This property was beautiful. The location was ideal and so easy to visit the little towns around the lake by public boat. You could make it anywhere around the laje in under 10 minutes. The staff was amazing, food was great, the views were stunning. Everything had so much character. We had the best time and we'd love to go back.

The setting and ambiance is unmatched. Unbelievably beautiful, super friendly people and good vibes all around. Stairs are a fun challenge. Views are unreal. Above and beyond service. Some notes- food not great and expensive. I recommend eating out as much as possible. I wish there were a Whatsapp number I could ask small questions. The economy rooms are great but should be noted that the website says they get a private patio/balcony and that is not true. It does have a beautiful window facing the lake tho. And there are plenty of common areas with amazing views. Overall, incredibly amazing experience. Stay a while and really soak it in.

We loved Casa Del Mundo but wouldn’t recommend to stay there. Would have rather we did a day trip. At the time of booking I just booked whatever was available, and it turns out we booked an “Economy basic” room by accident which was an extremely small room and forced to use a shared bathroom. I wish this was made more obvious to us before arrival as we were very disappointed. Overall the property is very beautiful but the shared bathroom detracted from our stay and we were tired of the limited menu from the restaurant by day 2. Still love the hotel regardless!

The most beautiful place! The landscaping is absolutely stunning and there are so many little private nooks to relax. The food is a bit bland and overpriced, we walked to Jaibalito for better ans cheaper food.

This is hotel is more breathtaking than the pictures show. The views from the rooms and common spaces are beautiful. Everything is designed in a way that makes you feel like you're connected to nature and the local culture. Every meal we had was exceptional and we enjoyed plenty of beer and wine and cocktails! I had more pina coladas than ever before! We had a small single room with a private bathroom and it was great for us (two young femmes). If you are a bigger person, I'd recommend a room with a queen bed and more space to maneuver. The staff were kind and let me practice my Spanish. Some staff only speak basic English so be patient and brush up on your intro Spanish. Things I wish I knew/planned for ahead of time: there are steep stairs! Every trip to the restaurant, bathroom, or our room meant climbing dozens of steep steps. There is no room or lakeside service, so you have to go retrieve drinks and food yourself. Be ready to use your legs! The rooms don't have fans. On muggy days it can get humid and warm in the rooms. Bring a small fan or travel when it's windy or cloudy to avoid being really hot. The wifi can be weak at times, so buy an esim with double the data. I am so glad we went and will remember this stay for the rest of my life!

Beautiful hotel in the mountain

Pictures don’t do it justice. Situated in the side of the mountain, lots of steps so if you have mobility issues I would not recommend. Seating areas throughout the hotel which was great for us to catch the lightening storm. I wound up sick and wish I had felt better to do more exploring. Love that there is a path from the hotel to walk to Santa Cruz and jaibalitos. If you’re planning on any water activities morning is the best time.
