Welcome
to Mangrove Properties and the Mangrove Dock Development
Mangrove Dock is a boutique development on the edge of
Mangrove Bight on the North side of the island of Roatan just four minutes
walk away from West End where there are local bars, restaurants and typical
Caribbean stores. The development comprises nine 1800sq ft & 3600
sq ft water-front condos, all of which come fully furnished, fully decorated
and come with a private boat slip!
The lifestyle on Roatan is recognised as being quite simply “wonderful”.
You can ‘chill out’ and live life at a less stressful pace
while watching your children growing and playing in a safe environment.
You can stroll along moonlit beaches, swim in tropical waters or just
hang out and chew the fat in any one of a dozen characterful bars or just
chat with the locals about the islands fascinating history. People are
friendly here. They will wish you a ‘Good Morning’ and offer
to help…and all this is just two hours flight from the US.
There is something special about life on Roatan. Whether it is the sweet
fruits ripening on the trees, or the fact that even when it rains it isn’t
too long before the sun comes out again. Whatever it is, every year it
attracts some very special people who uproot from around the world and
settle on this beautiful Caribbean island.
The developer, Phillip Sampson says, ‘Every morning I wake up, look
out of my window, and seeing the beautiful Caribbean Sea, I think,…Yes,
it’s sunny........ again! ‘ As the island is a relative newcomer
to development, Roatan still offers the nature lover excellent opportunities
to view bird, reptile and marine life. ‘It’s 7:00am and I
am sitting on what is possibly going to be your very own boat slip, watching
a stork gliding over the bight and diving for fish. A few minutes ago
I saw a pod of at least ten wild dolphins investigating the entry to the
bay.’ While fishing, snorkelling or diving seeing dolphins is not
un-common. Green and Leatherback Turtles, Eagle Rays, Moray Eels, incredible
40 foot plus Whale Sharks (no teeth!) are just a few of the amazing marine
life that live and play literally 250 feet from where you will sit and
eat your breakfast.
Mangrove Bight is well known to the local fisherman for being one of the
few ‘bays’ that offers protection from Mother Nature when
she is having an off day. While sitting on the spacious balcony of your
condominium you can look out directly towards the mouth of the bay and
listen to the thunder of the waves crashing against the iron shore during
the summer storms. On quieter days you can walk along the iron shore or
take the short swim to the reef to marvel at the wonders of nature in
the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.
Mangrove Dock is a uniquely placed, luxury nine condo
boutique development, providing all the amenities for which you could
wish while still being located in a quiet natural bight. The 1800sq ft
or 3600sq ft turnkey condominiums are exquisitely designed and decorated
by Exhale International to achieve a unique and luxurious blend of both
island and sophisticated living.
If your idea of heaven is lying in a tropical roof garden relaxing on
an enormous lounger the size of two king size beds surrounded by a reflection
pool under the Caribbean sun (or moon!) while drinking a Margarita or
Monkey La La then, you will simply delight in the 350 degree panoramic
views offered to those fortunate enough to own one of only three exclusive
penthouse homes with 1800 sq ft of outside living space.
Exhale has furnished each home to an international standard using Spanish
tile, Indian slate, local hardwoods, Honduran granite, American linens,
napery, cutlery and fine glass and china. Everything, but everything is
included – even the art!
Our Mangrove Dock condominiums are furnished and decorated to the same
high standard throughout. The Master bedroom is luxurious and the second
bedroom equally so. Everything is to the same high standard.
The Flex room (third bedroom/office) comes complete with a desk, laptop,
printer, scanner, fax machine, VoIP phone, local pre-paid cell phone and
all the other basic accessories you would expect in an office while still
being available for guests with a pull-down queen size bed when required.
The living area has been equipped with a 42” plasma screen with
surround sound, DVD player & hi-fi system. The bedrooms all have 22”
LCD TV and DVD.
The balcony comes with a locally made harvest table from renewable Honduran
hard wood and an oversized barbeque for entertaining.
Each home will have a single parking space, which you can leave occupied
when your home is vacant if you so wish.
The centrally located private swimming pool will be approximately thirty
feet by fifteen feet; five feet at the deep end, and three feet at the
shallow end. Decking around the pool will be free flowing offering spacious
sun decks.
For those wanting the ultimate in outside living the penthouse units
come with 1800 square feet of private roof garden. The space has been
designed as an outside condo with the following features:
• A full outdoor kitchen, with sinks, cabinetry, BBQ and all necessary
accessories for outdoor entertaining.
• A full bathroom with shower.
• Garden area with planters for privacy screening.
• Relaxation living area.
• Two king size beds surrounded by a six-inch deep ankle pool.
• Spiral staircase connecting the roof garden and the condo private
balcony.
Should you wish your home to provide an early return upon your investment
we would be pleased to invite you to join our Home-owners Rental Association.
The condominiums command a high-end rental and, as you would expect, the
association offers a first class service. Guests are both collected and
returned to the international airport, inventory is checked and re-stocked
as required, maid service is available and the apartment is cleaned before
and after occupation whether for the owner or the rental guests. Other
services can be provided upon request - car rental, diving, island tours,
game fishing, visits to other islands etc
‘I would love to welcome you to my development and it would give
me great pleasure to show you around what could be your luxury home on
a wonderful tropical island.’
