El hotel tiene unas vistas espectaculares del lago y el rostro maya desde CADA habitación. Tiene su propio muelle que hace más accesible el transporte por el lago. El personal del hotel es sumamente amable y hace la gestión para pedir lancha cada vez que se necesita. Los desayunos son completos y variados e incluídos en la tarifa. Es un hotel tranquilo y sus alrededores están muy bien cuidados. Hay que tener en cuenta antes de reservar que NO tienen tv, ni a/c y el agua de la ducha es templada, no hay agua caliente. Pero estos dos factores se entienden porque es un hotel ecológico. Las personas con dificultad en su movilidad deben saber que hay que subir escaleras para acceder a las habitaciones y las diferentes áreas del hotel. Está cerca del centro del pueblo San Juan, a donde puedes ir caminando con facilidad y seguridad. Si buscas tranquilidad y buenas vistas este hotel es para ti.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at this hotel. Everything exceeded my expectations from the moment I arrived. The view of the lake from the hotel was absolutely breathtaking and one of the highlights of my stay. Waking up to such a beautiful view every day made the experience even more special.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, and the service was outstanding throughout my stay. The food was delicious, with every meal being fresh and full of flavor. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it easy to relax and enjoy every moment.

Overall, everything was perfect. I couldn’t have asked for a better stay, and I highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable vacation. I will definitely be coming back the next time I visit. Thank you for making my stay so special!

The room was clean, basic, no frills. Breakfast was included and very good, a couple options available. 7:30a-8:30a. The restaurant was very good with a great view, only open until 8:30p. Filtered water was available to refill your water bottle in the restaurant. Be ready for lots of steps! If you have any issue with steps, this is not the hotel for you. Steep and rocky steps to/from the main road. Quite a few steps up from the direction of the dock. Great little shortcut to the dock by going “down/behind” the hotel toward San Juan. Wonderful staff, cozy place, would recommend!

The property is beautiful and you get great views of the lake. It is close to town if you want to walk or they can call a tuk-tuk to come get you. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here!

This hotel was exactly what I needed. It was close to town but far enough away where it felt secluded and peaceful. The view of the lake and the breakfast were spectacular. It is a bit tricky to get to if you’re not familiar with the area, you can show the driver of the Lancha the name of the hotel and they will drop you off right at the dock. Otherwise you’ll have to walk 10 minutes from the town dock. The shower doesn’t get super hot, it gets warm. Overall I’d recommend this place and would stay there again, all the people there were super friendly and helpful as well.

Pros:
1. The staff was lovely and very helpful
2. Internet was pretty decent
3. Views from the hotel were magnificent

Cons
Take the ECO in the name very very seriously
1. There was no air conditioning
2. Had to carry my luggage through a dirt path and also a flight of stairs
3. The towel I was given has dirt stains on it but the staff changed it immediately
4. The provided breakfast wasn’t great

If I knew better, I definitely won’t have picked this property; but all in all, I think everything wrong with it was tied it being ECO.

We were quite pleased to have found this eco hotel. It is basic but comfortable, quiet (except for the birds!) and clean. You can tell there is pride in the property. The staff are lovely and helpful (in Spanish mostly). If you ask, they will call a ferry for you to the private dock. The Mayan sauna and jacuzzi are a neat touch but you have to make a reservation and pay more to access. Kayaks are free to use (but go in the morning before the wind picks up). There is no hot water and beware the many stairs to get to your room. Breakfast was included and yummy.

Highly recommend staying here in San Juan! It's a bit off the beaten path so it's quiet and peaceful but still super close to everything. The included breakfast was great. They have their own private dock to make for easier travel after your stay. I wish I had known I could use that when I got here! The balcony was absolutely stunning and I ended up relaxing here much more than anticipated. They also have kayaks you can use on the property.

I was so lucky to get a last minute booking with them! The space is so cute and and might be one of the best views in San Juan. The entrance was a bit off the beaten path (hidden) but it’s a quick 10 minute walk to the art street. Staff was super attentive even during a black out we had. Very cute vibe too.

Only good thing was our room was clean and the location good. Breakfast was edible but even rating it good would be a giant stretch. No screens on our window which they said they would provide and never did. Lots of bugs. And then to top it off overcharged us on our rooms. There are other options I would choose next time.

Uxlabil is up off the main road between San Pedro and San Juan. An \"Eco Hotel\"(whatever that means here) with nice views that overlook the bay in a rustic garden setting.

Pros:

- nice views from outside the rooms, hammocks as well
- clean room
- nice garden
- dock area, although not much info shared about it but you can see it

Cons:
- many many stairs from the main road/entrance to the reception, beware if you are older/have kids. Might be better to enter from the dock.

