Kimpton Grand Roatán Resort & Spa, Roatán, Honduras
The best hotels offer more than somewhere to lay your head. They connect you to local communities and provide the kind of memory-making activities that tempt you to extend your stay. For our annual Best of the World list, National Geographic’s editors, writers, photographers, and explorers scoured the globe in search of new hotels and lodges that embrace this sense of place.
The world’s second largest barrier reef lies just offshore from this 119 room property, meaning guests can easily access all of the water activities (snorkeling, diving, and fishing) that make this region of Honduras popular. The resort’s Kao Kamasa Spa uses locavore ingredients—cacao, avocados, algae—in its facials and massages. Fair-trade crafts made nearby and sold in the gift shop help support the surrounding community of 12 villages.Read more…

The Number One Spot for Fine Dining in Roatan

Luna Munaa, the restaurant onsite at the Ibagari Boutique Hotel in Roatan, Honduras, provides its guests with the most exquisite food including gluten free, vegetarian, and even vegan options. Luna Muna’s menu features an extremely wide variety of cuisine in a relaxed, fun, and memorable environment. Sit back on the dock by the oceanfront, listen to the waves, and get lost in the atmosphere of the restaurant. The ambiance of Luna Muna is the perfect relaxing getaway, especially at night when the trees light up with white holiday lights and the beaches get lit by blowing torches.

The Best Wildlife Cams to Celebrate World Wildlife Day – Reef Cam
These live streams provide a front-row seat to wildlife across the globe.This camera is located on the south shore of Utila, a small island within the Bay Islands off Honduras. It shows the thriving marine life found along a reef wall 20 feet under the ocean surface and 400 feet from the shore: here, brightly colored fish, sharks, eels, and sometimes sting rays swim by.
