About this property

Stunning Temple Tree House, private pool! Romantic Beach Getaway on 1 acre

We just finished our new pool with large decks December 2019. This pool is exclusively for the Temple Tree House.
Just steps down to the beach with your own outdoor shower. Fully renovated in 2022. Large queen bed and linens. Bedroom has it's own large deck with hammock. Full deck outside the full louvered glass front of this True Island getaway where you enjoy the soothing Caribbean breezes. Everything is screened of course. Open concept living area with fridge, stove, microwave, toaster, blender, French press. Another hammock and table and chairs on the front deck for hours of privacy reading and sleeping. There is a BBQ kitchen used by both houses. We ask you to clean the grill when finished it is ready for others use.
Go snorkelling off our dock with the snorkelling equipment that comes with the rental, to one of the most stunning reef formations in the Caribbean. (second largest reef in the world). The dock is used by local kids occasionally. It’s fun to watch their antics! We suggest snorkelling with the dolphins at Anthony’s key a short walk.
The use of two single and one double kayak are provided for our guests. Channin Bodden (our manager) has his own tour business and he can arrange island tours.
This a one acre private property with Casa Cowee as the main house and Temple Tree house high off the beach The houses are designed to catch the breezes off the water so the use of AC is really not necessary. In fact I normally have to use the light weight duvets. Sunsets are absolutely the most stunning from our home.
This is a one acre estate which is lush with many fruit trees including lemons, limes, mangos, bananas, avocados, nuts etc.
The property is gated with a private circular drive around a massive Mango Tree and in the back there is a towering Rain Forest LeCeiba Tree that takes your breath away.
Just one to two minutes walk to 4 great restaurants and three fun bars. Including Guava Grove where you can catch daytime entertainment and use their large pool with a swim up bar. Great food! 10 Min. drive to West End which is filled with restaurants and bars to step it up a pace. Or you can have our property manager hire a private chef for a night. There is a produce truck that comes by every other day if you ask Jose he can have them stop in our drive.
Everything for a true island experience.
This property is located 75' away from the larger Casa Cowee VRBO listing #126086 So if you are looking for space for up to 9 people. Rent the whole property.
Ask Channin our property manager for pick up and drop off at the airport along with your grocery stop. He will quote you.. There is the best health clinic just minutes walk at Anthony's Key Resort and they usually fill prescriptions there.
Get ready to experience real island living.

Relaxing and beautiful location on the water.
My husband and I spent 10 nights at the Temple Tree House. The owner and staff took great care of us. The kitchen and outdoor grill were perfect for cooking. It was great to be able to snorkel, paddle, and scuba dive with a local dive shop without getting in a car. The pool is refreshing and the tropical vegetation around the pool and grounds is beautiful. We drove into West End a couple of times but we were happy to get back to the peace and quiet of the Temple Tree House. It was the perfect spot for us.

Perfect honeymoon!
The Treehouse is a beautiful place with a spectacular view! The reef is stunning and the water is crystal clear. Just the perfect place for our honeymoon! José, the groundskeeper, is amazing and makes sure to help with any needs that come up. We will definitely be returning!

Perfect
Beautifully designed and appointed house built high on a slope above the water. 52 steps down to beach, dock and great snorkelling just beyond. Lushly and densely planted grounds: hybiscus, palms, almond and several other varieties of trees. Very private (in contrast to the zoo at West Bay and West End). Great view of sea and sunsets from well shaded deck. Spacious bedroom and bath. Second deck off bedroom which we used to dry our snorkeling gear. Friendly owner and resident staff. When we come back to Roatan, this is where we will be.

My name is Suzanne Boyce and I purchased The Casa Cowee Estate (2013) from the original owners that had it built in 1974 after falling love with Roatan and the local people on a road trip from Aspen Colorado. They commissioned the design with a famous local architect to capture the luscious warm breezes off the Caribbean. The same love of the island and it's people and slow lifestyle took hold of me. Unfortunately I still have to work in Canada but good for you as you will have a chance to have the same great experience while I work to get back down there. The property has undergone many upgrades since 2013 and we are continuing to improve. Not to say we are changing anything that will lose the total island feel of unique rustic Casa Cowee. Did I mention the sunsets?
Go to Casa Cowee (the main house) VRBO 126086 Both houses can be rented together sleeping up to 9.

Why they chose this property

If you are looking for a gated community and concierge service this is not it. This is a one acre private estate that is planted with an abundance of tropical trees, rainforest trees, fruit and fragrant flowers. It sits right on the beach but sits higher on a hill to catch the caressing Caribbean breezes. The house is yours to live a self sufficient island life. . You have towels provided and bed linens. The towels are changed out once during the week.
Another reason to visit Roatan is, it was well outside "hurricane alley" in the Caribbean. The last instance was in 2001 but because the second largest reef in the world surrounds the island it is rare to see waves hit the shore. Floridians and Texans head to our tropical island during the hurricane season.
This Island is wonderful oasis and there is no need to live in a gated community. The Islanders are wonderful and helpful. We have a full time caretaker living on the property, Jose. He has brought Casa Cowee back to it's old glory. Jose is there almost 24/7 to maintain the property but helps you with your needs. We also have Channin and Kim Bodden who own Channin Bodden Tours as your property managers. They have a great tour company with vehicles to take you on tours and a boat for fishing and snorkelling adventures. If you prefer to rent your own car they can arrange that for you. There is no guessing. Just ask and you will have all the info you need.
Snorkelling is fantastic right out front and you have all the dining and entertainment right on our beach. Divers just walk down to one of our two Sandy Bay Beach Shops.
Great local food also.

What makes this property unique

Temple Tree House is part of the Casa Cowee estate VRBO 126086 and the new Bamboo Casita and can be rented at the same time for up to 9 people so you will have up to four separate bedrooms three and a half baths and three kitchens
The location is fantastic as you are only a couple of minutes walk to the best clinic on the island at Anthony's Key Resort. They also have a recompression chamber and if you need a prescription they usually fill it there. The decks overlook the water and you will experience breath taking sunsets.

Water

Along with our new 14x12' x 4' deep cocktail pool we have our own dock to swim off of and swim out to the reef to snorkel or book a snorkelling tour with Channin and Kim Bodden our property managers, to adventure to some other spectacular sites. You have use of our two kayaks and snorkelling equipment with your house.

Walk to everything on Sandy Bay, Diving, Dining, bars, Fishing, Spa. 200 ft by water from Anthony's Key Dolphins. 10 Min drive to lively West End.
No car necessary for two people. Channin Bodden Tours is the best for great Island Tours. They have a web site.
