+Our stay at Lake Atitlán was nothing short of unforgettable. From the moment we arrived, we were surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty,the kind that instantly makes you slow down and appreciate where you are. Waking up to the calm lake and lush greenery each morning felt almost surreal. The food was an absolute highlight. Every meal was thoughtfully prepared, fresh, and full of flavor, making it something we genuinely looked forward to each day. Dining in such a peaceful, natural setting made the experience even more special. What truly set this stay apart was the sense of adventure and excitement woven into the experience,it felt like a bit of a hidden gem, with moments that were surprising, unique, and memorable in the best way. The space itself was comfortable, well cared for, and perfectly integrated into the surroundings, allowing us to fully disconnect and relax. If you’re looking for a place that combines incredible scenery, delicious food, and a one-of-a-kind experience, this is it. We would absolutely come back.

“Private Nature Oasis”
+The atmosphere, privacy, and construction were absolutely stunning. It really felt like a private nature oasis above the lake. The bathroom and shower was perfect and great for taller people. They provided high quality shampoo and conditioner, along with natural loofahs. The breakfast was tasty and had a nice window of time so you never felt rushed. The owners were very polite and helpful. The stairs people mention were not that bad, and it's a small price for such a great view. We noticed a few bugs, but that is completely expected. The dinners were tasty as well although not included. Particularly the fajitas were good.
−The wifi didn't work most of the first night, and sometimes lasped through the rest of the stay. There was a limited amount of hot water the first night, and in the morning of the second day it didn't work. But the hosts were attentive and attempted to fix both issues.

+Probably the best accommodation I have stayed in and probably will be for a long time. The glamping tents are great, the views are unbelievable and the owners and staff are so kind and caring. The breakfast with a view and waking up to sunrise and the sounds of birds made this stay so special. The owners are also a great help in organising transport, trips and giving suggestions and advice. 10/10
−Nada, it’s perfect

“3 Words: Just Stay There”
+If you can stay here, definitely do it and book the room that has the best view. You will not be disappointed. If you are not one to enjoy the sounds of nature nor you aren't comfortable staying at a place that is pretty much 75% open to nature then this isn't the place for you. This is definitely glamping place and it exceeded all of my expectations. From the personal touches of a very comfortable bed and warm comforter and pillows, to filtered water, organic soap and shampoo, El Picnic Atitílan was the place for me. The owners are really personable and helpful and extremely communicative. I had some trepidation with my bus arriving on time to make it to the ferry from Panajachel and Gaby assured me that I could take a private boat if I missed the last ferry. Well thank goodness I didn't. Gaby also arranged for a tuk tuk to come get me because I arrived around 7:40pm after 10.5 hours of traveling. The vibe is really laid back and quiet. The breakfast and the one dinner I had was quite delicious. Breakfast is included in your stay. They will accommodate your dietary restrictions as well. When I return, I will definitely be staying here again because it was such a great experience.
−Nothing. Everything was wonderful.

“Beautiful, peaceful stay with amazing views and a truly welcoming atmosphere”
+The setting right on Lake Atitlán was beautiful and peaceful, with incredible views that made it feel really special. The space was clean, comfortable, and had such a relaxing vibe. What stood out the most was how welcoming and attentive the hosts were. They made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable. It was the perfect place for our family to unwind and take in the lake. Delicious food and friendly dogs too. I would definitely stay here again!
−There’s nothing we didn’t like. The climb up to the room was totally worth it

“Prachtig uitzicht”
+Prachtig uitzicht, verzorgde glampinghut/tent. Super vriendelijk keukenpersoneel. Lekker en fors ontbijt.
−We vonden het aan de dure kant prijs/kwaliteit, het avondmaal (weinig andere opties in de buurt) vonden we ook dat wat goedkoper had gemogen. Zeer vriendelijk keukenpersoneel, de uitbaters hebben we echter niet gezien. Wel zeer vlot bereikbaar en behulpzaam via whatsapp. Het personeel spreekt geen Engels. We vonden het wat te afgelegen, daar hadden we op voorhand beter op moeten letten.

“Buena experiencia”
+El desayuno es muy bueno, la vista desde la habitación es genial, es muy natural todo el lugar
−Es una habitación abierta, si lo que quieres es no ruido tal vez no es la mejor opcion, ya que escuchas todo el ruido alrededor, tuc tucs, perros, personas, lanchas todo se escucha. Ellos te regalan tapa oídos. Es una habitación abierta por esa razón todo se escucha, es una buena experiencia pero todo depende de tus preferencias. El restaurante solo hace una comida y es esa opción para todos, entonces no es muy positiva esa parte. Del resto todo estuvo bien
