Nice Home Base

We enjoyed our stay. The apartment is convenient (we enjoyed walking!) and about 1.5 km from either end of the main road... Bando Beach one direction, Chepes Beach the other direction. Owners are responsive and prompt.

We enjoyed our stay - the unit was clean and had everything we needed. We were grateful to have a golf cart and traveling around was ideal. Top floor unit was hot. All and all a great trip!

Quiet, peaceful, comfortable

Being a little higher in elevation, open windows allowed the breezes to cool us at night. Screens on all windows were great! We loved exploring the neighborhood. Friendly and knowledgeable manager made sure we had all we needed. One glitch - on arrival my phone could not find any wifi, thus my GPS could not work, and I could not connect to the site telling the location of the house. I also couldn't remember if the manager was meeting us at the ferry or the house... We had offered to walk to the property, but it was actually much further than it looked on maps (we are both way past 70), so owners should have told us to take a pedi-cab.

Great location, hospitable hosts

This was our first trip to Utila and boy were we happy to be off of Main Street - way too noisy with all of the 4-wheelers, motorcycles, tuk-tuks (pedestrians do NOT have the right of way in Utila). The Gardens is in a perfect location if you want to be able to walk to restaurants and shops but far enough away from Main St. to be quiet. The apartment itself was simple but nice. The owners provided a convenient starter supply of coffee, water, TP, and paper towel, and went out of their way to offer assistance. We went shopping in town and ran into Tony who offered to drive our groceries back so we could carry on with our dinner plans. NICE! The Wi-Fi was also good, better in the early and late evening when others were not on but certainly sufficient for email, FB, etc. In short, the location and hospitality cannot be beat.

Tony and Jo couldn't be more Awesome!

With their casual island groove, they have thought of everything... clean, secure properties and with all the extras you can imagine. Their connections throughout the island made for one of the easiest vacations we've ever been on. Would we go back? We are!

Enjoyable experience.

Clean, comfortable, well appointed apt. situated convenient to restaurants and bars, but far enough from hustle of main street. Best part of stay were the hosts, Jo and Tony. Picked us up, arranged for soda and beer delivery, loaned us things from their kitchen, got us a deal on a scooter, sold the best orange juice you'll ever taste and were there whenever we needed. (just not before 9am) Would definitely stay again.

Great Experience!

The apartment was great, and the hosts were excellent. They gave us many suggestions of what to do throughout our time in Utila. It isn't located on the beach, so we ended up renting a golf cart. Which I would highly recommend, not only for returning to the house, but also driving around the island.

Beautiful apartment with the sweetest owners!!!

I have nothing but glowing remarks for The Gardens andn Jo and Tony. I arrived with multiple heavy suitcases and a cat that had just traveled 13 hours. They scooped me up from the ferry, helped me get kitty litter immediately and gave me a nice, personal tour of utila. Upon reaching my apt, I was super impressed and felt right at home. Jo and Tony have literally taken me under their wing and helped me get adjusted to life in utila. Anything I needed, they went out of their way to help me without a moment to lose. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at their apartment. It was bright, breezy, quiet, well-secured, beautifully landscaped and extremely comfortable. Great for anyone staying in Utila for a little while that wants a clean, beautiful spot removed far enough from the hustle and bustle but still close enough to shops, restaurants. Etc. Thanks for a spectacular experience :)

Our Time in Utila

Everyone says that Tony and Jo are wonderful people - they are correct. The gardens is an excellent place to stay. We stayed on the top floor, there was a living room and kitchen and then an air-conditioned bedroom. Well designed, functional space. We had two balconies - great for drying our stuff after diving. If you are going to Utila - you will enjoy the island - strongly consider staying at the Gardens, you won't be disappointed.

