We spent 8 days at Laguna Beach Resort, on Utila. (Off the coast of Honduras.) Great food, great dives, great company. It was a slow week (in-between busy seasons), and there were only 10 in our group. It was a great group, and we really enjoyed the time we had there. We logged 22 dives- the most we've ever done in one week! And we had our first night dives ever. So fun!
After the week+ at Laguna Beach Resort, we went to our island, Sandy Cay. We rented it for 5 nights, and had a ball. We had to bring all our own food, so we went to the grocery store with a very detailed list. John cooked most of the time, which was really fun for me. :-)
This was definitely not a 5 star hotel, but it was exactly what we expected it to be. The cabin was actually divided into two: one part was 2 bedrooms and a bathroom, the second part was the living room, a bathroom and the kitchen. The table was outside.
The fun part was the ocean! We went snorkeling every day (I skipped one day, and read my book, but John went in the shallows where I could see him.) One day we spent 3 1/2 hours and snorkeled around the whole island! It was so much fun!
The snorkeling was as good as the diving was in Utila. Absolutely beautiful.
But, it was kind of like camping. Like Young Women's Camp. There's a cabin, flush bathrooms, gas cooking, BUT there were bugs! Flies, mosquitoes, ants and roaches. We found that if we were out of the kitchen by sunset, we missed most of the bugs.
Sunrise: 5 a.m. Sunset: 6:15 p.m. Pitch dark: 6:30 p.m.
Never had to set an alarm. Read, walked on the beach, did a puzzle, watched a movie every night on John's computer, snorkeled.
So we were camping! But camping in paradise! And with the one you love! Fantastic!
