Designer Sustainable Villa nestled in 2 acres of gorgeous edible gardens. We can also provide gourmet cooked from scratch meals. The Villa hosts up to 9 guests, but we have two more cottages with kitchen you can rent sepparately, bathroom and patios on the same gardens, one for 4 people and one for up to 3 guests. A 10 minute walk from the shores of Lake Atitlan. Guests have access onsite to our mayan sauna and spring cold plunge pool, as well as to our wellness services. 10 minute walk from the shores of Lake Atitlan.
The house is ample and receives plenty of natural light. The views to the lake are spectacular and it is located amidst luscious tropical vegetation.
Other highlights of The Seed include:
- The people on site (AarĂłn, JoaquĂn and the cleaning girls) were super friendly and helpful.
- There is a roof top space, used as a yoga shala, which we enjoyed every single day for exercising, lounging, and just enjoying the view...
- The swimming pool, although not roomy enough for swimming, is a great asset for entertaining young ones.
- The temazcal was a great experience, particularly when combined with cold plunges in the little pool.
A few things we would have wanted to know in advance, as we were traveling with kids:
- Reaching the house from the street requieres climbing hundreds of steps.
- Scorpions are likely to be found on site (we found three indoors... one in one of the kids beds).
And a few recommendations for the managing staff:
- Plumbing maintenance seems to be in order.
- Watering down shampoo and soap ends up in larger waste.
A designer of sustainable kind spaces, I create dwellings made of natural materials where nature sips in trough every corner. My gardens are edible and medicinal in more ways than one. Living an inspired healthy life in nature is my passion and I try to bring that to my guests.
Tzununa is a thriving town where mayan people mixes with a cornucopia of international travelers, many in the spiritual, permaculture and ecstatic dance scene. We invite you to come and check out this remote and unique location.
