Lila Jawfish Strandhaus auf privaten, weißen Sandstrand vor Erstaunlich Reef!

Das Strandhaus ist nicht groß, hat aber eine beträchtliche offene Grundriss, die perfekt für ein Paar auf einer romantischen Insel Wochenende ist. An einem privaten Strand voll mit Kokoslagerflächen und einer vorherrschenden östlichen Passatwind, der Lila Jawfish Beach House wurde zum besten Ferienhaus für Paare von zahlreichen Gästen auf anderen Ferien Websites aufgerufen. Das Haus wurde kürzlich renoviert und gut-renoviert und ist wie neu. Die Küche, Essecke, Sitz / Lesebereich und Schlafbereich sind alle gut bei einzelnen Zähler, einem honduranischen Hartholz benutzerdefinierte Bücherregal und einem Schrank definiert. Die Küche verfügt über alle neuen Geräte aus Edelstahl (keine Spülmaschine obwohl) und eine versunkene tiefe Wanne auf einem einzigartigen Penny Halbinsel Arbeitsplatte. Es gibt 20 Meter von 4 Meter hohen Fenstern auf der Front und Seiten des Hauses (15 Fuß von ihnen blicken direkt auf den Strand auf das Karibische Meer und die Berge im Hintergrund). Es ist wirklich erstaunlich, zu sehen.


Es gibt eine neue Plattform mit einer schwingenden Sofa, wo ein paar können beobachten, wie die winzigen Wellen sanft brechen am Strand (der Nordseite der Insel hat die größere Wellen. Das Haus liegt auf einem seltenen befindet (für Utila, da es nicht unglaublich Sand am Ufer) Strecke von weißen Sandstrand in der Schnorcheln Hotspot Nachbarschaft von Blue Bayou, die sich vor der mesoamerikanischen Riff erstreckt. Die Gebirgskette Cordillera Nombre de Dios erhebt sich in der Ferne vom Festland und an den meisten Tagen haben Sie einen tollen Blick auf die Berggipfel auf die Karibik, auch wenn sie mehr als 20 Meilen entfernt. Eine schnelle Suche von Google Map Satelliten wird Ihnen zeigen, warum wir denken, Blue Bayou ist die absolute beste Gegend zum Schnorcheln oder Strandtauchen für den Urlaub für alle Gäste zur Verfügung. Das Riff in diesem Bereich ist unübertroffen, und befindet sich direkt vor dem Haus. Das einzige, was trennt Sie vom Wasser ist etwa 50 Meter aus weißem Sand und ein paar Palmen. Ein paar von ihnen sind ausgewachsenen Palmen, die Kokosnüsse zu produzieren. Auf der linken Seite des Hauses gibt es nur Mandelbäume, Palmen und Sand. Auf der rechten Seite, die Nachbarschaft von Blue Bayou erstreckt sich über ein paar Häusern (es ist nicht groß überhaupt). Dies ist die beste Nachbarschaft auf Utila für Ferienunterkünfte aufgrund seiner Nähe zu allem, was Sie auf einer Insel Urlaub. Es ist sehr ruhig, aber immer noch nahe genug, um Restaurants oder Bars ohne einen Tuk-Tuk (mototaxi) zu bekommen. Das Haus ist auf einer Sackgasse (eigentlich das Ende der Hauptstraße), wo die Menschen fangen Boote zum Südufer.

Das Haus ist ideal für Leute, die tauchen, schnorcheln, ein Sonnenbad am Strand oder Fliegenfischen möchten. All diese Aktivitäten sind vom privaten Strand vor dem Haus erreichbar. Es ist nur eine kurze 10 Minuten zu Fuß in die Stadt (a Bike ist noch schneller, können Sie sie für weniger als $ 5 pro Tag, wenn Sie sie wöchentlich zu mieten), aber weit genug weg, dass Sie in Ruhe bei einem kühlen Bier oder einem Coco entspannen -loco (nehmen Sie eine Kokosnuss, leeren die Milch, ersetzen Sie mit Rum), ohne dabei viel von allem. Dies ist die Karibik von Hemingway, vor der Kreuzfahrtschiffe und all-inclusive-Resorts, ist Lila Jawfish Strandhaus ein wirkliches Leben Corona-kommerzielle und da wir hier nicht das ganze Jahr über zu sein, sollten Sie bei uns statt zu bleiben.

