I recently completed a weekend stay at Rancho Grande Inn, I had stayed there almost 10 years and was pleasantly surprised to see that the standard of quality and service remains high. Our room was spacious, had a chimney and was clean. The room did not feel dated. And please DO NOT miss the FREE breakfast, out of this world... More

I imagine that summertime at the pool would be a fun time for youngsters at the Rancho Grande in Panajachel. The location is central, the rooms/cabins are quite nice and the breakfast was very good. Breakfast is across the street from the complex where the rooms are located.

This was our fourth visit to the Rancho Grande Inn! It is very satisfying to be able to return to a place and experience the same peaceful, picturesque, and well appointed accomodation time after time. The staff is all very attentive and helpful, and the breakfast is unmatched. The only suggestion I have is that the rooms be provided with... More

My husband and I stayed at Rancho Grande in May. This is our fourth stay over a period of 10 years. The grounds are as beautiful as ever and the breakfast is delicious. To keep up their positivereputation, we recommend that they get some stronger lights in the room as we could barely read, and update the bed linens as... More

From the first phone call, the Staff at Rancho Grande were attentive and professional. They were willing to negotiate rates for a longer stay, were helpful in arranging reliable transportation from Guatemala City and had connections on call for paragliding and other activities. Everyone was wiling to serve, whether it be extra pancakes (the ones everyone has raved about!) or... More

I stayed at the hotel Rancho Grande for 3 nights, recuperating from a terrible back problem. The staff were there to greet me and were aware of my medical ailment and were very helpful. They had secured the services of a back specialist who started treatment 2 hours after I arrived. The staff looked after me wonderfully and were very... More

Our family of 6 along with another family of 5 spent time at the Rancho Grande. Honestly, you will not find a better hotel for the price. The breakfast is amazing, absolutely delicious pancakes, the best ever! Everything was clean and the yards were well kept. We lived close to Panajachel for awhile and really truly you will not get...

We stayed two nights in late Feb. 2011. The pluses were the location, the cleanliness, and the care of the grounds. We were in a small cottage and had a deck that overlooked the lawns. The breakfast (included) was excellent coffee, scrambled eggs, fresh buns, wonderful pancakes and, of course. black beans. The only negative...no hot water when we arrived,... More

My husband, myself, and our 3 school-aged children had traveled to Panajachel in order to visit a non-profit which supports Mayan girls' schooling. We'd collected a suitcase of needed school supplies to bring this organization based in Panajachel. Our stay at the Rancho Grande Inn came at the end of our Guatemala trip. Prior to this, we had lived for... More
