Lake Atitlan is truly an amazing destination, and Panajachel, the largest town around it is the obligated stop for visitors.
The main road from Guatemala city gets you to Panajachel, and there, tourists can easily find hotels for all budgets, restaurants, bars, street handicraft markets, local tour companies, banks, ATMs, internet places, and anything a tourist can need.
Called “gringotenango” (place of gringos) by many, maintains a floating population of foreigners, be it tourists coming for one or two days only, or people that practically live here on a regular basis, for retirement or because it is a nice and cheap place to live.
The bohemian ambiance in the bars also attracts many Guatemalans on the weekends, specially the younger party-seekers, but families also come to enjoy the weather and views.
