Water Front Casita w pool On Tropical One Acre Estate

This inexpensive but still a beautiful unit, Casa Cowee’s Casita created for the budget travellers or as an addition to the larger houses. No AC but not needed as fans and not exposed to the sun just the breeze off the water. We have decided to create a great escape on the water for those looking for a laid back real Caribbean Island experience. We are located in a shoreline neighbourhood of real Islanders and expats from around the world. It is one of the few left in the Caribbean. Hopefully it never changes. This Island is wonderful oasis and there is no need to live in a gated community. The Islanders are wonderful and helpful.
The pool has a large deck and beautiful jungle setting. Go snorkelling off our dock with the snorkelling equipment that comes with the rental, to one of the most stunning reef formations in the Caribbean. (second largest reef in the world). You can sit on the dock and enjoy the dolphins and their shows every day. We suggest snorkelling with the dolphins!
New pool! The use of two single kayaks and one double along with a paddle board come with the property for our guests to use. Also we have a good selection of snorkelling gear for all ages.
There is a great spa a minute down the beach.
This a one acre private property with Casa Cowee VRBO 126086 as the main house and Temple Tree House VRBO 503528 high off the beach which is used for local access to the properties on it. The houses are designed to catch the breezes off the water and the casita never heats up. Sunsets are absolutely the most stunning from our home.
This is a one acre estate which is lush with many fruit trees including lemons, limes, mangos, bananas, avocados, guanaba, jack fruit, nuts etc.
The property is gated with a private circular drive around a massive Mango Tree and in the back there is a towering Rain Forest LeCeiba Tree that takes your breath away.
Just one to two minutes walk to 3 great restaurants and two fun bars. 10 Min. drive to West End which is filled with restaurants and bars. Or you can have our staff bring you local food which is delicious. There is a produce truck that comes by if you wish. We have someone you can hire to pick you up at the airport, stop for groceries and can arrange a boat for fishing and snorkelling tours and do all island tours.
A nice point also is the proximity of a very good clinic at Anthony's Key about a 3 min walk away and they also have a recompression chamber there. Great doctors and service if needed and not expensive in our terms at least.
Make yourself comfortable in this apartment, which features a private pool. There's a private balcony. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker, and housekeeping is provided on a limited basis.
Enjoy recreation amenities such as an outdoor pool or take in the view from a garden.
Guests will find features like onsite parking.

Love our stay
We just returned from two weeks in Roatan. Our second week was spent at Casa Cowee in the casita and it was wonderful. The Casa Cowee property is beautiful and Suzanne has been successful in making improvements to the property while keeping it true to island styles. Jose and Paul do an excellent job of keeping the property well maintained and are always available to provide assistance. The property managers Channin and Kimberly were very attentive even though we didn’t need to use their services much. As mentioned we stayed in the casita which suited us perfectly. It’s a bit rustic but not uncomfortable. There is comfortable seating inside (which we used on our two rain days) and comfortable seating outdoors on both of the casita’s private decks (we particularly enjoyed the upper deck). Suzanne was gracious enough to give us a tour of the main house (which is right above the casita) and there is nothing rustic about the main house – it is very nice! We did not tour the treehouse but it looks very nice and has it’s own private decks. They have recently installed a salt water pool and pool side deck which is a very nice touch and very private. Casa Cowee is close to a few restaurants, we tried the Bar Grill at Blue Bahia and the Sunken Fish at Tranquil Seas – both were excellent.

Perfect little casita!
We stayed in the bamboo casita for a week. It's small, efficient, comfortable, and has everything we needed. We loved it! Suzanne's crew - Channin, Kimberly, Jose, and our favorite, Gordo (a.k.a. Josef) were friendly and helpful. We loved meeting Suzanne and her sister, Ellen (and Barry too.) FUN people! The nearby bars and restaurants are fantastic and within walking distance. The sunsets are incredible and we loved hearing the dolphins calling from our room in the early hours. This is a nice spot away from the business of the west end, but still accessible. We bought fresh fruit off the local fruit truck and went kayaking and snorkeling (amazing snorkeling!) right off the beach. Thanks for sharing your little slice of Paradise with us!

Great place to unwind.
I would recommend this for anyone who wants to avoid the hustle and bustle of the busier beaches like west bay.

wonderful!
We had a wonderful time at Casa Cowee and thank you and the team for everything! We had a lot of fun and have a few people to thank! First, Channin is so good and was a world of assistance to us. From grocery shopping to excursions to island information – he is the expert! Kimberly was so nice and helpful to us as my mother was coming in later than our arrival – she is a host of information and was wonderful to us. Throughout the week, Jose was an angel! He was helpful, courteous and seemed to anticipate our needs without ever being intrusive. It was so nice to have him on the property – he was amazing. The house was wonderful – clean and beautiful. I have so many pictures of us on the deck – overlooking the ocean and sunsets….just gorgeous. The BBQ area was a hit and we used it a lot when we were there. It was very relaxing even with the holidays as the people of Roatan are so friendly and warm. And so willing to help each other out in any circumstance….after a big storm, a car was stuck and out of nowhere, so many people came to help. The ocean in front of the house is incredible – the amount of fish, sting rays and shells was like snorkeling in an aquarium. Our kids do not dive, but the next time we go back, we will be! Our trip to Daniel Johnson’s Monkey and Sloth Hangout was one of the highlights of the trip. Playing with monkeys was pure laughter and fun…holding a sloth is how everyone should start their day!!! Getting to West End and West Bay turned out to be very simple and we made a couple of trips, but we loved the serenity of Casa Cowee and were always so thankful of the house upon our return. Blue Bahia Bar and Grill was a favorite when we did not eat at home. Such great food at reasonable prices with such a warm staff – awesome. Reentry was tough, but our memories are keeping us going until we return. Happy New Year to you, Channin, Kimberly and Jose - thank you for making our trip so memorable!

