Turtle Crossing and The Turrets – Oceanview Homes on Roatan’s South Shore

Turtle Tucked into the hillside along Roatan’s south shore in West Bay, Turtle Crossing and The Turrets are two distinct but neighboring communities offering tranquil escapes with panoramic ocean views. Known for their traditional Caribbean-style homes featuring hardwood floors, spacious decks, and high ceilings, both neighborhoods offer sweeping views of the Bay of Honduras, the Honduran mainland, and the island’s southern coastline. The area benefits from consistent trade winds, providing a refreshing breeze year-round.

While it’s a 10- to 20-minute walk to West Bay Beach depending on which community you’re in, Island House can arrange quick and affordable local transportation for guests who prefer not to rent a vehicle.

What's the Difference Between Turtle Crossing and The Turrets?

While both communities share the same peaceful hillside setting and south shore views, there are some notable distinctions:

  • Turtle Crossing sits lower on the ridge, offering a quieter, more nature-focused atmosphere with views primarily facing south toward the Bay of Honduras and the Honduran mainland. It’s a 10- to 15-minute walk to West Bay Beach.
  • The Turrets sits higher — at the very tip of the western point — and is even more secluded, with very little public traffic passing through. Its elevated position means many homes enjoy views of both the south and north shores of the island simultaneously. West Bay Beach is approximately a 15- to 20-minute walk away.

Both communities feature homes with access to community pools and the full range of modern amenities Island House guests expect.
