I travel for business and pleasure a great deal and have never been motivated to write a review for a hotel, until now. The hotel sits by Lake Atitlan with beautiful views of the lake and surrounding mountains from literally every room. The hotel itself has a rustic Mayan feel. For example, most rooms have stone floors and stone walls and furnishings with a Mayan flavor. On some walls there are Mayan murals. The food was excellent and staff always very helpful. Given our outdoor interests, we appreciated the canoes and kayaks at our disposal. Because Lake Atitlan was higher than it had been for 50 years, we could not use the volley ball courts. But we did enjoy reading in the hammocks, looking at the views, and just relaxing. Given our interests, we also appreciated the environmental aspects of the hotel. For example, the water was solar heated (and always as hot as desired), food grown on the premises is organic, and the hotel works closely with the adjacent village.
We drank the filtered water and had no problems.
