“Carved into the cliffs of Jaibalito, this boat-access-only hotel offers breathtaking views of Lake Atitlan and its volcanoes. The opportunity to dine in a family-style setting creates a communal atmosphere, complemented by eco-friendly practices and cultural immersion. I think that its secluded location, combined with Mayan-inspired decor, results in a restorative and authentic Guatemalan experience.”
