Km 175, 07000 San Juan La Laguna, Guatemala –

Lock in a great price for Eco Hotel Uxlabil Atitlan – rated 8.5 by recent guests!

to get started.

Staff very nice and welcoming. Good breakfast included, restaurant also open for limited lunch and dinner. Right on the lake, beautiful end relaxing. Short walk to San Juan. Comfortable bed, hot shower.

Katie, United States of America

Loved the location in the middle of coffee and corn fields right on lake Atitlan, delicious breakfast, kayaking on the lake, walking through the quiet streets of San Juan... so much to love about this beautiful hotel.

Lisa, Australia

I really loved how they utilize farm to table for all meals. The staff was so excelente and did an amazing job with my meals.

Gladys, United States of America

Jorge, United States of America

Jocelyn, United States of America

Great location! Walking distance to San Juan and San Pedro

Maureen, Canada

Complaints from previous reviewers should not discourage you from staying here. I stayed in a large and comfortable room overlooking the lake. I cannot endorse enough the kindness of the staff. They were so friendly and helpful. Internet reception is only available in the dining area but that truly helps one disconnect and enjoy life away from the big city. I liked the fact that the hotel is not in town. I was able go visit and shop in the other towns, go for dinner and drinks in San Pedro and come back to a very relaxing and quiet rest. The hotel's access involves going up rock steps, but it is not a long walk and even my mother who uses a cane, managed quite well. All in all, if you want a beautiful view, a quiet environment that includes birds singing to you in the morning, and an attentive staff, this is the place to stay in Lake Atitlan.

Beatriz, Colombia

The view on the lake was awesome the owner very nice and interesting anthropologist explaining us the maya culture. There was a maya ceremony the night I arrived very interesting

Azemi, Canada

Unique! Loved the quite setting, right on the water, staff is the best.

The room could use some small reparation and a new layer of paint (though it is clean and the beds are good), other than everything was perfect.
The location is perfect, with very nice views of the lake. The staff is very helpful and does anything to make you feel at home. The food at the restaurant is really nice and so are the people working there.

The only downside of having such a peaceful and private hotel is that you need to walk less that 10 minutes to town and part of it is in the dark. Nevertheless, the town was completely safe.
Beautiful views in front of the lake. Delicious breakfast and dinner. Above all, the attentive, smiley and helpful people that work in the hotel.

We loved the staff for their unbeatable kindness. It sets a new benchmark for the entire continent. Most of the furniture is recycled and it is a perfect way to reduce the footprint on the planet. Obviously it is not a high end hotel, however, in our opinion it is highly recommended for a stop at lake Atitlan.

“Stunning location, relaxed atmosphere and very friendly people! ”

*Wifi - the WiFi connection/ strength was my main issue. The only place to get WiFi is in the restaurant and was very slow when connected which meant some things like downloading films on Netflix(!) were not possible. Maybe, in some ways this is a good thing as it brought people together and got us off our phones! *Payment - As I was not asked to pay when I arrived I had assumed this had come off my card. It therefore came as a surprise that at 5am, 3 days after checking in, standing at the dock with my things, with 5 minutes before my water taxi was about to arrive, that a member of staff asked me to pay! It was a bit of a panic as my other money stash was in my big rucksack! I wouldn’t have minded as much but I had been in the restaurant area for about 10 minutes while he made me a sandwich and he had not said anything!
In general I loved this place and didn’t want to leave and here is why!: * Location - as soon as I arrived I was actually amazed by the view from my room and overall setting of the hotel. It is beautiful and so quiet and relaxing. Yes, some people have complained that the hotel is a bit rough around the edges, which is true but I was rarely looking inside with that view outside! The village of San Juan was charming and quiet. Not much in terms of bars/cafes but such an authentic ‘working village’ where everyone was friendly. * People - the staff were incredibly friendly and kind and always willing to help with everything. I was travelling alone so I was so touched that they knew my name and greeted me every time they saw me. The ladies in the kitchen were particularly lovely and gave me a hug and kiss when I said I was leaving! These things make a big difference. I also loved hearing the staff laughing and joking as it shows they enjoy working there! * Food - Although simple and limited, I was impressed with the included breakfast and the meal options for lunch and dinner. There were other ‘hotels’ i stayed at that only offered breakfast so it’s nice to have the option not to leave the hotel! The service was very good too. Relaxed but homely and friendly. What was also a lovely touch was that when people left early (before breakfast) due to transfers or excursions, they have a breakfast sandwich ready for you to take! *Facilities - I enjoyed using the free kayak and that the hotel has its own dock. Useful for arriving and departing. Yes, the sauna and hot tub were not working but there so many other things to enjoy! I also like the seating area - lovely to sit and look out at the view.

“Beautiful location, delicious home-cooking, and an amazing friendly kind, and humble staff!”

Where to begin….Let me start with the amazing staff. Every request and question was “no problema.” Being greeted with Rose Jamaica tea (delicious!) You know you’re in for great treat when your bags hit the ground and a nice refreshing drink is handed to you. Juan and Lucas were so helpful! We booked a 'cultural tour' and Juan of San Juan gave a wonderful fulfilling tour of his town. He really is a part of his town and it shows. We felt good seeing how the clothing, the chocolate, the artistry is done and who does it. Made it easy to spend consciously. Loved the experience. The kitchen staff was so friendly and accommodating. The food was like being in your Guatemalan aunt's kitchen. It was home cooking! Will miss that! What can you say about the view from the rooms. Breathtaking and just beautiful. Don't miss out on the Temescal- Mayan Sauna. If you love saunas, try it! This hotel is just far enough away from the hustle and bustle of San Pedro and an easy stroll to the center of San Juan. Will definitely visit this little gem again.

Not too easy to find. It’s best to ask at the boat to stop at the guesthouse for you.
Very nice location and amazing view! It was perfect to relax there in the nice garden! Kayaks are for free and you can easily get with it to San Juan. Staff is extremely helpful and gives you a lot of advices for your time at lake Atitlan. Rooms are simple but you have all what you need. We had a lot of fun.
