Highlights

Lake Atitlan - Mayan Home Stays has initiated a homestay program within the community to contribute to the local societies surrounding Lake Atitlan, while also offering an authentic experience of residing with a Mayan family. This allows you to witness and immerse yourself in their cultural practices and traditions.
Meals will be cooked by the family matriarch, providing you with the chance to partake in both breakfast and dinner with the household members (included in the cost). Your accommodation will be in a secure area where the community members reside.
The program has been successfully connecting visitors with local families for 12 years, fostering cultural exchange. As considerate visitors, it’s important to be cognizant of the local customs and to conduct ourselves with respect while staying with the host family and within the community.
