Wow...when they say this is supposed to be one of the best hotels in the country they certainly were right! It is really such a special place, the most beautiful views you will ever see. So much love and effort has been put into this place by the family over the years and it amazing to see the photos of... More

I have been staying at Casa del Mundo since 1997. This place has it all: beauty, comfort, tranquility, great food, kind staff & owners who really care about Guatemala & environmental impact. Accessible by boat, your first view of this place spells MAGIC! Their web page is accurate & inclusive. GO GO GO! Swim in the lake, enjoy the wood... More

I visited La Casa del Mundo with my partner in January this year, with my partner who had stayed there twice previously and considers it is one of the best places in the world to stay. It certainly lived up to this expectation--the rooms are individually set in the grounds which are beautifully tended and to wake in the morning... More

We made La Casa del Mundo the last stop in our trip to Guatemala, and it was definitely worth it. We had fortunately already visited the towns around Lake Atitlan earlier in our trip and therefore didn't feel compelled to leave the hotel during our 3 night stay. The view is amazing, as the photos indicate and with that alone... More

The setting, the views, the lovely touches and attention to detail across the whole property make this a place to remember. The better rooms are a little pricey for Guatemala but are worth every penny. After all it's still cheap compared to home This is our fourth 3 month winter trip and this place ranks as one of the most... More

I have been to La Casa del Mundo several times over the past few years and this is definitely one of my favorite places in the world. The hotel is thoughtfully designed and the views of the lake and volcanoes from the rooms, terraces, and balconies are just stunning. The owners and staff are incredibly friendly, accommodating, and professional. The... More

I loved my experience at Casa Del Mundo. The staff was warm and welcoming, the food was delicious and the location was absolutely stunning. We stayed for only a few days for our friends' beautiful wedding. Our room faced the lake and brought in great sunlight. I would definitely go back here. More

I just returned from my third visit to LCDM and I can't wait to go back. The location is just stunning, the food delicious (and more than generous), and the staff incredibly helpful. While there are many great sites around the lake, the last two times I visited, I didn't leave the grounds of LCDM, because why would you? It's... More

The setting, the views, the service, the entire manner in which Casa del Mundo is laid out and the philosophy from which it was conceived make it one the few "unmissable" hotels I have ever stayed at. More
