Do yourself a favor and don't waist your money here. They waisted mine.

The property was absolutely amazing. Love every little corner. The views, the pool, the staff was wonderful. The only thing that I would have to say I need was a better WiFi. My room had no WiFi and I had to step out to actually use WiFi. But other than that I was overwhelmed with the beauty of the place.

The Kaalpul Atitlan is an extraordinary property on the shores of an incredibly beautiful lake. The Staff here are extremely friendly and helpful, including the VERY nice property managers Mayra and Hugo. Despite not being native to the area they are both very knowledgeable about things to do in the area, as well as being passionate about ensuring fair and equitable treatment of their employees. I'm accustomed to altitude so it wasn't an issue - but you MUST be aware that the rooms are all built onto the side of a cliff that plunges into the lake. This means that you must walk UP the stairs that are hewn into the cliffside to reach your room. There are no elevators. If you have mobility issues you better contact the property before you book to discuss this. Otherwise, in my opinion, the climb to your room and the beauty of the surroundings more than make up for the fact that you have to get some exercise going to your room. A big treat for me, as a coffee lover, is the fact that at the top of the mountain is a coffee producing cooperative! I had the pleasure of hiking up the mountain with one of the staff on a coffee run and was thrilled to be able to walk through the coffee trees that produced the coffee that I drank every morning. I was able to buy some beans to bring home with me which I can't wait to drink. I was also fortunate that Hugo gifted me some green beans that were produced on some trees owned by Kaalpul - I'm really excited to roast these!

My first three nights at this resort was charming with lake side hammocks and beautiful gardens! Then the atmosphere changed due to local tourism and the loud parties at night. The hotel began playing horrible music day and night and coming from NYC it's the last thing I want to heard!! I

The place is nice, the hotel has a beautiful lake view, but the installation is to old.
