I don’t usually write reviews even when I intend to do so. However, this place deserves a review and more. My cousin and I booked a 2 nights stay and ended up staying for 7 nights. I cannot say enough about the hospitality that was extended to us. John is such a great man! He’s always eager to share information and take care of your needs but he’s also a hoot when you catch him in his moments. His wife, Soledad, is an absolute gem! She is so full of love and her smile lights up the room. Her cooking is HEAVENLY! Every meal, every time! On our first night, my cousin and I asked what was for dinner. After our first taste, we never asked again. We just waited to be surprised! The villa is beautifully built and designed. The pictures that are posted certainly don’t do it justice. Waking up in this paradise to the colorful hummingbirds, beautiful bird songs, and the rushing river felt right in every way. We are still exploring Honduras and we have been trying to figure out how to squeeze one more night in with Soledad and John before we leave. If you book here, you will not be disappointed at all! If you are, you can blame it on me. Yes, we loved it that much. Thank you Soledad, John & family for the most amazing week we could have asked for.

I can’t think of one thing that we did not like besides having to leave.

John and Soledad were friendly and attentive hosts. Soledad made us healthy and tasty dinners on request. Breakfast was a complete meal that included a large plate of fresh tropical fruits. The setting in the rainforest was beautiful and relaxing with the sound of the river and fountain. The beds were comfortable. It was a great place to come back from activities such as sidetrip to Cayos Cochinos.

The property was awesome! It felt very secluded (which is what we wanted) and you could hear the river from the back, as well as a ton of birds and other animals. It was a short walk to the river where you could take a swim, climb the huge boulders, or just relax. Another short walk brings you to the Pico Bonito visitor center where you can cross the hanging bridge and hike into the national park. They make a nice breakfast every morning for you with fresh fruit, eggs, toast, and other stuff. John and the staff were very friendly and helpful!

We loved the open-walled design of the house, but obviously with that, you will have bugs. Bring bug spray. Everything else was great.

Everything was in perfect condition, everybody was super friendly and helpful and the area is really nice. Closesed to the park and it also had a nice spot at the river just 2 (steep) minutes by walk. During the whole day and night you can hear the jungle around you, I love it!

Beautiful hotel, with the perfect balance of comfort but still feeling in the wilderness. The hammocks and sofas are great after a day of hiking, and the food was excellent. The sound of the birds and wildlife was wonderful The owners john and Soledad are friendly and super helpful without being overbearing. Really enjoyed my stay.

Everything! Wonderful family, beautiful place. Very safe. Dont hesitate to go. One word of advice, take the flight to Roatan on the way back there instead of the ferry. I dont usually find ferries bother me but this is a rough ride. Half the cabin, including me, barfed the whole way. Doesnt sound like a big deal, but it wrecked my whole day and evening. Either that or have dramamine before you go, no questions asked. Just take it! The only ones not barfing non stop were napping. The flight is cheap if booked in advance. 15 minutes. I really wished I had heeded this advice. Villa de Soleded is a gem. Enjoy!!

Not a thing.

Staying at La Villa de Soledad was a wonderful experience! John and Soledad are unmatched as hosts and helped us with everything we needed from to food to connecting us with terrific local guides. The property itself is so beautiful, we stayed five nights and we really wished we had even more time! It also felt very safe, we spent lots of time just walking down the road looking at birds and each person who went by always waved or said hi! It is definitely a nice and safe community in the mountains. Finally, the food made by Soledad is so delicious, I think all breakfasts going forward will be disappointing after the feasts at Villa de Soledad! She was also very kind to make us dinners four nights of our stay which were excellent. A perfect place to honeymoon, thanks John and Soledad!

Staff was very lovely. We left a phone charger there and John sent it over to Roatan on the ferry. This was beyond the call of duty. Rooms were spacious and well appointed, and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was very good

While I understood the hotel was out of town by 8 km, I did not understand that one should have a 4x4 to get there, especially at night. We were in a small tour van. The driver got us there but I think it was a miracle. Don’t make the drive for a one night stay. If we had been staying a few days this would not have been so much of a problem. It was 45 minutes of hell to drive up from La Ceiba and we had to get up at the crack of dawn to drive back down the mountain.

Perfect jungle location teeming with birds and a view of the river from the terrace. We saw a toucans and hummingbird every day from our hammock. Super friendly staff who really made an effort to chat (we communicated in half Spanish/ half English). Jessica’s food was delicious and we had dinner there every night.

Maybe more information on local activities/trips

As the owner tell you as soon as you arrive, you definitely feel at home at this hotel! Very clean rooms, beautiful decoration, nice terrace with hammocks, pleasant garden, excellent breakfast and dinner. The owners are also very friendly and answer any question you would have!
