Just returned from a week at Hobbies Hideaway. This was our second stay with John and Sue, and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We rented apt #1 that was a one bedroom, and our friends stayed in apt #2 that was a two bedroom. He has also added a third one bedroom apt also. The apartments are fully equipped... More

As always our vacation was fabulous at Hobbie's Hideaway! By far the best kept secret on the island for a great, relaxing getaway with AWESOME hosts! Miss John and Sue already and can't wait to get back there soon!!!

There are many wonderful things I can say about Hobbies Hideway,I'll tell you a few. It was a Hidaway, peaceful, not crowded, it was a short way from the husle and bustle of the crowds of down town, but close enough to get to the big grocery stores on one side or the varieties of restraunts, night life and different...

First of all the people of Roatan are great!!! We are from the mid west in the US and surrounded by friendly people. The citizens of Roatan rival the citizens of the mid west. On to our accommodations. We had everything we needed. If there was any extra things we needed we only had to ask Sue or John and... More

I'll try to add something new so I'm not just echoing the past reviews here, we found this place to be just what we wanted for the first part of our 1st trip to Roatan. I was originally going to rent a car (I rent one everywhere we go) but John assured me that it wasn't really necessary and it... More

This was our first family vacation and I was traveling with my wife and infant son. My wife did most of the searching on TA for our lodging, but when she showed me Hobbie's it looked like a great place for our family. We arrived exhausted after a long travel day. John picked us up from the airport and immediately... More

We spent a week in January at Hobbie’s Hideaway. I was traveling with my husband and 11 month old son and this was our first family vacation. I spent a great deal of time on Trip Advisor reading reviews before deciding where we wanted to stay. My husband and I rarely stay in hotels, we much prefer vacation rentals or... More

We enjoy all our guests that stay with us. This was a pleasant surprise. We had a baby of about a year stay with us. It had been sometime since our children are grown with children. It gave us a insight to what two wonderful parents can provide for this child. Very well behaved,very little crying. We were very impressed... More

Just returned from Roatan and Hobbies. What a relaxing time we had. Our room was comfortable and having a kitchen to do a little cooking made our evenings even more relaxing. We ordered a Pizza one night, had Chinese brought in, fresh fish one night, and John and Sue cooked a conk dinner for everyone one night. John and Sue... More

Why did I feel that Hobbies Hideaway is excellent? Let me count the ways. First of all, there is the free transportation to and from the hotel. Well, then there are the owners that would do anything they can to assist you in any way they can. On the first or second day they transport you to a wonderful grocery... More

Thank you for the very nice review. Your description of the apartments was excellent. Clean ,quiet,comfortable, enough room and a full kitchen. Mrs L blended right in with our other guests.
