Holiday houses in Los Encuentros

Jean was an outstanding host. From the moment I arrived, his attention was impeccable. The day I spent it was beautiful, in large part thanks to their excellent recommendations of the area, which allowed me to discover charming places that I would not have otherwise found. Their genuine kindness and warmth made me feel very comfortable and welcome. Without a doubt, my experience was so positive that I was really looking forward to returning. I highly recommend her stay and hope to return!

The location was perfect: it was just outside of town, which is exactly what you want: Panajachel can be loud with all of the cars and exhaust fumes - so you definitely want to stay just outside of town, like this Airbnb. Once we checked in, Gabriel helped order a tuk-tuk, and we got that driver's Whatapp number, and used him all week, which made it feel like we had a private driver on call - highly recommend doing the same; and the tuk tuks were very cheap. We also booked the couple's massage and private boat tour through Gabriel - again, highly recommend doing both. We also had a rental car, and the parking spot was convenient. We ended up not having time to use the hot tub.

We had a great stay at Augustus’ place. Taking the path along the water, it’s 5 min walk to the main pedestrian street of San Marcos. Place was spotless, and the view and entryway patio is awesome. There were some water issues of first days, heat and pressure, we let Augustus know and he was able to resolve quickly. Thanks for a great stay!

The home was beautiful with an incredible views and Victorian was amazing and very helpful definitely recommend this place.

Our favourite part was the deck surrounded by garden, and a beautiful view of the volcanoes. Location was very peaceful, and only a short tuk tuk ride into town. Daniela and Jessi were super helpful. We had a great stay!

This place exceeded our expectations, it was even more beautiful than the photos! The living space is spacious and breathtaking, with a stunning yard that offers an unobstructed view of the volcano. The kitchen was fantastic, and we loved spending our evenings cooking dinner and grilling on the barbecue. Every night, we used the temazcal (like a sauna), which made our stay even more special. Lesley and the groundskeeper were incredibly responsive, kind, and made us feel right at home. Lesley also shared local recommendations and kept us informed about daily events in San Marcos. An unforgettable stay, we wish we could have stayed longer!

The house is very beautiful. A lovely design and filled with beautiful touches and artwork. An amazing view off the veranda, and the gardens are relaxing and full of birds. We all enjoyed the clean pool very much too. Overall it was an amazing place to relax and recharge. There is a walk up to the local village of Santa Clara or tuk tuks to take you up the hill, and the village has a produce market on Saturdays. We also recommend CECAP for great meals with the best view, as well as fair trade traditional handicrafts. It was easy to get a boat at the public dock. It’s probably easiest to arrange your own driver and boat to the private dock as then it’s easy to contact them if they do not turn up or know where to go (problems we had through no fault of the host). Definitely shop in Pana as the shops are very small in Santa Clara. Be aware it was hazy every day for 6 days and apparently this is common in April (or other months too?) because of cane burning. However, the advantage of the

We recently had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful house, and I have to say, Adolfo was an exceptional host. From the moment we arrived, he made sure everything was perfect for us. His hospitality was above and beyond, offering helpful recommendations, answering any questions we had, and making sure we were comfortable throughout our stay. The house itself was gorgeous, well-maintained, and had everything we needed. Adolfo's kindness and attentiveness really made our family’s trip memorable, and we are so grateful for his help. Highly recommend!

Had a great time, loved it!
