A lovely hostel with lovely staff. The food served was fantastic and not too expensive. The location is very convenient to get to, right beside the boat dock. On-site activities were cool. The grounds were nice, with lots of space to lounge outside. The outdoor area was a great place to read and to watch storms across the lake. Easy to walk up or take a tuk tuk into Santa Cruz la Laguna town.

This may be the best place I have stayed. The views were incredible. The location was easy to access, but very private and peaceful. The on site staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant was good and the staff there were very friendly. Having access to a free paddleboard for the morning was great. Great place to swim right off the dock. The hot tub was a nice place to hang out in at sunset. The bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean and there was (decently) hot water. The concierge was helpful and helped me arrange transportation back to Antigua. Cannot recommend enough!!

The hotel is nicely decorated with plants and has a nice “vibe”. The breakfast was very very good and the staff very helpful and polite. The hotel is located very close to the main streets and there are a lot of restaurants around to choose from. Even though you could hear some noise coming from the main streets we had no trouble sleeping. However, the pillows and the mattress could use a refresh as they where not very comfortable to be honest. Also weather was very hot and humid when we where there and it will be a great addition to have AC in at least some rooms for the customers which want it.
Offering a restaurant and a private beach area in Atitlán Lake, Hotel La Casa del Mundo is located in El Jaibalito. Free WiFi access is available in all areas.
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!!!
For those looking for a quiet escape, this place is amazing! Yes, it's a bit further from towns with restaurants, but there's a fully equipped kitchen to use for the most adorable pets looking for belly rubs; it's lovely and quaint. You can hire kayaks and paddle boards or take a morning plunge in the lake if you feel like it. The owners are always around in case you have any questions or issues. Overall, I had an amazing experience and didn't want to leave!
This place is incredible.
We stayed in the treehouse suite which has everything you could need for a short stay.
The view from the hotel is beautiful. The architecture is amazing. There is a path at the side so you can take a little walk along the lake to the neighbouring town and pass all the other beautiful hotels and gardens. Staff were great.
Only had soup and dessert at the restaurant but was also still very good. Highly recommend!
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.
Lee and his wife were so welcoming and caring! It was really nice that each house comes with their own little kitchen. The views were incredible, I loved starting my day drinking a cup of coffee with the lake views as well as ending my days like that! The location was great because the property has access to the town and it’s only a few minutes walk with a few restaurants options.
The hotel is absolutely beautiful and has an amazing view of the lake. There is a walking trail just below the property that will take you directly to kayak/paddle board rentals, souvenir shops and continues on to be a hiking trail. The restaurant serves a great breakfast, lunch, and dinner and have a nice happy hour everyday from 3-5 with drink selection.
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!
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 location was good, right by the dock! The village was a bit up the hill but not too far away :) The hotel is very cute, full of plants and with an amazing view! At night there is a campfire sometimes :) Room was clean and comfortable, staff is very nice! The food is good, not great.
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.
Food is good, but a bit pricey. Ethical hostel and Greta vibe. WiFi is good. Great location, but street can be noisy during the day. Beautiful views and lots of things to do. I’d like to come back and work here one day!
Owner is wonderful. So nice and kind. Pretty views of the lake. Large room and very clean. Great shower. Yummy breakfast. Hotel is up a large, sleep hill. Take a 10 Q tuk tuk to get there.
