I stayed with hotel chilies as a solo female traveler on a scuba diving trip. I had a wonderful experience! The entire staff was friendly and thoughtful. The room was simple and clean, and the air conditioner worked great on the nights I used it. I was a little nervous traveling alone as it was my first time, but I felt safe and looked after  the entire trip. I  felt comfortable enough to sleep outside on one of the hammocks on a cool night just to enjoy the environment. The location was perfect - right in the middle of everything, and beach access was a few steps away. I loved the little restaurant and the garden vibe of the property. 

I got my advanced open water certification with Native Sons, the on-site dive shop.  All the dive masters were great. I truly feel that I received a top notch education.  I also did several adventure dives which never disappointed. 

I will be sure to recommend Hotel Chilies and Native Sons to anyone planning to visit Roatan .  Thank you all for a lovely experience!

Great Experience!

I stayed at hotel chillies for almost a week and had a great time here. If you’re looking for a hotel surrounded by nature, then this is it. The staff seem to be all locally hired, which I love. The receptionist, Ashanty, thoroughly explained my different options for stay with them, since I decided to book last minute in person. She created a very warm & welcoming environment and gave great recommendations for activities to do as well as places to eat. This was my first time traveling, and she helped in making my trip one I will never forget. They also have delicious food and drinks as part of the front of the hotel and have security during the late hours. I would definitely come back to hotel chillies.

Hotel Chillies — great location & stay and even better staff!

Was recommended this place to stay in West End district and wasn’t disappointed. Beautiful cabins, clean , lovely staff and has best budget breakfast cafe at front of building. Also opposite best bar with lethal cocktails and great live music. Highly recommend

Gorgeous, great value guest house and cabins

I stayed at Hotel Chillies on a recommendation from a friend from March 29-April 6, 2024, as a solo traveller. It was my first time to Roatan. Being inquisitive and a planner, I booked Chillies over email and asked many questions, all of which were answered by Michele, the owner, quickly and thoroughly.

Timely communication is important to me as a traveller, and Michele exceeded my expectations.

I arrived later in the day on Good Friday and Michele gave me my key and, since the office was closed, told me not to worry about the deposit or paperwork and go get dinner. That laid-back, island vibe is EXACTLY what I was hoping for, and that was the last moment I felt like I was travelling on my own – you're not a stranger for long at Chillies.

The staff and people are so friendly, the cabins are on a shared path that encourages saying hello to your neighbours, and the common areas at the tasty and affordable restaurant (Yahongreh) and fantastic Dive Shop (Native Sons) create an old-school hostel atmosphere that encourages conversation and camaraderie that this old backpacker hasn't experienced since the days before cell phones (though wifi is strong throughout).

I immediately felt right at home.

The cabins (I was in #6) are under a canopy of trees, providing plenty of shade, and my cabin was just the right size. It had a great porch with a hammock and chairs for lounging and napping, and a line for drying clothes. Although it had no air conditioning, a strong ceiling fan kept me more than comfortable at night. Hard-working staff change the sheets and tidy things up every day.

The location in West End is fantastic. There's a beach and bars/food across the street, but you're far enough away from the busiest areas of West End to maintain that laid-back feel, though you're just a minute from the action on foot. A grocery store is just a couple doors down for snacks, drinks, etc.

I obtained my PADI Open Water dive certificate with Native Sons Dive Shop, located at the front of Hotel Chillies and under the same ownership (so no need to pay as you go, it all got added to the same tab – very convenient!). To say the experience was incredible is an understatement. My Dive Master Kasey was kind, funny and patient, but wouldn't hesitate to challenge me to get out of my comfort zone and complete aspects of the training that I struggled with. 

She helped me do achieve something I'd always dreamed, and it was such a great experience.

Over three days, I dove four times to obtain my PADI and then did four more recreational dives with Native Sons, with Dive Masters Eddie, Alex and Germaine, and all were fantastic leaders, helping me along as I continued to gain experience. I highly recommend diving with Native Sons, even if you're not staying at Chillies. 

