Luxurious 3 Bedroom Lakefront Villa With Heated Pool and Hot Tub

Stay in one of the finest and most luxurious villas on Lake Atitlan! Private and secluded waterfront property with a spectacular view of three volcanoes but just a ten minute walk from the bustling village of San Marcos. Amenities include the only heated pool available on the rental market along with lush botanical gardens, a spacious waterfront deck and private pier with swimming ladder, large hot tub with adjacent outdoor fireplace and lounging area, multiple terraces, and three floors of spacious living verandas overlooking the Lake and spanning the length of the house. The house itself is very well appointed with fine Guatemalan antiques and outstanding examples of local ceramics, textiles, crafts, and an exceptional art collection throughout including works by Palma, Guillermo, and Maldonado amoung others. Plush towels abound and high thread count bedsheets complement high quality mattresses, multiple pillows, and fine bed linens. Wifi throughout the house and extending to patio and pool areas, satellite DIRECTV with U.S. stations, and a fully equipped kitchen ( and we mean "fully" including spices and many condiments), and twice weekly house cleaning with optional laundry services available round out the house amenities. AND we offer full CONCIERGE SERVICES- transfers to and from the airport in Guatemala City or Antigua and the house, chef services, food shopping services, on site massage, on site language lessons, private daily boat rental, and the booking of a variety of activities around the Lake ranging from volcano climbing to horse back riding to paragliding. We may not be the cheapest alternative around the Lake but there is a reason for that. This house has everything and is designed for relaxation and comfort. Why not the best?
Note: As per VRBO policy we here disclose that we have four exterior security cameras on our property. Camera number 1 is attached to the exterior of the house pointing outward and covering the primary exterior walkways and stairs approaching the primary entry. Camera number 2 is attached to the ceiling of the exterior first floor balcony and covers thirty feet of the exterior balcony and exterior balcony railing. Camera number 3 is attached in the same place with the same coverage for the second floor exterior balcony. Camera number 4 is mounted under the ceiling of the exterior third floor balcony and covers the top of the exterior staircase ( the only access to the third floor ). There are no interior cameras and none of the exterior security cameras have any views of interior spaces. Cameras are there for your security and safety!

Perfect for group trips!
Great home base for our group of 6 friends who were looking to explore, unwind and have a good time together! We stayed for 5 days and found ourselves choosing to stay on the property cooking together in the well-equipped kitchen our lounging by the pool. I personally enjoyed the access to kayaks to go on morning trips around the Lake. Really appreciated the attention from the property manager and on-site concierges—they were excellent! Highly recommend this place if you’re coming in a large group, there’s fun around for everyone of all ages .

5 Star review!
5 Star review! The villa on Lake Atitlan is in an excellent location, just minutes from the small bohemian town of San Marcos La Laguna. Although this was our second visit to the Lake and the Villa Casa Blanco, we still discovered hidden gems on the property and the lake. The property grounds are spectacular! The landscape includes, but is not limited to Palms, Amaryllis, Heliconias, Bougainvillea, Bananas, Mangos, and numerous other blooming vines. The kitchen and bathrooms are fully stocked leaving nothing overlooked. The pictures on the site of the property, although beautiful, do not come close to showing how fabulous the villa is in person! What more could a guest want. Our stay was made incredible by both the owner and concierge! Booking and interactions with the homeowner Blaine were easy. Aaron, the lake concierge went above and beyond to help all the excursions around the lake. The onsite staff (Eliseo, Edgar) were very attentive to our needs from going into town and getting medication for stomach illness we had, to arranging rides to town, getting Kayaks out for us, and communicating the schedules of the villa support staff. Highly recommend the villa for a tropical retreat.

Family Christmas at Lake Atitlan
Our stay was nothing short of AMAZING! The house is a dream - beautiful, spacious, and clean! Booking was easy and the homeowner was very timely in responding to questions...I had a lot. He also had a great contact for all our transportation in Guatemala, Ruben was outstanding! Aaron, the concierge went above and beyond to help arrange excursions, chef, and even worked on Christmas day to find a contact for wave runners to be delivered to our dock! Aaron even called after our departure from the house to confirm we connected with our ride back to Antigua. The chef was incredible, I highly recommend utilizing the chef not only for great food, but to add to the relaxation! I woke in the morning to the smell of coffee and breakfast being prepared. The onsite staff (Eliseo, Edgar, Jose) were very attentive to our needs, warming hot tub, starting fires, arranging rides to town, and communicating their schedules. The grounds are impeccable! The walk to town is short, but hilly, a great morning workout. It was easy to get to town for groceries, great restaurants, and the kids loved the bakery and gelato. Experiencing Christmas in San Marcos was a thrill from mass at the Catholic church to the fireworks around lake. It was indescribable! We always felt safe and well taken care of! We will definitely visit again, I want to bring everyone I know and share this whole experience and exquisite property!

Blaine's house is absolute oasis. We loved hanging out in the heated pool and hot tub and Aaron helped arrange for private transfers all around Lake Atitlan which we loved exploring. San Marcos is the closest town and has limited restaurants/shopping. I would recommend stocking up on groceries in Panajachel before coming to the house... would love to get to stay here again!

