My husband and I just returned from our wedding in Guatemala at the Casa del Mundo. I began planning my wedding at CdM about 4 months before and with Ivan's help I very easily put together a beautiful wedding plan. Destination weddings are nice because you can't plan for everything, but I found working with CdM staff particularly convenient, responsive,... More

This hotel has lots of character in a very serene setting. The vistas of lake Atitlan are breathtaking and the perfect place to spend time relaxing. The food was prepared by a gourmet chef and some of the best meals that I've had in Guatemala. Ivan and his staff are second to none in the service they provide. Thanks Ivan,... More

This is the most beautiful and relaxing place to stay. Every room has incredible full views of the lake and volcano. The breakfast is absolutely delicious. Dinner was acceptable but good for the price. (The dinner is family style you all sit at one long table. I promise, even if you think you want your privacy, you will end up... More

Our son and now daughter-in-law exchanged marital vows at this beautiful hotel. Our 3 meals were prepared by the most amazing female chef. Dinner was always served family style with the most beautiful table set with candles and flowers. The food was of the finest quality. We highly recommend this place. We arrived into Guatemala City and purposely took the... More

We had room 11 (grab it) if you are fit enough for the walk up! The room was very spacious,tastefully decorated with ensuite facilites.

The setting, the rooms and the grounds are immaculate and this hotel would be a bargain at half the price. Staff are extremely helpful and accommodating. I'd stay there again and definitely recommend it. Two areas that could be improved upon: 1. Food - the breakfasts are very good, the lunches and dinners are a bit plain and unimaginative. I... More

Nicest place we stayed in Guatemala, not the most fun, but best views and amenities. As other reviewers have mentioned, it is about a 25 minute boat ride to the resort depending on the wind and chop. Family style dinners were very good but it felt like we were at an American country club. After spending 5 days travelling on... More
