It looks like Roatan uses the Honduran Lempira as currency and the exchange rate is ~19 Lempira / 1 USD. Can anyone that has been there recently answer a few questions? From what I've read some businesses may accept U.S. dollars but may charge you and would prefer Lempiras. Any thoughts on denominations that are handy to have for taxis/tipping/shopping? Are banks easy to find for converting currency? Do the DMs prefer Lempiras over dollars for tips? I'll be at Anthony's Key Resort if that plays into any answers. I just want to be prepared and make things go as smoothly as possible when we get there.
