High end lodging






Hola amigos,
in San Marcos you will find different types of accommodations. On top of the shelf is the hotel Aaculaax, where we are staying now. Located next to the lake Atitlan and surrounded by banana trees, green plants and beautiful flowers the place provides a lush, tropical feeling. Compared to European prices our room with a nice view onto the lake is a real bargain. It only costs 30 Euros for two persons / night. Nils (= Aacullaax in the language of the Maya) is the owner of the 9 year old hotel. He grew up in Germany, in a small town called Worpswede. In Germany this place is famous for the residence of many visual artists. The creative atmosphere of his hometown might have influenced Nils to construct an extraordinary interior. Every window, mirror, lamp, shelf and table is a unique work of art. You can easily spend the morning hours by walking around and taking pictures of the details.
Sabine is doing a yoga class every day while I am curing a little cold. Beside this we enjoy all the activities a typical summer vacation is full of.
