Cabins in Panajachel

The best review I can give this place is this- I had such a bad stomach infection coming from Mexico that there seemed no conceivable way I could possibly enjoy this place. I was on such strong antibiotics So the fact that I loved it, and was looked after and everything was so beautiful is a real credit to the place It’s easy to love somewhere when you feel good. I felt TERRIBLE and this place felt like a sanctuary to recover in, in the most beautiful setting

Great location and tucked away so nice and quiet. Property had good facilities although we didn’t have time to make use of them all. This property would be great especially for those looking for a base in the area for several days or more.

Lovely place in a really good location, Juan was a great host and I thought it was really good value. Quiet, comfortable and the garden is lovely. Definitely recommend 😊.

My husband and I stayed at Casa Awanima in January. The road to Casa Awanima is not to be called a road, but a concoction of rocks and dirt. But once you enter through the gate, you are in a completely different world of calm, relaxation, and joy. It is so remarkable how Kenzie (absolutely wonderful host and the owner) made the piece of jungle into a piece of paradise. We stayed in the main house. The room has a huge balcony with a hammock and chairs, and most importantly the phenomenal view of the lake and surrounding volcanos. Even from your bed you can enjoy the perfect view of a sunrise on the lake. The room has a toilet and a sink. There is an outside shower that you reach by crossing an open door kitchen. Yes, it might be quite surprising for many of us- the kitchen has all the parts of the true kitchen, but it is fully open to the outside, no doors. If you want to make your own meal, all is at your disposal. But you also can indulge into fantastic local cuisine for breakfast and lunch enjoying wonderful view of garden, lake and volcano. The garden- it is so well maintained and so rich in various plants and herbs (which you can use for your morning omlet or cup of herbal tea) that you do not need to leave the property if you just want to relax and enjoy the day. There is beautiful deck for yoga and the best part - the sauna and a cold plunge which you can enjoy in a complete privacy. I booked this place for three nights without having prior reviews, and I am so happy to say that it exceeded my expectations. Five stars honestly!

The view from the rooms is absolutely beautiful. They look exactly like the pictures. The kitchen is clean and organised. The staff were kind and so caring. When I accidentally left my bag at the property, they personally came and brought it to me in the town! The rooms are private and secluded - perfect for a quiet getaway!

So beautiful. It’s a must do! The view is so worth the hike.

This property is simply stunning!! We loved our chalet cabin surrounded by nature. Richard (the host) is the sweetest American guy. He cooked us delicious breakfast at whatever time we wanted and was always available to drive us back and forth to Santiago (closest town across the lake). The rooms are comfortable & cosy. You also have stunning views of 2 volcanoes from Richard’s deck, where you have breakfast.

Excellent communication with the host, I highly recommend this place, it’s beautiful and everyone is so kind and ready to help. Will miss this incredible villa!!

Lovely House with a lot of cute Dogs!
