Our room was ok, very dated and lacking amenities. No hand soap , no face or hand towels. The only light was a bare bulb in the middle of the room . A night table would be very nice.

Located directly at an entrance spot to snorkel the reef from the beach . And the reef provides excellent snorkeling opportunity. The room is clean and functional, staff and service are very nice. Breakfast and restaurant provide decent good quality food. Breakfast available at 7 oclock .

We enjoyed the pool area and bar. We could snorkel and swim from the dock, it’s easy to just enjoy the whole day there. You can order food and drinks The stay included breakfast which was made fresh to order. The rooms were simple ( we had 2 double beds), but beds are a small double and very uncomfortable. You can feel the springs in your back and the middle has no support.

I wouldn’t stay here again but would go and spend the day at the pool and enjoy the beach bar.

The restaurant that was out on the oceanfront had good food and service. The only complaint was issues with payment. We booked through Expedia with the option to pay at location. They wabted to charge more. But they did cancel the reservation eventually and then we rebooked through Expedia and paid on the Expedia website for that price. Also note when comparing prices with other places to stay, they charge 36.00 a day for the 2nd traveler, where other properties the cost listed is for 2 travelers per room. So may seem cheaper than another place, but once add the 36.00 for the 2nd person in the room it's more expensive. So compare the total costs, don't just look at the price quoted as total cost on Expedia, because they are adding that additional fee.

The bartenders and wait staff were very nice. There is lots of property but much unused. LOTS of construction and noise. Couldn't nap after time snorkeling and beach time. They were drilling in the room next to me. Banging tables on the floor in the foyer to set up the meeting room. Very loud. Lots of potential to be a better place. Likely won't go again u fortunately. The location is great. Shame.

Had to make a couple of day trips to Utilla from the mainland and stayed at Coral View both times. Restaurant and staff are great and the sea side bar is wonderful. Katarina is a great bar tender! Eddie the tuk tuk driver is a bonus too!

This place is really special! My wife and I have been to many dive resorts over decades of travel. The Coral View ranks very highly in our list of faves, primarily because of its no-hassle convenience of everything and their really nice and accommodating staff. These features make it among the best values and most relaxing we have ever experienced. The dive shop is out back on the bay, they have a really good restaurant on site, the bar is out over the water (with fantastic views), and you walk down a few steps off the bar and you’re snorkeling on a stellar reef. They have a huge, clean built-in pool adjacent to the bar and comfortable, although a bit limited, seating and sunning furniture. You’re far away from the total craziness of the Utila Town yet it’s easy to get there. We walked to town in about 20 minutes, but we recommend renting a scooter for convenience.
Our room was comfortable, very clean and gave us more than enough space. The bed was fairly new and comfortable. A/C was very good, and quiet. The staff was friendly and very accommodating. My wife needed a blow dryer, and they had one there the same day. We didn’t see one insect in the room during our entire week there. The water pressure often had problems delivering up to our fourth-floor room, but other guests told us it wasn’t too bad elsewhere. If we gave it some time, it did deliver ample hot water. Hey, it’s on a tiny island!
The dive shop is one of the most professional I’ve ever worked with in 4 decades

DIve Staff Top Notch

Basic Hotel, at waters edge with Bar and largte deck oveer water. Staff friendly.

Basic rooms, but clean with hot water ( Not always a given on island loations )

Dive Center Manager ( Jorge ) top notch, attentive and helpful above and below the water.

1 mile from center of small village, used Tuk Tuk to go everywhere for $2 per trip, much cheaper than renting a scooter for $35 per day.

Best restaurant is Mango Tango, easily, with quite tasty gourmet food.

We knew this would not be a 5 star resort, the pictures that other travelers have posted are accurate. Everyone who worked there were extremely friendly and helpful, they cared about the service they provided. The hotel owners should think about updating the rooms one by one over time as the bathroom needed tons of help, from the leaking shower to missing tiles. The beds and pillows were not supportive and I actually felt like I was sleeping on a water bed. The pool was operational as was the bar. There was one set of steps into the water that was damaged and not usable. The benefit of the location is that the resort doesn't have a lot of traffic as it is at the end of the road.

