Ítaca

Where Every Destination Leads
to a New Journey

From black-sand sunsets on the Pacific to misty mornings on Lake Atitlán, Ítaca welcomes travelers to explore Guatemala through flavor, community, and connection. Every stay, every meal, every shared moment becomes part of the story you take with you.

Hospitality with Soul, from Shore to Shore

Ítaca isn’t just a place—it’s a feeling.

Inspired by the legendary island of Odysseus, we believe the journey itself holds the treasure. Each of our restaurants and hostels is designed to remind you that joy, connection, and purpose live in the moments between departure and arrival.

From a cozy bistro table to a volleyball match at sunset, every experience is a step toward your own Ítaca.

Five Destinations, One Journey

Across Guatemala’s coastlines and highlands, Ítaca offers spaces to gather, eat, rest, and reconnect. Each spot reflects its surroundings—crafted with care, rooted in local flavor, and guided by our promise to leave every place better than we found it.

El Gato Perdido Bistro
International Cuisine 

Gather with friends over fresh, exquisite dishes, paired with drinks that bring the evening to life. El Gato Perdido is a place where food, culture, and community come together in true Ítaca style.

El Gato Perdido Deli
Delicatessen + Market

Fresh meals, local coffee, and artisanal goods made to share—whether you’re bringing them home, packing for a road trip, or surprising someone with a gift. Part deli, part shop, fully local.

The Driftwood Surfer
Hostel + Beach Club

Wake up to ocean swells, chill by the pool, catch a turtle release at sunrise, or play beach volleyball at sunset. Driftwood is the perfect mix of surf, sleep, and social.

Luna y Sol
Co-living + Restaurant

A colorful, plant-forward lakeside retreat for travelers who like to linger. Sip coffee with volcano views, wander through colorful gardens, or sink into a hammock while the day drifts by.

Los Pelícanos
Beachfront Villa

A private beachfront home in Monterrico for those seeking space, privacy, and barefoot luxury. Wake to ocean breezes, dine under palm trees, and end your day with the sound of waves just beyond your door.

Travel Can Feel Good—and Do Good

We believe great hospitality lifts up everyone it touches.

That’s why we hire locally, cook seasonally, pay fairly, and invest in the communities that make these destinations extraordinary. From sponsoring every turtle released in El Paredón to training young chefs at the lake, our work starts and ends with impact.

Because every guest is part of the journey—and the change it creates.
