Mango Creek Resort — Hotel in Bay Islands

No trip to Roatan is complete without a visit to Mango Creek Lodge! Hubby and I stayed in the yellow cabana in 2018 (reviewed separately) and couldn’t wait to return for a visit. While renting a house in Oak Ridge Cay, we took a short boat ride to MCL to enjoy Tita’s wonderful cooking and Manny’s delightful company and we were not disappointed! I emailed in advance to see if they were open and plan our lunch visit. They didn’t have any guests but welcomed us warmly for our visit. We enjoyed delicious lobster tails and pleasant company. It was our dog’s, Goliath, first visit and he loved to explore the beautiful grounds. It was neat to see the changes and improvements since our stay. The grounds are as lovely as ever and the old dock was repaired and looked terrific. Thankfully, MCL has been able to keep most of the workers employed during the pandemic and we could tell that they had been busy! We look forward to our next visit to MCL and highly recommend it to others. I hope you enjoy the photos I shared.

Celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary. What a find! We were so fortunate to be the only guests and we felt as if we come to stay with long lost family. Tita and Manny met us at the airport and looked after us every step of the way. ||We cleaned every plate of food that Tita cooked for us - delicious home-cooked food every meal including local lobster and shrimp.||Jimbo was the perfect guy who took us out snorkeling and exploring and had a knowledge of the island and its surroundings like no one else.||Joby took us fishing twice - where we caught barracuda, needlefish, jackfish, triggerfish amongst others. We caught our own fresh bait (sardines) and kept them in the bottom of the boat.||BUT the most amazing of all was living off the grid for a week, with the pristine Caribbean waters lapping at our feet from our over the water cabana.||We have traveled to many special places in the world but Mango Creek Lodge is truly the most special of all. ||Mango Creek Lodge along with Manny, Tita and the rest of the staff really is a hidden gem. We will be back. Thank you...

We are cruisers. We arrived November 6th. Moored up to a ball and went in to Mango Creek. Manny and Tita had just returned from vacation so nothing was open but they offered us beers and invited us to tour the resort. It is most beautiful and Tita has cultivated a diverse botanical garden on the grounds. The next night we went for dinner after snorkeling the neighborhood reefs and it was wonderful. The dinner and the reefs. Tita and Manny were excellent hosts. We were the only ones there that day. If you want a great dive vacation (or just to get away from it all) this is one of the best resorts to do it. Wonderful service, beautiful location and the best seafood we have...
