Description
Posada del Angel has been moulded into a quiet oasis of tranquillity. There are 5 guest rooms and suites oozing with character, each individually decorated to perfectly reflect Guatemalan style with antique artifacts and wood burning fireplaces. All of the suites surround a tranquil garden and lap pool laden with ferns and bougainvillea. The library and breakfast lounge are particularly inviting but all public areas tend to give a warm and cozy atmosphere.
Antigua is an inspirational array of craft shops, museums, jade jewellery boutiques, colonial architecture, and folk art galleries which give great insight into the intriguing Guatemalan culture. But if you're looking for something a little more active why not climb one of the local active volcanoes for a truely unforgettable experience.

When to travel
There’s no bad time for visiting Guatemala, though the rainy season – called invierno (winter) – makes unpaved roads more difficult from mid-May to mid-October, and into November and December in the north and east. In the lowland jungles of El Petén, the mud at this time will slow you down, guaranteed. Humidity – never low on the coasts or in El Petén – increases during the rainy season, too. The dry season – verano (summer) – is from about November to April, and this means sweltering heat in El Petén and along the coasts and comfortably warm days in the highlands.
The height of the foreign tourist season is from Christmas to Easter. Things become acute around Christmas, New Year’s and Easter, when Guatemalans take holidays too– in many places you’ll need to book ahead. Another high season runs June to August, when throngs of North Americans descend on Guatemala.
