About this property

Most Spectacular View and Sunsets on Magnificent Lake Atitlan

Casa Tzampoc is nestled on a hill overlooking the 3 volcanos that created Lake Atitlan. It is situated between the Mayan villages of Santa Catarina Palopo and San Antonio Palopo and next to two of the most prestigious boutique hotels on the lake. Restaurants and fabulous shopping for local crafts are located minutes away in authentic Mayan villages and the larger town of Panajachel.

The house is furnished exclusively with antique and hand made furniture, local textiles, ceramics and crafts. The kitchen is fully equipped for a gourmet cook, which can be arranged. The interior space is separated by an atrium and stairs to private bedroom and bathroom areas. There are views of the volcanos and outside areas from every room through beautiful mahogany windows and doors.

The private swimming pool, nestled in the garden, is heated by solar panels and maintained every day by Nicholas, our houseman. The house is beautifully kept every morning by Suli, our maid.

All transportation and excursions can be arranged with advance notice.

Waking up to volcano views

Book it! Absolutely amazing place, location, service, food. Every room has a view and outdoor access. Nicolas, Daniel, Ramiro, and the cleaning lady were all top notch. Booking lanchas and tours with them were a breeze and cheaper/on par for pricing. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

Wow

What a wonderful stay! The property has the most amazing view! They go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. Fresh flowers, a clean everyday, pool towels. Daniel is awesome and very helpful. He will help you with anything! We loved teresa and would highly recommend getting breakfast cooked for you ! The masseuse was also fantastic.My only complaint is the maintenance man came into the property quite a bit. Sometimes six times a day. It just didn’t feel quite as private as we wanted.Book this place you won’t regret it!

Beautiful property

My husband and I have been lucky enough to stay at many beautiful properties over the years and place is at the top of the list. The grounds keeper Nico and house keeper Theresa are hard working and couldn't be nicer. Communication with the property manager was great and he set up transportation, massages and a chef prepared dinner for us, all wonderful. The driveway leading to the property is very steep. This is something to consider, but would not deter us from staying here again. Abner put us in touch with Romero who drove us here and there when we needed and his truck had no problem navigating the hill. Side note, most destinations in this area are on a steep hill because of the topography of the area.

Great place to stay (except for driveway)

First of all, the house is beautiful, and very nicely appointed. Even more impressed, the view is spectacular. The patios were spacious with plenty of seating options. The pool was very clean well kept up. The inside & outside fireplaces were already set up with wood which was a nice touch. The service is excellent. Daniel, the property mgr was very responsive and super helpful. Teresa, Ramiro and Nico were also very helpful. The reason we didn’t give it 5 stars is because getting up and down the driveway is treacherous. To be fair they were there to assist us, but it was still very difficult to navigate. Some more minor issues include; pans & cookware need refreshing, no pool towels, BBQ grill is on its last legs, several of the doors and windows stuck and more bathroom towels would be nice. I really don’t want to scare you away. It’s a beautiful property and very enjoyable once you get up and down the driveway. Just be aware.

Happy

The home we stayed in was exceptionally beautiful and full with local textiles. There was so much detail. My mother said it was the most beautiful house she had been in. The property coordinator was very helpful and tentative. The driver was very pleasant….. and Teresa!! We wanted to take her home. She is so sweet and joyful. Thank you

Dificultad para llegar

Llegar a la casa en auto es casi imposible. Debería estar escrito entre las características de la casa para poder tomar la decisión de llegar en auto o buscar solución. La piscina estaba sucia. El empleado que se supone ayuda en la casa no estuvo en la casa y no ayudó con las maletas ni nada Por ese precio creo que no recomiendo la casa.

Beautiful house beautiful view

The views of the Lake are impeccable. House was well stocked completely clean. I would highly recommend this house. I especially appreciated the concierge help for planning our lake day, shuttles to and from Lake Atitlán, this alone was very important in our trip. Relax and take in the magic of Lago Atitlán in this great spot!

We celebrated my mother’s birthday at the Lake and this home was amazing! All of the staff were super helpful and friendly. Whenever I had questions, the concierge Abner, was only a text away. I would recommend this place to anyone who’s stays in this area.

Amazing views and relaxing getaway.

My 5 friends and I had a wonderful week stay celebrating my birthday. The staff (Teresa, Nicolas, Milton, and Ramiro) and concierge (Daniel) were so friendly, helpful, and kind. Even though the house is a little remote, we always felt like we were a text message away from getting what we needed. The house is beautiful and fully stocked with everything you need. We took advantage of the services that were provided like the traditional Guatemalan breakfast and dinner cooked by the talented chefs. The massages were euphoric and definitely worth it. We loved the cozy fireplaces both indoor and outdoor, and used them daily. I would highly recommend this gorgeous house.

Great House with a Stunning View

The Lake Atitlan house was clean, comfortable and well appointed. Daniel, our concierge, was very helpful and Teresa was very sweet and did a great job cleaning for us. We were unable to drive our Van Rental up the steep hill, but, Ramiro always provided prompt, safe and courteous rides up and down whenever needed. The view was spectacular! And we enjoyed every minute of our stay! Many thanks to you all!!!

One of the most beautifully views in the entire country

We stayed in a lot of hotels and a lot of houses in our week trip. This was hands down the most beautiful, luxurious house we stayed at. The services were amazing as well. We had a private Chef and private masseuse come to the house. We were a little under the weather and had to cancel our private boat trip but the concierge was extremally helpful and coordinated everything over whats app. He even had the private chef cook us some chicken noodle soup which was soooo amazing. I only wish I had booked more days and had more time to experience the area.

Beautiful home

From the beginning till the end Abner and staff were very communicative and accommodating. It was my birthday and they helped to facilitate all of our excursions and trips. My only gripe would be the bedding. At the end of our well stay my hip was hurting from the mattresses. I would suggest going new mattresses. Thanks you for everything
