  We are excited to introduce Villas del Carmen, retreat center and luxury lodging on the north shore of Lake Atitlan. Previously known as Club Ven Aca, Villas del Carmen is undergoing renovations, rebranding, and re-awakening to the endless possibilities for deeply connected and transcendent experiences on the shore of the most beautiful lake in the world.

  We are committed to crafting a space for healing, celebrating, honoring, growing, and creating through the lens of community and change. This is a place where our guests are presented with the opportunity to experience Guatemala and the richness of her people, history, and natural treasures with unparalleled amenities and comforts. Look forward to Starlink internet, potable water systems throughout, lake front pool and jacuzzi, plush bamboo sheets and memory foam bedding, passive solar hot water, solar-system electric, friendly and knowledgeable staff who will stock your kitchen, book your transportation and tours, and even prepare you delicious and nourishing meals on site.

  Villas del Carmen is named in honor of the property’s original owner who’s vision for the space is being exalted and refined in the spirit of the word’s Arabic origin, meaning “garden or orchard”. A place where all scenes are alert at all times: sights and scents of flowers and trees, the taste of fruits, the soft felling of the petals and the water that laps at the shore, the sound of the birds that flutter up in the branches and the soft murmur of the wind through leaves.

  The garden here has been mindfully crafted and cultivated over 15 years by Arturo Perez, a talented and devoted Ka’qchikel man who has made the property his Earthen canvas where he has colored the landscape with native flowers and plants that he sprouted and planted from a few original “mother” plants over a decade ago.

  Our team is working tirelessly on the renovations, remodels, and upgrades to create the dreamiest boutique retreat center and lodging experience on Atitlan. We currently have one studio suite available for nightly rental and look forward to unveiling the rest of the accommodations soon. DM for more details or to set up a discovery call!
