About the host
Hosted by Julio Herrera
I'm Julio, thrilled you're exploring my listings. Excited to unveil Lake Atitlan's wonders to you. A bit about me: Guatemala-born, I migrated to the US during the 80s, returning after 14 years. Guatemala and its captivating lake stole my heart from day one, leading to Casa Verapaz—a dream in the making.
Why they chose this property
I love the tranquility of our small village. I love our property location, 5 minute walk into the village, 12 minute drive on paved road from Panajachel, and lake access with a a 2 minute walk to both the how springs and village pier. I love waking up to nature and seeing the two inactive volcanoes across the lake
