San Pedro La Laguna Church of Saint Peter Hotels

"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."

"Do"

"Very comfortable bed, cute decor, but the lights rarely worked or if they did they were very dim and flickered constantly, we had to use our headlamps in the bathroom for light. There was also quite big ant problem, primarily in the bathroom and shower, occasionally on the counter and the bed. The pool and cafe were great and the staff was wonderful. I booked through Expedia and received several messages saying they only accept cash payment, either in USD or QTZ, not fond of carrying that much extra cash as this was the last stop on our trip to Guatemala, but on arrival credit card was accepted which was a bit frustrating since repeated communication between myself and the property said only cash."

"We had a great time! But just keep in mind there are many stairs to climb "

"Very nice hotel is in a convenient location in San Marcos close enough to the main road and the public dock. Solid restaurant and good customer service. Meals were good if not great. Scenic view of the lake. They did a nice job putting together transportation and activities for our visit. Just be aware that because it is in town you may hear some sounds like music and dogs close to bedtime but never after 10pm. I would stay again. "

"Clean room, excellent staff, lake view from room, beautiful garden"

"Unfortunately a very disappointing stay, the music from the bar across the street (Sublime) was so loud it took me hours to fall asleep every night and really ruined the stay. I wish there had been more disclosure of this upfront. Would not come back"

"NO FITNESS CENTER (as advertised). The Bad: construction all around hotel, extra firm bed, no hot shower and dogs barking all night. The Good: Staff, clean room and excellent location."

"We loved our stay at Refugio del Volcan. We’ve been travelling through Central America for c 8 weeks and this accommodation stands out as one of the best. We had the apartment unit at the top, which has the most incredible views of the lake! The accommodation was very comfortable and quiet at night for a great night sleep. The kitchen was well equipped and nice hot shower in the bathroom. It’s a fair distance from San Pedro town centre but walkable, and very easy to get a Tuktuk to and from the town for circa 20Q. We couldn’t fault our stay and would totally recommend to other travellers! "
