Fuego Atitlan Eco-Hotel

We had requested 2 nights and they said something had happened with the system and other people had requested the same room so we could only stay at the hotel for 1 night. They gave us the money back from that 1 night but still it was kind of annoying

The view from the yurt was quite an experience. It was also pretty cold at night, hot during the day if you don't use the shades/sides properly--or even if you do. The structure itself was pretty makeshift, and was not airtight/bug tight like a traditional yurt would be. Also the bed was like a punishment. It could really use a foam pad on top and at least one more of the sad, flat pillows per person. Why skimp on those? This experience is spartan enough. Also: bring earplugs and perhaps a noise machine, the barking dogs at night are pretty disruptive. The property did have hot water in the showers, near the pit toilets (only 2 toilets for a place with 12 person capacity). These were a healthy distance from all of the accommodations and you'll need to light your own way after 10pm. Alice, the host was very pleasant and made sure we had a nice, cheap breakfast provided each day. There is also a functional kitchen on site and massages on offer. If you have any mobility issues, this place is a real struggle. At least 120 steps from the street to our yurt, with a six story climb. Property is likely muddy during rainy season, there was very little by way of erosion control at present. It is a newer property, so I'm hopeful they'll continue to improve. Quick tuk-tuk ride to "downtown" and there is parking on site. Very little parking in San Marcos though, other than the big church.

Beautiful spot for our stay in San Marcos, the facilities were great, fantastic night sleep in a very big comfortable bed and service from the whole team was excellent. Would highly recommend.

Lovely staff. Amazing view of the rooms. Wasn’t aware that the toilet and showers are shared.

It is an excellent hotel, a spa and massage area would be good.
