Best Hotel in San Pedro
Pros:

I had a wonderful experience staying here and would absolutely stay again. The location was great, and the staff were incredibly warm, welcoming, and attentive. It really felt like everyone went out of their way to help and make our stay enjoyable. Communication was also excellent throughout our stay.

The hotel itself was very quiet, which I appreciated. Because of that, though, even a small amount of conversation or having friends outside your room at night seemed to carry quite a bit and could attract attention. Relaxed and family-oriented and didn't take away from an otherwise great experience.

The included breakfast was very nice, the beds were very comfortable, and the rooms were clean and well maintained. The pool was also a great place to relax.

My only slight disappointment was that there isn't an easily swimmable beach directly in front of the hotel. However, it's only a few-minute walk to a public beach that you can use, and there is also a dock with boats just off the hotel where you can swim. So there are still several good options for getting in the water.

Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would definitely come back. I would highly recommend this hotel to others visiting Lake Atitlan and staying in San Pedro.

Cons:

None

Coffee was really good.

Cons:

Rooms are too hot, small desk vent disn’t do anything. Wifi password didn’t work. Room was right next to the pool, made it impossible to sleep.

Pros:

Excelente experiencia. El hotel es hermoso y da justo para el lago. Quiero destacar especialmente a Josefa de recepción, quien fue muy amable y siempre estuvo dispuesta a ayudar. Me dio recomendaciones, resolvió mis dudas y me ayudó mucho con todo lo que necesitaba como viajera. Se nota su buena disposición y atención al huésped. ¡Gracias, Josefa!

Zware teleurstelling gezien de prijs!
Cons:

Slordige badkamers, onafgewerkt in de badkamer, veel verkalking in badkamer. Elektriciteit viel meerdere malen uit. Zeer isrealistisch gezind.

Overall a good stay, but needs some improvements
Pros:

We stayed here after hiking Acatenango and it was a great spot for some much needed relaxation. The pool was the main reason we booked this hotel, as well as the big rooms with a king bed, which was very comfortable. The buffet breakfast had a lot of variety and we were glad to have that included in our stay. The hotel was generally pretty quiet for the most part during our stay, even during the weekend. However, we stayed during the rainy season when San Pedro is not as busy.

Cons:

The property was definitely showing some wear, including in the rooms. It feels like this place is cosplaying as an all-inclusive resort. When we arrived we had an issue with the lights in our room flickering constantly. Thankfully, the staff at the front desk acted immediately to fix it.

The rooms can also be very loud as there are screened windows that face the pool so if other guests are up late it can be very loud. There are no official quiet hours that are enforced.

The property is awkward to walk around in certain spots. They clearly value what looks good in photos over what is practical. The stepping stone tiles on the property are not level and can be tripping hazards. There are many beautiful plants that you will have to brush out of your face as you navigate the property.

The breakfast buffet is good, but it is tight quarters so best to get there early. They need to change the lids for their sauces on the buffet, because they require two hands to use but there is nowhere to put down your plate as you serve yourself.

Verschrikkelijk duur voor de rust en comfort die je maar krijgt
Pros:

Niets.

Cons:

Bij het inchecken geven ze je een paar oordoppen en al snel werd duidelijk waarom. Er was lawaai vanaf 5 u smorgens tot 23 u savonds. We namen een durere kamer ( met zicht op zwembad ) we zater er 30 cm van met als gevolg dat we alles hoorden. Een fel led licht die constant door onze ramen scheen. Ik ben absoluut niet tervreden van dit ‘resort’.

Very dissapointing, we were looking to enjoy the beautiful pool and ammeneties from the hotel in the pictures but that w
Pros:

Location

Cons:

The property needs lots of up keeping, pool had mold around the walls, needs a complete replaster, never saw anyone applying chemicals to it, pretty alarming specially the water was not circulating. The toilet tank was leaking, bathtub had mold, dusty furniture and not to mentioned they only have a ONE little portable fan for the whole room.
Restaurant staff needs major hospitality training, first thing they mentioned, breakfast includes (1 egg, 1,drink only ) they even have a note on the wall of the restaurant saying so and if you ask for anything they made sure to tell you it’s extra. Tables were dirty attracting alot of flies and no prevention from their part. Overall this is NOT a 4 star hotel whatsoever. It’s truly ashamed because the property has alot of potential.
