With a history of excellent customer service from the Utila dive industry and from the Utila restaurant business, I am happy to return to real estate with my service skills and with RE/MAX. It has always been a pleasure to serve and please customers, and I hope that you will give me the opportunity to serve you. Whether you are buying or selling real estate, a service-oriented agent means I am att

entive, I will listen to your requirements, I'll respond quickly, and I will be communicative, advising you every step of the way. Planning on traveling from Guatemala to Chile in 1999, I made a pit-stop in Utila to do some diving. 15 years, two children, two businesses and five properties later, I'm happy to still be here on Utila, excited to share my knowledge and experience of the island with you. Let me help you discover your piece of paradise - whether it be a new or second home, business or investment property. From my past life in professional engineering and business development working for large corporations like Xerox and Bell Canada, I bring professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm in representing you. After building up one of the most successful dive centers on Utila over the last 13 years based on impeccable customer service, I have returned to the real estate business I was in several years ago. Successfully listing and selling properties for over two years in Utila, I am excited to return to the real estate market, this time as RE/MAX agent, to a job I thoroughly enjoy as it allows me to be part of a dream. Seeing the real estate process through to the end, whether it be purchasing or selling, is about dedication, education, and discipline. Dedication to finding the right property or buyer, educating you on what you need to know when purchasing or selling your property and the discipline to follow through. Let my 15 years of Utila business and life experience help you do that, so you can make a smooth transition to island life.

The Utila Commercial Campus is offered at $849,000 on a huge 3 lot property of 4,790 sqm/1.18 acres.

With multiple buildings, climate-controlled spaces, office, bathrooms, security & plenty of room to expand, it could become a gym, spa, marketplace, coworking hub, offices, retail village or something entirely new.

We think part of the complex would be great as a food marketplace.

They have these all over Spain. So we mocked up an idea like what we saw in Europe this summer. Whaddya think?

🏡 As Realtors, we’ve seen A LOT of houses… and we have a HUGE, ever-growing list of ideas we’ve stolen along the way. 😂

One of the best parts of seeing so many different homes is finding those clever little design decisions that make us think, “Why doesn’t every house have this?”

If we were designing a house from scratch today, these would definitely make the list:

🚽 A separate toilet room in EVERY bathroom. Privacy while someone else is showering, brushing their teeth or getting ready. We’re completely sold on this one.

🪥 Double sinks in the primary en suite. Because some things just don’t need to be shared. 😂

💨 A fan in the closet. Especially in the Caribbean, where keeping the air moving makes a huge difference.

☕ An appliance garage in the kitchen. Keep the coffee maker, toaster, blender and everyday appliances plugged in and ready to use, then close the door and hide them all.

🔌 Charging drawers with outlets inside. Phones, watches, cameras, chargers and ALL THOSE CORDS stay plugged in but completely out of sight.

🧹 An outlet inside the broom closet. So the cordless vacuum can live AND charge there. Such a small detail, but genius.

After years of walking through homes, we’ve realized that it’s often the little things someone was smart enough to think about ahead of time that make it a home.

And our list keeps growing. 😂

So help us add to it!

If you could build or redesign your home knowing everything you know now, what would you absolutely include next time? Or what do you have now that you can’t live without?

It's funny how attached we can become to the homes we sell. In Utila's cash market, properties often stay on the market a little longer, so we get to know them well.

We'll definitely miss Bella Vista, but we're even more excited for the buyers and sellers as they begin wonderful new chapters.

Congratulations, and we wish you all the very best! 🥂🏡🌴

🏝️ A huge welcome to Utila’s newest homeowners, Peter & Marissa! ❤️

They just officially became Utila homeowners… even though they couldn’t be here in person for closing.

They’ve told us they’re “so stinking excited” to make Utila home, and now they’re already trying to figure out how to get back here sooner rather than later. We have a feeling the countdown has already begun! 🌴✈️

Congratulations, Peter & Marissa! We can’t wait to welcome you back to your little piece of paradise and to the wonderful community we’re so lucky to call home.

Everyone, help us welcome them to the island and share your favorite thing about living in (or visiting) Utila! 🌊☀️

And to our sellers, merci beaucoup for allowing us to be part of such an important milestone. What an exciting new adventure you have ahead with your restaurant in Belgium. It has been a pleasure helping you make this move, and we wish you all the very best for everything ahead.

📊 What’s actually happening in the Utila real estate market?

I know a lot of people who live here, own property here, or are simply curious about our market like to keep an eye on what’s happening, so here’s a look at the first half of 2026 compared with the same period last year.

🏡 Home sales increased 75%, while total home sales volume increased 85%.

🌴 Vacant lot sales increased 225%, with sales volume up 209%.

So what do those numbers actually tell us?

First, there was considerably more real estate activity in the first six months of this year. These numbers represent completed sales, not asking prices or properties simply being listed for sale.

For homes, the increase in sales volume was fairly close to the increase in the number of sales. So the higher dollar volume wasn’t simply the result of one unusually expensive property changing hands.

Vacant land saw the biggest change. The number of lots sold was more than three times what it was during the same period last year, making land one of the most noticeable shifts in our market so far this year.

There’s also the question I’m often asked: How much are people actually negotiating?

On average, homes sold for 95% of list price, while vacant lots sold for 93%. So yes, there is still some negotiating happening, but overall, completed sales have been relatively close to asking price.

The takeaway? The first half of 2026 was simply a much more active period for Utila real estate than the first half of 2025, particularly for vacant land.

I’ll keep sharing the numbers as the year progresses so we can see whether that trend continues.

And if you’ve been thinking about buying or selling, I hope you find this information useful in understanding what’s actually happening in our little Utila real estate market. 🏝️

Do you guys want an update on the Roatan market? It’s a very different story over on our neighboring island.

THIS is how Utila does Carnival! 🎉🇭🇳🌴

What a parade, and what an incredible Carnival this year! The costumes, music, dancing, colors, energy & everyone lining the streets made this one to remember.

There’s nothing quite like Carnival on a little Caribbean island. ❤️🌊

Who was out there celebrating? What was your favorite part?

🚨 🚨 Vacant land sales in Utila are up 225% in the first half of this year compared to the same period last year (through Q2). That’s more than TRIPLE the number of sales!

So please, don’t sleep on these lots. Our market is moving quickly now! 🌴

In fact, we were getting ready to feature 5 Utila lots under $60,000, and before we could even post them, the $45,000 property - 1.5 lots with a fence, just went under contract.

Now there are 4.

So what’s the difference between them?

Utila real estate is always a tradeoff between price, view, beach proximity & area. The question is, which matters most to YOU?

🏝️ Closer to the beach? You’ll generally pay more for the location.

🌅 Ocean views & sunsets? Elevated lots can command a premium for the view.

🌿 More land for your money? Inland properties can offer significantly more area while still being minutes from town & the sea.

💰 Lowest possible price? You may trade some view, area or beach proximity for a lower entry point.

There’s no “best” lot. There’s the best lot for YOU.

Which would you choose: 🏖️ beach proximity, 🌅 ocean views, 🌿 more land or 💰 lowest price?
