Why we work with them
The Hotel Bambú was founded and designed by José Ramón de Castro who hacving spent mny years traveling around the world, fell in love with the beauty of Santiago Atitlan. He decided to build the hotel not only just to provide guests with an exceptional experience on Lake Atitln, but lso to protect their own area of this special place. The Bambu Hotel has a very unique garden that surrounds he hotel and aims to promote the local endemic flora and fauna of the area.
The hotel has not only designed the hotel in the style of the Tz’utujil Indians, all of the staff are local Tz’utujil Indians as well. It is this interaction with the local community and town of Santiago that really give this hotel its sense of place.
