I had the opportunity of a lifetime to experience Lee and Elaine's hospitality renting one of their beautiful lakeside casitas and taking adventage of their guide service and world-class kayaking during a six-week stay in Santa Cruz la Laguna. Los Elementos Adventure center goes far beyond most guide or adventure centers in the area, allowing clients to really get off... more

I contacted Lee personally regarding a day tour around Lake Atitlan, I had read a lot of good reviews about him on this site and wanted to give it a try. We emailed and arranged for him to give us (my sister and I) a tour to various villages aboard his private boat. When we arrived he informed us that... more

I dont often write reviews due to being busy /lazy but after spending 2 fantastic days with Lee and Elaine at Los Elementos and the associated Day Spa in this instance I felt they deserved it. I had found Lee online before our trip and contacted him to get some advice and ideas of things to do around the lake... more

I highly recommend Los Elementos for planning adventures on Lake Atitlan. Two friends and I had a great time kayaking, swimming, and visiting small villages on the lake and cooperatives attempting to sustain traditional ways of life. Lee, the owner of Los Elementos, was a great guide and very hospitable. He can customize a number of adventures ranging from hiking... more

I'm currently spending ten days travelling around Guatemala and was recommended a hike at Santa Cruz, on Lake Atitlan, with Los Elementos. The company is run by Lee and Elaine and they offer a range of experiences from hiking to kaying and massages. They were both very welcoming and tailored the hike to my level. I did not feel pushed... more

Very relaxed atmosphere with... more

Los Elementos is so beautifully landscapes and quiite. The water of the lake is crystal clear blue. What a great place for and massage and manicure. Afterwards enjoy a book on the upper deck while working on your tan. If you like more activity on your vacation, Lee can take you on a guided hike up the mountain. Since living... more

Lee runs a great business. He is very laid back, helpful, and provides tourists with a great method of seeing the lake without the noise of a motor. He points out different areas on a map that are great to visit and swim in seclusion-- I highly recommend renting kayaks from Los Elementos if you are looking for a peaceful... more
