!Romantic Getaway Or Small Family Fun Time! Hill View Cabins.
This charming water access only, newly built 1 bedroom "Flamingo Cabin" offers beautiful views of Jones Ville harbor. Situated right over the water, it is over 800 Sq feet of living space. When you step out on the deck you will never want to leave.
This cabin is located on 6 acres of a beautifully manicured point. You can jump from your own private dock into the water or maybe you would like to go kayaking through the mangroves, that were used by pirates, or take the boat out and have a look at the island from the water side.
The gentle ocean breeze keeps the cabin cool. The cabin has an open kitchen for dining and the living room is complete with TV and Internet . The Flamingo cabin is tastefully decorated with a king size bed and air conditioning unit to make your stay comfortable, which makes it perfect for a small family or a couple.
Large private front deck with unique wooden furniture that you can relax in.
A perfect place to spend your mornings with a book or afternoon and evenings with your favorite ice cold beverage or coffee. The only traffic that you will see is the boats as they sail or motor by. This is a water access only property but just minutes away from wherever you wish to go, its located close to the public dock. The less than 1 minute boat ride offers a wonderful view of the property as it welcomes you.
Some of our unique local restaurants, like Hole in the wall, Trico's Marina, On The Rocks are just across from the cabin also Mcnab's Place is located just a minute away. also just minutes away we have the community of Oak Ridge, where you find BJ's Back yard, where all expats gather for a fun music filled Friday evening also Happy Landing, Save Center grocery store, they are all accessible by water.
There is a lot for you to enjoy by your self if you like, you can take the kayaks and explore the mangroves on your own, you can enjoy the beautiful crystal waters as you swim in the creek, you can go snorkeling. The reef is just in front of the cabin and If you like fishing and snorkeling or would like to do any activity I can help you make it happen. A local grocery stores just minutes away from your cabin, anything you may need can be found at one or the other.
Upon arrival you will be welcomed at the air port. on our way to your relaxing vacation cabin we will make a stop to Eldon's super market.

Wow!! All I can say is that this place was amazing!! My son and I had the time of our lives. Rosina and Sonny make you feel at home and like you are family. They picked us up at the airport and brought us to the store to stock up. The cabin has everything you need. My son loved sitting on the hammock that over looked everything. We will be back very soon. I feel like 20 days there just wasnāt enough. Rosina can also help with any tours weather zip lining, snorkeling, or just a beach day! Book right now!!

Greatest time with the best host!
Loved every minute of this stay. Rosina is the greatest host ever made us feel like we knew her our whole lives. Her place is great it was everything we wanted and more. It's water access only but you can rent a boat and anywhere you want to go other than on the water Rosina will accommodate. She directed us to all the fishing, diving, etc guides for the best local prices. She is the epitome of the best the island has to offer. 10 stars will definitely be back to stay with her!

Canāt say enough about Rosina and Sonny. They are incredible hosts. This cabin was very comfortable & had everything we needed. We rented a small boat from our hosts and loved using it to get around the area. Rosina took us on a little tour of the East End including Beautiful Camp Bay Beach and the town of Punta Gordy. This was a great way to see the beautiful coast and the little towns. We snorkelled right out front at Calvinās Crack and saw our first Spotted Eagle Ray. We loved riding through the mangroves and snorkelling where the ocean comes in to meet them. We were fortunate to be there during a full moon and loved seeing it shinning on the water. There are lots of little restaurants around but our favourite was On The Rocks! Great food, great service and a baby monkey to play with while waiting for your food. We highly recommend renting this cabin.

My husband and I really enjoyed our stay with Ms Rosina and Mr Sonny. The breezes were fantastic. We loved visiting their monkeys and parrots and viewing all the plants and flowers. Ms Rosina brought me medicine when I was a bit sick. Mr Sonny brought us bananas and a papaya from their trees. They were the best hosts we have ever had. Nice that they live right there. We also enjoyed visiting BJās for music and Tricoās had great food and very friendly people also. Would definitely visit again. Would not worry about renting a car or boat. Many boat taxiās and Ms Rosina will take you to the grocery one a week. She also does tours. Thanks for a great stay!

