+The location right on the river is beautiful. You can rent kayaks to explore the area. The family running it is very friendly. Food is good, too.
−There was a bit of unfinished construction going on, obstructing the nice view of the river. The wifi signal barely reached our bungalow (but it was good in the restaurant area).

+Thank you Casa Maya for a magical stay! From Marta’s delicious home cooking to the comfortable and clean bungalows, everything was perfect during our stay. We had a wonderful time in this welcoming family homestay set in a unique location right on the river. We can’t wait to come back and see everyone again!

“So much potential”
+The family that run the accommodation are so friendly and helpful. The rooms are rustic but very comfortable and clean.
−Description is a little deceiving. No beach access and limited spots to relax. They do have a jetty you can jump off and sit on by the lake but it isn't very big. The food offered is simple and a little expensive for what you get. There is a restaurant further up the river but you need kayaks to get there (you can pay for a kayak from the accommodation- half day is 50Q and full 100Q). Would be nice to have a complementary kayak for use so you can explore without all the extra charges.

“If you want to spend quiet time with a wonderful family - this is your place.”
+This is a small hostel built and run by a wonderful Mayan couple with 3 kids. You get to know them as they are all working there. They are very sweet. The rooms are clean ... surprising lack of bugs and mosquitoes for being surrounded by greenery. Free kayaks to use. Food was great.
−Ain't gonna lie, I arrived on an extremely hot day and there was no fan in my room. At first I thought it was going to be miserable. But it cools down at night, and the weather changes quite a bit - my last day was downright cold. No hot water in shower - but by the end of the day a bit of cold water felt nice. Beyond kayaking, not a ton to do - but great for relaxing. In the end, all of the minor inconveniences are outweighed by the friendly family.

“Relax in a Guatemalteco and jungle atmosphere”
+Family owned, and one of the rare ones owned by a Mayan family! Dont expect everything is perfect, but you got all what you need to sleep, eat, drink, relax and they have kayaks to discover around.
