When we think of the perfect getaway, we often look for more than just a beautiful room or a good meal: we seek experiences that connect us with nature, with silence, with ourselves. In the heart of Alta Verapaz, surrounded by mountains and cloud forests, lies Hotel Casa Gaia, an ecological gem that offers just that.


Here we share five reasons why your next visit to Cobán will be an unforgettable experience:


1. You stay within a private nature reserve. Casa Gaia isn't just a hotel: it's also a nature reserve. Its gardens and trails are surrounded by pine trees, sweetgums, and native species. Walking along its paths, you'll encounter local birds, fresh air, and a natural cave in the heart of the grounds. It's the ideal place to reconnect with your inner self.


2. True silence just minutes from downtown Cobán. One of Casa Gaia's greatest distinguishing features is its location: just 14 blocks from Cobán's central park, allowing you to walk to the historic center, restaurants, or shops, but at the same time, upon returning, you feel like you're in the middle of the forest. The hotel's motto sums it up: "In and out of the city at the same time."


3. Comfortable, warm, and thoughtful rooms. Each room has a private bathroom, hot water, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and eco-friendly amenities. Whether you're traveling alone, as a couple, with family, or with friends, there's an option for you: from standard to family and deluxe rooms. All surrounded by greenery and tranquility.


4. Restaurant with local products and forest views. The hotel's restaurant is designed to allow you to enjoy local flavors with the best views. Whether indoors, under the pergola, or on the outdoor deck, you can have breakfast, lunch, or dinner while taking in the natural beauty that surrounds the property.


5. Ideal starting point for exploring Las Verapaces. From Casa Gaia, you can organize visits to Semuc Champey, the Lanquín Caves, Orquigonia, the Quetzal Biotopo, Finca Chicoj, Hun Nal Ye, and many more natural destinations. Additionally, the hotel staff can guide you through your ideal itinerary.


Staying at Casa Gaia means choosing a more humane, sustainable, and connected experience. Ideal for those who value nature, tranquility, and soulful service.