- Check-in: not much information shared about anything really. Had to wander around to find the path to San Juan, gardens, restaurant, dock etc.

- Check-out: mostly ruined the experience for me. I checked in and had no issues regarding this, but checking out the front desk insisted I pay an additional 125Q because the booking was made for \"one person\" instead of two.. 125Q is around 30% of the cost of the stay - never had this issue in the past , and I usually search and book for one to uncover hostel options. Felt like a rip off especially because nothing was said about this when checking in - at this cost I wouldn't have stayed here.

- Breakfast was included (which makes slightly more sense as to the additional person cost) but it was unimpressive, and did not have any coffee refills, no tortillas and no fruit/juice as mentioned on the menu. Likely understaffed because the poor (wonderful) ladies working there were all over.

Overall - I wouldve stayed elsewhere if I had known the true total cost.

Spacious, quiet room with a beautiful view. The hotel restaurant has one of the best settings in San Juan, and we really enjoyed the food. Service was very courteous. Convenient path to San Juan town, plus the hotel has its own pier for boat access. Free kayaks for guests were a great bonus.

We found the property to be quite loud throughout the entire night. The window in our room was only wood shutters (no glass) and there was much road noise, honking horns, dogs barking and fireworks. Additionally, our room was up VERY steep stairs (approx. 200) with limited handrails. This wasn’t advertised or mentioned when we made the reservation or checked in. We are in our mid 50’s and in decent shape and struggled with these steps, not safe for children.

The breakfast that was included was delicious and all the staff was friendly and courteous.

Expect to encounter pleasant and welcoming staff and fantastic, rustic landscaping. As for the room, you may be best served contacting directly to confirm the room and to have a reasonable expectation. Our expectation was not met and the room we had matched no other pictures on any of the listings. Everything on Expedia looks luxurious compared to our room. I did see a recent review posted on google in which the picture of the bathroom looked identical, and they expressed a similar opinion.
Again, there appeared to be nice rooms to stay in. We were given, what we can only hope, was the most rundown and rustic room.

Disappointing. A lot incorrect or misleading items on listing. Many of the activities listed were not evident. Minimal communication about facilities.
This was the most expensive hotel we stayed in in Guatemala and it provided the least amenities.
We were given a room in an annex [that is not mentioned in the listing] which was so far from the main building that the Wi-Fi did not reach it. When we asked to change we were told that nothing was available yet the next morning early, before the maids arrived, we walked past two empty rooms. The stairs to the room were dangerous especially at night because of building debris that had not been cleared.
Not sure what the Eco in the hotel name denotes but it is neither ecological or economical.
The restaurant hours were not greatly convenient and the breakfast service so erratic that we opted to eat elsewhere in the evening when we would have otherwise patronised the hotel
The whole place is badly maintained run down and cheaply run.

Beautiful location - however, the room was not great. The shower only had cold water, regardless of how long it was left to run for, and the hotel definitely had more of a hostel vibe. Lots of dead bugs/dust in the bathroom. The balcony is shared and is right outside the window, meaning you need the curtains pulled at all times; otherwise, other people can just peer in. Wasn't a big fan of the food. Overall, OK experience, but could've been improved with warm water and more privacy.

I truly loved my stay here. It exceeded my expectations. The amenities were amazing, from the complimentary breakfast to direct lake access with included kayaks. Being able to bring my pet along made it even better!

The staff were wonderful, friendly, attentive, and always willing to help with anything I needed. The rooms were beautiful, very clean, and the beds were extremely comfortable, making it easy to relax and enjoy the stay.

The property itself is stunning. Perfect for spending time outdoors, connecting with nature, and taking in the peaceful views. The free breakfast was traditional, fresh, and absolutely delicious.

I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would definitely stay here again!

This eco hotel has many charms, not least because it is in walking distant of the charming streets on San Juan. The highlight was our lovely and spacious room which overlooked the Lake - such a beautiful view! However, the property had so many steps that were steep, slippy at times, broken handrails and just unkempt. As an older person, I really had difficulty climbing / descending the steps 2-3 times a day and would not recommend for anyone that may have a disability, young children or like me, with not so young knees!

The people who work at the hotel are hardworking and friendly. The rooms are laid out in an uncomfortable manner. The bathroom door was next to the head of the bed and there were not enough chairs to sit on. The views of Lake Atitlan are spectacular! However, most of the outside furniture was broken so you could not sit down to enjoy it The restaurant has decent food and options. Finally, the shower was incredibly tiny, with the most basic faucets, the types that would typically be used for outdoor plumbing and gardening.

