Beautiful property in an amazing location, with amazing views from the room and common areas. Don’t forget to check the upstairs pool area, which has even better views. The hotel restaurant is excellent. I was a bit disappointed with the steakhouse Kinik, down by the shore, so I recommend you stick with the main restaurant. I also took the private motor boat to the pueblos; although pricy, it was worth the convenience. The concierge gave me good and accurate recommendations I highly recommend this place

For our 1st anniversary we wanted to visit the beautiful Lake Atitlan in Guatemala & this hotel made this adventure feel over the top luxurious. While the hotel & views are hard to beat, the hotel team that worked every day to give us moments of delight throughout our stay, were the true unique component of this stay. From an easel/paint/canvas waiting for us in our room to paint the beautiful views, to the turn down service with a unique gift each time, but more than that was the friendly and helpful nature of all of the staff was incredible. They arranged a private boat driver for us to go to San Juan & San Marcos. It was definitely worth the elevated price to not be on a tight schedule & get to explore as much as we wanted & leave as soon as we wanted to make the most of our day. Skip going to San Marcos but DEFINITELY visit San Juan!! We also walked from Hotel Casa Palopo to the town of Santa Caterina which allowed us to explore the everyday lifestyle of the community. We also recommend going up to the infinity pool at Hotel Casa Palopo for the days you just want to relax & for sunsets! We did the traditional route of ground van transportation lined up by Hotel Casa Palopo, but when we learned about the hotel having two helipads, we found GuataFlights and HIGHLY recommend them for a much faster transportation to Antigua (10 min) or the GUA airport (25 min). Make sure to eat and lakeside restaurant, Kinnik. The BEST! Can't tell - I recommend you stay here. We will be back.

Absolutely love Casa Palopo and so glad we decided to stay here during our trip to Lake Atitlan!! The views are amazing and the service and kindness the staff showed us was outstanding. They staff went above and beyond to make sure our stay was comfortable and enjoyable. We had NO issues with communication or hot water in our rooms. So I'm really surprised by the other reviews left. The restaurant in the hotel was lovely and they were happy to accommodate to my food allergies with no problems!!! We found the location we'll worth the views of the lake and Volcanos. And easy walk to Satana Catarina, a beautiful local village. Easy Tuk tuk transport to get to Panajachel for more restaurants, shopping and transport by boat to other towns across the lake. I highly recommend this boutique hotel!!
