A Gentle Reminder from Anzan Atitlán
At Anzan Atitlán, we offer an experience that diverges from the conventional hotel setup. Our approach to hospitality is rooted in sharing our private home with you, embracing a lifestyle closely intertwined with nature. As you prepare for your stay with us, here are some key aspects to keep in mind:
Living Harmoniously with Nature:
- No TV or AC: Our home is designed to embrace the natural climate and beauty of Lake Atitlán. We do not provide TVs or air conditioning as we encourage our guests to disconnect from digital distractions and immerse themselves in the tranquil surroundings.
- Open Living: We sleep with doors and windows open all year round, allowing the natural breeze and sounds of the lake to soothe and refresh.
- Starry Nights: We turn off our lights at night, offering a magnificent view of the stars. This practice also reflects our consciousness about energy conservation and our desire to minimize light pollution.
- Natural Bath: The lake serves as our most expansive and ever-changing ‘bathroom,’ inviting you for a swim in its pristine waters. We do have solar and gas-heated water for showers, but we encourage you to experience the lake’s natural embrace.
- Power and Connectivity: While we are equipped with solar power and occasionally rely on gas for heating, power outages do happen. These moments, when electricity and internet signals may be off, offer a precious opportunity for self-reflection and true disconnection from the fast-paced world.