This was a great property , and this is our second time visiting. It was clean and nice and the staff was amazing.The food was incredible and the price was ridiculously inexpensive for what we received. Everyday, we are snorkeling right outside the bar. And it is some of the most amazing snorkeling in the world. It's like you are swimming in an aquarium.

the hotel was a decent stay. service was great. I dont think the rooms have tvs, but i thought that was ok too since we did a lot of exploring. Room cleaning service was on point. I met the owner personally the next day as he lives on the property. The restaurant has decent food mostly typical food. Overall the stay was definitely worth for its price. Enjoyed Utila very much, a gem of an island inits own. Hands down Utila!

Nice hotel with a great staff

Management and staff were absolutely wonderful. Very helpful and attentive. Any requests I had were met with positive results and smiling faces. The facilities were very nice, in the location. Very peaceful. One night there was a bit of a power outage due to a storm on the island. The staff reacted immediately, and was moments, the on-site generator was working and all returned to normal. The resort is a mile or so outside of the center of town. It’s actually a very nice walk. If you choose to take a tuktuk it is only about two dollars and the staff can call for one. never had a wait more than two or three minutes. I did one day of diving at the resort and once again, the staff of the dive shop were extremely helpful. The water was a bit rough so visibility wasn’t quite perfect but the divemaster and captain still found some good sites.

Quiet location away from the noise and crowds. The dock and the sea, particularly the snorkeling in the reef in front are reasons to stay here. The staff, except for the bartenders in the beach bar, could all use an overhaul though.

Nice good hotel and front desk offered a room with ocean view per requested which is really nice to see both sunrise and sunset..good breakfast and free refill water.. Hotel location perfect for snorkel right off their bar..nice guy that works there and did great job with mixed drinks. Not so much with diving bcs not enough customers signed up there bcs the hotel is far from town so need to get tuk tuk in and out..highly recommended for all people that love snorkel ..saw lot of fish and sea cucumber..also one evening saw a school of dolphin swam right in front while eating a dinner there from the bar..plus local pelicans hanging out there everyday.

I have travelled to many countries and have stayed at all types of places, but have never been treated so poorly anywhere. My 8 family members and I stayed here for 3 nights

-No tuk tuks available from the ferry station to the hotel, so we had to walk 2.2km in the pouring rain with our luggage. I had just spoken to the staff a few weeks prior to organize transportation, but there was no mention that the Tuk Tuks would be unavailable or limited due to it being the last day of a festival
-Hotel restaurant was not available to us because of the 150 diving students. We got conflicting answers from 4 different staff about whether or not we could eat at the restaurant. Even outside of the students allotted mealtimes, we were turned away repeatedly. Other restaurants were far away from the hotel, and some were even low on food or closed because of the festival. We had 3 children, so not having access to the hotel food was distressing
-There were clear animosities between staff members and poor communication. The front desk staff called one kitchen staff a “liar” (among other profanities) when we asked if we could eat at the restaurant. The kitchen lead stated that he told the owner not to rent out the other hotel rooms since he could not keep up with feeding the students
-Our room reeked of mold/mildew, no one came to clean, tiles were missing from the bathroom floor, there was mold in our sink, there were safety pins and debris on the bathroom floor, walls were paper thin

This was the worst place I have ever stayed. To start, the hotel said they arranged a ride for our group to the hotel. The ride never showed up and we walked to the hotel from ferry in the rain. We could have dealt with that but when we got to the hotel there was a huge group of highschool students on a diving trip for 6 weeks with there clothes all over. We could have dealt with that but when we went into the restaurant to order food, the girl literally said no. The next morning we went to get the continental breakfast they said was provided and met a ton of resistance. When we asked for coffee they said it was all gone, while kids from the diving group would be handed whatever they wanted. When we talked to one member of the staff the would blame the other members of the staff telling us they were told not to allow us to order food. We spent our first day of the trip trying to find a way to feed our group. It was miserable. I would never recommend that place!!! I have never dealt with a staff so rude and would never go back!

We had a blast diving and enjoyed my stay at Coral View. The staff was super nice and helpful. The restaurant was so good and reasonably priced. I decided to extend my stay longer and not go back to Roatan because everything on Utila was less expensive and a more fun laid back vibe.

The room was ok, staff very nice, but I was booked to do 10 days of diving. Their 2 larger boats were out of comission so there was just a small speed boat. I only got 3 days of diving and the boat went down. I also got hurt because of the boat captain forgetting the ladder.1
