The Jade Seahorse on Utila, Honduras

This is the courtyard of the funky Jade Seahorse. They have a restaurant, a popular bar called Tree Tanic, and several cabins you can rent.

The entire place is art. I hear it took about ten years to finish. There is not a corner or crevice that isn't covered with glass or shells or sculpture.

Our cabin was equally colorful. It was called the Mono Lisa. No that isn't spelled wrong. Mono means monkey in Spanish and our cabin had a Mona Lisa meets monkeys theme.

The cabins weren't posh, although they were more expensive than most placed on the island. Frankly, the beds were a little uncomfortable. But how often do you get to stay inside a work of art?
