Mayan Home Stays has started this home stay program in the village to give something back to the communities around Lake Atitlan, and also to give you a very genuine experience of living with a Maya local family to see and experience their culture and customs. Meals in the home will be prepared by the mother of the family and you will have the opportunity to enjoy to taste breakfast and dinner meals at home with the family. (Both are included in the price). you will stay where the locals live in a very safe neighborhood. This experience is runs for 12 years to the village and families who welcome foreigners into their homes. As a responsible traveler, we as guests must be aware of and sensitive to the culture by behaving respectfully during our time with the family and in the village.
