Pros- Felt safe with security. Daily housekeeping. Dive shop was good. Right on the beach.
Cons- Room very dated, mattress lumpy. Old septic system so no toilet paper. Very weak water pressure in shower.
Overall for the price i would stay somewhere else.

We stayed in 5C. It’s a wonderful, large room with ample closet and storage areas. The bathroom is large with plenty of room for toiletries. Overall, it was a great experience.

Loved our stay at the Bananarama. Staff were very friendly. The attached restaurant, The Thirsty Turtle, had some of the best service we received in Roatan, and they have daily food and drink specials.
Our room was about a 30-second walk to the beach. Banarama has an area reserved with lounge chairs solely for hotel guests, and they enforce it. The hotel is practially at the center of West Bay Beach also, making it a perfect spot. The rooms could use a little TLC, but that's so insignificant that it wouldn't stop me from staying there again.

We live the people (visitors) that stay at Bananarama and all the staff are so nice and friendly. Some of the rooms could use a little cosmetic work but we are rarely in our room. Food at the Thirsty Turtle is good and the daily specials are great. The location is right in the middle of West Bay Beach- walkable in both directions. Everything you need is close by.

Bananarama has our heart! What a beautiful spot and right in the middle of everything. The bed was super comfy and endless hot water for our showers. We loved that you could change your beach towels as often as you like. The best part of the dinning was the Pizza!! So good! We also loved the cinnamon buns for the little cafe and of course the chia latte! Next time we go back we will definitely get #5 cabin ( cabana). That way we won’t have any noisy neighbours upstairs.

The restaurant food and pizza is excellent. Bar prices are very reasonable. I did not like the hotel shuttle driver trying to charge me $50.00 for a shuttle the hotel clearly said would be $30.00.