Wonderful place to stay on Utila

I rented one of the top apartments at The Gardens of Utilahomeaway for the month of May in 2015. The building is up the hill from the main drag so it’s close to the action without being in the middle of it. In other words, you can get a good night’s sleep here. The owners, Tony and Jo, are great. They have lived on Utila for years and they know everybody. If you need something, they will either get it for you, or know someone who can. Need a restaurant or dive shop recommendation? Talk to Tony and Jo. They were also wonderful when I got sick, stopping in to check on me and bringing electrolyte solution and Ensure to keep my strength up. Really sweet people. The apartment itself was perfect. It was a one bedroom with ensuite bathroom and a full kitchen. I never turned on the AC since electricity is so expensive on the island, but each room did have a ceiling fan. Cross-breezes through the open windows also helped keep the heat down. The bed was comfortable and Blanca came in once a week to clean. Water isn’t free but it is pretty cheap and you can arrange with Tony and Jo to have it delivered by the jug as needed. Likewise with electricity. It is not part of the rent. You pay for what you use, which is great motivation to not leave the AC running all day while you’re on the beach. There is a meter in the apartment that shows how many KwH are available. Just give money to Blanca or Tony & Jo when the meter balance gets low and they will top off the account. Just for comparison sake, I used about 6 KwH a day on average, which equated to ~ $3/day. Keep in mind that you are on an island in Honduras, so you have to set your expectations accordingly. Over the course of the month, there were electrical outages at least weekly, some lasting up to 6 hours. Also, the wi-fi could be frustratingly slow. Like I said, Utila is not 1st world so you can’t expect a 1st world infrastructure. That said, it is still a lovely place to relax and do some diving, and The Gardens is a great place to lay your head at the end of the day.

Great place

We have know Jo and Tony for years but had never stayed in one of their properties. The Gardens is a well maintained property in a quiet part of Utila. Jo and Tony are great hosts and will make sure you know your way around the island. You will not find a better place to stay for the price. Oh yeah, there's free apple bananas most of the time also.

Great Vacation

Tony & Jo provided "insider" information to help us plan our trip. They were great hosts and met us at the pier when we arrived. Once we were settled in, they gave us a tour and introduced us around. They even had dinner with us on the first night and gave us their cell phone in case we needed anything during our visit. The apartment was just as described, clean and very private. The location was great for us and we were able to sleep with the windows open. We would definately stay there again.

Fantastic Hosts

I found the Gardens online and ever so glad I did. If you want a great place to stay look no further. Jo & Tony are the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure to meet. Long before I departed for Utila I was in contact with them and was so looking forward to meeting them both. You cannot find anyone else who enjoys what they do more.There is nothing that they are not capable of doing or sourcing for you, I thought that they were going out of their way for myself but found out when I met them that is who they are. Nothing is overlooked, however large or small. They as most Utilians treat you with respect and with absolute professionalism. It is very hard to put into words what the two of them will do for you. Great location, GREAT support staff, clean, comfortable and private. I read many reviews about accommodations on Utila and kept on going back to the Gardens site and so glad I did. All in all it was a great time with them and will definitely going to go back to THE GARDENS. Thanks Tony, Jo and Staff.

The Gardens

Wonderfully quaint. Our stay at The Gardens for six weeks was more than expected, fully furnished, clean, and fantastic hospitality. Weekly cleaning service, fresh flowers upon request, and Just down the road from the water. Very safe and away from the noise of town. Perfect get away spot for anyone.

My Favorite Vacation

Tony and Jo are experienced travelers and have created a place that they would want to stay in. We've been around a bit, and I fully agree with their choices. My wife and I were at the Gardens for 48 days, and I wish we'd never have had to leave. They are the most personable and knowledgeable people you could ever hope to meet in the Caribbean, and they simply enjoy making your life easier. The property is lovingly designed and maintained, and no request or need is too small or too stupid (I lost our apartment key twice on the beach, and they never gave me crap about it - though my wife did). They stopped by nearly every day to see how things were going, and when we'd run into them in town they'd always take the time to ask how we were doing and if we needed anything. I can't say enough about their hospitality and kindness; they are great company and seem to get real JOY from helping idiots like me. Juan and Blanca work their butts off for them, and they are the kind of people you would want working for you. They were amazing, and I am a better person for having known them. Utila is not Disney World, Jamaica or Roatan. It is a far better and more interesting place in my reckoning, and Jo and Tony are absolutely the best people I can imagine to introduce you to, and make you comfortable in this very special island.
