Roatan has an International Airport
IMPORTANT TIP: book flights separately
This is because flight search engines aren’t good in this part of the world
1) Check flights from your place to an aiport with a direct flight, e.g. Miami, Houston, Atlanta, Denver, Madrid, San Pedro Sula, Palmerola or Tegucigalpa
2) Book a flight from there to Roatan International Airport
(Ferrys go from La Ceiba as well, but this option requires a bit of DIY travel experience. It’s safe, but ask a local for guidance.)
Plan to arrive at least one day before the conference, and leave the day after, to enjoy the full experience

Roatan has plenty of options to stay, but we encourage you to pick one of the following three to best arrange on-site transport:
1) Entrepreneurs’ Villa in Palmetto Bay
Located a 20 minutes drive from Prospera in a group house with prices ranging from $240 to $800 for 4 nights
2) Las Verandas, Pristine Bay
Within the Prospera zone, close to the Beach Club, a 20m ride to the Beta Building
This option starts at $800 for 4 nights
Just outside of Pristine Bay, this option is a 10-15 minute ride to both conference venues
This option starts at $400 for 4 nights

Safety: the island is very safe. Just don’t do things you shouldn’t do anywhere: don’t go out at night on your own, in sketchy areas.
Transport: Your conference tickets fully cover the cost of transportation each day.
A driver will pick you up from the airport the day before the conference (not if you come earlier).
A driver will take you to and from the conference, and to locations that are part of the program.
A driver will take you back to the airport on the last day of the conference, or the day after.
If you want to be more flexible, we recommend the following contacts:
Rental cars - Are easy and affordable to come by ($40-60 per day)

Avoid walking alone on long, empty stretches of beach.
Avoid Coxen Hole, Las Fuertes and neighbourhoods that seem sketchy on foot at night.