A month in paradise
From the very begining to the very end, Rosina took care of us like we were part of her treasured family. Rosina greeted us at the airport and took us to buy groceries. She then took us to Jonesville and took us in a small boat to Flamingo, we could see it from across the way. The views of this property and from this property are amazing. Each morning we sipped our coffee and looked at the sailboats and saw the small community come to life and start the day. Rosina recommened places she thought we should visit and see. We rented a boat from her and were able to head out when we wanted to. My husband loves to fish and was overjoyed to catch fish right from our front deck. We saw beautiful lion fish right next to the lower deck, where do you get to do that! We enjoyed both the entertainment and the food at Trico. We have traveled a lot and we have never felt the same about any other place. We loved it here and are already planning our return trip.

The house was large and clean and it was a pleasant place to spend a week. However it was very hard to find as it is water access only and the parking spot for your vehicle is at a private home. There are kayaks which can be used for free or you can rent a motorboat. Have them pick you up and plan to rent the boat, doing this will start your vacation off with much less frustration.

A great time in paradise!
From the moment we arrived at the airport Rosina and Sonny made us feel welcomed and comfortable! Their property is in a beautiful private spot with incredible sunrise and sunset views to watch from the hammock on the front porch. The flamingo cabin is stocked with everything from cooking ware to towels, shampoo, and laundry detergent. We slept like babies in the king size bed with ocean breeze blowing through the windows. Jonesville is so much fun to explore by boat. With easy access to the mangrove tunnels, awesome snorkeling, and fishing you canāt beat the east end! We loved going over to Trico Bar and Hole in The Wall for dinner and drinks! Rosina took us on an island tour and it was one of our favorite days in Roatan. She and Sonny are so friendly and have so much love for the island to share with their guests. Highly recommend this stay to anyone looking for a relaxing trip to paradise with all the comforts of home. We felt extremely safe and well taken care of. We will definitely be back and look forward to fishing for the big snapper with Sonny!

Very nice comfortable house with every amenity you would need. A wonderful deck overlooking the bay where we could relax and see different fish, lobsters and rays swim below. Great time kayaking and using the motor boat to go through the mangroves, tour the bay and coastline and go to the different restaurants. We even had pizza delivered right to our dock. Sonny and Rosina were great hosts always right there with any needs we had. We enjoyed watching, holding and feeding their many pets: monkeys, parrots, toucans, etc. This is our second time spending time here and we will definitely be back.

A great end to a vacation
My girlfriend and I spent 5 days with Rosina and Sonny. Their accommodations are well appointed. We had everything and more to make our stay enjoyable. Be sure to read the guest book. It is full of things to do and when things happen in the bay. Don't wait until the last day to find out about the pool at Trico's, which by the way is a great place to eat and visit. Rosina is the best. We had a day out in the West End and were able to do all the city things and then get back to the quiet of the bay. I feel rested and rejuvenated and was very sad to go back home. PS Bring bug spray for when the winds calm.
Thank you Rosina!

Perfect Vacation
We recently stayed at Flamingo cabin for two weeks. It was everything we expected and more. Rosina and family took us in on day one and we immediately felt like being home. I cant say enough about Rosina and the girls and how they looked after us. The Flamingo cabin is located in the perfect spot in Jonesville Bight , fantastic view . We spent our days exploring in the small boat that is available to rent , fishing , snorkeling and swimming . We dove on the other side of the island with Subway Watersports. They are a top notch operation. They have nice dive boats , good safe DM's and took us some excellent dives. It seemed like our two weeks flew by , but we enjoyed every minute of it , especially our time at Flamingo Cabin. Thanks Jones family. See you again. Sean& Linda

Flamingo Cabin is a Secluded Sanctuary
If you are looking for a quiet, relaxing get away, the Flamingo Cabin is a great choice. Endless water views, great local food and drinks, and even snorkeling gear and kayaks to use if you are feeling adventurous. This is about as far as you can get from the cruise crowds. Highly recommend.

