Lake Atitlán: The Viral Hotel Casa del Mundo and Visiting the Lake's Towns | Guatemala Travel Vlog

Lake Atitlán is a must-visit destination in Guatemala! Over this glistening lake towers three active volcanoes - San Pedro, Tolimán, and Atitlán - a breathtaking backdrop to this paradise. Aldous Huxley wrote, “Lake Como, it seems to me, touches on the limit of permissibly picturesque, but Atitlán is Como with additional embellishments of several immense volcanoes. It really is too much of a good thing.”‪ We couldn't agree more! 🇬🇹 Guatemala | Lake Atitlán 🎥 Filmed on 30 April - 3 May 2023 ❤️ Subscribe to our channel and check out our other videos from Central America, Europe, and Australian van life! La Casa del Mundo is undoubtedly the best place to stay around Lago Atitlán. It was truly one of the most magical hotels we have ever stayed at. The definition of peace and tranquility. La Casa del Mundo was built in 1988 using local materials and with sustainability in mind. Built into the cliffs surrounding Atitlán, this place was truly unique. ​⁠​⁠‪@LaCasaDelMundo‬ The lakefront luxury of diving straight into the water is not something that many other hotels have around Lake Atitlán. It was amazing to swim and paddle board straight from the hotel's terraces. There are also so many places to relax and enjoy a hot cacao / cold beer on the various terraces. This secluded hotel is accessible by public speedboat (“lanchas”) from Panjachel (Q25) or from the other town around the lake. It is also a short walk from Jabalito, a very small local village. It is possible to walk along the trail from Santa Cruz to Jabalito. We did this, but it is important to note both that the hike is unmarked and that we were warned by locals that it can become dangerous along the trail later in the day. The must-visit towns on the shores Lake Atitlán: 1. San Juan La Laguna - This colourful pueblo is the most culturally rich in indigenous Mayan culture that we visited around Lake Atitlán. The town is well known for its intricately woven textile crafts - we loved exploring all the markets along the colourful streets. We also did a cacao tour and tasting, which we highly recommend if you want to understand the traditional production process. San Juan is a short tuk tuk or ferry ride from the buzzing backpacker village of San Pedro La Laguna, which incidentally we really weren’t keen on, so it was great to be able to escape the booming music and slightly dingy vibes. 2. San Marcos La Laguna - San Marcos La Laguna is a haven for travellers seeking spirituality, wellness and yoga. It slightly lacks authenticity because of this, but we loved its vegan restaurants and delicious coffee. San Marcos la Laguna is home to the Cerro Tzankujil Nature Reserve, also known as the Reserva Natural Atitlán. It is a protected area and ecological reserve that encompasses a portion of the lake's shoreline and surrounding hills. For a small entrance fee, you can visit this reserve and swim in the lake. 3. Jaibalito - Jaibalito is a small and peaceful community that was the least touristy village that we visited. It is a short walk along the shore from Casa del Mundo, where we were staying. We also hiked there from Santa Cruz La Laguna, which is an (unmarked!) trail through the lush hills of the lake. It is worth visiting if you are staying at Casa del Mundo and grabbing a bite to eat at the lakeside restaurant. 00:00 - Intro 00:30 - Arriving at Lake Atitlán 01:57 - La Casa del Mundo 06:20 - San Marcos La Laguna 07:38 - Santa Cruz La Laguna 10:58 - Jaibalito 12:27 - La Casa del Mundo 16:27 - San Pedro La Laguna 16:40 - San Juan La Laguna 19:36 - San Pedro La Laguna 21:06 - Next Time: Antigua & Acatenango #guatemala #atitlan #lakeatitlan
