Telamar Resort

Tela Hotels
The huge pool at Telamar Resort offers the perfect setting for all members of the family

Telamar is the most recognized of all beach Tela hotels. It has been around for as long as anyone recalls… Originally the old gated community where the executives of the Tela Railroad Company used to live. Telamar became a hotel when the company headquarters where moved to La Lima, adjacent to the San Pedro Sula International airport 50 years ago. The hotel originally used the old wooden homes that belonged to the fruit company. However a total renovation actually took out many of these old buildings. New buildings with the old banana era architecture were built in its place. There are still a few of the old banana era building structures within the premises.

Telamar offers an optional all inclusive operation. The resort has the largest pool in Tela, several restaurants and access to one of the best beaches in the Caribbean. It offers 273 luxury rooms and suites with all the amenities you would expect in a quality beach hotel around the world. Telamar also features the original 9 hole Tela Golf Course. This historic golf course was built by the Banana Company for the use of its executives.  If you do not want an all inclusive package at Telamar, you can alternatively book a room and pay for your extra expenses depending on your consumption. Telamar Resort is easily the most popular of Tela Hotels. [themify_hr color=”light-gray” width=”1″ border_width=”1″]

Hotel Belavista (Anexo Sherwood)

Another property owned by Mr. Sherwood Bonilla, but not on the beach. Personally, I don’t like the feel of the building. It is bit convoluted, with steep stairs, narrow hallways, small rooms. The prices however are right, and the location, only one block away from the beach is great too!

Puerto Rico

Downtown and right on the beach, the Hotel Puerto Rico offers some of the most budget accommodations on the beach in Tela. With 25 rooms, each with a private bath, air-conditioning and TV, the hotel does not offer much more. No internet and no hot water. There is a restaurant and bar overlooking the beach which offers typical food, including fried fish with plantains.
