Utila's Peaceful South Shore
A Different Kind of Caribbean Escape
Tucked away on Utila's peaceful South Shore, The Hacienda is a small, secluded beachfront retreat created for a different kind of Caribbean stay. Here, life moves at an easier pace—quiet mornings by the water, afternoons in the Caribbean and evenings over wonderful food and drinks. Intimate, uncrowded and genuinely welcoming, The Hacienda feels less like a traditional resort and more like having a beautiful Caribbean beach house of your own.

The Caribbean, Just Outside Your Door
Step from The Hacienda onto our private sandy beach and into the clear, calm Caribbean. Swim, snorkel the reef, paddle along the South Shore—or simply settle into a chaise lounge and let the day unfold.
Exceptional Dining,

One of the pleasures of staying at The Hacienda is enjoying wonderful food and drinks without having to leave. Dine indoors or outside in our tropical courtyard, with thoughtfully prepared dishes from around the world, craft cocktails, imported beer and fine wine.

Stay in Spacious Beachfront Apartments
Choose from spacious King Studios and our One-Bedroom Apartment, with king beds, kitchens or kitchenettes, air conditioning and private outdoor spaces—all just steps from the beach and Caribbean.

About The Hacienda
We’re Liane and Dan. We dreamed of creating a place where life could feel a little simpler, warmer and more connected—and found it here on Utila’s peaceful South Shore.
The Hacienda is our home as much as it is a place to stay. We love sharing it with people from around the world and creating the kind of genuine hospitality where guests can relax, feel at home and enjoy one another.