Quick Little Getaway
What an adorable beach front bungalow! Far enough from the main town to be secluded and private, but close enough that you aren't wasting time driving! the palm tree hammocks just feet from the lapping waters edge were delightful! The outdoor shower was refreshing! The porch swing for morning coffee and evening tea was the best! Loved feeding the sand crabs watermelon and watching them enjoy snacks! It is a bit far to walk... we rented a scooter... so much fun, totally safe! One suggestion.... a tub for rinsing your feet at the stairs so as not to bring in the sand.. other than that it was pure rustic delight!

Great location and view
The place was adorable and the view is amazing! Sunrise comes up right in front of the place. Not being skilled at scooter driving I rented a bicycle and it was quick to get to anything I needed and great places to eat ( Mango Tango a must). Snorkeling could easily be done 5 minutes down the road by the coral reef resort. The public beach is gorgeous and close by. Angel arranged a Tuk Tuk to bring me back and forth from the ferry with no difficulties. I will definitely book this place again when I get a chance to return to the beautiful island! Chris

Perfect Spot
Our 2 week stay on the island started with Angel (Property Manager) meeting us at the ferry with a Tuk-Tuk to deliver us to the property. Angel was very responsive to any questions we had along with advice on things to do. The properties location is ideal! Far enough away from the hustle but close enough to walk into the city center. If you prefer you can catch a Tuk-Tuk right at the property or rent a bike, moped or golf cart. We preferred to walk. The snorkeling infront of the property and to the right is awesome! We would walk down to the Reef Bar and enter the reef there. Free as long as you buy a beer. The food there is very good also. Go to the little bar further down called Blue Bayou as it's full of characters. The property is on white sand and has WONDERFUL views. Especially the sunrises! Don't hesitate to rent this property as it is one of the best. Many locals who found out where we were staying would say "You have the best spot on the island." Thank you Angel for everything.

Great house, location, and people
James (property owner) was very friendly and quick to respond to messages Angel (property manager) was incredibly helpful and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay The house had everything we needed for cooking, snorkeling, and just hanging out. The Blue Bayou neighborhood is far enough away from the busy parts of town to be pretty quiet but close enough to walk or bike to meals and the dive shop. Great snorkeling right off the beach!

Great beach house with excellent snorkeling
My wife and I stayed at the Purple Parrot at the end of August, 2022, we greatly enjoyed out stay. James met us at the ferry (despite us not communicating which ferry we were taking, I thought there was only 1 daily but there are multiple trips), he showed us around town, demonstrated all the ins and outs of the rental property, and was very responsive to all of our questions. The house was a great 1 bedroom/studio house, with its own beach and great coral out front. The snorkeling right in front of the house was the best we got in Honduras. We gave the overall score of 4/5 due to road noise, it was very bright in the morning (bring eye masks!), and we got bit by many bugs (although these problems are not the fault of the property owner). Again, great stay and we would definitely return to this rental again!

House on the Beach
Angel met us at the dock and got us situated with a tuk tuk. He was a bit late to meet us at the house, but eventually came. It would be nice if they provided the wifi password ahead of time to help in these situations. The house itself was nice and clean. Unfortunately, the beach was full of driftwood and trash. This is a problem they have had for a while and they hired someone to try to clean up the beach. The house itself was in good shape, though the toilet lid was broken. The a/c & Internet worked well. The electricity and internet went out during a storm, but quickly came back. Overall, a nice place to stay on utila and the location was far enough from town to feel secluded but close enough to walk to many amenities including a nice beach.

