Roatan certainly has a lot going for it! When I bump it up against our hit list, it’s almost perfect. Almost. Let’s break down the pros & cons as they pertain to us:

There’s just something about Roatan that keeps calling us back. We’ve been there three times over the past four years and we’ve never been back anywhere before.
