This was one of my favorite hotel stays in 30 years of global travel. I’m a budget traveler that values natural beauty and unique locations over fancy amenities or 5 star service, so that’s my reference point. La Casa del Mundo is located on a beautiful part of Lake Atitlan with amazing views throughout the day and night. Being on a cliff, you’ll walk up and down a lot of stairs, but there are many places to have a seat and enjoy the views while you catch your breath (if needed). Also, being on a cliff, there were several jumping spots into the lake. My wife and I walked to both close villages and enjoyed slightly cheaper options on those excursions. The staff were very service minded and spoke much better English than my limited Spanish. Also, though we stayed in a budget room with a shared bathroom 10 feet away, it was no problem. Also, the shower was a separate room than the toilet so that made sharing very easy. Lastly, the grounds are beautiful and my wife and I took scores of amazing photos of the grounds and the views of the lake and volcanoes. It’s a bit remote to get to, but if you’re game for getting a bit off the beaten path and are able bodied to handle a lot of stairs, I highly recommend La Casa del Mundo!

This place was incredible. We absolutely loved the three days we spent there. We all had so much fun. The food was good but it adds up fast with drinks here and then. We spent well over a $1000 dollars in three days and The drinks are pretty water down so maybe bring a bottle with you if you want a buzz. That was the most we spent in any of our stays in Guatemala. The stairs were fine but it's a lot if you're not in shape. I saw some people struggling. But it was worth it and part of the adventure. We went swimming a lot because the water was beautiful! Also, we slept like babies every night because without fail, it rained at night and it was lovely enjoying a hot chocolate hearing the rain. The beds were not comfortable but it was fine because we were always so tired and happy to be there we still slept well. The staff was super nice and attentive. Tip is included just fyi. We will 100% come back specifically to this place when we return to Guatemala. 10/10 recommend. The drive was nice. We drove ourselves and the roads were good. Parking was easy and our car was safe. The boat people charged us an extra Q10 per person because our luggage was heavy he said. But we knew he was trying to scam us. We talked about it and decided to just give him the extra money because to us that was like a dollar and it was fine. But you can just say no and wait for another boat. Jobalito was nothing special and it was dirty with drunk passed out locals. Next time we will try the other town.

I loved staying at Casa del Mundo. I had a birthday to celebrate I requested to decorate a table for extra charge. I called them and they planned everything to perfection. A variety of flowers on table, candles and petals on the floors. So romantic! I am so satisfied with their service. Amazing views. Worth every penny I paid . Thank you to all Casa del Mundo Staff. I’ll definitely come back.
You can enjoy a beautiful sunrise

I got the deluxe suite, room 20, and the views from there are extremely gorgeous although I thought the balcony would be a little bigger. The room was decorated in an authentic native Guatemalan way, it was equipped with a queen bed and a twin bed. It also had a small living room area. It has another smaller balcony on the side facing the trees. The hot tub has to be reserved and they only reserve it twice a day so we couldn’t enjoy it during our stay. That was not a good customer experience but the friendly staff more than made up for it. They have very nice and attentive staff. There isn’t much to do in Jaibalito itself just the hotel but you can easily get a shuttle to Panajachel and explore the other villages from there. I would come here again and recommend to those looking for a relaxed or romantic getaway.
Casa del Mundo has many cute little nooks to enjoy
Everywhere you look it’s beautiful! This place is right next to the restaurant.
Dinner during sunset.
The staff were sweet enough to reserve a table for us on my birthday.

The only positive thing about this place is the view – which you can easily enjoy from many cheaper spots in the area. The prices to stay here are extremely high, and absolutely nothing is included. You have to pay extra for food, and even the amenities like the hot tub or sauna must be booked and paid for separately. For what they charge, all you really get is a bed to sleep in. There’s nothing to do in the hotel itself or in the surrounding area. Overall, not worth the money. Additionally for an entire night we lost power. Furthermore when given the bill they add a service fee/tip and when I went to calculate the bill on my own the staff were rude making jokes about me the entire time. My original bill on Expedia was $82 cheaper so I believe it was reasonable to ask what the sudden change was and look over the “fees”.
