Description
Ten years ago we landed San Marcos, Lake Atitlan, as backpackers with a plan to stay a month or two... Once here, we fell in love with the magnificient views of the lake, mountains and erupting volcanos, and even more so with the people and their culture.

We brought our love for travelling, yoga, wellness, music, theatre, and people and combined our passions into establishing what became one of the premier hostel\bar\restaurants in Guatemala.

Over this last decade we had two beautiful children, now aged 8 and 10, and when Covid hit we decided that enough was enough with the high turnover tourism and late night events, and to instead move back into the property and create a quieter kind of life...

We spent the last 18 months renovating the old restaurant into a home, and have kept the room rentals and recently opened a new cafe/bar on the property as well in conjunction with two friends who came to us as volunteers at the end of 2020! We are interested in hearing from people with hospitality experience; anything in hostels/hotels/bars/restaurants and front desk/front of house type work, and housekeeping, as well as carpentry, electric, construction of any kind, gardeners, handy-people, interior design, and at the right moments social media/website/marketing skills.

We are sure you will fall in love with our little piece of paradise as we did, and look forward to hearing from you if our location and projects appeal!!

Sarah, Bryan, and kids!!

Emerald was a joy to have around. She fitted in extremely well to the team, was friendly, helpful, responsible and competent. She did all tasks asked of her happily and well, and we would love to have her back here again if she came this way! If you get the opportunity to host her, then take it!!

Después de casi un año aquí está mi reseña para the hostel! Algo que debería haber hecho hace tiempo pero por diferentes situaciones de la vida no había podido. Nuestra experiencia en hostel unca voy a olvidarla. Todo comenzó antes de toda la locura de la pandemia, allí por noviembre de 2019. Desde el momento que entré sentí la magia que había… read more allí. Es un lugar con historia de muchos años, mucho esfuerzo, mucho amor de miles de voluntarios y trabajadores locales que día a día llevaban a cabo las diferentes actividades que hacían funcionar el hostal de una manera orgánica y amigable con una hermosa interacción entre todos, tanto locales como extranjeros. Propuestas culturales, mercados, noches de baile, yoga diario, sauna, open mic, noche de cine etc etc etc y un restaurant que funcionaba desde el desayuno hasta la cena cada día hacían de este lugar un espacio para toda la comunidad de San Marcos. Fue sumamente gratificante poder aprender la cultura local, poder intercambiar, compartir y aprender de las hermosas cocineras su forma de vida, su lenguaje y sus deliciosas comidas (Isa, Florindas, Rosario, Marías, Elena) todas mujeres fuertes e inspiradoras. Todo esto orquestado por Bryan y Sarah, dos viajeros que le dieron forma a su sueño a orillas de este mágico cráter lleno de agua y rodeado de volcanes. Bryan y Sarah tienen algo increíble y es la apertura para captar las capacidades de las personas y potenciarlas, dando la apertura para crear siempre y estar abiertos a todas las visiones y todas las propuestas. Lo que me encantó de trabajar con ellos fue justamente eso, la libertad para poder desarrollar las ideas, siempre pensando en mejorar. Ellos tienen la virtud de saber apoyar y escuchar y tienen la vivacidad para emprender nuevos desafíos como así ocurrió cuando comenzó la pandemia y el hostal se vio forzado (como el mundo entero) a cambiar completamente. Los huéspedes huyeron en su mayoría a sus países de origen y tuvimos que reinventarnos todos, el lugar y nosotros mismos, con las pocas personas que quedaron residiendo. Agradezco haber transcurrido la pandemia allí, no sólo por la hermosa naturaleza que nos rodeaba sino tamién por participar de un espacio donde se siguió apoyando a los trabajdores locales con proyectos de siembra, brindando apoyo de todo tipo para poder sobrellevar esa situación, así también el apoyo que sentí a mí misma en todo este momento de cambio. Aprendí muchísimas cosas que hoy día sigo practicando, desde las clases de yoga matutinas hasta los fermentos, panificación y cocina en general que desarrollé en todo este proceso. Gracias infinitas a ambos por todo el amor, la dedicación y la humanidad con la que se manejan en la vida. Gracias por compartir, por ser familia durante esos duros meses. Siempre sentiré que son mi hogar en Guatemala. Abrazos y besos enormes para Percy, Amari, Xela, Goldie, toda la comunidad de San Marcos y a ustedes dos que hacen posible un lugar de encuentro inolvidable y nunca bajan los brazos :) Les mando mucho amor y nos vemos pronto!

