Holiday rentals with lake access in Sololá

This Airbnb is what Airbnb was supposed to be 10 years ago. It’s not just another property from a manager that you never see. Jean was very warm welcoming and welcomed us herself on our arrival. She was very proactive by giving us some tips from what to do, where to go or eat. She answered really quickly and helped us organized some massage sessions. The property is as described. The heated pool, the private beach and dock. Be aware that there are a lot of steps in the property and that arriving there from San Marcos may be a little difficult because of the road. But in my opinion those aren’t a problem after you see how beautiful it is there. I hope I can return one day

This is by far the best Airbnb I have ever stayed at. I’ve traveled to a lot of Airbnb’s in many different countries and none compare to this. Finding this place is surely an adventure but once you are there, you don’t want to leave! I can’t say enough good things about the chefs that will cook you every meal. We had them do all the shopping for our meals along with other items we wanted such as water and beer. The housekeeper services that help coordinate private boat rides to other villages, keeping the place clean, or even small things such as turning on the hot tub while we are away are truly incredible perks of this place. The property and views are just amazing and I can’t wait to come back here for my next stay!

I still can't believe how wonderful this place was. If you're looking for peace and quiet in a beautiful setting, this is it. Heavenly. Fast Internet, great host, convenient, clean. Everything about it was perfect.

Highly recommend to anyone looking for a peaceful and private place in Santa Cruz. The view is stunning, the house is breezy and full of natural light, and the garden is an oasis. We worked remotely from the loft above with a view of the lake, and the windows letting in the breeze… the Starlink internet was seamless. Town/dock was 5-10 min walk from the house, and town/ATM was a short tuk tuk ride up the hill. Miguel was extremely helpful, always readily available, communicative and with a great attitude. He met us at the dock in Panajachel with a pre booked private transport and helped bring our bags up to the house. We also booked the private chef experience with Manuela and she was amazing… so sweet, punctual, and made us healthy, tasty lunches to enjoy while we worked. She even made us a refreshing drink with a cucumber from her garden, and set the table for us outside to we could eat while enjoying the nice weather. We learned a lot from chatting with her! Lovely people & stay!

This home was incredible! Not only is the location fantastic - private, right on the lake, easy to drive to, walkable to San Marcos - but it is decorated, furnished and staffed to feel like a luxury getaway. I would recommend taking the staff up on the option to have a chef and massage therapist come during your stay. I cannot say enough good things about this place. It was the perfect getaway for our family and we look forward to returning.

The Airbnb is absolutely gorgeous, it comfortably slept all of us in the 4 large bedrooms. The bathrooms showers had great pressure and heat. Rudy and Maria were fantastic and Attentive to all our needs and made the best meals. The pool was definitely needed and we had a great time enjoying all the lake had to offer. Highly recommend.

Spacious home with incredible views, we all felt at home and comfortable. While slightly out of the tourist core, it was only a short tuk tuk away or a nice stroll into the busy area. Highly recommend.

Little paradise in Santa Cruz, the garden is just something else - it is so magic to wake up every morning with plenty of hummingbirds flying around. The house has everything you need and a lot of privacy, even when Andres (the gardener) is around. Joanne instructions were super helpful and we felt at home, would definitely come back!!

The service was impeccable, we had a setback and they were 100% open and flexible to help us, their service was always prompt, empathetic and very kind; finally the place is super comfortable, very well equipped and close to everything in Panajachel.

I agree with all the previous reviews - can’t recommend Griselda and Antonio’s place high enough. San Pedro is loud ! And this is an oasis of calm yet walkable to the town and language school(s) we will defo be back.

Beautiful apartment in Panajachel, large and clean. The kitchen with many accessories. Very comfortable and well-located apartment. Brenda very available all the time.

Loved this place and would stay here again!

The only regret we had with my family was not staying there for longer. Omar and his helper were amazing at helping us get anything we needed. The apartment was so beautiful, the view was amazing as well. It is a great place to relax and have fun at the same time. The only thing that we had a problem with and it is NOT the host’s fault was that we didn’t have power until like 7pm and I believe the whole town didn’t have power either. But it was a great time overall. we only stayed one night and we already think that one WEEK won’t be enough to be there either!!! They helped us find a reasonable boat ride that even included a tour at San Juan La Laguna that was so fun! I cannot wait to go back to this place.

This was a great place to explore Pana in a quiet corner still on one of the main streets, being close to the supermarkets and a short walk away from the lake. We really enjoyed using it as our base during our trip, with the host very flexible and responsive.

The most tranquil peaceful pad with all you need, friendly people and busy local town a stone throw away. Boat rides easily accessible and frequent making it easy to reach other towns to explore. Tranquil beach walk from the house to the village. A little veranda and lawn to take in the lake and volcano. Views will be missed. 5 stars. 😊

We really enjoyed our stay at Rocio's place, the views are absolutely stunning! It was so peaceful and we enjoyed the fireplace upstairs. Would love to return one day!

100% recommended. The house has an incredible view and is very comfortable. It is a short walk from the pier where you can enjoy the lake. We'll definitely go again with my friends.

Very nice stay. Gonna helped a lot with extra information about the area.

a very nice and quiet place. with many public spaces and quiet had an amazing view when you walk out of the cabin. the lack of outside lights during the night especially during check-in made it somewhat difficult. was a little dusty and with cobwebs. the use of the facilities was somewhat complicated in jacuzzi it was empty and turned off in sauna the same and the equipment to make kayac was all under key every time I think q not making a reservation directly with the accommodation it feels like we are not so important to give us that part of the service.

Galileo is so caring and kind. He help us to take the luggage from the private deck to the house, and when we check out, he helped us to get on a boat to our next destination. He is very caring for his guests. For the property, one thing to note is that the shower head on the top is out of service, so you can only use the handheld shower head. But everything else is super good. Santa Cruz is a quiet town if you want to get dinner you have to reserve beforehand with the local restaurant.

Magical Airbnb perfect for retreating from the world and being in nature. The scenery and natural sounds around it are very special. We stayed there for 25 days and had an amazing time. There’s a small harbor 5 minutes from the cabin where you can take a boat taxi to explore the lake and also go for a swim which we enjoyed multiple times. You should know that this cabin is in the middle of nature so you can expect little insects and flies, which for us wasn’t a problem. Pat’s communication was great and Marcelo, who’s the guardian of the house was very helpful and made us feel at home. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to dive

Great place! Absolutely loved the direct access to the water. The house is very cute and exactly like the photos. The steps to get to San Marcos can be a lot, but it was doable and really worth it in the end!

Second stay here- it won’t be my last. Very grateful for such amazing hosts.

Casa Jucanya is a lovely space located on a larger property with multiple villas and a chalet structure. It is right across from the lake, and you can see the lake from the kitchen and living area windows. There is a nice swimming area nearby. However it is not as close to the main walking area in Panajachel. There is a river that splits Panajachel into two areas, and this is on the other side of the river. It is about a 10-20 minute walk during daylight, but the path is not lit at night and the path may also not be there at night. Anyway, a tuk tuk taxi ride is about 10 Quetzales one way. This was not an issue for us because we had rented a car. We were also traveling with my mom and our son, so this was more of a family vacation and we didn’t care to be as close to the main walking and shopping area. Staff is very helpful and nice, the house is very clean and well equipped. They are somewhat meticulous with a check in and check out checklist. We enjoyed our stay and will stay aga
