OTHER INFORMATION 
THE SPA HOTEL-Hotel Casa Santo Domingo in Antigua, Guatemala, is a distinctive five-star luxury hotel housed within a beautifully restored convent following destruction during an earthquake in 1773. Amidst its serene gardens, you'll find lovely accommodations and an impressive on-site museum brimming with captivating artifacts and historical treasures. Our rooms offer direct access to the spa area, where we can enjoy a more intimate experience, complete with a beautiful pool, jacuzzis, wet and dry saunas, and a sunbathing area. 

MEALS-The rich culinary scene in Antigua, Guatemala is a delicious fusion of traditional Guatemalan flavors and international influences. For dinner, we will visit a few of the many rooftop and garden restaurants for a unique dining experience surrounded by stunning views or lush greenery.

GROUP SIZE-There is a minimum of 5 guests and a maximum of 11 guests. 

TRIP INSURANCE-It is required that you have your own travel insurance policy with adequate medical coverage and emergency evacuation. Depending upon where you live and your age, this usually costs less than $150. Recommendation for an agent is available upon request or you can acquire your own policy.

SAFETY-Antigua is a beautiful and tranquil colonial city known for its rich history, vibrant culture, and lower crime rate compared to larger urban areas like Guatemala City. A driver will be waiting for you at the Guatemala airport to drive you directly to our hotel in Antigua.

As with any travel, general caution and common sense are necessary.
