The hotel is well designed. Rooms are cute and clean. Staff is amazing! Very relaxing environment right on lake Peten. You are definitely out there. So plan on having most of your meals at the resort. They did arrange for us to go to Tikal and Flores. Our guide to Tikal was amazing. I highly recommend this spot! Would absolutely go back.

La Lancha Hotel is truly a gem. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcomed—warm, attentive, and always one step ahead without ever being intrusive. The attention to detail throughout the property is exceptional, with thoughtful touches everywhere that make the stay feel special and personal. What really stands out is their commitment to being truly eco-friendly, not just in words but in practice, while still offering comfort and quality at every level. Every interaction with the team reflected pride in their work and a genuine desire to ensure guests are comfortable and happy. Combined with the stunning natural setting and peaceful atmosphere, La Lancha delivers an experience that feels authentic, responsible, and memorable. We left already looking forward to returning.

Beautiful hotel on the shore of a beautiful lake. Facilities are excellent, comfortable, even too perfect. Staff is super friendly and will help all your needs. My daughters (8 and 10) ranked it in their top 3 hotels they have visited because they had so much fun, especially in the lake and pool. Very recommended.
