Honduras: Roatan Cost of Living:

I have read that a couple can easily live on $1,500/month in Roatan. My husband and I plan to retire there, in a modest 2 bedroom/2 bath house, for which we will pay cash. We have done a lot of research and know what the basic food costs are, the price of goods and services, as well as the high price of electricity. However, I was wondering if anyone who now lives there would be willing to share their experiences with the costs of living in Roatan?? Thank you!

Honduras: Roatan rental income options?:

Check out Steve Haas' website: www.roatan.net and I would recommend looking for a condo in the Sundancer complex. The complex is 500 feet from the beach, they have a private dock, private pool, and the sale prices are great.

Honduras: retire Roatan:

Hi Coolbeans, My husband and I have been researching moving to Roatan for 5 years. This included renting a condo for a while and living like we would if we lived there. We compared the price of items in the grocery stores, household items, prescription drugs, medical facilities, and real estate prices. We will sell almost everything because most real estate is sold furnished, and the duty you pay on bringing in is high. Contact Steve Haas at www.roatan.net. He is originally from Colorado and a wonderful real estate agent who can help you. You truly need to do more research before "jumping off the cliff." No one knows your situation in detail, so other advise is difficult to offer. Due to some immediate health issues, we won't be moving down for another 1-1/2 years. But we are WELL prepared to make the move and make it successful. Good luck to you!!
