Kimpton Grand Roatan Resort and Spa

6 Best Hotels for Seeing the October Annular Solar Eclipse - AFAR

"Perched on Roatán’s southern tip near the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef, this recently opened resort features 119 rooms, suites, condos, and bungalows accented with local artwork and Paya islander artifacts, and will experience about 4 minutes and 39 seconds of annularity from 11:38:06 a.m. to 11:42:45 a.m. local time. Many rooms offer private balconies with tropical forest views, and guests can view the ring of fire from their balcony, the gumbo-tree–ringed outdoor pool, or while paddling the Caribbean Sea with on-site kayak rentals. Dining options include multiple restaurants with Mediterranean-influenced and beachfront concepts for post-eclipse meals and drinks." - Stephanie Vermillion
