Reminiscent of a luxury mansion on the
Greek Mediterranean, the Villa at Dunbar
Rock is an exotic vacation destination on
Guanaja Island -- about 45 miles off the
North Coast of
Honduras in the
Bay Islands. Represented by U.S. Dive Travel
Network, Dunbar Villa was designed & built by a
Texas real estate developer -- who loves to dive -- for folks who relish scuba diving & snorkeling vacations, or off-the-beaten-path
Caribbean getaways.
Service at Dunbar Villa is prompt, courteous & always friendly. For years now, the staff motto has been "Arrive as a
Guest,
Leave as a
Friend."
The two miracles of Dunbar Villa are these: (1) In the 20+ years we have helped hundreds of clients visit Guanaja, this lovely island never got scarred by heavy tourism or crass commercialism. No cruise ships, no
Spring Break hordes. Just clean air & water & brilliant reefs teeming with life. (2) Villa owners have rolled rates back to 4 years ago, where prices were during the Recession -- well below that of most luxury Cozumel, Cayman or
Bahamas resorts. Yet the quality of service & luxury amenities are still a solid 4 stars.
Dunbar Villa was first built in
1998 & recently renovated to more than double its previous floor space & luxury index. Valued at nearly
USD $10 million, this mansion is solidly anchored onto a huge flat-topped rock, nestled in tranquil
Sandy Bay on Guanaja's protected southern shore.
Dunbar Villa is about
300 meters from the beach, perched over gentle clear ocean waters that abound with healthy multi-colored fish, corals & sponges. Now expanded to a 4-story 15,000-square-foot lodge, Dunbar Villa offers 8 clean ocean-view guest rooms with spacious balconies, large tile showers & personally-controlled
A/C. The Villa also features a comfy living room with widescreen TV + an excellent sound system. Wi-fi is available nearly 24/7 & the cooks are wonderful. They will meet your heart's desire
...
Managed by
Denis Midence, the most experienced & personable diving guide in our
Western Caribbean network, this property is perfect for small groups seeking a pristine escape from tourist traps. Our delighted clients over the years have included teachers, nurses, military men & women, firefighters, prep school groups on marine biology studies, missions teams from medical centers or churches across the
USA, plus top execs from
Fortune 400 firms. Also
Hollywood &
Silicon Valley execs & scores of fun-loving couples & families from all walks of life.
Children under thoughtful adult supervision are always warmly welcome in the Villa at Dunbar Rock.
Cool news: Dunbar Villa owners are building a special access ramp from the boat dock to the 2nd floor, to allow disabled folks & also slower-moving seniors to take a golf cart up Dunbar Rock -- quick as a wink!
A luxurious
infinity pool will be located right below the south wall of the dining room, giving guests a sweeping territorial view of the Guanaja
Fringing Reef. Also coming soon are a huge waterfront dive shop at the dock level, plus a new gym space, a conference room & a helicopter pad atop the building for easy
VIP access.
