    Loved our stay here! When no we arrived we booked for 1 night and the lovely, charming owner said “most people stay 2-3… we stayed for three. The bed is so comfy and our room had a great view of the lake. The lake is great for a dip after a hot day exploring.

    I loved everything about this place and wished I would have stayed for weeks! The room was big, clean, comfortable with an amazing view on the lake, especially at sunset and sunrise, when you can see a lot of birds (among which green parakeets, red-lored parrots, etc.). There were mosquito nets, but I didn’t see a single mosquito throughout my 3-night stay. The AC was quiet and worked perfectly, and the room had great Wi-Fi I used for a work video call. The room comes with a balcony, where you can find a table, chairs and hammock. There is also a kitchen you can use in common spaces. Umberto is an amazing host! He is very kind and helped me throughout my stay, even offering to lend me money when I had trouble withdrawing from the ATM, which I really appreciated in this stressful situation. He arranged my tours to Yaxha and Tikal, and the hotel’s location is very convenient, right where shuttle and colectivos stop and just in front of El Remate’s only ATM. It is a 5 min walk from the laundry shop, and within a 5 min walk from many great cafes and restaurants (Cahui, La Puerto, Casa de Don David, Doña Mari, etc.). I hesitated between staying in El Remate or Flores, but now that I have been to both, I am happy that I got to experience a quieter side of Lake Petén, with better sunset views and amazing restaurants, closer to Tikal and Yaxha archaeological sites. Highly recommended!

    The kitchen could have more utensils and more tables. When the hotel is full it's difficult to be all together. Mattresses are a little bit weird but it's ok.

    Location is nice. Room is big. Cool staff. Hot shower. You can dry your clothes outside and each room has its own table/chair and hammock. Cleaning is done everyday. We could check-in earlier (the room was ready)

    We really enjoyed it here, the village is so nice and probably the best and quietest we've seen in guatemala. The host was friendly and we booked a tikal tour and then onward shuttle through him both of which were really good. The room was good, hot water and thick walls so we slept well!

    We arrived 3 people less than prenoted and asked politely if we by any chance could cancel one of our rooms. The host agreed to try to sell the room and if he finds guests, refund us the money. The room was not sold but we also didnt get informed that we should/could use the extra room anyways. We would have appreciated better communication since we had exchanged numbers since the beginning.

    Great location, beautiful large rooms, great price/value, parking in a safe place, owner helps organize many things, super starting point to go to Tikal! 100% recommended!

    That don't have laundry service so we had to walk a couple of blocks to the laundry place. It's not a bad thing at all but just want the people to know

    The room, the bathroom, the shower and the bed were very big, comfortable and clean. The location is excellent and the staff very kind. Every room has a porch with garden furniture and a hammock. The lake is very close and you get the lake view and sunset from the premises. We were able to see it from our room There is a huge kitchen very well equipped that you can use. We really loved this place

    Lots of mosquitos! The lake/dock isn't as close as the pictures made it seem and swimming is at your own risk as crocodiles live in the area...

    Great location in the center of the small town. Everything was within short walking distance. Long size bed, large window, nice TV, large clean bathroom, and hammock on the front patio area. No complaints! Shared kitchen area was adequate for preparing simple meals.

    I would only reduce price per night a bit to compensate for various problems: there was a leak in the bathroom sink so I constantly had to close/open the tap from under the sink, there was 3-4 spots of gekko shit on each bed, and those neon light bulbs everybody uses but are horrible. No carpets on the floor so I nearly fell because my feet were wet and floor super slipery, and only one smal garbadge in the bathroom, none in the room.

    Very Clean and close to everything. Nice big shared kitchen. There was a comode and some hooks to hang/store clothes, that is seldom found in Guatemala hotels.

    The owner/manager Umberto was so kind and helpful. We were able to organise all our shuttles and tours with him. Great central but quiet location on the lake, next to local swimming spot. Kitchen and filtered water supplied. Nice and close to Tikal so you don’t have to wake up as early as those coming from Flores. Good aircon, had excellent sleeps despite the heatwave.

    The owner was amazing, even waiting for us when we arrived very late for checkin. He helped arrange transportation to/from Tikal. It is dog friendly & he didn’t mind that we left the dogs in our room while we went to Tikal. The room was clean & comfortable. The grounds were amazing & well kept with beautiful plants. Hands down would come back to stay again for longer!

    Very pleased we stayed in El Remate as it was close to Tikal and the border with Belize. The hotel / our room had lake views and we swan from the dock close by. The room was very clean , we had the end room so had the best view. Nice balcony and close to shops and restaurants . Friendly owner , Humberto, organised a great tour to Tikal ( 5:30 am pickup ) with a group.
