Do
you accept credit cards?
Yes, we accept Master Card, VISA, and American Express.
Where
do I keep my valuables?
Bring only what you will need. A safe deposit in the Main Office
is available for the convenience of our guests. Access to its contents
is during office hours.
What
is the food like?
We serve three meals a day at our inviting restaurant with high
cathedral ceilings and spectacular ocean views. Breakfast consists
of a varied daily selection of items such as French toast, eggs,
bacon, sausage, pancakes, fresh fruit, homemade breads or the local
favorite, tortillas and beans. Lunch and Dinner are set menus that
offer fresh seafood, pasta, chicken and beef dishes with vegetables
prepared with Caribbean flair. A vegetarian plate is always available,
and with advanced notice, the kitchen can accommodate special dietary
needs. Be sure to let us know if you need a cake for a special occasion.
Are
there snacks available?
A selection of chips and candy are sold at the gift shop. Everyday
we serve appetizers at Happy Hour Time by the bar.
Is it true you have coffee, juice or tea service in the
room?
We have a Good Morning Coffee service for those who wish to take
coffee, juice or tea in their room prior to 7:00 am. There is a
sign-up sheet at the front desk every evening where you can place
your request for the next morning.
Tell me about the Bar?
Bar hours are 10:30 am to 11:30 pm. We offer a wide range of tropical
drinks, as well as cold sodas and beer, which are served at the
bar, the pool, or the beach. We also offer a variety of fine wines
for your enjoyment. Individual coolers are provided in each room
so you may carry beverages to secluded spots on the island. Beverages
are not included in your resort rate.
How do I do laundry?
Simply leave your dirty clothes in the basket with the Laundry List.
The housekeeper will wash, iron and fold them, usually the same
day. The cost is $10.00 per load. Dry cleaning is not available
on the island.
What
about tipping?
We believe our staff provides the best service when their tips are
a result of their actions. Therefore, tips are not automatically
included in the package. For your convenience, we offer a tipping
guideline based on previous guests. Actual amounts should be adjusted
to reflect your satisfaction with the services provided. Special
tips to a favorite staff member is welcomed. Tipping envelopes are
available at checkout.
Do you have a beach?
Yes, we have two white-sandy beaches right in front of the resort.
The beaches are very safe and fun for snorkeling, swimming or just
floating around.
Nude
beach?
Guests can pretty much do whatever they want. On the beach it’s
no problem, although some of the staff are a bit shy. As far as
our “official” policy, as long as other guests are not
disturbed or uncomfortable, all is well. In the past we have had
guests go topless on the dive boat to get sun, and we have even
hosted a naked diver retreat. Just remember that the beach is not
necessarily a nude one. Other guest will be using it clothed, unless,
of course, they can be convinced otherwise.
What
will I see underwater?
You will see some of the most incredible marine life in the reefs
of Guanaja. In the waters surrounding Posada del Sol
you can find one of the most biologically elaborate and diverse
marine-ecosystems in the world. We also have a variety of dives
available, over 50, from wrecks to walls to volcanic caves for you
to discover and explore.
Can
I go fishing?
We have some of the finest bone fishing in the world just minutes
from Posada del Sol; the flats are literally five
minutes away from the resort. We can also arrange all day deep sea/blue
water fishing excursions.
What
about hiking on the island?
There are local trails that the adventurous can hike. We have behind
the resort a hike we call "The No-Excuse Hike", which
takes you up along our 1,100-foot top of the mountain and down to
the other side of the property. We can also arrange a guided waterfall
hike, where we take you on a 30-minute hike up to a natural waterfall.
Both hikes require good shoes.
What
type of tours do you have?
We have weekly tours of the local towns, Savannah Bight and “Bonacca
Town”, and a visit to the local ocean aquarium. We also can
arrange tours to the mainland for river rafting and the Ruins of
Copan. Tours of the mainland of Honduras can be set up through the
internet or at the resort.
What do I need for the tours?
For local town tours you will need a good pair of shoes, your bug
spray, a hat and sunscreen and a couple of dollars spending money.
Most of the tours are not very strenuous, but we will tell you ahead
of time if they will require extra effort. Mainland tours are either
walking or bus tours, but we will let you know ahead of time.
What other activities besides diving, fishing and tours
are available?
There is never an end to adventure at POSADA DEL
SOL. Along with great diving and fishing, the outdoor enthusiast
can enjoy kayaking, tennis, snorkeling or simply enjoy the sun.
For the health conscious there is a weight room available.
Do
you have programmed activities?
We also have a picnic at a beautiful beach on the other side of
the island, an evening Beach BBQ, a Rum Punch Sunset Cruise, and
a Honduras Gift Bazaar.
Do
I need bug repellent?
You should bring with you bug repellent such as "Off,"
Avon's "Skin So Soft," or "Ben's." The "sand
flies" or "no-see-'ums" will have a hard time getting
to you with a little preparation. Fortunately we are on the windward
side of the island and the almost constant tropical breeze helps
keep them away.
Would
you help me prepare a special celebration?
We can also do birthday, anniversary, graduation, retirement and
'special occasion' celebrations. We will require advanced notice
and details of the celebration or event.
