Service is widely praised as friendly and thoughtful—saving late dinners, packing early breakfasts, and arranging tours—yet there are occasional lapses in follow up. Food is frequently described as delicious and generous, though some note a fixed daily menu and, more rarely, an average dish or a cleanliness lapse. The setting feels peaceful but somewhat remote; a few mention limited nearby options and transport inconveniences, while others highlight reasonable access for day trips to Tikal and Flores. Expect a calming nature retreat with attentive hospitality and mostly excellent food.

El hotel es muy lindo y acogedor, lo que mas se destaca es su playa privada que permite disfrutar al 100% del lago, y la calidad de la cena. Punto a mejorar es la hermeticidad de las cabañas que dejaba ingresar zancudos.

This hotel has exceeded all my expectations. It is truly a hidden gem. The prices are reasonable, the rooms are clean with all necessary modern amenities, yet seem set in the past with beautiful views from private patios overlooking the picturesque lake and rainforest. I've stayed in a luxury suite comparable to any 5 star hotel in the U.S., almost too nice for me yet still affordable, and I moved to a smaller bungalow with a nice view, more reminiscent of rooms I stayed in years ago, as I've extended my stay for a couple more weeks. The food is incredible and even plated and prepared as though by top restauranteurs in the city. The management and staff are very friendy and the grounds are well groomed yet retain the natural beauty of the Peten rainforest. It will be difficult to leave this paradise.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had an amazing experience. The amenities were fantastic, exceeding all my expectations. The photos online don’t do justice to how beautiful and well-maintained the property is. The food was delicious, and the bartender was exceptional, crafting some of the best drinks I’ve ever had. One of the highlights of our stay was the thoughtful gesture of packing our breakfast to go since we had an early departure for a trip to Tikal. This level of service truly sets this hotel apart. I would absolutely recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for a memorable stay. A special shoutout to Lola

Hotel Gringo Perdido was a truly great place to stay during our 3-day trip to Tikal and other historical sites. The asphalted road leading to the entrance of HGP is probably the best road in the area as it was recently poured and a second pouring is scheduled soon. The HGP staff were very welcoming and informed us of the complimentary breakfast as well as the complimentary dinner. All the meals we had were delicious, well prepared and presented, and very healthy. We stayed in Suite # 1 and it was very clean, however, there was no television for late night or early morning news viewing. But we did not come this way to watch television so it was not a deal breaker. The pool, the lake, and the beautiful view of the Peten Itza Lake was breathtaking. The suite had two heavy duty hammocks which were very comfortable. The owners created this hotel with everything in mind. I would definitely recommend Hotel Gringo Perdido to be the location of your visit.

Gringo Perdido is a true slice of paradise—a perfect escape for both relaxation and adventure. Nestled amid the lush beauty of the Mayan landscape, on a serene lake, the resort is the perfect home away from home. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the meals are always fresh and delicious. The amazing staff (including the furry friends!) make this place even more special. This is a place we continue to day dream about and love to return to. Cannot recommend this place enough!

Overall there is good value for money, however, there were a few unpleasant inconveniences. First was that our room supposedly had a private dock but people kept passing by and even staying in our area so it didn't feel too private, even once when coming out of the shower I found people in front of the door to the dock, even with the drapes closed it felt very invasive. The other one was that there was no hot water at the shower and they said they would send someone from the staff to fix it but no one showed up. The third one was that on one breakfast we had a hair in our food, so they replaced the whole plate and then after asking for a coffee they served it on a mug that didn't look clean. Besides from that the experience was good, the staff was mostly friendly, the food was tasty, the ambiance was relaxing and joyful, and the facilities are great.

Het is een hotel wat een heerlijke rust uitstraalt, er draait een zacht muziekje, het eten is lekker en de staff doet zijn best het je naar de zin te maken. Het enige nadeel is echt de waterdruk van de douche, op een gegeven moment kwamen er alleen nog wat druppels uit terwijl er aan water op deze plek geen gebrek is. Ook heb ik niets meegekregen van de yogalessen maar dat was niet de reden om hierheen te gaan.

It was a very beautiful property. Room looked nice but was sooo hot. I checked a few times to make sure there was AC before I booked. There was one but really didn’t work. The food was ok it wasn’t great. When you choose to add the meals on when you book you don’t get to order, they have it already chosen what you will eat. I will say they do ask you at book in if you have any allergies but I would prefer to pick myself. For me the food is a big part of the experience

Hotel Gringo Perdido is an absolute gem, it is a beautiful yet small hotel right in Lake Peten built within nature. It was so serene & peaceful, absolutely silent from 9pm, and I had the most unbelievable sleeps of my life. The only downsides are that you are very remotely located far from Flores where there are restaurants & boats to take for cheap around the area are and to get there is very inconvenient, either taxi for $50 each way or colectivo/bus with locals which either shows up every 10min or every hour or so, it’s not clear which it will be. Also limited dining at the hotel, only one option for breakfast & dinner each day…a little challenging if you follow a particular diet. But despite these inconveniences I would absolutely stay here again & recommend to friends, the setting more than makes up for things. Also just keep in mind there isn’t a whole lot “to do” here besides relax.

