The first resort in Honduras to be included on the Small Luxury Hotel of the World list, this was a La Ceiba institution from the day it opened its doors in 2000.

Upstairs rooms at this midsized hotel are a decent deal.

The bathrooms leave much to be desired - a good cleaning, for starters -… Full Lonely Planet Review ›
