I hesitate to say too many nice things about this place....because i don't want it to become too busy!!! Gringo Perdido is one of my favorite place in the world. The village of El Remate, only a few kilometres from Gringo, is a welcoming and peaceful place, far removed from the hustle and bustle of other 'tourist' town destinations in Guatemala. If you've been here, you know the names..so i won't bother to mention them. If you are looking for crowds, vendors, pick pockets and pollution, go somewhere else in Guatemala. Looking for surreal and endless peace, unexplainable energy, refreshing swimming, comfortable rooms, exceptional cuisine, and incredibly welcoming and warm hosts - head to Gringo. All of the locals who work here, the managing team and especially, I mean REALLY especially the ownership family... they have owned and operated Gringo Perdido for almost 50 years... and have an immaculate record of conservation, sustainability, community support... they have done so much for this village in way of support health, employment and education. Why not stay somewhere where you know the proceeds are invested back into the community? Where the family helps build medical and dental care centers, student scholarships, vocational training, culture preservation in many ways...land and historical site preservation. A massive storm took out a portion of the lobby area, and they not only rebuilt it more magnificent and beautiful than ever, but they re-invested in numerous upgrades to the rooms, lounge area, kitchen and recreational areas. however...after travelling and staying here for over 20 years, i was amazed and extremely pleased to see the charm and enjoyment of the property was only exacerbated. Comfort, safety, peace and joy. I have been here by myself, with my family, and with a group of 40+ people... every experience is different, and all are incredibly memorable. less than 3 hours from Rio Dulce, 20 minutes to Tikal, and within 30 minutes of other Mayan ruin parks, lake activities, animal rescue parks, Flores, zip-lines.... lots of good old fun to be had. or hang out in a hammock all day (I highly recommend it) and pour through a book and a few fresh fantastic cocktails at their full service (yet quaint and comfortable) bar. I love this place. I LOVE this place. 'Nuff said.
