Oyster Bed Lagoon — Hotel in Útila

We just got back from a 2 week stay at Oysterbed Lagoon. We stayed in a 2 bedroom/2 bathroom condo (1 bedroom has a King size bed and the other bedroom has 2 twin beds). I'm guessing it's about 1100 sq. ft. There is a lot of space. It may be the only handicap accessible place to stay on the island, so if that is a need for you, you found your place. You can tell these condos are set up for short term stays. They have the BASIC essentials (eg: plates, cups, pots, pans, coffee pot, blender, silverware, towels, bedding). There is a washer/dryer, which can help you cut down on the amount of luggage you bring! There is a pool, almost oceanfront, which is also a great item for those on vacation. We didn't use the a/c at all but it is there (and it is not central air, so you can individualize the temperature in each room) - between the ocean breeze and the ceiling fans there was no need. It even got a little chilly at night (it would of been nice to have a blanket for the bed). One recommendation for those of you looking for a place to stay - make sure you bring your DEET! The condo is built over mangroves. There are a lot of sand flies and no-see-um's. As long as there is a breeze there is no problem, but when the breeze goes away, the bugs come out. Overall, loved the place! The people who work here are the best. It was comfortable, close to town (but far enough away from the party people), and solidly built. Would definitely...

Very roomy, clean and comfortable. View in front is beautiful, with benches on the beach to watch the sunrise. Duplexes were very quiet. Walk to town is pretty quick and lovely. Tuk Tuk taxis are always available. You can also arrange for golf carts, quads, etc. It was so nice to have a washer and dryer. AC is cold, shower hot, wifi good and great beds. We would stay here again and probably not at any of the hotels. Owner and manager very responsive. 24 hr armed security on...

I was here in April, it's a beautiful place, It was my first time in Utila and I can't complain about the Oyster Bed, the staff was super relaxed and friendly with us, the location was good, everything is near if you want to walk. The house is big and everything looks new, the only thing you need to know about Utila is that electricity is prepaid, you have to...