I can't wait until my next trip to Roatan and I'll definitely be staying with my friends at Hotel Chillies next time!

Feel like family at Hotel Chillies

Just returned from my 12th visit to Chillies / Native Sons and can hardly wait for my next visit.  Everything a diver needs is right there - accommodations ranging from hostel-style rooms through private cabins to more upscale suites, a cafe on site for breakfast and lunch, the Mesoamerican reef right outside the door, the Caribbean charm of West End village, a terrific dive shop with competent and friendly instructors/divemasters, and owners and staff who are welcoming and helpful.  A trip to Chillies / Native Sons is always a pleasure.

Diver's Paradise

If you are looking for a place to stay and dive look no further. Hotel Chilies staff will take great care of you, the rooms and simple and clean. The dive shop is out front and a small restaurant Yahongreh is on property serving breakfast and lunch. This is a family run place where you will get to know everyone. Located adjacent to the beach within a 5-10 minute there are multiple restaurants, stores, bars anything you could possibly need while visiting West End. The water taxi is close by as well. Anything you will need the staff would be more than happy to help you with. Do not hesitate to book a stay here.

Great relaxing hotel attached to wonderful dive shop

My partner and I stayed at Hotel Chillies for a week in April 2023, and had a wonderful time. The staff are very kind and helpful, going above and beyond to help us stay comfortable. It was great to have Yahongreh nearby for great food all day, and Native Sons was a great dive shop. The property is right across the street from the beach, near bars, restaurants, and grocery stores. I would absolutely stay there again!

Beautiful Property, Great Location

Chili's hotel is a charming back- packers paradise located in a tropical garden at West End. The 1 and 2 bedroom cabins were built by the owners of native wood. There is access to a community kitchen for the cabins and hostel-type sleeping rooms. I've never experienced any theft, whether in my room or the kitchen.  It's a perfect location for divers as well, with a dive shop on site. (See review Native Sons). My friends and family members stay there whenever we are in Roatan. The hotel staff is honest, efficient, and helpful; they have always met my needs.
Miche, the owner, and Amanda, office manager are readily available with information, connections for taxis and recommendations for tours, restaurants, etc. Groceries, dive shops, fun bars, and good restaurants all within walking distance. It's very affordable.
Yahongreh is a small, open air breakfast spot on site with delicious food. Open from 7-2 serving Honduran and American  style breakfasts. 
In closing, the Jacksons are  lovely hosts! Hotel Chili's is a peefect choice for West End. 


A tropical paradise...

Great place to stay. Went diving with Native Son's Dive Shop which is connected and ate at Yahongreh?, also right next to the Dive Shop. Always felt safe, comfortable bed, plenty of hot water for our cabin, friendly staff. Loved the laid back atmosphere, very relaxing.

Laid Back and Relaxing

I stayed for 11 days and loved every minute of it. The location just across the road from the beach is perfect. I liked that it was a very easy walk to the main town area but far enough away from all the noise. As a solo traveler I chose to stay in one of the private cabins so I would have my own bathroom but access to a shared kitchen (fully stocked with plenty of plates/cups/utensils/cooking utensils but I ate out most of the time). The cabin has no A/C (choose the Mango House if A/C is a must) but I was perfectly comfortable with the ceiling fan and stand fan. It has two beds, toilet/shower/sink, towels/sheets, and a porch with two chairs and a hammock--perfect for the down time just before dinner or in the early morning. The cabins are set behind the main building just up a winding stone path into a very pretty jungle-ly garden area. While you can hear Sundowners a bit across the street if they have live music once that ends (usually around 10pm) it is very quiet and I slept well every night. And no need to head out for brekkie in the morning! They have a little restaurant on the property called Yahongreh, where you can order baleadas, fruit, granola, pancakes, juice, smoothies, etc. (they are open 7a-2p every day except Monday). If you are a diver (like me) Native Sons is on the property and an excellent company to dive with. Just sign up the day before and show up 30 mins before your first dive to get kitted up. I will definitely go back to Roatan and will stay here again!
