept, clean, and the shared kitchen is well kept as well. The fridge is cleaned regularly, and everything you could need is ready and available. If they do not have it, they know where you can find it.

I had a great stay at Hotel Chillies while I was there for two weeks. The location was perfect, easy to walk around the area. A beautiful garden where you can hear the birds, and it was enjoyable to be able to relax in the hammocks. Nice to have a kitchen to be able to cook. The cleaning lady also changed my bed sheets every few days, which I appreciated. They also gave me an extra blanket when it got cold over a few days. The owner Michelle was very friendly and helpful, but I did find the girl who usually worked on reception wasn’t quite so. It seemed like a huge amount of effort whenever I asked her a question, and she wasn’t very friendly towards me at all. I also found it strange when I was getting ready to check out that she came exactly on the check out time to see why I hadn’t left yet. It was putting my last things into my bag and felt quite rushed when she did that. After checking out I had to wait around a little bit for leaving, and could see that they hadn’t cleaned the room an hour later, so I’m not sure what the rush was? A 10 minute grace period at least would have been nice. Other than that an excellent stay!

Stayed two weeks with my daughter to get Padi certified. Had such a great time booked two more weeks before I left. Super clean and safe. Michelle does a great job with both the dive shop and hotel. Super chill, all quiet at 9 but the bars are right down the street. Was perfect! Miss it already.

I really enjoyed this place. I think it can be the right choice if you prefer lower prices. The bungalows are truly beautiful and the site as well. It has a shared kitchen so you don't have to eat at restaurants the whole trip.

Stayed 6 night in one of the wooden cabins and it was perfect. Really comfortable and had everything I needed. I particularly enjoyed the hammock on the porch and the friendly resident cats. It’s in an excellent location directly across the road from the beach and if you’re planning on diving, checkout Native Sons on the property. They were awesome!

Great budget stay. Clean and tidy. No frills. They do have some nicer suites as well but we choose a pretty budget end and it is a perfect fit, great value. Awesome dive shop on site. Staff is great like family and take great care of you.
