This is a great option if you want to get away and relax. Gaze at the mesmerizing Lake Atitlan, swim, kayak, read at book, catch up on emails, enjoy an afternoon siesta in a hammock, or pamper yourself at our spa (see optional spa package).

The location is beautiful. The accommodation is basic but acceptable. The hosts hearts just don’t appear to be in it. There were numerous failings during our short stay which left us with a bitter taste. They may as well just have left us a key … then at least we wouldn’t have had all of the disturbances from their day to day living and we wouldn’t have relied on them for all of the things they promise. It should be said, however, that external guides recommended were all excellent.

The place was a total disappointment. The place was not luxurious, not relaxing, there was no food available, the guys wife was the massage lady, and there were cats and dogs on the property. It looked like it was the guys house with some hammocks around the place. I couldn’t wait to leave, but it took three hours to get there from Antigua. I stayed on the property less than 20m. Do not book this tour.

Mario was a superstar tour guide. He also knows everyone and all the best places. While he prefers to guide more intense adventures, he was also great with the more laid back vibe in the little group I was part of. 100% recommend using him as a tour guide. Mario - much as gracias y matyox!
The only reason for the 4 stars vs 5 was because of the stress and confusion surrounding the departure times due to the processions in Antigua on a Sunday morning during lent, and the return in the evening. I was still uncertain, outside my hotel at 0455, if they got the message that I approved the earlier departure time.
I did feel a little bad if my age made the others in the group do less adventure than they planned, but all of them seemed chill and in favor of a slower day since we were all packing in a lot of activities in a much shorter span. Thanks!

The lake itself was an amazing experience. Thank you Lee for allowing us to come to your home and the hospitality. The restaurant next door was delicious and beautiful.
I did not give five stars and would have taken off more but I don’t want it to affect Lee’s rating however the transportation experience was horrible. They were so unprofessional going back home they had us wait over 45 mins for travelers they’d didn’t account for; then because they were behind on time they left us in some random spot in Antigua because the driver needed to continue to the city.

Transportation to and from the resort was seamless. The resort itself was absolutely beautiful and we were given a small, private cabin to relax and store our bags in. The hosts were lovely, and my daughter and I had a perfectly relaxing day kayaking on the lake and playing at the little beach near the dock. Several dining options are available a few minutes walk away near the public dock. One of the best Viator experiences I have had to date!

As my first trip out of the country in two years I was looking for cultural exploration and knowledge, relaxation, exploring the beauty of nature, and practicing my Spanish. This trip exceeded all of my expectations. Lee and his team were excellent. From the time we arrived to Guatemala City to a ride back to the airport from Lake Atitlan we were able to truly experience some of the best of Guatemalan culture, cuisine, nature, and shopping. In addition we learned so much about Mayan language, history and customs. Thank you for sharing this beautiful part of the world with us

Most beautiful views with the most kind people! Los Elementos has its own little area so we felt like we were in our own paradise. Lee and Elaine were very accommodating and sweet. It is a pretty long trip from Antigua to Lake Atitlan (took us about 3 hours on the way there and 4 hours to get back) but well worth the travel! Next time we would love to spend more time with them! Overall, would highly recommend!

We stranded at Los Elementos after we got mugged an almost all our stuff got taken away from us. Lee and his wife Elaine offered us there personal room and took care of us. Next day when we left they didn't even want to have money.
Great people helping us out when we were in a bad situation. Thanks a lot for that. We can only highly recommend this place!
Besides all that it has an amazing spot right at the Lake Atitlon.
Best regards for the US, Australia and Germany!

Was underwhelmed with my experience, I wouldn't recommend it for a day trip! The driver was an hour late to collect me with no apology and then I was shoved on a bus packed with people in the middle seat at the back with no seat belts. masssge was ok, was someone's house basically!
