Fort Morgan Cay, Honduras
Previous Page
The ivory sands and dreamily waving palm trees of Fort Morgan Cay hide a
history that belies the island's idyllic surface. A favorite hideout of one of
the most notorious real-life "Pirates of the Caribbean", Sir Henry Morgan, the
island is now offered for private rental as a luxurious escape from the modern
world.
Fort Morgan Cay is a picture-perfect image of the best that the
Caribbean has to offer. The island's 29 acres encompass long stretches
of the most beautiful beaches in the region, a mangrove-lined canal for
kayaking, and an intimate and well-named little cove known as "Silencio".
Best described as "elegant camping", the spacious home features four
bedrooms, two of which open to the bay to overlook the turquoise Caribbean
waters, and all are appointed with private baths. Providing maid and laundry
service, the attentions of a dedicated staff ensure that your experience at Fort
Morgan Cay includes all of the comfort and convenience of a large resort. Meals
by your personal chef are included in the rental cost, and also available for
guest use is internet access and a library and game room.
But with the unlimited use of equipment for snorkling, kayaking and other
watersports, it's unlikely that you'll be spending much time in the library.
Transported to a much simpler world, you'll certainly forgo surfing the net for
absorbing the natural beauty of the tropical environment with walks on the
pristine beaches or through the wild palm forest. The historic British fort from
which part of the island's name is derived lies romantically in ruin on the
coast, and also of interest is a well used by the original pirate inhabitants.
The nearby Roatan is the largest of the local islands, and available
amenities include shopping, a vibrant nightlife, and an international airport. A
mere two-hour flight from Houston or Miami, the Bay Islands of Honduras are one
of the closest Caribbean destinations for US travellers, with many flights
connecting directly to Roatan.
Offering the ultimate in resort convenience with the seclusion and intimacy
of a private island home, your time spent on the beautiful Fort Morgan Cay will
be an unforgettable experience you'll soon want to repeat.
