    Nothing , everything was perfect 💯

    Everything was perfect! Peter, Eric and Yolanda were incredible nice and great hosts. Breakfast in the mornings were delicious and even more with that lovely view from the lake. The place is tranquil, perfect to relax after a busy day in Flores or doing the excursions. Comfy bed, great hot shower and a pool to cool down in the hot afternoon.

    Peter was amazing and made everything as stress free as possible. The food and coffee were amazing. It was extremely easy getting to and from town as needed thanks to Eric (he also makes a great hot sauce). The bed was large and extremely comfortable and the bathroom/shower was clean and beautiful. It was also nice to be away from the noise of Flores but be able to get to the island within 5 minutes any time we wanted. PS The dogs were extremely cute and friendly.

    Smell from the bathroom was something we won’t miss, it came mostly after showering from the canalization. Unfortunately something that’s hard to fix.

    Great place to relax and chill for a few days with the best view on Flores. Clear recommendation to stay on San Miguel instead directly in Flores. Don’t worry you get picked up and brought back to catch your next bus. Peter and his staff are super friendly and happy to help with anything.

    I liked the quiet, beautiful location in San Miguel. It was easy to get across the water by boat for dinner or sightseeing in Flores. Peter and his wife were great hosts and really make the place a must stay. He organized everything we needed very well and was always willing to go the extra mile for his guests. The boat tour he gave us was fun, and the meals we had in the hotel were very good. We also really enjoyed the pool in the hot afternoons.

    If you wanted to go out late or go back and forth to Flores island a lot it would be a little challenging. Whilst you miss all the party noises and firecrackers going off on Flores island, you do get a few roosters!

    Lovely little spot opposite Flores Island. Given we only had two nights in Flores and needed to organise Tikal, our host made everything a breeze! From the boat pick up to lovely made to order food to Tikal your. Made life very easy, great value for money, and comfortable massive bed.

    For 40 dollars per night AC is not included. Everything costs extra. Felt a bit overpriced. Not many food options around in this part of the city. During my stay the party boat on the lake was very noisy until very late but that's not the fault of the hotel

    Owner is nice and helpful. Food is good quality, not cheap but in line with prices of touristic places in town. Rooms are good. You should stay here if you're not a solo traveler and if you want to stay more than 2 nights as for 2 nights it's a bit further out from flores

    The only small thing was the shower, there was once or twice when it was a bit too hot, this may have only been in my room. Regardless I still give this place a 10/10 based on everything else

    Incredible Views, Peter is one of the best hosts in any property I have every stayed at. Very knowledgable about local culture and history and great in giving advice on things to do. You’re treated very honestly and respectfully at this place and for me I really appreciate that. Away from the hustle and bustle of Flores but still so easy and cheap to get to the main island. Hummingbirds everywhere, if you like peace and quiet with a great host and good food then trust me and stay here. There is also a passion and a love for the grounds and garden and a passion for life in general and it’s great to see. Watch sunrise from rooftop

    Nothing

    Peter was incredibly helpful and really made everything run so smooth and easy for us. The transfers to and from the airport were amazing, all the staff were very kind and helpful and stayed with us the whole way to make sure we got there ok. We were late arriving but they offered to cook us some dinner which was probably the best food I've had in my 10 days in Guatemala! Highly recommend eating in at least one night. Peter organized our Tikal tour and Carlos escorted us to the pick up point. Location is great because getting to and from the island is so easy, you can always message the hotel and they will send a boat for you. The surrounding area of the hotel is also great to explore, recommend the Mirador, beach and excavations! I wish we could've spent more time here! Thankyou for a great stay!

    Nothing - it was great

    We had a fantastic time at Zapote Tree Inn! The location is quiet which was perfect for us, and we were taken to the busier parts of the lake by boat whenever we asked! The grounds were really beautifully done, the staff were amazing, and the dinner was fab too. We accidentally left some belongings behind and Peter kindly arranged for them to be delivered to a hotel in Mexico - so helpful and kind, thank you!

    The staff member there was so so helpful and kind - he picked us up from the jetty in Flores when we arrived, while being very communicative over whatsapp to ensure we timed it well. He also then arranged our Tikal tour for us and the price was better than the tourist places in Flores or other hotels, for the exact same tour! And then he even took us to our bus at 4am for the tour. He only spoke Spanish but we figured it out! The accommodation itself is basic but very clean and there was AC in the room. Definitely something a little more quirky than staying on Flores island itself, especially for the price.
