The pictures pale in comparison to beauty of this spacious property. The morning and Evening view are breathtaking. Security guy " Rogelio" is super friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend this spot if you have a big family and like to have a private getaway

6BR Villa in San Antonio Palopó

This house has one of the most beautiful views of Lake Atitlan and volcanoes, this is our second time staying at this house because our family group is big and this house is able to accommodate us comfortably. Definitely going back for a third time. One thing I will recommend to new visitors, is to not use the Waze that is link to the house instructions because it will not take you to the right spot, you will have to get instructions and it will take another hour to get to the house, it’s better to just put San Antonio Palopo and then fallow the instructions.

Pros: The photos don't do it justice. It's stunning everywhere you look. Host communication was excellent. We were a party of 14 and there were 5 unused twin beds. The place is massive - we never felt crowded. There is a new dining table (not pictured) that comfortably sat all of us. Cristina prepared most of our meals - she did a great job. Pizza delivered from Rene's was good. Rogelio responded when needed. The boat drivers Ghada recommended were on time. The pool table was a ton of fun. San Antonio Palopo is an easy walk from the house and fun to visit (weavers and large ceramic studio & store). Gorgeous landscaping. Wifi worked fine. Cons: The house is 5 star but the amenities are 3 star. 1 pillow/ 1 towel per person, kitchen pans in bad shape, no hair dryers, no condiments or soaps or little things you might forget. It's a bare bones operation. LOTS of stairs to the front door, same w/ down to the lake and inside the house. House needs some TLC.

Instrcutions of address not very detailed. The house needs maintenance, floor was dirty, big water leakage in the kitchen that leaves the floor soaked in water while washing dishes, 2 showers drains clogged with hair. Basic cleaning products and shampoo not available, not enough tiolet paper, paper towels nor napkins. Bed lining very old and very old pillows. Host was not helpful when needed her help to solve the kitchens leakageproblem. On the other hand, the house has an expecacular view, plenty of space and very nice gardens.

Loved the house and view!! Hard to get there driving. The guard was a little rude only because in order to go in and out of the house you have to notify him. So unfortunately a few of us got there late and his response was he doesn’t work 24 hours so it was difficult going in and out at his convenience. Other than that the house is beautiful. You can only get WiFi on the bottom floor which sucks because the house is so huge. Loved the scenery

10/10 recommend!!!!! First off, the sights were absolutely beautiful. I loved waking up there every morning throughout my stay. I went with my family, and we felt right at home from the moment we arrived. The home and décor were stunning and so unique, it honestly felt like sleeping in a museum. The groundskeeper was incredibly sweet and attentive, always making sure we had everything we needed. Just a heads up, there are quite a few stairs and an inclined walk from the dock up to the villa, but the views are absolutely worth it. The host was very nice, responsive, and provided detailed information and helpful contacts to make our stay even better. Overall, my family and I truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely love to stay again.
