Property Description
This once popular bar is converted to a unique private home on the beach. The open concept keeps the theme and feel of the bar, with some of the original furnishings, such as the bar facing the kitchen, the original sign, and the large open windows that take advantage of the beautiful location. We’ve added plenty of upgrades and amenities, such as free wi-fi, air-conditioning, a full kitchen with new appliances, a large travertine shower for two, granite counter tops, a separate walk in closet/changing room, access to washer/dryer, a private upper deck for sunbathing, and bali doors that open to allow an unobstructed view of the water. The beach is quiet, and perfect for swimming, snorkeling or scuba diving from the shore.
Property comes with kayaks, and sup boards.
Nestled in the quiet and peaceful area of Sandy Bay, this secluded home is perfect for a romantic getaway, or up to a family of 4, with a fully fenced in private parking area. The studio style layout includes an eating space, a queen bed, plus two sofas that convert to twin size beds.

Incredible Experience
My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Jolly Octopus. The owner communicated with us in advance to answer any questions or concerns. He gave us a contact for transportation from the airport as well as a stop to the local super market. (I advise) The contact was extremely helpful and professional. We took full advantage of what the island offers leaving us completely exhausted after each day. The Jolly Octopus was exactly like the photos. We took full advantage of the rooftop and spent every night watching the sunset which pictures can’t replace the experience. There are water toys for use and it will cool you down if you choose to stay close. JO is tucked away and the locals are friendly and helpful. The neighbors play music, but are respectful at night. There’s a wonderful steakhouse up the way in walking distance. We walked there most nights without disturbance. Bring cash (20’s and 50’s) and use your card when you dine out. There was enough flatware and water is provided at (JO) Many thanks to the owner for the welcoming experience! If you want a close ride to West End, then book this stay!

Amazing view!
Me and my Husband had such a great stay at the Jolly Octopus house! The view is literally worth everything. You are literally 5 steps from the beach. I appreciate the new sliding doors that were installed so you can see out to the ocean. Conrad and Dwayne were amazing hosts. I recommend to book with Conrad 100% if you are visiting the island. I know he has other properties as well in Roatan. Thanks again for the amazing stay!

Nice to be in a neighborhood and not in a tourist trap
We were a short taxi ride away from doing everything we wanted to (we used Sam all week and he really took care of us). The Jolly Octopus was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The private deck was such a pleasure. Dwayne and Conrad were excellent hosts and we will return.

Just what we wanted
The property was fantastic, bed was super comfy. The roof top deck at sunset was incredible. Would stay there again without a doubt.

Fantastic Place!
Beautiful inside and out. Sunsets were unbelievable, especially from the top deck. You are steps from the water. Kitchen was very nice, bed was comfortable and the views amazing. Owner Conrad was great and property manager Dwyne was wonderful. What an incredible place on an incredible island. Thank you for the memories!

Charming Beach House Great for Couples
Property was very clean. Roof top deck was awesome for viewing sunsets. Not too far from nice beaches and other tourist attractions. I would definitely go again. The houses behind the rental were not in good shape, but the people were all very nice. The beach in front of the house was not for swimming, but the reef about 200 yards out had great snorkeling and there were often dive boats out there. The view from house was great, but to view the beach you had to open the sliding solid wood door which made the house hot so unless you wanted to forgo a cool house you had no view when door was closed. Not having a good view of the beach from the inside unless door was open was very disappointing. .

Great name and great place
I very much enjoyed my stay on Roatan Island and this property went a long way in making it memorable. For starters, Dewayne, the property manager, was courteous and professional; always responding promptly to the various issues that came up. It was much appreciated when he followed me to the airport in case any issues came up with my rental car (I deemed it a necessary precaution seeing as how I didn't have phone service).
A great renovation job and top notch cleanliness made the place as comfortable as could be. And the rooftop sundeck (with ocean view, of course) is a phenomenal tranquil escape. One thing about the location is that it's about 5 miles from the
main tourist drag, where, from what I could tell, many of the restaurants and dive shops are located. Now if you plan on doing a substantial amount of driving on Roatan and you have that Western sensibility of always being on well-paved roads, you're in for a bit of an adjustment phase. The main island road
is under construction in a few stretches and in others you really have to proceed cautiously.
Now while the property is on a tranquil, beachfront lot, the access road at the rear is not so much of a road as it is a very
bumpy passage way. If you're into off-roading you'll be in your element. But who knows, once you get used to this condition, you may find it lends to the place a certain charm. Seeing as how this place used to be a bar I can only hope intoxicated patrons chose to sleep on the beach.

Quiet Time in Roatan
We enjoyed our stay at Jolly Octopus.
It was away from the tourist areas and allowed us to choose when we wanted to get into the busier scene.
The cottage was stocked with all our cooking needs which was great for our hangout nights. Plenty of towels, both beach and shower for both of us.
We had some issues with bugs when we walked around outside. You will need to purchase bug spray for sure (at least in July when we visited).
The owner and manager were very communicative and responsive as advertised!
