Beautiful home and location!

We stayed here in April and absolutely loved this charming home and garden as well as the fantastic views! It is truly a paradise and offered us the tranquil setting we were looking for at the end of our Guatemalan adventure. The staff at this home - especially the caretaker- were so helpful and accommodating and made us feel very welcome. My only word of caution to future guests would be that the speed boat had a bit of trouble with the weight of the six people in our party and broke down a few times. However, we still managed to get back forth as necessary so it was no big deal. I would recommend this house to anyone!

Little piece of paradise

The property and the view were absolutely amazing. The contact with Flor could not have been better and she made the trip from Antigua to Santa Cruz super easy by recommending a great driver and boat pick up. I will say to prepare to lose power at least for a little while. We lost it for 24 Hours, but it sounds like that length of time was pretty uncommon. The property and the people we encountered were all amazing. Would definitely recommend it and return.

This property and location is amazing! My favorite place sit and take it all in was on the hammock on the front porch! The view off the porch is to die for! Flor and her team did an amazing job communicating with us and making sure we felt special. I thoroughly enjoyed the culture on the lake and everyone on the lake was friendly!

Great location and cute little house

Had some bad luck here with electricity being out first night but owner was great to work with and the house is right on the water and close to Panajachel which will be your main hub while staying there. Note that staying here you will take a boat everywhere and public boats just run til 6pm and private boats are expensive so plan to have some chill evenings in the area.

Beautiful views .. cozy casa on Lake Atitlan

I had an amazing stay at Casa Paxanax. My house was well equipped, nicely decorated with fresh flowers and what a patio. Nothing like eating a meal on a cool patio surrounded by beautiful potted plants and that view of the lake and volcanos. I enjoyed my private dock which I would go sit on everyday; soak in the sun , watch the boats go by and feel that I was right in the lake. Also enjoyed a swim in the lake. Paxanax is a short distance from where you can catch a tuk tuk to Santa Cruz, but public or private boats are easily available. I had a view issues with the house. Main one being that there was construction going on behind the house and on the neighbors house to the side. Started at 7 am six days a week. That was a negative because I was counting on more quiet while enjoying my patio and outdoor area. Overall, very positive feelings about my stay. Flora the property manager was extremely responsive and always got back to me if I had a question. Paolo the property caretaker was so friendly and always helpful. I had a cleaning lady come in several times and what a thorough and beautiful job she did keeping my casa clean. Thank you to all involved. I loved being there.

My family stayed in Casa Paxanax for 4 incredible days. The location is amazing, the house is always clean and Flor is amazingly responsive to any questions. If you’re looking for a great place to stay on the lake I would not hesitate one second to lease this home. Honestly was one of the highlights of our trip to Guatemala.

Beautiful house perfect for relaxing

We were a group of six and we all fit comfortably. The house was clean and well decorated. We spent most of our time on the deck having beers and fighting for the hammock and taking in the view. We came in pretty late and only stayed one night but would all gladly stay for longer. Flor and Santos were very helpful. They left us the cutest welcome baskets and were very available if we needed anything.

Remote and quiet location right on the water

If you are looking for a quiet getaway on the lake, this is your house. Six of us arrived by boat after dark. It was quite an adventure pulling up the dock, but once we were on land we were truly in paradise. It is a smaller rustic dwelling, but the beauty is outside anyway. The sunrise from the dock, sunsets from the balcony, the hammock, the antique textiles are just a few of the great things about this house. We also walked along the trail to San Cruz where we found a great restaurant and lots of friendly locals. We highly recommend this house to adventure seekers and those looking for a quiet getaway. Not for luxury seekers.

A beautiful place to stay for our girls trip!

We stayed at Casa Paxanax for a week in October. The property is exactly as it appears on this profile. It's absolutely awesome! Plenty of room for the four of us. Flor was incredible with her assistance before and during our stay. Santos the caretaker is very kind, though he speaks almost no english so when in doubt text Flor and all communication is made 100% clear. We reached out to the neighboring property Villa Sumaya in advance of our stay and were able to book yoga classes, a hot tub, massage services and enjoy meals there during our stay at Casa Paxanax...and you can even pay them in american dollars! They were awesome too! I really can't say enough good things about this place. Thank you to everyone that manages it!

