Let's face it.. we're in Honduras... there's not a lot of regulations, laws nor systems in place to safeguard the consumer. You're pretty much on your own, so to speak... and you must be very careful when dealing with businesses, agencies and individuals "offering" great deals on products of services. But then again.. THAT is what drew a lot of us to the Islands.... it's kind of "the wild west" here sometimes... but that all adds to the fun of Paradise!! That being said, thanks to the power of the internet, you can choose wisely, do your due diligence and investigate thoroughly BEFORE you commit. Choosing a REALTOR® here on Roatan is no different.... do your homework when choosing someone to represent you!!

For those of you who have been to Roatan, fighting the sand flies (noseeums) seems like a never-ending problem… until you've been here a while and "climatize"… meaning either your body builds up an immunity, or they just leave you alone for some "fresh blood" from other tourists. And just when you've thought you can't possibly don anymore DEET…. in comes Bill Williams -- a North Carolina businessman who's environmentally-friendly, NON-DEET insect repellent is taking the island by storm! Manufactured right here on Roatan, William's Blue Ocean product is by far the best solution I've seen to date! More information can be found at www.blueoceanoil.com

Well you could almost set your clock to it this year… July came in and so did the light rains… nothing to much yet.. but typically, July brings in some thunder and lightning to the islands… and the little rain we've been receiving is much needed and welcomed!!
