Guesthouse in the Enchanted Forest ROOM 2

The POSADA del BOSQUE ENCANTADO (The Enchanted Forest) is a comfortable three room guesthouse in San Marcos La Laguna, a small Mayan village near the shores of volcanic Lake Atitlan in Guatemala. This guesthouse with its beautiful gardens is a perfect destination for musicians, writers and artists, and an excellent location for family vacations. Our rooms reflect the local flavor with natural materials utilizing wood, stone and adobe. The Posada is in a lush tropical garden and is constructed from natural materials reflecting the dying art of traditional construction of homes in the Mayan communities. Many locals now use cinder block instead of adobe. Our goal is to provide an experience that reflects traditional construction with a modern flair. The rooms are spacious and comfortable. The garden has a palapa with palm roof for lounging and visiting. We request our guests to limiting smoking to this space. The corridor and cafe deck are common spaces for reading, writing and using internet. We love to share stories with our guests and are happy to respect your privacy as well. Terry, the owner, is a musician and often is available to share some of her music with guests. Any of your hosts will be glad to help you arrange travel to or from the lake and other destinations. We are close to restaurants and cafes and other hotels. There is no vehicle access to the area, so it is quiet. We are on a quiet path away from the bustle of the activity on the path that comes up from the dock. We are 3 minutes or less walk to the nature reserve and the lake as well as a 5-7 minute walk to the dock. We are happy to help with shuttle arrangements for getting to San Marcos from the airport, Antigua, and other locations. There are boats to and from Panajachel, the shoreline villages, San Juan and San Pedro about every 20 minutes. There are also Tuc Tucs for getting around in the village and to other nearby villages. We are centrally located with restaurants and cafes nearby. WE DO OFFER A SIMPLE CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST TO HELP GET YOUR DAY STARTED FROM 8am to 10:30am. There are yoga classes around the corner and we are a three minute walk to the lake and the nature reserve. OUR BASE PRICE IS FOR ONE PERSON. IF THERE ARE TWO OR MORE PLEASE INDICATE THIS IN YOUR RESERVATION REQUEST. The Guesthouse offers three individual rooms, as well as an entire house.
