Staff was EXTREMELY kind and welcoming. I assumed boat transportation would be as easy as other parts of the lake which led me to not have transportation when it was time for me to arrive at the hotel. The hotel was incredibly helpful and helped me get on a public boat which saved me from paying $100 for a public boat. The hotel is VERY secluded and it felt like I was the only person there. I definitely should have picked something closer to other towns because I felt like I wasted a day of my trip however that was 100% my fault. Would stay here again but with plans to have more of a relaxing vacation instead of traveling. Definitely don’t book if you are looking to travel around the lake and maximize your time however if you are looking for a slow relaxing day or few days this is a great option especially if you’re willing to book one of the more expensive rooms.
You only arrive there by boat so make sure you contact hotel ahead of time. We did and they were very helpful with the arrangements even though we arrived after regular hours.
We can't say enough of our stay at Kaalpul, very peaceful and isolated while still easily connected to the little towns around the lake.
Food and attention was amazing as well as the friendliness of the staff, kitchen and bar.
We look forward to staying there again, with our family next time.
Kaalpul lived up to the hype of the photos! Staff were extremely attentive and warm. Only thing to keep in mind is that you will need a boat to get everywhere, but part of the charm.
Alexis was very helpful through the whole check in and stay. The property can only be accessed by the water. Alexis connected with us through WhatsApp to make communication easier and answer any questions we had. It took us quite awhile to reach Lake Atitlan due to traffic but we were able to take a water taxi to the hotel from Panajachel. There are several stairs to climb but the staff was very helpful in carrying our luggage. The rooms are spacious and provide a unique experience away from the busy cities of San Pedro and Panajachel. Alexis cooked us a lovely dinner each night of traditional Guatemala cuisine which was delicious!
Beautiful hotel. It is very isolated and the only way to come and go is by boat. The staff were very friendly and accomodating. The food was ok, but a little plain for the price.
I had an absolutely spectacular stay at Atitlán Oasis Eco Hotel and Spa Kaalpul in San Antonio Palopó, Sololá, Guatemala. From the moment we arrived, the place felt like a sanctuary. The facilities are beautiful and thoughtfully designed, perfectly blending comfort with the natural beauty of Lake Atitlán. There is a deep sense of peace throughout the property—it’s the kind of place where you truly disconnect from the world and reconnect with what matters.
What made our experience truly unforgettable, however, was the incredible staff, led by Alexis, who is without a doubt one of the best hosts I have ever met. She went above and beyond to help create a very special atmosphere and decoration for my girlfriend and me, as we came to spend a few days resting and reconnecting. Her warmth, attention to detail, and genuine care made the experience deeply personal and memorable.
The food was spectacular, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable, and the terrace is simply magical—whether you're enjoying a cocktail at sunset or having breakfast with an incredible view of the lake.
If you are looking for a place that combines tranquility, beauty, exceptional service, and unforgettable moments, Atitlán Oasis Eco Hotel and Spa Kaalpul is truly a gem. We will definitely return.
José and Alexis’ service was impeccable from the start to the finish of my stay. All of the comforts you could ask for at an eco-conscious establishment are here- you’re asked to get in touch with, and respect, nature. Two wonderful pups, Gina and Gucci, roam the property but can be contained if you’re not a cute pup person (but who isn’t?) Obviously, this hotel is pet friendly. Only accessible by a lancha (boat), you’ll achieve the peace and quiet you’ve been craving, and wake up/fall asleep to the sounds of Lago Atitlán. Private swimming area, nice bar/restaurant area with gorgeous views. The most important thing about this hotel is that it’s blessed by the Maya of the region, maintaining the sacred nature of the lake and respecting its natives. I was honored to be shown, by José, the Mayan altar that sits at the top of the hotel.
From the moment we arrived; we enjoyed every second there. The hotel is on a private property so the only ones at the hotel are the employees and the guest so we felt safe. The hotel is so beautiful; they really keep the concept of the Oasis by not having wifi and tv so the guest can literally just enjoy the view; the sound of all the birds; and just relax without the distractions of technology.
The food… omg it was AMAZING. We tried every single option on the menu and we were blown away. Everything was delicious including the hot chocolates. If you let Alexis do her thing; you won’t be disappointed cause she knows what she is doing with the food and drinks.
Jose; one of the employee there is the man! He took care of us from the moment we landed until we left. Very kind man; he answered all of our questions about Guatemala Culture and always made sure we felt at home.
Overall we loved it here and definitely will be coming back. We enjoyed it; from meeting the hotel pets; from getting to know the employees to just enjoying the oasis; we loved it.

Avoid at All Costs – A Nightmare Experience at Atitlan Oasis Eco Hotel & Spa Kaapul
I booked a stay at Atitlan Oasis Eco Hotel & Spa Kaapul for December 30th to January 1st, expecting a relaxing and memorable New Year’s celebration. The hotel was listed as available across multiple booking platforms, and I reserved their “Design Room,” anticipating a great experience. However, what followed was an absolute nightmare.
At 2:00 a.m. on our check-in day, the hotel contacted me via WhatsApp to inform me they were canceling our reservation. Yes, you read that right—2:00 in the morning. Thankfully, I was awake to see the message. I immediately told them this was unacceptable and explained the impossibility of finding alternate accommodations during peak New Year’s season. Instead of offering any solutions, they coldly responded with, “Sorry, I can’t do anything. Please don’t come to the hotel because there won’t be a room for you. Ask Expedia for a refund.”
I was in complete shock. Their lack of responsibility or care was appalling. I asked the hotel to help find alternative accommodations since they were canceling at the last minute, but they simply refused, claiming it wasn’t their problem. So there I was, at 3 a.m., scrambling to contact Expedia, on hold for hours, trying to get my refund and find another hotel in the middle of peak season—all because this hotel failed to honor its
The staff was so welcoming and helpful every step of the way, food and drinks on site were delicious and they also helped us book our travel via boat to the different ports. 10/10
This place as more than I could have expected! Alexis and the staff was amazing. Took care of pretty much everything we needed.
If you are looking for a unique place and memorable... you have found it!

staff was amazing, water heater didn't work properly, either way too hot or too cold.
we were the only guest at the hotel for a couple of days and even that the breakfast was included , they couldn't bend the rules to let us eat before they started serving breakfast...
you can only access the hotel by boat, and it is in the less populated area of the lake, making it harder to move around...
It was a nice place to stay . Beautiful view and the staff was excellent. Is not a good place for people with bad joints , because of the steps to some rooms. But if you have a healthy knee this place is beautiful.
