Our Michelin Key

According to the Michelin Guide, receiving 1 Key means “a very special stay.” This distinction is granted only to hotels that are true gems, places with soul, character, and an identity so distinctive that it transcends expectations. These are spaces that break the mold, offer something different and memorable, and provide service that always goes one step further.

In 2025, Ibagari Boutique Hotel was awarded 1 Michelin Key, becoming the first and only hotel in Honduras and Roatán to receive this honor. One fundamental detail: Michelin Keys cannot be requested, purchased, or obtained by invitation. The Guide conducts its evaluations independently and anonymously. They arrived at Ibagari, observed, felt, lived our hospitality… and decided it deserved international recognition.

This Key is a true reflection of the daily work of all our teams and of a commitment that is woven into the very essence of the hotel: caring for every detail, honoring our philosophy, and offering each guest an experience that brings them closer to the art of living. For us, it is not just about a stay; it is about a memory that transforms, a moment to be cherished, and a testament to how beautiful life can be when lived with intention, calm, and authenticity.

For Honduras, this achievement marks a turning point. It places the country, and our beloved Roatán, on the global map of high-end hospitality, proving that world-class experiences are also created here. This Key is not only Ibagari’s: it belongs to the entire island, to the Honduran community, and to everyone who believes in the value of our culture, our service, and our warmth.

We are deeply grateful to every guest who has chosen us, to every person who has walked through our doors, and to every member of our team, across every department and every corner of the hotel. Their effort, dedication, and heart have made Ibagari the exceptional place it is today.

At the same time, this recognition inspires us and commits us even more. It drives us to continue raising our standards, perfecting every detail, and proudly representing Roatán and Honduras with responsibility and passion.

From Ibagari, we move forward with excitement, clarity, and purpose: to continue growing for our guests, for our community, and for our country.
Thank you all.
