Honeymooners, couples or groups of friends – anyone ready to be wowed by one of Guatemala’s most stunning views.
The charming boutique hotel of Casa Palopo is perched on the hillside overlooking three stunning volcanoes on Lake Atitlan. Only 3 hrs drive from Antigua and within easy reach of Chichicastenango market, its location is quite something.
There are just seven rooms at Casa Palopo which are all different shapes and sizes but each oozing character in its own individual way. Either opt for one of the more classic Central American styled rooms nearer the lake or stay further up the terraced property in the more contemporary rooms, which make up part of the two-bedroom Villa Palopó.
All meals can be enjoyed on the superb wrap around restaurant terrace, which boasts some of the most spectacular vistas. The food at 6.8 Palopó is a real highlight with an extravagant choice of European, Guatemalan and Mexican influenced dishes. Casa Palopo has a 50ft infinity swimming pool and its own private beach, 150 steps down! The boat trips and lake excursions leave from close by.
If lapping up the unbelievable view at Casa Palopo isn’t enough to keep you busy then there are a number of other activities on offer – explore one of the 12 Mayan villages surrounding the lake, go kayaking, waterskiing or cross the lake to Santiago Atitlan – known for its vibrant market and numerous textiles.
