The drive from Antigua to Panajachel, the main town of Lake Atitlan, took us about 3 hours. It was actually a gorgeous drive through the highlands of Guatemala where the majority of the indigenous live. Living in Guatemala you get used to seeing them, but my brother has never really had a glimpse into their lifestyles and we had a blast passing them along the way.

When you book a hotel without knowing much about it, you really don’t know what you’re going to get. So you can imagine our surprise when we found out that we were staying at a 4 star hotel! Hotel Atitlan blew us away!

It was right on the lake, in its own private cove so away from the hustle and bustle of Pana, but a 5 minute drive nonetheless. We actually didn’t even want to go exploring because the grounds were so amazing, with a pool, and a small aviary.