We loved everything about this small boutique resort hotel. Excellent food is served in the restaurant, great service from the staff. My only complaint is that Antonella the cute black kitty cat is way too trusting and follows the guests into the room --- someone is going to kidnap her and take her home (as a souvenir, hahaha). The property has a variety of room types and prices vary enough so it's affordable for the hippies and backpackers with children, yet there are some private suites and bungalows for a more upscale experience. The saddest part about coming here is having to leave this place!

Overall there is good value for money, however, there were a few unpleasant inconveniences. First was that our room supposedly had a private dock but people kept passing by and even staying in our area so it didn't feel too private, even once when coming out of the shower I found people in front of the door to the dock, even with the drapes closed it felt very invasive. The other one was that there was no hot water at the shower and they said they would send someone from the staff to fix it but no one showed up. The third one was that on one breakfast we had a hair in our food, so they replaced the whole plate and then after asking for a coffee they served it on a mug that didn't look clean. Besides from that the experience was good, the staff was mostly friendly, the food was tasty, the ambiance was relaxing and joyful, and the facilities are great.

The Gringo Perdido will go down as one of my all-time favorite places to stay. It is in a beautiful location, has helpful/friendly staff, provides amazing food, great recreation activities, and some of the best coffee I have ever had (and it is included). I cannot say enough good things about the Gringo Perdido and cannot wait to bring more people here in the future!

This hotel has exceeded all my expectations. It is truly a hidden gem. The prices are reasonable, the rooms are clean with all necessary modern amenities, yet seem set in the past with beautiful views from private patios overlooking the picturesque lake and rainforest. I've stayed in a luxury suite comparable to any 5 star hotel in the U.S., almost too nice for me yet still affordable, and I moved to a smaller bungalow with a nice view, more reminiscent of rooms I stayed in years ago, as I've extended my stay for a couple more weeks. The food is incredible and even plated and prepared as though by top restauranteurs in the city. The management and staff are very friendy and the grounds are well groomed yet retain the natural beauty of the Peten rainforest. It will be difficult to leave this paradise.

I recently stayed at this hotel and had an amazing experience. The amenities were fantastic, exceeding all my expectations. The photos online don’t do justice to how beautiful and well-maintained the property is. The food was delicious, and the bartender was exceptional, crafting some of the best drinks I’ve ever had. One of the highlights of our stay was the thoughtful gesture of packing our breakfast to go since we had an early departure for a trip to Tikal. This level of service truly sets this hotel apart. I would absolutely recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for a memorable stay. A special shoutout to Lola

Hotel Gringo Perdido was a truly great place to stay during our 3-day trip to Tikal and other historical sites. The asphalted road leading to the entrance of HGP is probably the best road in the area as it was recently poured and a second pouring is scheduled soon. The HGP staff were very welcoming and informed us of the complimentary breakfast as well as the complimentary dinner. All the meals we had were delicious, well prepared and presented, and very healthy. We stayed in Suite # 1 and it was very clean, however, there was no television for late night or early morning news viewing. But we did not come this way to watch television so it was not a deal breaker. The pool, the lake, and the beautiful view of the Peten Itza Lake was breathtaking. The suite had two heavy duty hammocks which were very comfortable. The owners created this hotel with everything in mind. I would definitely recommend Hotel Gringo Perdido to be the location of your visit.

Hotel Gringo Perdido is an absolute gem, it is a beautiful yet small hotel right in Lake Peten built within nature. It was so serene & peaceful, absolutely silent from 9pm, and I had the most unbelievable sleeps of my life. The only downsides are that you are very remotely located far from Flores where there are restaurants & boats to take for cheap around the area are and to get there is very inconvenient, either taxi for $50 each way or colectivo/bus with locals which either shows up every 10min or every hour or so, it’s not clear which it will be. Also limited dining at the hotel, only one option for breakfast & dinner each day…a little challenging if you follow a particular diet. But despite these inconveniences I would absolutely stay here again & recommend to friends, the setting more than makes up for things. Also just keep in mind there isn’t a whole lot “to do” here besides relax.

It was a very beautiful property. Room looked nice but was sooo hot. I checked a few times to make sure there was AC before I booked. There was one but really didn’t work. The food was ok it wasn’t great. When you choose to add the meals on when you book you don’t get to order, they have it already chosen what you will eat. I will say they do ask you at book in if you have any allergies but I would prefer to pick myself. For me the food is a big part of the experience

Gringo Perdido was an incredible stay. Breakfast and dinner were included, which was a huge bonus after long days exploring. The property itself is beautiful—swim-up pool, lake access, hammocks throughout the property, and plenty of quiet spaces to relax and unwind. They also have a full-service spa, and the hotel coordinated all of our transportation and excursions, which made everything seamless. Customer service was top notch. Our room was clean, comfortable, and serviced daily. We arrived very late our first night, and they even brought dinner to our room so we wouldn’t miss the meal. This is the perfect place to disconnect. It’s ideal for couples and small families looking for a peaceful getaway. Definitely not a party scene, but rather a place to slow down, relax, and take in the beauty of Lake Petén Itzá. If you’re visiting Petén or heading to Tikal, this is a fantastic place to stay. Highly recommend.