The first thing I would say about Noe and Juan is, if you get a chance to host them, take it!!
They applied to us in November last year (2019) and we could already tell from their profiles that they would be great people to have at our place... This was confirmed when the place they went first in Antigua offered them season long positions before… read more they even made it to our hostel!! We knew we needed some strong team members for the high season, so coaxed them down to talk to us, and managed to convince them to come to our place after all, albeit after returning to finish their commitments in Antigua with their customary integrity.
They jumped right in and took over all management duties from our previous manager with less than a month of training, and acted as general managers covering all aspects of scheduling and organization of the teams for reception, bar, restaurant, cleaning, bookings, purchases, and all the other small daily details of running a busy hostel. Being fluently bilingual, they could communicate perfectly with both our mostly English speaking guests, and our Spanish speaking staff. We live offsite, and so to have their strong, gregarious, and competent presence in our place over those busy months was a godsend!!
They coordinated our team of around ten volunteers, six cleaning ladies, ten restaurant staff, and a social hostel that opens at 7am and runs through until around midnight, and kept everything running smoothly and the teams all working well and feeling good.
Juan is also an amazing musician and singer, and played many nights in our restaurant to entertain our guests, both with other musicians and alone.
They held this role all the way from November until mid-March, when the Covid crisis hit, and then completely held our place together through those first early stages of chaos and confusion... Our ability to get to our place was initially very limited as all public boats on the lake were restricted, as was road travel, and they were in constant communication with us on how to manage the guests we had in our place and the situation with our staff. They supported our guests through difficult and confusing times, cancelled flights, difficult travel, repatriation efforts. They helped us reinvent our business model dozens of times to take into account how to continue to house and feed our guests within endlessly changing government restrictions, and more than anything they held a strong and stable presence that allowed us to feel safe when we couldn’t be there, and that convinced several guests to stay longer rather than fleeing for the borders, because they were in a place where they felt safe and happy.
As the craziness of those early days passed, we changed from a business to a closed ‘family style’ living situation. Noe took on a lot cooking for the people still left and her food quickly evolved from good to incredible!! Creative and delicious meals, stews, breads, quiches, cakes, pies, fermented probiotic drinks... Wow!! As well as helping with this, Juan has also helped us with lots of maintenance of the grounds, gardens and buildings, as well as moving furniture and helping with all the random tasks as we completely pack down the hostel and prepare to turn the property into our home.
This is obviously an epic write up and not a normal review, but it is hard to fully ‘review’ this incredible couple without telling the story of the crazy time they have helped us through. From smoothly running the business through the busiest high season we have ever had, with 200 person parties, churning short-stay guests and a restaurant that ran for fourteen hours a day, to a global pandemic that led to chaos, confusion, and us not being able to physically travel to our business, to the slow settling and rebuilding as we move forwards from here... They have been consistent, stable, competent, flexible, creative, always willing to move with what is needed in the moment, and always reliable for support and advice. Honestly without their help over this period, I really don’t know how we would have coped.
If you are a host and you get the opportunity to host these guys, take it!! They will rise to any challenge, go above and beyond, and enrich your business, home, farm, whatever it is you have, beyond measure!! After ten years of hosting work traders, we can say without doubt that this couple are absolute solid gold 😁

Juliana fitted into well to the team, and got along well with all members of the team, both other volunteers and our local staff.

She was friendly and personable at all times.

When I look back at my time in Guatemala, this hostel was a major part of it. I extended my stay here so I was able to be a part of the hostel for 3 months and am forever grateful I did. The experiences I had and friendships I made will always be in my heart.

The work was straight forward and allowed me to meet most of the town while still… read more giving me enough time to explore. The scheduling was really simple and all the other volunteers were very helpful if I needed to re-arrange my volunteer hours. I was able to get to know some of the local workers which was a blast for me as well as a challenge, the hostel gives you the opportunity to learn the local Mayan language, Kaqchikel which all the locals speak, as well as improve your Spanish.

My accommodations were really fun, I slept in the bus which has artwork, memories, and odd poems from people who previous stayed in the bus. Almost every night Xela, one of the hostel dogs, would man the drivers seat while we slept for the night. Xela is a wonderful guard companion for the whole hostel by driving out stray dogs. I also want to emphasize the fact that this hostel was extremely stable for me unlike the constant up and downs of San Marcos living.

I thoroughly enjoyed the access to the sauna and having a dock to the lake just a few steps away. I could wake up and watch the sunrise or sit out late to watch Fuego erupting its lava in the far distance. The hostel puts on events 6 days out of the week which really gets the community involved, especially for Drum Circle Tuesdays, so even if you are feeling like staying home, the party will come to you! It's also really cool that volunteers usually get discounts to other community events such as ecstatic dances and the Full Moon Parties! Also, that mediterranean sandwich and breakfast burrito you guys make are stellar! AND can't forget my favorite, the Guacamole!

My all time favorite part of being here was feeling like I had a family. I spent Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's here which normally I would spend with my family but being with the hostel family made me feel at home. For Christmas we rallied up all the workers and volunteers we could to enjoy a nice potluck with everyone. That was a truly magical moment for me.

Thank you very much Bryan and Sarah for this wonderful opportunity that really changed my life. Thank you for running the hostel even though there are the ups and downs of operating one while raising children and living life. I wish you guys the best with everything and I hope one day to visit once more when travel is opened back up. Much Love!
