This is amazing hotel. The service is top quality. Employees are friendly and very helpful. We stayed at a room with king bed. It's three times the size of a regular hotel room. Our room was overlooking the lake behind the reception. Behind the water is an amazing forest view. I preferred it to the rooms overlooking the bigger lake on the other side of the property. You can relax in the hot tub watching the forest, listening to the howling monkey shout. Such a unique experience.. If you are a...

Great little hotel. Well located. Super modern and pretty. Staff were great. The little restaurant may look empty, but the food was really good.
I definitely recommend if you are visiting Flores.

We spent 2 weeks touring Guatemala, attracted by its natural beauty and the Mayan civilization. Hotel Bolontiku is one of our best part. Initially we didn't know that it's a hidden jewel on the lake. We took a taxi following Google Map. It is very wrong - the hotel would pick us up at the port of Flores!
The hotel with 15 suites were built on the cliff, with each suite hidden in the trees. The view is fabulous. The environment is so natural and serene. Yet, we got high speed internet and...

Not too small. Not too big. But the rooms are nicely-sized. And while the hotel does not have central air conditioning, the in-room units are powerful, which is an absolute necessity (for me, at least) in the very hot, very humid rain forest of the Peten. The rooftop bar is a lively place to be in town, but it quiets down very nicely when it is time to go sleep. The rooftop pool is small, but (a) the hotel is not that big, it won't be crowded, and (b) it's big enough for cooling dip when the...

The property was amazing.. the staff was great. A gem in an unlikely location. Although there was no other hotel like it around, it was a 5-7 minute drive to the Island of Flores where all the night life and restaurants are. Would definitely come again.

One of the older hotels on the island but going strong. Clean and up-to-date rooms. I had one of the cheaper ones overlooking the pool. Staff was helpful and friendly. Packed breakfast and taxi were arranged for my early morning flight (before regular breakfast service)

The hotel, consisting of separate cabanas, is conveniently located on a main road near Flores, Guatemala. We arrived in a high-roof van with a roof rack and were able to access the property without any issues. We greatly enjoyed the grilled dinner for 4. The pool was very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and helpful!

Beautiful setting for a hotel, on the beach of Lake Peten Itza and inside the Guatemalan rainforest! You can see and hear howling monkeys on the way to your room!
