Greetings from Roatan. I hope you are all doing well and winter is not being too rough on you.
– Flights to the island
As many who have been here from the U.S. realize Delta, American and United, (Atlanta,
Miami and Houston hubs) all have direct flights to the island. I have recently been asked
about Canadian flights here and yes they are available to both the island of Roatan and the city of LaCeiba. All are direct flights. They fly out of Montreal and Toronto with both these broker sites- http://www.airtransat.ca and www.sunwing.ca Flights to the island are on Mondays and Thursdays. Grab a flight, get out of the cold and snow and check out a whole new world! We speak fluent Canadian here J

This is a commercial strip mall that historically has returned a consistent 8-10% ROI. Right at one of the busiest junctions on the island on the main road http://www.roatanbayisland.com/listing/listing-160-mango-tree-center/
Over 400 feet of road frontage located half way between Coxen Hole and West End makes this a great investment to land bank for future appreciation or to devlope right now. Outstanding location. This is listed at a price that is from 2003. I know because I used to own it personally over 10 years ago! http://www.roatanbayisland.com/listing/listing-158-road-frontage/
Pay special attention to this one. Are you looking for a place in the sun for not a lot of cash? This may be a perfect fit. These units now on the market from some of the original developer investors and on the market at 2001 prices. All but zero out of pocket annual expenses monthly or annually. Put enough in your pocket for a vacation or two, stay in your own place, buy at the bottom of the price and have your own quality built place on the beach? No blackout dates.
