Low key lakeside massage
Nov 2022 • Solo
Excellent massage in a low key lakeside setting. You can chill out in the hammocks and swim in the lake here too. The tours they offer are also excellent.

Relaxing and tranquil massage
Apr 2019 • Solo
I stayed at the property and scheduled a massage for day two. It was the perfect end to a lovely day. The room was right by the water, so the sounds of the waves hitting the shore was the backdrop. Elaine offered a good mix of talking and quiet. She asked about her pressure and made sure I was comfortable. It was the perfect end to a great trip.

Elaine accommodated me for a last minute massage. Her hands are magic! And listening to the sounds of the water while relaxing on the table made it even better!

Best massage of my life
Jan 2018 • Solo
I had an amazing experience at this spa today. The massage room is very close to the water so you have a mix of relaxing sounds of the water with calming aromas from oils used in the massage. Highly recommend for anyone in the lake area.

Tired after a long journey or just want an hour of pure luxury?
Jan 2018 • Solo
Elaine has been a massage therapist for years, and every year I come here she has learned even more. She is the best massage therapist I have ever had.
She has also got a beautiful place for her massages. You hear the water and the birds. You can really relax and at the same time she are doing wonders with your body.

More than worth it

Eileen is the most wonderful woman living in her own little lovely place at the water. I went to get a massage ($50,- p/h). It was an amazing experience and i would recommend anybody to go here! It is a short walk (10 minuts) from the docks.

Amazing massage and company!
Jul 2017 • Solo
Booking a massage was easy. Elaine was a delight and so fun to talk to! The massage was so relaxing and the environment was soothing and beautiful. She gave me a great massage for a great price and afterwards we stayed talking and realized we had so much in common, including we're both Denverites! It was a complete joy to get a massage from her. There was also a great scenic waiting area for my husband to wait.

Six Reasons to Get a Massage Here
Jul 2017 • Friends
Highly recommend this spot for a massage while visiting Lake Atitlan.

Here is why:

1. It is not a traditional spa
The massage takes place outside in a hut on a beautiful property on the lake (in Santa Cruz.)

2. The owner, Elaine, is a world class massage therapist. She rocks and will give you the massage of your life.

3. The sounds of the lake echo in the background during the massage. It's mystical.

4. The owner has two sweet dogs who make sure you are kept company while you wait for her to call you.

5. Two hammocks await your arrival post massage.

6. It's 50 dollars + tip for an hour! Can't beat that!

I stumbled upon this property as I was walking by and really wanted a massage. My schedule was a bit unorganized but Elaine made time to fit me in and was very accommodating.

The hut was right next to the water. The sounds were extremely peaceful. I booked an hour massage and Elaine asked if it was ok if she went a little bit longer (which never happens and made me incredibly happy) The massage itself was one of the best I have ever received. I loved the entire experience and highly recommend anyone to get a massage by this lovely woman. The price point is also very reasonable.

Nice Location, Friendly People
Aug 2016 • Solo
The massage was good and everyone was friendly. I love the location right on the lake. It's a good activity if you're in the area. It's not a bad walk if you're staying at the Iguana or any of the places near the main boat dock.
