My wife and I have been to Ambergris Caye Belize several times and are considering it for a possible 6 month out of the year retirement spot in a few years. I have been looking at Roatan as a possible alternative but haven't done a lot of research yet.
While I can see Roatan is beautiful, I am concerned about safety and stability. If you look at the US media, close to 10,000 Hondurans are on the southern border of the US trying to get in to the US after leaving Honduras. Am I wise trying to get out of the US and into Honduras?
Is it safe to be in Roatan? Is it safe to invest in Roatan? Is the government stable enough that I should consider buying property in Roatan?
Thanks for your responses.
