Panajachel Bed and Breakfasts - Reviews and Rates

Just got out of Mexico as news broke of the pig flu pandemic, but heard its in Scotland, so we are safe!!!! Crossed the border into Guatemala with ease, like the UK, they let anyone in.....even Brian.This area is sub tropical, so wet and warm and within 10 mins of our arrival, it chucked it down. Took refuge in a cafe where we attracted the atte...

Hello, We are leaving Chichi to Panajachel, a small village on the Lake Atitlan, one of the most beautifull lake in the world surounded with volcanos. It is just 1 hour drive from Chichi.

Thursday morning we took a little boat to a neighboring village, Santa Catarina. When we were in Guatemala in 2000 we had spent time in San Antonio, San Lucas Tolimán and Santiago. So we decided to go someplace new. The lake was gorgeous as always and the boat ride was too short! We stopped at the "aguas termales" just so we could touch the hot ...

hola amigos, bueanos, its is a slighty downhearted (but infinately drier!) chica that greets you today! im no longer at santa cruz, but panajachel, the main town around the lake (by 'main' i mean its got more than 2 streets! i got up this morning bright and breezy and ready to hurl myself beneath the depths of the lake once more. a daily yoga cl...

So to take a break from the studies, a few other students invited me to come along with them to Lake Atitlan for the weekend. The lake itself is absolutely gorgeous (and is written about in the "1000 Places to See Before You Die" book). When I arrived with another woman in Panajachel on Friday, we were in charge of finding a hotel/hostel. We wer...

Back on the road after two nights in Antigua, we left this morning for Panajachel and Lake Atilan. A sight not to be missed according to the guide books. Well, they were right as you can see by the pictures! The view from the mountain top nearly took my breath away. It compares with the Grand Canyon. Early morning thoughts: "What is a 55 year ol...

Hola! Nosotros podemos hablar!(un poco) Since we last wrote we have been thoroughly enjoying our time in Antigua! Good right? Tomorrow will be our final day of lessons, and as such, the day we are released into the real Spanish-speaking World. You see, Antigua is a very gringo-filled city, and as there are over 75 Spanish schools, it is very eas...

hmm what to write about panajachel... i think later i will write about my experience in the second cheapest room in town (the one with an attached bathroom - NOT a good idea when there are no windows to open). But for now i´ll say don´t bother staying for too long, there a one or two interesting places but the rest is homogenous markets for tour...

A couple days at Casa del Mundo was the perfect amount of relaxation after climbing temples in a hot jungle at Tikal and fending off puppy-size tarantulas in El Remate. And, again, we headed back to Antigua for my last night in Guatemala for a while. I was -- and am -- sad to leave Guatemala. I don't feel like I'm going to the next travel destin...
