Villa Sumaya

Location
Villa Sumaya is on the Northern shore of Lake Atitlán, which is about 3 hours from Guatemala City by car or minivan. From Panajachel, the main town on the lake, you can only take a boat across the lake to Villa Sumaya.

By Air:
Guatemala City La Aurora (100km) is the closest airport. Click on the links below for a list of airlines serving it.

From the Airport:
Villa Sumaya can arrange private transfers for you (see Rates) or you can book shuttle services to Panajachel through most travel agents (see below).

By Bus:
This is by far the most common method of transport internally. Lake Atitlán is some 3 hours from Antigua, plus another hour or so from Guatemala City airport, by private transfer or in a shuttle minibus. Prices will vary according to the luxury status of the vehicle.

By Car:
Driving around Guatemala is certainly possible, with relatively empty roads and friendly locals, but bear in mind it's expensive and you may have some concerns over security - a good working knowledge of Spanish will definitely help your cause. For car hire we recommend Holiday Autos, but please bear in mind that you can only reach Villa Sumaya by boat so you would need to leave your car in Panajachel, and there's no provision made for parking by Villa Sumaya.

Detailed directions will be sent to you once your booking is confirmed.