Found a scorpion in our bed!
I wrote a long review, but it exceeded the character limit so I will keep it brief. The views were beautiful, the grounds were amazing, and Eliseo was very kind. There was tension before we arrived due to poor communication with Blaine and the house manager, Aaron. The price to arrange things, like transportation, was about double the cost of booking it ourselves, so I did it myself. We did hire a chef through Aaron, but they had to cancel the day before we arrived. This was our #1 most important thing when booking, and Aaron and Blaine wouldn't help us find a solution. We had to rearrange a new chef ourselves. Once we got to the house we found a literal scorpion in our bed! The house was dusty and the cleaning lady never came. The staff would come in and out of the house whenever they pleased, sometimes taking over areas themselves making them unusable to us. The primary bedroom bed was so squeaky that it would squeak if you took a deep breath, traffic noise was quite loud - No sleeping in! There were planned power outages that the staff didn't tell us about, but luckily our chef did. I’m used to traveling in a mix of places from luxury to offgrid backpacking. I understand in a place like Guatemala you are not going to have every amenity at your fingertips. There are going to be power outages, noise, bugs, etc. but being treated rudely by the staff and property manager is where I draw the line. Communication was poor and the house was dirty. I would not stay again.

The property was amazing!! The views, the house, the lake, and the temperatures along with the Guatemalan people make for a trip to die for. I will definitely be back someday. My kids loved it as well. The most beautiful lake you will ever see surrounded by three volcanoes and 7 Mayan villages accessible by public boat on a daily basis.

Beautiful Getaway
Blaine's place was absolutely stunning! The house was decorated with antiques and artwork from Guatemala. The beds were comfortable and the view was spectacular! The staff working at the property were friendly and very helpful, so was the property manager. It was a quick 10 minute walk to town. We really enjoyed our meal at the Restaurant Fe in town. There were a couple of downsides to this property. The traffic on the road behind the house was quite loud at times in the master suite. The levels of this house are only connected by outside walkways. We all felt very safe, but the only way for my children to lock their rooms at night was to use the room key. Which also meant to get out of their room in the morning, they needed to use the key. This could pose more of a difficulty if you have small children. Overall, it was a wonderful stay! Thank you!

Peace of mind
We really enjoyed the property. The view of the Lake is spectacular & breathtakingly beautiful. Well worth the money. Saying this there are a few things you should know which are of nature. First dogs bark on and off all night, the birds are loud and are chirping at 4:30, 5am, and then around 6am you will hear work trucks loudly going past the property near the master bedroom which is on the top floor near the road. Also, people let these firecrackers go randomly without fire, they are loud and quite obnoxious (not owners fault) .If you can get past this, worth the money and view... Just giving a head's up.. All in all we had a lovely stay visiting our daughter in the peace corps... thank you

This property was absolutely beautiful! It's tucked in a little cove and just walking up from the boat you are greeted with beautiful lush gardens and colorful flowers. The pool view was amazing! I literally took the same picture every morning at breakfast because the view was breathtaking! The kids were in the pool as soon as they woke up every morning. The decor in the house is authentic and beautiful. Beds super comfortable! We had Carmen and Veronica cook authentic meals for us which were absolutely amazing. They are both so kind and have beautiful souls. The house guys were amazing for helping us get boat transportation and give us good ideas on activities we should do. They were always available to answer any questions we had. The boat transportation was always the same guy and he was great with us and gave us lots of good information. The local dogs were friendly and sweet. You could hear dogs barking in the neighboring properties but it wasn't a problem. The walk from the property to town was about 10 min and it was a good workout but not a big deal at all. You could also take the tuk tuk if available. We had fires in the fireplace every night and soaked in the hot tub It was a perfect stay. My only suggestion would possibly to have some fans available. At night it sometimes was hot. We will definitely come back for a visit but just relax at the house most of the time because it has everything you could want in a relaxing vacation!

Repeat Trip is a Must!
Perfect in all ways! All the amenities we needed, including very comfortable beds, stocked kitchen, beautiful views, proximity to fun San Marcos and all the concierge services you would need for a complete vacation. The whole staff was especially helpful for navigating a foreign country. Aaron the property manager was most responsive via WhatsApp. He arranged all of our transportation needs and answered any question we had. We were able to have a private boat take us wherever we needed which was nice to avoid the boat taxi procedure. Edgar, who lives on the property with his adorable family was over-the-top helpful and most friendly and spoke English very well. He helped us arrange our own driver for the Tuk Tuk ride to San Marcos for dinner. He made excellent restaurant recommendations, and we even met the owner of Restaurant Fe who quickly became my husband's new best friend! We utilized Carmen, an amazing chef for breakfast on 2 of the mornings. She prepared delicious traditional choices and was very timely according to our needs. My only regret is that we didn't stay long enough.

By far exceeded expectations in every way, and expectations were very high given the photos and comments from other guests! Hosts were always friendly and helpful, and Aaron patiently answered my questions and helped arrange for everything we needed from the time prior to the trip through the end (and even beyond the trip when he arranged transportation from our stay in Antigua to the airport in Guatemala City). The house on the property were beyond spacious and gorgeous and the home-cooked meals that we arranged for were delicious and made things so convenient.

Wow it's such a beautiful place.
We drove to the property and the roads are very winding. If you're driving use a 4-wheel drive. We rented a minivan. Automatic. The brakes heated up on the way and we had to stop to let them cool. Also, travel during daylight. The roads can get pretty steep. When we got there Edgar was on the property to show us around. The view was amazing. We walked to town the first day ( took 10-15 minutes) and tuk tuked back. We took a boat the next day to Panajachel and it was bumpy. Both ways. :) The town of San Marcos was lovely. We ate at Moonfish for lunch and then on our last evening we lost power till the morning ( luckily we made an early dinner and ate on the balcony by candlelight) so we went to Moonfish for breakfast. They must have gas power. It was nice. The hot coffee was delicious. When we got back from breakfast the power came back on. Sadly we were on our way out to Antigua. So to summarize: Several dogs visited during our stay. Totally friendly and my teenagers loved it. House is amazing! Plenty of room for our party of 7. Friendly staff. Overall can't wait to go back! Thank you for sharing your home.