Best Location in Utila
We had a great stay in Utila. Purple Jawfish is as described and the location is close enough to town to walk, utilize a tuk tuk, or rent a golf cart, but also far enough away to feel like you're semi secluded. The beach is beautiful. The house is very comfortable for two. My wife loved it. Highly recommend.

Cozy, convenient and carefree.
This was a well managed, wonderful experience thanks to owner James and manager Angel. James communicated very promptly and cordially. Angel was there at the ferry to take me by tuk tuk to this well equipped cabin on its own beach. Snorkeling was good and I appreciated having gear provided. I didn’t need to rent transportation as I enjoyed the short walks to town (10-15 minutes) and even closer bars and restaurants. A few things I appreciated that I haven’t noticed mentioned in other reviews: small reading selection including guide to reef life, excellent wifi, a well positioned hammock near the water’s edge which Angel gladly hung. He’s a friendly, helpful and unobtrusive asset of this charming cabin which has all you need and then some. Thank you James, I hope to return.

Beach front house, what else can you ask!
Just what I wanted and expected. Beautiful place with all commodities, just the perfect spot away enough from the town noise and close enough from where you want to be. From the insde front windows and Porch of the house you see, seven plus shades of ocean blue for you to admire, awesome ocean breeze, not to mention the coral reef in front of the house ready for you to dive and snorkel. James the host made our stay pleasant and made sure we had everything we needed from start to finish even picking us up at the airport, We felt like home in this beautiful island, We wanted more that even extended one more night and still was not enough. Unforgettable experience two thumbs up!! Five out of five stars.

Wow!
Can't say enough! 'permasmile' Mike (prop mgr) was awesome, attentive, informative, and just an all around nice guy. The house was cozy, clean and we'll stocked.....but the deck steals the show! Adirondack chairs and porch swing overlook the private Sandy Beach. Steps to the warm carribean...Slept like a baby and awoke to that beautiful view! Bring bug spray because sand fleas share the island, and unlike the other residents (friendly is an understatement) they will devour you. We are already planning or next visit, and plan to stay at the purple jawfish😃

Great location!
This rustic little cabin was like a home away from home. Had everything we needed, although more than two bath towels would be nice. Short trip to town and loved sitting out on the beach in the mornings and watching sun rise, waves crash, eagle rays feed. We did not find a bad meal anywhere we ate in Utila, but Mango Tango was pricey, so we only had dinner there once.

What a view!! Great location!
The house is in a great location with your own private beach. Sitting on the porch swing makes you feel like you’re in a corona beer commercial, what an awesome view!! The house is cute inside with upgrades including WIFI. Renting the scooter was a definite bonus. Only a short ride into town but far enough to have peace and quiet. Utila town has lots of great restaurants. James was excellent at communicating with us and he arranged his property manager, Angel, to meet us at the ferry dock and get us safely in a tuk tuk. Angel was very good with communication and even left us a phone to contact him if needed. James was very quick on refunding the deposit. We would definitely stay here again!

Tropical paradise!!!
If you are planning a trip to Utila you need to book the Purple Jawfish. It is the best place on the island to stay. The view of the water from the front porch swing is amazing. It looks just like the pictures. The house is clean and comfortable and is within walking distance of The Blue Bayou Beach Bar where we enjoyed great fish and shrimp tacos. Mike is the property manager and he will meet you at the ferry to give you all the information you need about the house and island. He will rent you a scooter as well as check on you daily. My husband and I have travelled a lot during our 34 years of marriage and this trip was at the top of the list.

