The staff were all amazing, friendly and helpful. The room was clean, we were upgraded from a queen to a king, which was great but the wifi was not too good. The breakfast was very good.

The staff who greeted us at check in was rude, but most of the staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was good and included. Coffee was amazing. I drank it without creamer and enjoyed it. Our room was equipped with everything we needed, and the water was hot. However, the water flow is very slow and will take a while to rinse shampoo/conditioner out of long hair. To note—some of the employees don’t speak Spanish well, only their dialect. My husband, who speaks 3 languages, had some difficulty with communication (some of the employees, not all). The hotel landscape is beautiful.

Perla Maya Hotel was in a great location! It was easy and walkable to restaurants. shopping and ferry locations. The hotel staff is very exceptional, they make your stay feel like home. Thank you Jose Manuel, Domingo, Tomas and Daniel for making us feel safe and also thank you kitchen staff Claudia and Michelle for great breakfasts. I will definitely return to this hotel next time I come to Panajachel!

It was a very pretty property and the staff was great. We just happened to be in a room where we could hear everyone passing by so it was noisy

Staff was great. Room was a dump. Bedding smelled terrible. Leak in the bathroom. Noise kept us up all night. Power went out in the morning. Stay at your own risk.

Amazing views and rooms for a family vacation!
Staff were amazing and super friendly.
Our kids loved the breakfast, the pool, and the talking parrot that lives at the property.
We loved hanging out on the terrace with wonderful views of the lake.
Area was very safe and we had no concerns walking from the hotel into central Pana. Only had to walk a block or two to find a tuctuc.
It was an amazing stay!

It was nice especially the view from the terrace and even from our 3rd floor room. It’s on the one end of town but we didn’t mind walking and it felt safe. Showers took awhile to get hot and low water pressure but nice atmosphere. Perfect midrange option.

Beautiful stay in Atitlan
We really enjoyed our stay at Perla Maya! The location is beautiful with great views of volcanoes. It is off the beaten path which we enjoyed, as it provided a quiet & peaceful visit and it was amazing to sit outside for a delicious tipico breakfast! Room was clean, we had 4 ppl and it didn't feel too small, bathroom was very clean & spacious!
The staff were very friendly & helpful with recommendations on getting around. Secure parking area is well lit & safe.
