Sak Luk Eco-Lodge
This eco-lodge has the very best view in town! It's located on top of a hill that dominates lake Petén-Itza and cerro Cahui, a crocodile-shaped mountain. It has an interestingly unique rustic architecture and a very relaxed and communal atmosphere, with travelers from all around the world. The restaurant serves yummy food and tasty smoothies. The place is owned and run by very friendly Guatemalan sculptor and maya enthusiast His stories about the Popol Vuh, the maya writings about the creation of men, are really worth listening to.
La Casa de Don David
The best rooms have a/c, hot water and are recently constructed. The property is clean, tidy and well maintained with very friendly staff, who can help with all kinds of activities and transportation. Amenities for hotel guests are free bottled water and internet service.
El Gringo Perdido
This chill lodge is a nice place to relax along the lake. Accommodation is in a few various cabins, and in a small hotel block. One cabin in particular is close to the lake and is the most open to the elements. 2 docks make for decent swimming, and there's a couple of floating platforms to swim out to and sunbathe. Breakfast and dinner are included in the price.
La Casa de Doña Tonita
A peaceful and inexpensive family-run hostel with its own dock on the lake and a restaurant.
Hotel Camino Real Tikal
A luxury hotel in beautiful natural surroundings. It has a restaurant, but with an unimaginative menu. The Biotopo Cerro Cahuà is close by and worth a visit. Expensive.
