At Ridge Ranch Lodge come enjoy the natural wonders of one of the most exotic locales in the world.  Roatan, the proud epicenter of the Bay Islands of Honduras, sits astride the second largest barrier reef in the world.  This makes Roatan THE premier destination in the Caribbean for scuba diving and fishing, whether you like to hook them in the deep sea or take them on the fly.  Sail on the gentle trade-winds that keep our climate cooler than the mainland or take one of our boats for a spin.  A vacation at Ridge Ranch Lodge provides unlimited possibilities for shore based adventures.  It is a perfect place for adventure travel. 

The experience at our lodge is unlike a hotel: the natural flora and fauna of the tropical forest outside our front door is counterbalanced by the most abundant underwater ecosystem in the hemisphere.  We specialize in showing our guests some of the most unique experiences they have ever had, and we do it with the gentle pace that the Latin tropics are known for.  We offer ecotourism in lush tropical jungles that are similar to Costa Rica, but since we are on the undeveloped side of the island of Roatan, it is like going back in time 30 years.  This is the ultimate getaway destination, perfect for a break from the hustle and bustle and our seclusion makes us an unforgettable honeymoon destination.

Undeveloped Paradise!

Come hike the hills of our lush tropical forest, go fishing, swim, scuba diving, or just walk on a sun-kissed beach with ultra fine sand so gentle it caresses your feet.   Take a taxi into town, the Ridge Ranch way, on one of our horses: Sunday, Cinnamon, and Austin. 

Our beautifully appointed villa is many things: a quaint getaway nestled in the gentle hills, a base of operations for ecotourism, scuba diving, or a fishing lodge experience.  As the season and the mood changes, Ridge Ranch evolves into your own personal paradise.  Some of our regulars make a point of visiting at different times of the year to experience the unique pleasures that the different seasons have to offer.

The property before I developed it This is the view of Ridge Ranch when I feel in love with it and decided to create my "home away from home." Now I look forward to sharing it with you!	Home Depot, Honduras Style Ridge Ranch Lodge is in a remote undeveloped location so the lumber needed to be rafted in. It was floated to our dock, carried up the hill, and became Ridge Ranch Lodge	Framing Complete! I had a lot of fun with this as I started with lush tropical jungle and I pitched a tent while I built it with my crew.

 

My name is John Gately and I welcome you to my site.  Come on in and have a look around and see all that we have to offer.  I am sure you will fall in love with Roatan and my lodge just like I did.   Whether it is fishing, scuba diving, ecotourism, adventure travel, riding horses, or just relaxing on a Caribbean beach, a vacation at Ridge Ranch Lodge is unlike any experience you can find in Honduras or Costa Rica.  We would love to see you as our guest at Ridge Ranch Lodge, so give me a call or send an e-mail with the information below.  Please Note; As always, Ridge Ranch Lodge will never sell, rent, or give away any information about our customers.

I look forward to seeing you on Roatan!