Good beach access and snorkeling but lots of activity and noise from the islanders at all hours.
Casa Cowee is a beautiful place. Loved the local food and beach access is great. Good snorkeling right in front of the house and strong swimmers could easily reach the outer side of the reef for spectacular coral and abundant fish along the shelf (weather/wind permitting). I was quite disappointed in the amount of noise and activity from some of the locals at all hours of the night in very close proximity to the house. Mainly adolescent teens. Loud inappropriate language and music that will wake you after midnight. Jose the property caretaker is an outstanding, polite and attentive young man but I fear that asking him to patrol this type of activity is unrealistic. He is certainly willing to confront and ask these people to quiet down but we honestly had 2 nights out of 6 with uninterrupted sleep. Having heard one of these confrontations during the night following a noise complaint by other guests all I can say is I wouldn't want the job. Having said that, I can say people encountered around the island are friendly and courteous. Really enjoyed hiking through the botanical garden just up the road from the house (best $10 spent on our trip). I wish I had known that there is opportunity for fly fishing right off the bank all along Sandy Bay. Saw several bone fish and would have packed along a fly rod if I had known. I was told by Channin that no fishing license is required but didn't confirm this. Took Channin up on a snorkeling tour and island tour and enjoyed both.

Casa Cowee's Bamboo Casita – perfect little getaway for 2 ♥
We stayed at Casa Cowee's “Bamboo Casita” during the last week of January 2017.It's the perfect size studio for 2 people.Upon arrival, we had arranged to have the property mgr Kemberlee pick up us at the airport.She drove us to the local supermarket where we picked up groceries before arriving at Casa Cowee.The studio has 2 ceiling fans that provided great circulation throughout.The windows/louvers provided lots of natural light and allowed the fresh air flow through.The studio was furnished with a comfortable queen size bed with cotton sheets, large closet & personal safe to lock up your valuables.The kitchen was equipped with a table & chairs, fridge, toaster-oven/cook-top, dishes & other items you may need during your stay.The bathroom is very spacious,large shower, good water pressure.There is a large wrap around deck with a hammock, small table & chairs. Nice place to sit & relax after a day of adventure on the island.The private upper deck overlooks the clear blue ocean.It's the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee, home cooked meals or a nice cold beverage while watching the beautiful sunset.The ocean is short walk away, within a minute you can be jumping off the private dock or snorkeling out to the reef.Casa Cowee has 2 kayaks that we used to paddle out to the reef, tie up to the buoys & snorkel in the pristine waters & view the colorful fish that the reef housed.A 10 minute walk away,you can enjoy the Carambola Gardens.While there you can hike to the top for a great view of the bay.There are several restaurants within walking distance were you can enjoy a nice meal & and have a cold beer with the locals.West End is a short bus ride away.Once there, jump on a water taxi to the popular West Bay.The beaches are beautiful, but very busy.While in Roatan, we booked 2 excursions with Channin Bodden Tours.Tour #1 consisted of the Jungle Top Adventures Zip-line (best zip-line ever) & an island sightseeing tour.Channin indulged us with the culture & history of Roatan plus his own family history on the island.Tour #2 was a ½ day snorkeling adventure.We seen a variety of fish & even a turtle.The water was warm, clear with great visibility.I would highly recommend Channin Bodden Tours.Casa Cowee has an awesome onsite caretaker named Jose.If there is anything that you need,just call his name and he will assist what ever way he can.1 week just isn't long enough in Roatan. If I were to come back to the island ,I would defiantly stay at Casa Cowee

CASA COWEE / CASITA / TREE HOUSE TEMPLE
The property is well groomed with mature fruit trees fresh limes/lemons avocado coconut mango its literally just falling off the trees. The large sprawling decks patios with constant breezes made relaxing around the property a nice retreat from adventures around the island. Great location to Dolphins and some really great beach restaurants good snorkeling out front lion fish and many other critters. We liked it very much BEACH BAR and GRILL was our jumping off point for many adventures and its a stones throw from this property. Channin and Kemberlee are very helpful getting you squared away when arriving and providing second to none fishing snorkel and island tours. Jose is a full time caretaker at this residence he is always helpful and easy to reach from the local cell phone provided at the property he is a great guy bringing fresh fruit etc from the property just really helpful snorkels kayaks etc all provided at the property. This private residence has a good dock for fishing with locals Mr Johnson a local carver always working on something make him an offer when he is finished.
