Above Lake Atitlan in Santa Catarina Palopo, Casa Palopo occupies a steep hillside facing the water and the volcanoes beyond. The hotel's rooms and suites layer vivid Guatemalan textiles, antiques, artwork and carved timber into a series of individually styled interiors, while the private villa adds its own pool and more secluded accommodation. Palopo 6.8 and Kinnik draw on Guatemalan ingredients and the lake setting, with terraces used for dining and drinks. Gardens, tiled stairways and small courtyards connect the different levels of the property, repeatedly opening onto the blue lake and the volcanic silhouettes across the water.
