About
WOW, WOW WOW! OUR EXPECTATIONS WERE FAR EXCEEDED WITH THIS HOUSE, IT IS SIMPLY GORGEOUS, THE VIEWS ARE INCREDIBLE, AND THE STAFF ON SITE WERE SO KIND AND WONDERFUL. HAVING A HEATED POOL AND HOT TUB WAS A SUPER PLUS AS IT DID GET COLDER AT NIGHT, THE PROPERTY MANAGER ON SITE ALWAYS EAGER TO PLEASE. ANYTHING WE NEEDED...A CALL TO THE TUK TUK FOR A RIDE INTO TOWN, OR TAKING THE POOL COVER OFF, HEATING THE SPA, ETC. THE FURNISHINGS AND DECOR ARE GORGEOUS IN THIS HOUSE. WE SIMPLY HAD AN AMAZING VACATION, WE DID TRAVEL TO MOST OF ALL THE OTHER VILLAGES, AND SAN MARCOS WAS OUR FAVORITE, AND I AM 100% SURE I CHOSE THE BEST HOUSE ON THE LAKE!!!
From the moment we arrived, we knew we were in the best possible place on the Lake. A short walk from the village of San Marcos, yet totally private, this home is more than special. Edgar, Felipe, and Antonio made sure all our needs were met. We will, most certainly return. Thank you, Blaine and Stephanie, for sharing your wonderful home.
Pictures cannot fully communicate the beauty of this place! Our family (two adults, four kids ages 14-7) stayed here for five nights over Thanksgiving week and absolutely adored it. We loved relaxing on the verandas in the hammocks, soaking in the hot tub/swimming in the beautiful infinity edge pool, Antonio cut our very own stalk of fresh bananas from the tree, Edgar was always attentive to meet the lancha (boat) when it dropped us off at night (all of the boat captains are familiar with \"Casa Blanca\"), and we were beyond impressed with the lush gardens. For activities, we spent a few days in Panajachel (the Ultra X-Treme zipline at Reserva Atitlan and paragliding with Real World - do it!) and Andrea (prop manager) arranged a coffee tour for us with Flavio which was incredibly interesting. Getting to the property is NOT an easy feat - we rented an SUV at the GUA airport and driving on the road down the mountain to get to San Marcos la Laguna was quite the adventure. There are some hairy switchbacks, and the road is filled with potholes. On the morning we left, the road was completely shut down (thankfully, there are workers trying to improve the road) but we had to take a different route back to Antigua.
Comfortable fabulous grand house full of antiques and a stunning view from every room. Delightful pool and gardens. The private dock turned out to invaluable using public boats to get home from destinations around the lake. The staff are all gems. Sweetest Mayan people and so attentive to our every whim. One of the best months stay anywhere in the world ever for us. Ma kee Osh = (Thank you in Mayan)
