Alfresco dining with panoramic lake views
Perched above the tranquil shores of Lake Atitlan, Villa Santa Catarina offers a serene escape just 4km from Panajachel.
Nestled in the quaint village of Santa Catarina Polopó, this colonial-style gem exudes charm and tranquillity.
At the heart of the hotel lies a beautiful, landscaped garden, home to a medium-sized swimming pool bordered by inviting loungers and verdant lawns. Overlooking this oasis is an open-air terrace restaurant and bar, perfect for alfresco dining with panoramic lake views.
Inspired by the vibrant culture of the nearby village renowned for its traditional costumes, Villa Santa Catarina's 38 rooms are adorned with bursts of colour and exquisite textiles. Set across two floors, each stylish room features a terrace or balcony, offering magnificent vistas of the pool, Lake Atitlan, or the surrounding mountains.
While the hotel offers a wonderful restaurant and bar, guests can also explore dining options in nearby Panajachel, a mere ten-minute drive away. For adventure seekers, a range of activities awaits, from boating and fishing to windsurfing and waterskiing. Guided tours to indigenous lakeside villages and nearby hot springs are also readily arranged, promising unforgettable experiences amidst Guatemala's stunning highland landscapes.
