Casa Palopó

Built on a hillside overlooking Lake Atitlan and surrounded by breathtaking volcanoes, Casa Palopó is an intimate boutique hotel.

Overlooking Lake Atitlan, described by author Aldous Huxley as the 'most beautiful lake in the world', this hotel occupies a truly privileged location. Its terraced grounds overlook the lake - a mile-high wonder of startlingly blue, windswept waters, set against a backdrop of three 10,000-foot volcanoes.

Guatemalan-Mayan heritage is displayed proudly throughout, exemplified by the jewel-coloured walls, vibrant artworks, painted furniture and wonderful candelabras. With just nine rooms and a private villa, the hotel has an exclusive, intimate feel. All the rooms have private, outdoor spaces and, inside, are decorated in vibrant colours, whilst the furniture is mostly traditional carved or painted wood.

The hotel's private villa, meanwhile, stands at the crest of the terraced grounds, and is all muted colours, stylish, plantation-style furniture and polished floors. It is a contemporary, stylish and spacious accommodation with the added luxury of Philippe Starck designed bathroom fixtures and a private pool.
