Salcajá hotels from RM130

"Clean place, great host, close to the city"

"La propiedad muy bien fuera de los cuartos. En el cuarto, especialmente el baño, hace mucha falta tener más ventilación. "

"Check in policy is unclear. The cash policy is listed in FAQ but not noted in the auto message after booking or clearly displayed. It is also misleading when you’re required to leave a credit card for booking. Upon arrival I was told I had to make multiple transactions and my credit card company flagged it as fraud. I had use my limited international cellular service to contact customer service to resolve the issue. Then my room was infested with ants! They were in my bed and suitcase. I had to have my clothes washed. It took 3 days to speak to a manager who didn’t even cover my laundry service. He said this was an expected issue and he gave me Q100 restaurant credit. I expect some spiders but not ants all over the floor, getting into my suitcase and in MY BED."

"Only good thing was our room was clean and the location good. Breakfast was edible but even rating it good would be a giant stretch. No screens on our window which they said they would provide and never did. Lots of bugs. And then to top it off overcharged us on our rooms. There are other options I would choose next time."

"Staying at El Picnic was truly unique & an unforgettable experience. Located in one of the quietest areas of Lake Atitlan (Tzununa), it is where you go to truly unwind. I stayed 2 nights. The Owners Gabi & Jochen are absolutely the most wonderful hosts you’ll meet. Warm, genuine, honest individuals who have built this 4 room accommodation out of their Love & Passion (architect & civil engineer). They live on property and are there to serve guests 24/7 and make sure you have the optimal experience. Food: A hearty delicious breakfast is included. Dinner is optional (additional charge), which I highly recommend. Not many restaurants will be open in the area and most guests staying on property opt for Dinner, so its a cozy vibe while meeting other travelers. They have a full bar and make great cocktails - try an “Old fashioned Rum” Rooms: Considered Glamping, but in a luxurious TreeHouse setting. Comfortable bed with a view of the stars at night. It’s all partially opened but there is enough blanket at night & fresh air w/view of the stars. Location: Tzununa is a very quiet, local area, not affected by mass tourism. There are about a dozen other boutique hotels (mainly Yoga related stays). This is good for those wanting to partake in the Yoga & Spiritual scene. Activities: Yoga, Rent a Kayak in the morning, Breakfast, go for a Hike, Massage, Swim, visit neighboring Laketowns via Watertaxi (10 minutes between each).. come back for Dinner & enjoy a nice quiet rest."

"Aside from the room surpassing our expectations, the staff were the best. The receptionist helped us with transportation and the server at the restaurant was super attentive and the food was amazing. Last but not least the bartender makes the best cocktails. The hotel overall was the best out of all the ones we stayed at. They gave us vouchers for complimentary drinks. The area was in the middle of everything and the inside of it was beautiful. Highly recommend."

"We had a great time! But just keep in mind there are many stairs to climb "

"Todo fue excelente, pero la amabilidad del personal hizo que fuese aún mejor. Regresaremos"

"Very nice hotel is in a convenient location in San Marcos close enough to the main road and the public dock. Solid restaurant and good customer service. Meals were good if not great. Scenic view of the lake. They did a nice job putting together transportation and activities for our visit. Just be aware that because it is in town you may hear some sounds like music and dogs close to bedtime but never after 10pm. I would stay again. "
