Arca is spectacular! The hotel is small, private and peaceful. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed. The location is excellent with the beautiful West Bay beach at your doorstep, a short walk to great snorkeling and a bunch of great restaurants and bars. However, the best food on the beach is at the Arca. The breakfast is amazing, and lunch and dinner offer lots of choices, salads, hamburgers or delicious fish dishes. But most all the staff are welcoming and friendly. They couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. Overall this is one of our all-time favorite hotels, and we recommend it without reservation.

Wonderful property! Right on the beach so you're just steps from the water and activities that Roatan has to offer, but Arca was a calm oasis when you needed a place to relax. On our vacation we met several people who were staying at various hotels across the island and all of them said they wish they had booked a room at the Arca.

We had a truly great stay at Arca. The view from our room was amazing. Waking up to the sound of the beach every morning was great. The room was clean and really comfortable. The bathroom was clean. The shower had plenty of hot water and good water pressure. The best part of our stay was the staff. Whatever we needed they took care of it. From coffee brought up to our room in the morning to helping us with rides and activities. The service at the bar and restaurant was great. Even though the weather wasn't the best during our stay Arca made it memorable.

Classiest place to stay on West Bay. Exceptional modern rooms - including a heavenly outdoor shower. Delicious cocktails and food. An oasis of calm natural beauty amidst a rowdy beach environment. Beach chairs available for guests. Staff was friendly and helpful (especially Jenna). So glad we stayed at Arca.

Arca was the most amazing hotel I’ve ever stayed at! It was right on the beach, so beautiful, and they kept it so clean! Even the sand right in front of the hotel! Their restaurant was some of the best food I’ve ever had! I would come back just for the food! Everyone was so nice at the Hotel, I loved them all! I was so sad to leave! Everyone walking on the beach would always stop in front of our hotel to look at it! Cause it was the best one!:) I would give this hotel more stars if I could!!

Amazing property, great service, delicious food. We arrange Arca to have a driver pick us up at the airport. The driver waited 2 hours for us because customs was super backed up, luckily the driver had cold beer and water waiting for us. We liked the driver (James) so much we did an 8 hour island tour. Went to AJ sloth & monkey sanctuary, went on a amazing mangrove tour, our driver James called ahead of time and the captain or the panga boat was waiting for us in the parking lot. We got some amazing pictures with the help of James. As for Arca boutique hotel we had such an amazing stay we changed plans and extended by 6 more nights. We did pay for a beach front room and was blown away from the beauty of the room. Currently hearing the waves now and its a dream come true. The Bar has 5pm free a free glass of champagne everyday at 5pm. And every they have a food and 2X1 special every. After just a day or so the staff already feels like family. We truly feel vip staying here.
