Porta Hotel del Lago is located in the town of Panajachel, in Guatemala’s Sololá department, just 90 miles (145 km) from the capital city, by the waters of the world's most beautiful lake: Atitlán.

This lake is surrounded by three beautiful volcanoes -- Tolimán volcano at 10,335 feet (3,150 m), Atitlán at 11,604 feet (3537 m) and San Pedro at 9,908 feet (3020 m) above sea level. It is the only place in the country where, in such a small area, there is a huge level of cultural diversity reflected in the various dress and customs of each of the 12 communities living around the Lake Atitlan basin.