Perfect location
The house was well appointed with everything you could need from housewares to a hammock. Instructions for everywhere and everyplace you could need or want to go. The house was a short walk into town but far enough from the hustle of the business area of Utila town. Rent a scooter to make getting into and out of town easy and fast (you can, and we did, rent the owner’s scooter). Mike the property manager met us at the airport and checked on us daily providing us with helpful tips and suggestions throughout the week. One such suggestion was to walk the town area before going there with a scooter so you know what is there and where everything is. The downtown area traffic moves fast and can be difficult to maneuver if you don’t know where you are headed. James, the owner (and Mike) were available at the drop of a line for any questions or issues that came up. Their response time was almost immediate. James provided a bevy of useful information and suggestions before heading to Utila and it was fun checking them off the list of things we did while there. Couldn’t have asked for better communication with an owner and his on site liaison. The hummingbirds are magical and friendly (while sitting on the magnificent porch swing) as are the crabs who live on the side of the house (though they would hide after grabbing the pieces of bread I gave them). The snorkeling right out front of the house was both refreshing and fun. While there is a public beach on the way into town (pretty close to the house) this property has its own. You will not be disappointed. There are bars and restaurants within walking distance in either direction. And within a short walk you can hop on a boat that takes you to Neptune’s for the day. Neptunes has some pretty incredible beaches, snorkeling and great food.

Gorgeous little beach house!
The Purple Jawfish was stunning! Very well maintained, spotlessly clean, and stocked with everything we could have possibly needed for our stay. James, the owner, was amazing as well. He was always happy to answer our questions leading up to the trip and during our stay. He even helped us put together a trip to Sambo Creek when we were staying in the mainland, which was one of the highlights of our trip! Utila is a fun place to be! The people are amazing. We never once felt unsafe and we slept very well. Snorkeling right off the beach in front of the house is beautiful. Then we took a short walk to Coral View and snorkeled to the drop off, which was a whole different level of amazingness! I highly recommend it! James will rent you his scooter and that is a great and oh so fun way to see the island. Make sure to take a trip to Bando Beach Bar - it will quickly become your favorite too. Great food, amazing staff, perfect place to meet some locals and get even more tips about the island. Thanks so much, James, for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We couldn't have asked for anything more. This place truly has it all.

Beautiful, excellent location and super clean!!
Purple Jawfish Beach house is truly an amazing place to rent In Utila. The location is what makes it so great! While it is out of town it is only a short walk or scooter ride in, you have your own private little beach area(rare) and view from the house is postcard perfect! The house comes completely equipped with anything and everything to make your stay comfortable. The screened windows were awesome to let the beautiful breeze come in and we never had to worry about mosquitoes or sand flies coming in. The house is impeccabley clean and has a very cozy warm feeling to it! We had the greatest pleasure of meeting the owner James’s parents who were staying across the road. We were met at the ferry and put into a tuk - tuk which took us to the house. Then shown around and given directions for restaurants and the grocery store. James’s delightful parents were very quick to respond to any of our needs and were very knowledgeable about the island. They went above and beyond to make us very welcome ! We miss LJ and Vinny already!! Thank you James for sharing your piece of heaven with us, we were there to just relax and reconnect. Purple Jawfish beach house did not disappoint , it was more than one could have hoped for!!! We will be back. Moe and Ilona:)

I little slice of heaven
The Purple Jawfish Beach House is a great property. One of the only properties on the Island that will give you your own private beach. We were able to feed eel, rays, crabs and hummingbirds right at the house. And we loved watching the sun rise everyday! James is really great with answering all of your questions concerning not only the house but the Island as well. He is also great with making sure that you are set up to get to the house. Mike is awesome once you get there too. He is very accommodating with everything. He even set up our taxi to the airport the morning we left. He checked in on us every day to make sure we didn't need anything. The minisplit is great to keep the house cool. We did notice that keeping the windows closed kept it cooler in the house at the time of our stay since there wasn't a huge breeze. The sand flies were pretty rough too since the wind wasn't picking up too often but is was okay. The snorkeling was great in front of the house. We even saw a ray and a baby nurse shark. I would stay here again!

Amazing!
Absolutely the most amazing place on the island! Solitude but still close enough to get whatever necessities needed. A little loud on the weekends with noise from The Venue, a close bar. Other than that it's a perfect spot. The pictures on-line are really what you get! Beach front 50 feet from the front porch, nice accommodations in the large open beach front bungalow. If it was for sale, we would purpose without question. James the owner responds within the hour, Mike the on site manager is always available and makes sure every detail goes off without a hitch. Awesomeness all the way around!

