As I travel around the island I have been making it a point to ask resort managers, desk clerks and scuba shop owners what their bookings look like for the holidays. So far the responses have been “Our Bookings Are Up”. That response is certainly an improvement over the last 10 months.
The dive shop at Palmetto said that they have received enough reservations that they would need two boats during the holidays to handle all their guests. They typically operate with only one boat.
None of the resorts or dive shops I spoke with indicated that they were full for the holidays but that is a distinct possibility since Christmas is still four weeks away and there are always those who procrastinate making their reservations.
Everyone here is excited that the tourists are beginning to return to Roatan. It has been a VERY slow year and having guests on the island will certainly brighten the holidays. Don’t forget that if you are interested in Real Estate here we offer a buyer stays free program, check out the web site for details.
Enjoy Life, Philip