Lovely, quiet getaway
We loved our week at the Hillview Cabins. Rosina is a warm and thoughtful host and works to make your stay comfortable and fun. As other reviews have pointed out, she picks you up at the airport, provides you with a local mobile phone so that you can call her when needed, stops at the grocery on the drive to the cabins, and gets you to the airport on time if needed. We rented a car, which we found helpful, but there were several days that we never used it.
We also rented a dingy and enjoyed touring the local bays, especially the Mangrove Tunnels, which are very close. We used the kayaks almost daily and loved touring the Jonesville Bay. Meals were frequently at The Blue Mermaid, Hole in the Wall, and Trico. Kim & Tony at The Blue Mermaid cook a phenomenal meal and aim to please. Highly recommended. And you simply must meet Ed at Hole in the Wall! He is a character not to be missed.
The cabins are not in the main tourist area of Roatan, and that is exactly what we wanted. Very relaxing and beautiful. If we go back we will definitely spend more time exploring this beautiful east end of the Island. The cabin itself is comfortable and had everything that we needed. Please do yourself a favor and get Rosina to take you on a tour of the East End. Her local knowledge is priceless.
We hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

Wonderful Family GetAWay for a Month
If you are looking for a relaxing, beautiful ocean view, front porch sitting, cabin in the Roatan, the Flamingo or Mermaid is it. Sonny and Rosina are amazing VBRO hosts, the cabin was perfectly stocked with everyhing we needed, they took us Eldon's when we needed to go(there is a grocery right across the bay from the cabin), Rosina took us to the West End, and on an amazing excursion to Punta Gorda. The Jones family is wonderful all the way around, we traveled with our 6 year old son, we spoke with Mrs Rosina about a babysitter a for a few days and she allowed her awesome daughter, who was amazing with our Son and reasonably priced. We did rent a boat for the month while we were there, we went fishing, snorkeling, swimming, etc from the boat and dock located at the cabins. The Flamingo Cabin is in a great location for the Hole in the Wall, Trico Bar & Grill, Happy Landing (some of the best hot wings ever!), and the Reef House for some amazing diving! We did book an excursion with Mrs Rosina to go Zip lining and to the Animal park on the west end (the Animal Park had sloths, monkeys, parrots, and so many other animals, must do while you are there). Overall we highly recommend this cabin, we stayed for a month in the Flamingo and will be back next year!

Exceptional hospitality, beautiful house, gorgeous views!
My wife and I stayed at the Flamingo cabin from June 20-23, and this ranks as our best VRBO experience to date. The cabin owner, Rosina J., was born for hosting and goes the extra mile in everything she does (without being intrusive). This cabin is water access only though just a 2 minute boat ride from where you can park your car or call a cab. She was fully available to us to shuttle us back and forth as we required, but the cabin and views are so incredible, we suggest that you settle in and enjoy a few days in the vicinity of the cabin. (If you know how to drive a small boat, there is one available at the cabin for rent for $20 per day.) There are two restaurants nearby, Tricoās and Hole in the Wall, that will come and get you by boat and bring you back after happy hour or a meal. We preferred Tricoās (we recommend the lobster nachos) though Hole in the Wall is a fun place to see (see Trip Advisor for more info on Hole in the Wall).
The cabin is well stocked, including TP, paper towel, dish soap, bathroom soap/shampoo, washing detergent (for clothes washer) so it is really ready to go except for groceries. Rosina takes you to the grocery store in French Harbour on the way from airport/ferry, allowing you all the time you need. (As an aside, there is also a small shop located near the cabin; Rosina will drive you to if you forget some essential.)
The cabin is beautiful; its outstanding feature is the very large covered porch/deck with the 180 degree views! Sit back and enjoy the view and breezes! The cabin also comes with kayaks. One of the most fabulous outings we did on Roatan was kayaking through the mangroves near Flamingo cabin. We kayaked for 2 hours through the mangroves and around the bight. AWESOME!
Rosina also runs a tour business called Hillview Tours. We took advantage of that and booked an all-day tour of the island with her on our 2nd day. She is an āislanderā with deep knowledge and fun facts about the island. I thought a full-day would be way too much and initially asked for Ā½ day, but as we finished up our half-day, we wanted more time and asked her to continue for the full day. It was a fabulous orientation to the island, and helped us to see and understand all of the nooks and crannies (and there are many). Based on our tour, we were able to better plan and prioritize our entire visit to Roatan.