Beautiful place! One of the best places you can stay. Gardens are beautiful. All hotel has great views. Room were great, confy, clean, culturally decorated, all the place was just beautiful! The hotel even calls the boat for you to be picked up right from the hotel to go to the other beautiful towns in the atitlan lake. And if you need to go to the town, you can just walk to the most turistic points that are in walking distance but if you dont feel like walking they call you a tuk tuk for you to ride! The hotel also has kayaks and life jackets you can use for free. Breakfast is great and FREE. Parking is a bit confusing as you park in an area near by the lake and you walk towards the lake then find a sign that guides you through the fields that crosses other lands and you take stairs that lead to the hotel. Youget the beautiful views from your room as all rooms faced the lake. They have great service and all the staff was super friendly. Overall i was super satisfiedwith everything. Thank you so much. I'll always recommend this hotel to everyone who visits San Juan de los lagos Atitlan

Great location, beautiful grounds.

Great stay. It is an eco hotel, so it’s not necessarily for the most high maintenance of people who are used to the Hilton. But the rooms were clean and comfortable, the property is beautiful, the location is great— short walk to San Juan, the food is delicious, and the staff is very friendly. Wish I could’ve stayed longer but they were booked up.

My experience at eco hotel uxlabil atitlan has been the best for my first solo trip. The people there are so kind, workers and the people of San Juan. There is a nice view of the lake and the food they serve is amazing. I highly recommend staying here if you are going to lake Attila. You are supporting the locals with your stay here and I was also recommended by the receptionist to a cooking class with Maribel who is the sweetest and kindest person I’ve meet during my stay. Thank you to eco hotel uxlabil atitlan for everything and especially to the people in San Juan who are very welcoming

Hôtel très sommaire. À flan de colline avec des marches à n'en plus finir. Par contre une jolie vue sur le lac. L'accès au parking était impossible à cause de travaux dans la rue (finition pas pour tout de suite...)aussi nous avons garé notre voiture dans un parking payant. Personnel gentil et souriant.

Very charming hotel overlooking the lake. Lovely landscaping made for beautiful outdoor spaces to lie in a hammock, sit by the water, etc. Our room was clean and nice, but the bathroom and sheets could have been better. Breakfast was good - you get some options of traditional Guatemalan, more American style, pancakes, yogurt/granola etc. It is built into the hillside over the lake so there is some walking up and down to get around, but the staff kindly helped us with our luggage. No TVs in our room so would recommend bringing books / a deck of cards. We enjoyed using the free kayaks but were a little disappointed the hot tub was an additional charge.

The area is in between San Juan and San Pedro - it's an easy walk into San Juan by a path down by the water, and easy to walk into San Pedro too but it's along a main road without sidewalks. Tuktuks are cheap and easy ways to get around, as are water taxis.

Enjoyed 3 nights stay at Uxlabil. It's not a typical hotel and could classify as a mini-resort with quiet a few things to do. You can take a nature walk, get a massage, take sauna and explore the lake on a kayak. On-site restaurant serves free breakfast and delicious options for lunch and dinner. Staff is very helpful always with a smile.
Rooms are basic but spacious. Each floor has a lookout terrace where you can sit on a chair or sofa or lounge in a hammock to take in panoramic views of hills and lake throughout the day.
One thing annoying though no fault of the hotel is the loud horn sounds buses make while passing by the road close to the hotel. It can wake you up in middle of night.

Beautiful view and a good breakfast, but Not a 3 ⭐

I booked the hotel thru Expedia. I arrived at the address, but all I could see was a doorway that led to a mountainside. Finally had my friends leave me, and I made my way down hundreds of feet of the vertical mountain side, on uneven rocky steps w side rails that had fallen & were in disrepair. Finally found a building with laundry going, but as I was calling loudly for at least 5 min on the way down w no answer, I knew it wasn’t near reception.
I finally saw someone on an upper floor in another building. Even tho I was calling, I finally got near enuf to get their direct attention & they said reception was further down.
There’s no mention in the description of the hotel that is not appropriate for anyone who needs special assistance or access, Which made it very difficult, as we had one woman who needs some help walking.
Once I got to reception, they told me that the hotel parking lot has a different address than the hotel, and that it is on the bottom of the Mountainside; that you have to park and walk UP to reception at least 3 flights of steps, plus probably at least 1/8 of a mile on various paths to get to the steps. I was told by reception that they email folks info on Parking when they book, but they don’t do it when booked thru Expedia.
Great views, although some of the things in the rooms were in disrepair. They offered to carry my friend in a chair up the steps once she made it all the way from the lot, but when we returned, they said it was too late (10pm)
