Pros:

Die Anlage und das Shala sind sehr schön, tolle Aussicht

Cons:

Das Essen war viel zu teuer und und er Preis wurde nicht richtig kommuniziert. Die Mitarbeiter waren nicht besonders freundlich, vor allem eine die immer ein Miesepeter Gesicht zieht und uns um 10 vor 9 mega unfreundlich ins Zimmer geschickt hat, wir seien zu laut. ich liebe Ruhe und verstehe, dass Leute früh ins Bett gehen aber die Art und Weise wie sie das kommuniziert hat geht gar nicht.. Haben auch oft Wasserprobleme..

Miserable, unfriendly staff, no sauna as advertised
Pros:

The nature around Lake Atitlan is lovely.

Cons:

Staff didn't speak Spanish and also wanted to charge everything in USD. Sauna wasn't available as apparently there were no staff available to light it, despite enquiring 2 days prior to arrival. Was given ambiguous answers around the sauna, no then yes (for an extra charge) then no again, in the end all of the staff left the premises shortly after our check-in and couldn't assist with anything. We were given the wrong room key and by the time we realised, all staff had left, so we had to climb in through the window and leave our room unlocked for the remainder of our stay. Also couldn't connect to the Wifi as we weren't given the details when checking in, which is the same reason we missed breakfast.

The good does not outweigh the bad
Pros:

Great location in Tzununa. I liked it better than San Marcos which is a bit saturated and touristy. The beds were also very comfy. The yoga was fantastic.

Cons:

One of the main staff members radiated negative energy that was felt by everyone at the property. I would have extended my stay if it weren’t for this person who just seemed irritated that any of us were there. The sauna was never working, the water was off for 4 out of 6 days with no solutions or even recognition of the inconvenience and were instead met by a “sucks to suck” attitude. Breakfast is included but if you aren’t first in like at the limited buffet then you just have to get the scraps of what is left. Rarely are any staff members on the property outside of meal times so when the water was off, poop just piled up in the toilets until the next day. When the water was on, the showers were a trickle and not warm.

Stunning place with a lot of potential
Pros:

Great, healthy, delicious Food. Stunning place with a lot of very nice social areas, hammocks ect. Great yoga classes in the morning.

Basic but big rooms for personal space. Very quiet area, day and night. So in general a place where you can really enjoy the stunning view from one of the two nice big terraces and recover after Acatenango. I really enjoyed my stay here.

Cons:

Lockers in the dorms are actually no lockers, because the back is open. I realized it after three days... Not really nice, so be aware of your stuff.

The communication was kind of tricky, because you have to write the stuff in what's app and sometimes it can take some time before you get an answer. Laundry cost me 15 USD for a small bag < 1kg...

Une semaine incroyable a saasil ! Je recommande vivement.
Pros:

Tout était parfait ! Du personnel aux chambres, le lieu avec la belle vue, le petit déjeuner inclu était excellent et à volonté. La literie est d’un confort incroyable ! J’ai tout adoré. Il faut juste savoir que c’est un lieu assez reculé dans le sens où de n’est pas un lieu bondé de magasin etc mais vous trouverez quand même des petites épiceries sur votre chemin ! Saasil propose même le déjeuner et le dîner. Parfait si vous souhaitez être au calme. Il y a des cours de yoga tous les matins. Parfait pour se détendre.

LO QUE NECESITABA PARA RELAJARME
Pros:

Sin duda una gran opción para desconectarte del ruido, esta en una ubicación perfecta para mantenerte dentro del hostal y disfrutar de la paz. Lleno de naturaleza, la habitación es cómoda y tienen opción para pago con tarjeta lo que es perfecto para mi que no tenia efectivo. Tienen un sistema disponible de lunch y cena con costo adicional pero que es una buena opción si deseas mantenerte en las instalaciones, el internet es bastante bueno.

Cons:

Todo bien con el lugar, solo toma en cuenta que no hay cajeros en Tzununá y el mas cercano esta en San Marcos que caminando esta a 40min y no siempre sirve. Tambien ellos te pueden ayudar a conseguir un tuktuk.

Pros:

Beautiful and peaceful location, daily yoga class included, excellent buffet style breakfast, comfy beds.

Cons:

It felt like there should have been more places in the gardens to relax, but much was unkempt. Not having anywhere to prepare even the simplest of your own food is a huge miss - outside of the designated meal hours, you can't even access plates or knives to cut some fruit.

Great for a break away from the hustle and bustle but do not book if you don’t like a rustic feel or bugs!
Pros:

Rural location
Daily yoga and great breakfast included
Lots of spare blankets in room as gets cold
Solar powered warm water shower
Good WiFi

Cons:

Dogs barking in village til early hours of morning
Lots of creepy crawlys! Found two scorpions on my things which they do make you aware of - to be expected with the location
Housekeeping accidentally took one of my cloths and they couldn’t find it to return it

Beautiful Eco Lodge
Pros:

The breakfast was delicious 😋, the yoga classes were great, every teacher bringing in their own flavour and the location is very close to San Marcos (quick 15 minutes tuk tuk ride).
