Hotel Casa Palopó - Relais & Chateaux  

Perched above Lake Atitlán in Santa Catarina Palopó, this luxury mountain hotel stares straight at three volcanoes. It’s a short drive from Pintando Santa Catarina Palopó and minutes from the Church of Saint Francis, with Panajachel and local markets roughly 5–6 km away.

Rooms have private balconies and minibars, plus rainfall showers and complimentary toiletries. The main building mixes contemporary and indigenous artwork and has a cozy living room with a fireplace. A private villa option sits above the hotel with its own pool, jacuzzi, living room and kitchen for a more secluded stay.

Relax at the full-service spa offering massages and facials, or take a dip in the outdoor pool and keep up routines in the fitness center. There’s a library, gift shop, daily complimentary reception, a bar/lounge and concierge services. Airport shuttles are available for a surcharge and free self-parking is onsite.

Complimentary wireless internet is available throughout the property. The concierge and tour desk can help arrange transfers, excursions and group logistics.

Dine at 6.8 Palopó on a glassed terrace and wide veranda that frame spectacular sunsets over the lake. The restaurant serves gourmet meals and there’s a bar/lounge on site. A complimentary continental breakfast is served daily and limited room service is available.
