The property was absolutely amazing. Love every little corner. The views, the pool, the staff was wonderful. The only thing that I would have to say I need was a better WiFi. My room had no WiFi and I had to step out to actually use WiFi. But other than that I was overwhelmed with the beauty of the place.

The staff at this property were amazing! When our taxi driver didn't show up on time to take us to the airport on the day we had to leave, the owner went out of his way to contact the father of one of his staff members to take us to the airport so we didn't miss our flight. Talk about going above and beyond! The breakfast every morning were amazing. everything that we ordered from the kitchen was delicious. we enjoyed the infinity pool and the hot tub, now only if we could have gotten some better weather to see the volcanoes more clearly. The rooms are not brand new but are nice and clean, the staff is top notch and make you feel like family. Would stay there again.

My fiance and I had a fantastic stay at Tzam Poc Resort and highly recommend it. The staff is outstanding and the amenities are superb — the infinity pool, the hot tub, the wood-burning sauna/steam room, the view from our private deck, a candle-lit dinner on our private deck overlooking the lake and volcanos, and beautiful breakfasts each morning on the glorious patio — we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our concierge, Darwin, is incredibly accommodating — running up the stairs to our balcony to serve us cold cervesa upon our arrival to booking a private tour of the lake — he made sure every part of our stay was to our liking. The only negative comment we could make is the water pressure in the shower and lukewarm temperature could definitely improve.

Stunning views & great service
Tzampoc Resort has one of the best views of one of the most amazing places in the world! Its infinite pool gives you the chance to feel you are swimming into Atitlán lake from the heights and touch the three volcanoes surrounding the lake. With a resident Chef, food lives up to anyone`s expectations. Staff is helpful and polite. Accommodation spaces are clean and comfortable with a superb view and tasteful decoration. If you drive yourself there, just be aware that the entrance is just for the brave... better call the Manager and have one of the staff drive your car up the steep ramp!

Quiet and somewhat remote.
The hotel is out of the main town of Panajachel which makes it quiet. The restaurants are quite far away but the place had a kitchen. We bought food in the supermarket in Pana and cooked for ourselves. The kitchen in the suite was under stocked however and we had to request everything (plates, cutlery,pots etc). They did oblige however. The view was fabulous. The hotel was high on a hill overlooking the lake. The room we had was ok but did have ants in the kitchen (so we learned to store all food in the fridge). Hot water was present but the regulator was off so you were too hot or too cold. Towels and sheets were spotless but the shower could have been cleaned better. Overall the room was ok but I thought that it was overpriced for the condition of the hotel which needed new paint, had outdated lighting and plumbing.

Great views and lovely pool are main features.
A bit disorganized and casual especially when local manager is off duty. Hotel facilities alone do not justify high price but views are superb.

Not with the price
There are many other places on the lake that are better than this place for less money. Spend your time there. The facilities are outdated and in need of repair. The pictures aren't what it looks like.

Muchas gracias! Una muy feliz estancia
Extraordinario nivel de servicio y, sin duda, tiene de las mejores vistas del lago de Atitlán. La habitación fue extraordinaria, muy amplia y cómoda, la tuna con vista al lago fue una grata sorpresa!!! El acceso puede ser complicada por la subida y las curvas cerradas para llegar al hotel, pero igual se puede resolver y el personal del hotel está al pendiente en todo momento para subsanar este tema.
