What an amazing place. From the location to the staff to the natural environment and facilities, La Lancha is top notch. We had a large group (four families each with children) and La Lancha staff were incredibly helpful and accommodating for our group. We look forward to staying there again soon!

Incredible Spot

I love this little spot nestled away in the jungle of Guatemala overlooking Lake Peten. It was quiet and peaceful and everything I needed to relax.

Magical lake setting

I stayed here with my son and his girlfriend and the setting is magical, serene and beautiful. We swam in the lake while watching a family of monkeys watching us from the trees and swallows dipped and flew over the lake. The service is very warm and friendly. We drank delicious cocktails, ate good food and recharges our batteries.

The property is unbelievable! This is in an excellent location, very convenient for exploring Tikal. The lake side set up is beautiful with a dock and lounge area. They also provide boating transportation, kayaks, life jackets, basically anything you can need for the lake. There’s even a handicapped accessible elevator that can take you down to the lake if you have issues with steep steps. The pool side was awesome equipped with umbrellas and loungers. The restaurant served excellent food. The bar and drinks were amazing. The service was absolutely incredible, top notch. The room itself was nice with a working AC unit, ceiling fan, and mini fridge stocked. The bathroom was nice with a size-able shower with hot water. Overall, I was very impressed with this hotel. 100/10 rating.

La Lancha provided absolutely wonderful service from the moment we booked until we left. We were greeted with scented warm towels to wash our humid faces and then whisked away to a candle lit dinner service. Our bags were bought to our room (especially grateful because of all the stairs). We stayed in a jungle facing room and we all decided we should have stayed much longer! It's absolutely stunning, the rooms are clean, the atmosphere is quiet and inviting, and the food is delicious. La Lancha is an absolute must stay if visiting Tikal (1 hour away) or Lake Peten! What a gem!

La Lancha is an amazing place to stay if you like nature. We enjoyed every minute during our stay. The staff is very accommodating and provides excellent customer service. We enjoyed the sauna (temascal), swam in the lake and the hotel crew helped us coordinate a boat sunset trip to celebrate our daughter’s birthday. The sauna and boat is at an additional cost but is definitely worthy, They offer free continental breakfast and the food is good! We rented a car in Peten which gave us the freedom of enjoying the whole area. But if you just want to enjoy the hotel is a good option too, its very relaxing, there’s a swimming pool and a mirador with a beautiful the lake view.there’s a lot of stars and it’s tiresome sometimes to go up and down but it was part of the experience that made it unique.. we did not have to worry about working out lol!

Hotel is beautiful, staff is friendly. But the food was not very good, and extremely overpriced for Guatemala. The breakfast menu was pretty large, for example, but the only "inlcuded" breakfasts were either yogurt, fruit, and granola, or 1 egg and toast. My husband asked for another egg and was told he would be charged. For dinner, the menu prices were insane, the portions were small, and the food wasn't great. I ordered a few of the vegetarian meals and one night I got a baked potato that was supposed to have grilled veggies on it for no joke-$30. It came with 2 tiny potatoes with maybe 1 Tablespoon of finely chopped (not grilled) veggies and the potatoes were raw in the middle. I had to ask for some tortillas because I was starving. My husband got a $40 steak that was small, just ok, and came with a side of chips with guac. and rice. And the problem was that the hotel is pretty far from the town so there weren't other options.

Beautiful hotel on the shore of a beautiful lake. Facilities are excellent, comfortable, even too perfect. Staff is super friendly and will help all your needs. My daughters (8 and 10) ranked it in their top 3 hotels they have visited because they had so much fun, especially in the lake and pool. Very recommended.

La primer noche de estadía fue muy agradable, sin embargo, para la segunda noche experimentamos una mala atención y fallos en los servicios que nos prometieron. - La propiedad anuncia que tiene Wi-Fi, nunca funcionó de manera estable y nos impedía estar en contacto con nuestros hijos. - El agua caliente falló en el segundo día. - La limpieza de la habitación en el segundo no fue buena, la habitación olía mal. - Ofrecen un menú más amplio para los huéspedes que llevan tres días, pero no lo comunican y es muy desagradable ver a un comensal sentado a nuestro lado con más opciones de comida que nosotros, ya que aparenta un privilegio para ellos y una discriminación para nosotros. Si nos lo hubieran dicho lo habríamos entendido. Mi esposa ama las pastas y no tuvo la opción en su menú mientras veía como en la mesa de al lado degustaban un plato de pasta. Era su cumpleaños.

The property is beautiful. We saw a lake otter, a crocodile and howler monkeys as well as many birds while visiting there and on the lake. The Lake View I room was much more than we expected. Two bathrooms!! One down side, maybe, are the steps. Eighty four from our room to the dining room and forty five to the pool. On the other hand we worked off our meals.

I loved that the "room" was not connected to others and the location was not on the path to the restaurant, etc. The room was beautifully decorated and looked out to the vista. The staff and restaurant personnel were friendly, knowledgeable and accommodating. We went on several excursions - to Tikal one day and the boat launch to Flores the next day - and the details were smooth and effortless.

Beautiful property on the lake and our room felt like a private escape. Excellent service with the staff going out of their way to ensure we had everything we needed and inquiring about our daily activities. They even packed breakfast for us when we left early for the Tikal sunrise tour and for the airport. My only minus was that I thought the food was slightly overpriced and some of the dishes lacked flavor. But overall it was great experience!