Beautiful!
This house is by far the best deal on the island. It's in a superb location to see the sunrise and catch the much needed cool evening breeze! Mike is super helpful and James always answers if you need him. The beach is gorgeous and the house has everything you need. The neighborhood is out of town a little ways so much more private, as well. I highly recommend the purple house!! I'm sure we will be coming back.

Best vacation of my life, best place I've ever stayed (yes I've traveled a lot)
We'd never heard of Utila, I saw it on House Hunters and we just booked it. I looked online for places to stay for two and found Purple Jawfish. First of all, it is one of the few places online that the pics are EXACTLY what it is. It's clean, never saw so much as an ant!! The bed was comfortable and there wasn't one thing we needed that wasn't there. We of course bought some groceries. And we did snorkeling in four different places while there, but right in front of the house was by far the best. We also saw a sting ray right by our beach and several eels we fed. The air conditioner was great and there were several fans. Mike, the property manager was great as well, checking on us EVERY day, but if we weren't there he made sure we could always find him. He had so much great information on things to do and what to see, and left a map at our door first day. We had to fly out and mike made our reservations and ordered taxi ect....so we could relax. A couple weeks before we went, james(property owner) called us and gave us tons of information about the island. The house is out of town enough that we never heard music or anything, and yet could be in town in a few minutes. James also offered to rent us his scooter and it was at house ready for us. We asked if we could buy the house!! Not for sale, but we're planning a trip back in a few months and wouldn't consider renting anywhere else. I am certain it's the cleanest on the island, and the privacy is wonderful. If you are going for a romantic getaway this is the perfect place!!!!

Cute and clean studio with an outstanding view.
The property is located close to town, but far enough away to feel like you are removed from the "hustle and bustle" of the night life. The house was clean and had all the necessary amenities. Being able to snorkel right off your own beach was a real novelty that we took advantage of regularly.

Simply Wonderful!!
If you are planning on going to Utila to relax, unwind and maybe reconnect with a loved one, then Purple Jawfish Beach House is the place for you. It is perfectly situated on a beautiful beach with amazing views and fantastic sunrises (although early in the AM). The house is small, but perfect for 2 people. The location is great as it is far enough away from the hustle/bustle of the heart of Utila to be very quiet, but also close enough where you are just 5 minutes from anything/everything on the island. James (owner) and Mike (property manager) are great and will help you with whatever you need help with. The off-shore snorkeling in front of the house is simply world class. My wife and I are avid snorkelers and have traveled around the world to snorkel and nothing compares to the snorkeling on Utila and Roatan (aside from the Great Barrier Reef of course). What I recommend you do is walk down the road 5 minutes to the Coral View Resort (with your snorkel gear). Leave your sandals on their deck and tell the staff that you will be back shortly to have a few beers. Then swim out from their dock about 50 yards until you hit the drop off. Then snorkel along the drop off back towards the Purple Jawfish House. This is not for the faint of heart as the drop off gets really deep, but the coral is just spectacular and so are all of the fish that you will see (Barracuda, Sting Rays, Eagle Rays, Parrot Fish, Purple Jawfish, etc). The whole trip will take you about 30 minutes, but is well worth the effort (as I did it 4 times in a row one day). Then head back to the Coral View Resort for a few beers and maybe some lunch. Coral View has an amazing dock with spectacular views of the coral reef from the top level. Here are some recommendations: 1. Make sure to rent James's scooter (the island is only 4 miles long, but 4 miles in 88 degree heat can be a long 4 miles and you are on vacation, right)? 2. Breakfast- Go to Charlotte's Café (great lady and fantastic food....she had raspberry juice which I had never had before). 3. Lunch- The Buccaneer, Rehab, The Venue or Coral View. 4.
