Nestled high above the colonial city of Antigua, Earth Lodge is more than just a retreat—it’s a sanctuary for the soul. Perched at 6,000 feet in the lush mountains of Guatemala, this eco-lodge offers breathtaking views of the valley below and the towering volcanoes that define the region’s dramatic landscape. Our two-night stay at this magical destination was nothing short of transformative, offering the perfect blend of adventure, relaxation, and deep reconnection with nature.
A Tranquil Escape into the Mountains
When we arrived at Earth Lodge, we knew we had stepped into a different world. Accessible via a scenic hike down a forested trail, the lodge feels like a secret hideaway where time slows and the mind unwinds. The air is crisp, infused with the earthy scent of pine and fresh mountain breezes. We were welcomed with warm smiles and a refreshing natural juice, setting the tone for an unforgettable stay.
Immersive Accommodation in Treehouse Bliss
Earth Lodge is renowned for its unique accommodations, offering cozy cabins and treehouses that blend seamlessly with their surroundings. Our treehouse, perched high among the avocado trees, provided a panoramic view of the majestic Agua, Fuego, and Acatenango volcanoes. Waking up to the golden hues of sunrise over the valley, with birdsong as our morning alarm, was a truly grounding experience. The simple yet beautifully crafted wooden interiors, complete with hammocks and private balconies, allowed us to fully embrace the tranquility of the natural world.
Farm-to-Table Dining: A Feast for the Senses
One of the highlights of Earth Lodge is its incredible plant-forward cuisine. The on-site restaurant serves up fresh, locally sourced, and deliciously wholesome meals. Every dish—from vibrant salads to homemade soups and hearty vegetarian main courses—was a celebration of flavors, nourishing both body and soul. Shared communal dining created a sense of connection with fellow travelers, fostering a warm and inviting atmosphere where stories and laughter flowed freely.
Healing Through Nature and Adventure
Earth Lodge offers a range of experiences that nurture both adventure and relaxation. We spent our days hiking through scenic trails, practicing yoga on the deck with the breathtaking backdrop of volcanoes, and unwinding with a book in a hammock. The property’s avocado farm and sustainable ethos made us appreciate the harmony between human life and nature. In the evenings, we gathered around the fire pit under a blanket of stars, feeling the kind of peace that only a place like this can provide.
