Barefoot Cay Resort

Barefoot Cay, on Roatán’s south side, has created a high-end resort experience offering low-key, relaxed elegance—and most of all, more privacy than typically found at a dive resort.

Barefoot Cay has nine villas on the resort’s private cay on the ocean. On the mainland, choose from five ocean view lofts with quick access to the pool, dive center and restaurant.

Expect small dive groups of no more than eight for a calm, intimate experience. Barefoot Divers offers valet diving, taking care of every detail for its guests. Trips venture to reefs and walls including Mary’s Place, a top dive site just five minutes away.

The on-site Azure Restaurant dishes up international fusion for an elevated dining experience. Because of the resort’s small size and unique setup, it’s easy for dive groups to buy out the entire resort—or just the cay—for a private getaway.
