Blancaneaux Lodge By Francis Ford Coppola, San Ignacio

The dining at Blancaneaux Lodge is a true highlight of the stay. Every meal was a good experience, featuring incredibly fresh ingredients sourced from their own organic garden. The gourmet dishes served at the Guatemalan-themed restaurant were standout moments, and the chef's tour of the garden before dinner was a unique touch that made the 'Garden event' lovely. The care the culinary team has for guest preferences is evident, making dining an really good experience.

Our cabana was a dream! It featured a private plunge pool, a spacious screen room, and an impressively designed bathroom that opened into its own courtyard. The attention to detail, such as the shell phone for requests and the cozy ambiance created with candles for turn-down service, truly enhanced our experience and made us feel pampered during our stay.

I treated myself to a massage during our stay, and it was absolutely one of the best I've ever had! The serene atmosphere of the spa coupled with the expertise of the therapist helped me unwind completely. Post-treatment, lounging in our private cabana and taking in the sounds of nature made for a rejuvenating afternoon that I will not forget.
