    Beautiful views of the lake, close to Panajachel.

    Beautiful views of the lake, close to Panajachel. Rather quiet and not many options of restaurants and activities. There was a nice café/restaurant up in the village (you can take a tuktuk to go there) with good food and great views.

    A small, quiet town.

    A small, quiet town. For visitors there are a couple of hostels, numerous holiday homes and some options for dining out but visitors typically need to give notice ahead of time. Our family enjoyed a few meals at The Iguana Perdida and Holy Tortilla - both were great options and enjoyed by our family (toddler and teens included). We found the views from this town the most stunning and resting here was easy as it is quiet at night. If you prefer to be somewhere busy and don’t want to take a boat to get there, this is probably not the best fit for you. If you do book a casa in Santa Cruz, be sure to bring groceries from Pana as there are just small tiendas and minimal fresh foods for purchase.

    Santa Cruz is the pueblo way up the mountain.

    Santa Cruz is the pueblo way up the mountain. Down by the lake are some hotels, including 'Noah's Arc' where we stayed. The location is spectacular, with views across the lake to the volcanos. There are flowers everywhere. The lake is clear and clean for swimming. This is a perfect place to relax, watch clouds form over the volcanos and just re-tool.

    Great people -- I had an awesome time visiting the town a couple different nights while staying down near the docks -- get a tuk-tuk up and walk back down --- no problems at all. Everyone treated me very kindly. I want to return as soon as I have the opportunity. Santa Cruz La Laguna is beautiful, safe, and the people are friendly.

    Very small town with virtually nothing going on.

    Very small town with virtually nothing going on. It is very steep terrain so use a tuk-tuk to get up into town. Cecap has a great restaurant and gift shop but if you want to eat dinner out you must make a reservation by 3 or 5 PM depending on location ( there were like 3). If you are cooking your own food bring groceries with you from Pana or elsewhere, as the town is a food desert. The locals are about the nicest, warmest people you’d ever hope to meet. This is a wonderful tranquil base to explore all Lake Atitlan has to offer.

    Everything was excellent, the view is beautiful and the location of the room meant you could sit comfortably to look out at it at every opportunity, resting in the room, or sitting for breakfast. Stunning!!! The room was spacious, with separate kitchenette, well equipped for preparing a simple meal. Armand and his team at the hotel, were so welcoming, everyone of them made us feel at home. We also enjoyed the meals, which were prepared and presented with great care, delicious!!!

    This is a fine luxury hotel. Staff is very attentive since the very begging. The house is magical. It has several different areas where you can relax or havings meals. Our experience was truly amazing. Food is good, but no amazing but is always well presented. You cant miss the JC french toast, that is the best french toaste ive ever had. Wine list is small but good. Juan Carlos, Ariel y Maria were wonderful

    Beautiful view and location in a nice area on Lake Atitlan. Clemens was a great host and assisted in arranging private lanchas for arrival and departure. The kitchen facilities are nice to have and it is good to follow the suggestion to buy groceries in Panajachel before coming to the house. It is a very private location. Especially enjoyed the hammock and watching sunrises and sunsets from the porch.

    The property is in a convenient location for the docks, restaurants, and trails to nearby attractions. It is a beautiful property I loved all of the lounge spaces, and the fire pit. I liked that we had our own guesthouse, rather than being attached to other visitors. I also liked that we had a key for the side gate so that we could come and go without disturbing the staff in the evening.

    La Iguana Perdida is a wonderful spot. The view on the lake is perfection, and dinners + activities organized at this hotel/hostel are a wonderful place to meet other travellers. The price is unbeatable for what you get! I was worried upfront (was not sure what to expect at this price), but ended up extending my stay with 1 night. 1 of the highlights!

    The most amazing hotel. From the staff, to the grounds, to the food and the service, this hotel was the most wonderful place. My fiancée asked me to marry him there and there genuinely would not have been a more special surrounding. Astrid was also amazing as were all the staff we interacted with. Thank you for an amazing stay!

    Perfect location! We had relaxing days right in the nature and really enjoyed it. You have the opportunity to rent kayaks and SUPs right in front of the property. There is also an awesome restaurant at hotel island verde which is only 2 minute away! We also loved to travel by the boats and visit the different towns.

    The hotel property was very well kept and the view from the room was stunning. They had a cute garden in which we sat practically all the time and we could swim in front of the hotel as well. The communal bathroom and showers were also very clean and we loved the water pressure. The restaurant also had good food.

    What a lovely little lakeside hotel! Perfect rooms/cabins and most of them facing the lake with a small patio and chairs. The restaurant was ideal for breakfast and dinner. So much nicer than staying in the larger, louder towns around Atitaln.

    The location is really the best part about this hotel, right next to the boats, you get a perfect view from the lake and the volcanoes from your room. Perfect place to relax and recover for a couple days after climbing Acatenango.

    Easy to access via boat taxi as the hotel is right on the water. The closest town is up the hill, best via a moto-taxi as it's quite steep. Food is great.
