My stay at Kaalpul Atitlan Eco Hotel and Spa offered a stunning setting but had significant drawbacks. The rooms were beautiful, though issues with cleanliness and maintenance detracted from the experience. Additionally, the lack of reliable Wi-Fi was inconvenient for my needs. Overall, the charming animals on-site made for enjoyable moments, but I left feeling frustrated with the stay. 🏞️🐾

The panoramic room had a gorgeous view, but it wasn't clean and leaked during the rain. The smaller Maya room I was moved to also felt dirty and was harder to access.

My stay at Kaalpul Atitlan Eco Hotel and Spa had its ups and downs. The panoramic room I originally booked had cleanliness issues and a leaking roof, prompting a move to the smaller Maya room, which was less ideal. However, the staff, especially Jose, were accommodating, and I loved the interactions with the adorable resident pets - a cat named Diana and two dogs, Gina and Gucci.

My stay at Kaalpul Atitlan Eco Hotel was mixed. While the stunning scenery left a lasting impression, poor maintenance and service issues really dampened the experience. I encountered cleanliness problems in my room and had to deal with an unexpected room change due to a leaking roof. Despite these issues, the friendly animals onsite and some staff members made the stay somewhat enjoyable.
