We spent our last morning in Panajachel lounging in our Airbnb. After a típico lunch, we headed to the docks under overcast skies and a choppy lake. This time we had our suitcases with us—placed on top of the boat and, surprisingly, not even tied down. The boat was a little nicer with cushions and seat backs, and since I sat in the back, it didn’t feel quite as rough.
We arrived at Casa del Mundo and it truly is a beautiful hotel. The rooms are all unique, set at different heights along the hillside. We were in Room 11 and had to climb a lot of steps, but it was worth it. The room has Guatemalan décor, is quite spacious, and has a large balcony with a view of the volcanoes
The property itself is stunning, with winding stone walkways and incredible gardens. We explored a bit and made our way down to the swimming patio just as the rain started. It quickly turned into a downpour, and since our room was probably 100 steep steps up, there was no easy escape. Eventually, we had no choice but to run back in the rain.
We changed into dry clothes and, once the rain stopped, went down to the restaurant for a beer. We skipped dinner since we had a big lunch earlier. We ended the night watching a movie, and to make it even cozier, the resident cat came in and made herself comfortable on our bed.
