The accommodation looks just like the pictures – the room was clean, and there were some nice shared spaces with options to play ping pong and billiards. However, there were a few downsides. The room didn’t have blackout curtains, so it got very bright as early as 5 AM. The front door was quite thin, and there was constant noise coming from a generator house next to the room. The staff were professional, but we didn’t feel the genuine friendliness we’ve experienced in other places. Breakfast was decent, though it felt a bit soulless and was relatively expensive for what it offered.

On a adoré notre nuit a la villa. Vue magnifique , personnel accueillant et très respectueux. Très propre et complet. C'était vraiment calme durant la journée. Il n'y a pas de restaurant dans le coin mais on les retrouve à 15 minutes en tuktuk pour 5$ . La nourriture de l'hôtel, ce n'est pas la meilleur qu'on ait mangé durant notre voyage mais ça fait l'affaire quand tu ne veux pas te déplacer ou manger à la chambre.

This is a beautiful location and the hotel is picturesque. The pool was the highlight for my two children, especially the thermal pool. While we had a nice stay, I think it is important for other families to know that the rooms are small and the "semi-matrimonial" beds are even smaller. They are not meant for two adults, at least not comfortably. What was most upsetting was that once we saw the size of the beds, we requested a separate roll-away to be brought in and they said it would be a charge of $20/night. This was never disclosed to us, even though when we made the reservations we specified that we were 4 people (2 adults and 2 children). I asked why the posted sign in the lobby stated the charge was $15, but they still insisted on charging $20 per night for the one bed. Management did not seem to hear my suggestion. While we enjoyed our stay and the restaurant staff was wonderful, we were disappointed in the extra charge and lack of response from management.

Santa Catarina Palopo is a bit off the main circle around lake Atitlan and cannot even be accessed by public boats, only more expensive private lanchas. The other option is a tuk-tuk to reach it from Panajachel in around 15-20 minutes. The hotel is very close to the waterfront and the first level rooms offer great lakeviews. This tiny village is home to some of the best weaving in Guatemala and such artisanal work is the main decoration around the hotel giving it a real authentic feel. Staff spoke some minimal English but knowing Spanish is definitely a huge plus here. This would be a great place for guests who don’t want to wonder around much, just enjoy lovely hospitality surrounded by lakeviews and mountains for a few days.

Un lugar muy bonito y rodeado de naturaleza. Está en la calle del embarcadero, que está llena de artesanías y caminando, a unos minutos de éste. El hotel está lleno de detalles. Cuenta con un restaurante con linda decoración y gran vista. Personal muy atento en general. Tiene estacionamiento. Creo que la opinión depende de la habitación que te den. En nuestro caso nos dieron la 72 qué es muuuuy amplia y bonita. Camas muy cómodas, presión del agua excelente y cuenta con todo lo necesario El pueblito es pequeñito, bonito. En auto a solo 12 mins de Panajachel

A lovely setting on the shores of the lake. The hotel is also located in pretty grounds with a big outdoor swimming pool surrounded by trees, cactus and lawns. It’s also a short walk to the main square of the town and to the lake. All the guest rooms overlook the pool and have an outdoor covered balcony with outdoor furniture. The rooms are rustic in design but quite comfortable. There are two single beds & a desk & chair. The bathroom has a large walk in shower. There are minimal amenities. But the room is very clean. There is a Tv but only has a few local channels. There is wifi around the property stronger near reception but not great in the guest rooms Breakfast is a set menu and changes a bit each day. It’s all tasty. Staff do their best & are friendly.