This place was amazing! Casa Paxanax is right off the lake. It was big enough for our party of 5 and was big enough for a family member that visited us for the day. The view is amazing and the view on the top room was even better. I would definitely return to this house.

Great place, quiet, relax time, sad last night power goes down

This is a great place is maybe in the best place of the this area of the lake you can swin! If you don't mind some cool water, house is nice have everything you need but cable tv (anyway you don't need it). Pros: location, hot water, kitchen, chimney, people who works here (santos and cleaning lady) are really helpful, info book Cons: slow internet but a least we had it, pier is really a little high and if you have a lot of things is a little problem... santos help you out with you things, power goes down, we spend of last night and half of day with no power... sad Also I have to said that walking to Santacruz for me was so fun but is not for everybody really challenging, and maybe is worth it no many things to do there, stay on lake and have fun! Get all you need from pana or where you staying, reserve the boat you get a better price talk to santos or Paola... anyway I like the house maybe I come back

Peaceful

We loved our stay here. It is a charming rustic cabin on the lake outside of Santa Cruz. Santos is so helpful and the managers are great communicators making everything go smoothly. There are a couple restaraunts in Paxanax and you can walk to Santa Crux, but asking Santos to help get a boat is the best way to get around. It is really worth getting away from the bustle of Panajachel or San Pedro. Nt he nights are generally peaceful and the morning coffee on the patio is a dream when the volcanoes and lake are at their best. We loved he service and getaway.

Lake Atitlan at its best!

We loved our stay at this lakefront home on beautiful Lake Atitlan! The views are expansive and unrestricted, best enjoyed from the hammock and outdoor dining table. It was the perfect way to unwind after some long days of travel. We enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen while our kids played games left for guests to use. The home is tasteful and relaxed, very comfortable, and the owner provides detailed information about what to do at the lake. The caretaker was wonderful and made us feel welcomed and safe. This was my favorite stop on our entire vacation. Very highly recommended!

This listing needs updating.

We spent 11 days at Casa Paxanax in January 2013. The things we loved about this place were the fantastic lake and volcano views, the garden area, the patio, the roomy kitchen/dining/living room space, the upstairs master bedroom with private balcony and a helpful caretaker. However, there are several things on this listing and in the owner’s information sheet that did not line up with what we found when we arrived. 1) The wireless internet is not "wireless" in the true sense of the word. You must have a USB port on your electronic device to access it. A tablet device without a port will not work. 2) There was no barbeque grill 3) There is an extra charge if you use the house power boat. This was mentioned, but it was in quetzales, which wouldn’t mean much to most people. We found it much cheaper to travel by the public lancha. 4) Because the level of lake has risen so much, much of the gardens are under water. Do not expect to supply your table with fresh fruit from the garden. 5) There seems to be some debate about the quality of the lake water and contamination. We did not swim or get in the water, not wanting to become sick at this point in our travels. Thus swimming, snorkeling, and the rest of the water sport activities became null and void. 6) Many of the activities listed are not available at the house or in the bay, but at other locations around the lake. The VRBO site makes it sound like it's a resort area with all these things available right there. Other items of note: 1) The onsite caretaker doesn't speak any English, only Spanish. Problem resolution through the property manager by phone didn't work out very well for us, so through our broken Spanish, his broken English and sign language we managed to figure out most of the issues, but it was frustrating. 2) The living room area could use a couch. The photos show bean bags and that’s all there is besides a twin bed and a table with 1 chair. For younger people this may not be a problem. 3) Due to the high lake level there are no beaches and instead of the pleasant beach walk to the Santa Cruz dock area we were expecting, we were met with rocky, steep trails that the person who planned the trip could not walk on. Getting to the local restaurants on foot was not possible. In spite of the above, we still enjoyed our time at Casa Paxanax visiting the villages and riding the lanchas into Pana to shop for groceries, etc. The whole package was quite a cultural experience.
