Paradise as it was intended! Set out over the turquoise Caribbean waters in the calm Utila Bay, surrounded by spectacular coral reefs, Utila Lodge is the perfect place for a relaxing getaway or adventure vacation.

Enjoy personalized service and five-star hospitality! Come and experience the casual charm of this family-owned and operated resort. Purchased in 1993 by Jim and Kristy Engel, Utila Lodge has been transformed into the warm and welcoming haven that it is today.

You will begin to feel at ease as soon as you enter the resort’s relaxed and informal setting, step foot on their private docks, or gaze out on peaceful surroundings.  Or perhaps you will feel invigorated by the many activities that are available to you. Be it snorkeling, kayaking, fishing, hiking, bird watching, diving, or shopping; the possibilities for adventure are unlimited!

Retreat from everyday responsibilities, come and relax in the welcoming lodge. The natural wood facilities are built for comfort and convenience, all while making the most of breathtaking ocean views.

In newly updated rooms, guests enjoy cool ocean breezes and all the amenities of home. Eight air-conditioned rooms are situated directly over the calm waters of the Caribbean. Sip your morning coffee as you lounge in an oversized hammock on your private balcony. Hot coffee can be brought to your room every morning if you wish, free of charge!

Each room enjoys:

• Ocean views
• Bathroom with hot water shower and dual vanities
• Two comfy beds- a double and a single
• Reading lamp
• Ceiling fans
• Cable TV with remote control
• Separate outside area for drying your dive gear

Utila Lodge guests dive from the resort’s 41-foot dive boat, the Sea Sprite. PADI-certified Divemasters will set up your gear for you and take all the hassle out of diving. Guests generally enjoy three dives per day including two dives in the morning and one afternoon or night dive. More or less dives per day can be arranged upon request.

The Utila Lodge offers many other dive amenities. For example:

• Rinse tanks
• Separate rinse tanks for cameras both on board the boat and a shore equipment storage area
• Nitrox tanks (mixed on site)
• Trimix blends
• Rebreather-friendly facilities
• Fresh fruit on the boat during the surface interval
• Small group diving, accompanied by a divemaster, if you prefer.
• A private divemaster may be arranged upon arrival.

With a secluded feel, easy access to town, and much to offer, it is easy to understand why Utila Lodge has been named the best hotel in Utila!
