Great house! Beautiful views from every room. Clean and comfortable. Lots of stairs from the center of town, but so worth the climb! The kitchen has everything you need. Maura the owner and Jose the gardener were both very helpful. Thank you!

Stayed here with my family as we explored Lake Atitlan. It's truly an amazing house with views of the volcanos and lake. Communication with the host was easy and prompt. Two things to note: There are stairs (~3 stories) required to get up to the house. This was not an issue for us, but it would be very difficult for physically impaired guests. The second was that their was no AC in the house, only fans. The weather was nice enough where this was not a problem. I noticed this with other listings I've stayed in in Guatemala, and believe that it's because the websites don't have an option for fans, so the feature is listed as AC.

Blue Sky is pure serenity. A beautiful nest in a magical garden. Everything about Blue Sky is delightful, especially Maura, Marce, and Jose who assisted my family daily with our wonderful 9 day stay… from cooking, preparing food, sauna, car rides/tours, cleaning. Pure joy. Thank you with all my heart, would love to return to Blue Sky. Xx
