Seaside 3 Bedroom Villa with Pool in First Bight. Incredible views!
Welcome to The Mollusk, your private retreat on Roatan's south shore. This seaside villa features a sparkling pool with panoramic views of the Caribbean Sea, three comfortable bedrooms, and two full bathrooms—perfect for families or friends seeking comfort, tranquility, and adventure. Recent updates include air conditioning in the central living area, extending the comfort and convenience of climate control to all interior spaces.
Inside the villa
Blending breezy island style with the sights and sounds of the Caribbean, The Mollusk is thoughtfully designed for effortless indoor-outdoor living.
The airy primary suite features a king bed, en-suite bathroom, walk-in closet, and French doors that open directly onto the oceanview pool deck. Two additional guest rooms—each with a queen bed and closet—also offer French doors that lead to the front porch, giving everyone a quiet retreat of their own. A second full bathroom ensures convenience for all guests.
Gather in the comfortable central living room, cook meals in the fully equipped kitchen, and choose between indoor or oceanview dining—there’s a screened dining space in front of the pool that’s ideal for laid-back meals with a view. Modern comforts include air conditioning in all bedrooms and the main living area, cable TV, and fiberoptic Wi-Fi.
Outdoor spaces
Outside, the private oceanview pool takes center stage on the deck, framed by a plush outdoor sofa and a hammock in the shade—perfect for afternoon naps. A second, lower deck features a BBQ grill and an outdoor dining table, giving you even more space to gather and unwind.
Just steps away is the shared community dock, where you'll find some of the island’s best snorkeling right off shore, with vibrant coral and marine life waiting to be discovered. (Snorkel gear not provided—please bring your own.)
The experience
Life at The Mollusk is all about slowing down and settling into a laid-back, island rhythm. It’s quiet, it’s private, and it’s designed for travelers who enjoy doing their own thing.
You’ve got everything you need to live simply and comfortably—space to cook, a private pool to cool off, plus an absolutely killer view any time of day. Plus it's an equally fantastic jumping-off point for island adventures as it is a private haven for lazy days by the pool. This is the kind of place where you can unplug, move at your own pace, and enjoy a little independence.
Please note: This home is best suited for travelers, not tourists—those who appreciate simplicity, self-sufficiency, and the charm of casual island living versus luxury, nightlife, or concierge-style service. If you value nature, seclusion, independence, and meaningful island experiences, you’ll feel right at home.
What our guests say
"This place exceeded our expectations. It’s very private, it has a priceless view. It’s a comfy house and I definitely recommend it to anybody who wants to get away from the noise and the big crowds . The host was very helpful and answered every question we had. We are definitely coming back again!" —Hernan
Guest access
Your reservation at The Mollusk grants you exclusive access to the villa, grounds, and pool. From the moment you arrive until your departure, the amenities at our seaside retreat are yours to enjoy.
Exclusions: Please note that access to the detached garage is restricted. This area is designated for owner's storage and is not included in the guest-accessible spaces. There is ample parking for 2 vehicles in the driveway.
Privacy: While visits for pool cleaning and yardcare occur several times a week, we believe in providing you with the utmost privacy during your stay.
The neighborhood
Tucked along Roatan’s south shore, Lower First Bight is peaceful and off the beaten path—yet just 15 minutes from the restaurants, grocery stores, and essentials in French Harbour.
The rugged coastline, swaying palms, and sea views create a laid-back, natural vibe. A shared community dock gives you easy ocean access for a swim, snorkel, or just soaking in the view.
With a geographically central location on the island, lower First Bight is a great base for exploring Roatan from end to end. Head east for hidden gems, west for touristy highlights, or simply enjoy the peace of your own quiet corner.
That said, it’s not for everyone. If you’re after nightlife, walkable activities & restaurants, or resort-style service, this might not be your scene. This is a place for travelers who enjoy nature, don’t mind driving, and prefer a self-sufficient, laid-back stay.
Other details to note:
Electricity & Water Conservation Roatan's electricity is privately supplied and costly, and water is a precious resource. We appreciate your help in conserving both. The Mollusk is designed to capture the easterly trade winds, and many guests enjoy using natural ventilation instead of A/C when the weather allows. Please ensure all windows and doors are kept closed while air conditioners are running, and be sure to turn them off whenever you go out. PLEASE NOTE: Excessive or improper A/C use (such as leaving them on continuously throughout your stay, or with windows and doors open) will result in additional charges.
Power & Internet Interruptions Due to the island's infrastructure, we occasionally experience power or internet outages. These are infrequent and typically brief, but we cannot guarantee uninterrupted service.
Housekeeping Your cleaning fee covers full cleaning before check-in and after checkout. Mid-stay cleanings (including linen & towel laundering) can be arranged for an additional fee, based on availability. Self-serve laundry facilities are also available in-unit, if you'd like to refresh your wardrobe or your own linens.

Breathtaking views , loved everything about the property . The host was extremely attentive as well .
Great place. Quiet and relaxing. We enjoyed the view all day. The property was well equipped with everything you need to cook. Grocery store was close by. We would stay here again.
The views from the pool and patio area are amazing. We enjoyed looking out and watching the boats and wildlife. Stephanie is the best host we've ever had. She is incredibly responsive and so accommodating. Shortly after we booked our trip, she sent us a guide that was incredibly helpful in planning our trip.The house is very comfortable and well-equipped. We cooked in on several occasions and the kitchen had everything we needed.
We had a great stay.-The view and pool were incredible! Pool temperature was a teeny bit chilly when you first get in but after a bit feels great. The kids were constantly in the pool. - location was nice. drive to the house was super bumpy. The last ten minutes is on dirt road that has a ton of huge potholes, so make sure to plan accordingly when getting your rental car. The drive through that countryside is beautiful though… passing by grazing cattle, etc. feels remote but not too far away from town. We felt safe and walked around a bit, like to the public dock across the street where you can jump in the water. - The kitchen appliances have seen better days (the oven needed to be replaced while we were there, the blender was rusted, etc), but I think that’s part of life right on the beach with all that salty air. Property management was super responsive, and even stopped by when the oven stuff was happening to make sure everything was ok.- wished there were different couches on inside. The outdoor furniture they have in there slips around and the cushions and the slippery fabric slides everywhere when you’re trying to sit down…just not comfortable.Overall, a very beautiful location to stay and the pool, privacy, and view made it worth it for us.
The host was amazing and very responsive. The house was fully equipped with kitchen wear, soap, etc. which made for an easy stay. I wish there were hooks to hang towels, etc. but we managed just fine. We were 4 adults however the house would comfortably accommodate 6. Bring bug spray! You won’t be able to escape the little buggers. You definitely need a car (and the road is quite bumpy) but the house and views are worth it. Roatan is amazing and we look forward to returning to this re gal and the beautiful island.
