We went here on an excursion while cruising. What an experience. Well worth the money. Snorkeling, swim in crystal clear water, lounging on the beach, eating a buffet lunch of chicken, fish, slaw, drinks. Buckets of authentic Honduran beers. Honestly, this is my greatest vacation memory EVER!…

We were at Maya Key 3/2020 on the RC Liberty of the Seas. Amazing resort, excellent snorkeling swimming, bar, beach & best staff! We had a lovely day sunning, snorkeling (with a guide, they are very safety conscious) a delicious lunch of local favorites was included in our very resonable price and the beach and water was pristine. We visited in 2009 and again 2020 mainly to relax and snorkel and and it was as pristine as 11 years ago. So blessed by this beautiful day in Roatan, Honduras. Please visit you will not be disappointed, only a short boat ride from the cruise ship terminal, lovely people, beautiful, safe resort. We're going back and staying on Roatan soon.…

We were on the Harmony of the Seas March 2020, Maya Key is a excursion they sponsor. We have been on several cruises and this is one of the best excisions we went on. Very close to get to the island and just so beautiful and peaceful. Included a delish lunch, lounge chairs right on the shore, beautiful beach, everything was close by within walking distance. Loved the animal encounter with the monkeys, walked around the island, swam in the warm water and not very crowded…

We did this at the last minute from our NCL cruise ship. It was only a 5 minute boat ride to the little island. My wife and I had a very relaxing day on the beach. The beach is not very big but it served our needs just perfect. We did not go snorkeling as we had snorkeled the whole day before in Cozumel. The drinks were very good and very reasonably priced. The buffet was quite tasty and we had a nice lunch on the veranda. The best part of the day was going in the cage with the monkeys! We had not even planned on this but went along for the tour. It was one of the highlights of our entire cruise. Not going to knock your socks off but a very easy and relaxing day.…

Maya Key Private Island Retreat - Its not what you think it is. Make sure you know what you are being sold, it is a lovely little island and they are doing some good work with recuse animals although the conditions they live in are questionable. The beach and free swimming area is tiny, I mean really tiny. You are better off going to the other side (ship side) of the island to swim. DO NOT book this trip to snorkel as you will be very disappointed. You have to pay extra for snorkel gear even if you have your own and you have to select a designated time to snorkel with a guide off of the pier. It is very poor, do not believe the reports of snorkelling from the peer freely it is massively restricted and a bad snorkel area. If you do make the mistake of booking it anyway make sure you take lots of money you will need it. They don't make the whole situation clear and there were many people on the island caught out with no cash for anything else after paying for snorkelling they could not enjoy or do because it is a bad rough snorkel area. At the end of the day it is your choice but don't say you haven't been warned. NCL agreed with our complaint and paid us our money back, that has to tell you something. For the best day in Roatan simply walk off the ship, turn left of the end of the pair and get a taxi to West Bay where you will get all you ever dreamed of. Just make sure you are clear with the price of the taxi and that it is for all passengers and not each passenger. Roatan is a developing destination and they like a scam or two just be on your guard.…
