CHARMING HOTEL HOUSED IN A CONVERTED COLONIAL HOME
A lovingly restored colonial mansion, Meson de Maria offers just 20 characterful guestrooms in the historic heart of Antigua.
Warm earthy tones, rustic wooden furnishings and beautifully decorated bathrooms (complete with hand painted tiles) create an inviting ambience in each of the hotel’s individually decorated guestrooms. Away from your room, you’ll find many areas to relax in around the property from the lushly planted courtyards to the elegant salons and fabulous roof terrace overlooking the Agua, Fuego and Acatenango volcanoes.
Breakfast is enjoyed on-site, and you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to lunch and dinner with plenty of superb eateries within walking distance.
With the main street and plaza just steps away, Meson de Maria is perfectly located for experiencing all historic Antigua has to offer. Art studios, boutique shops and the artisanal market – where you can browse locally made Guatemalan crafts and textiles – are right on your doorstep. For those seeking adventure a little further afield, the hotel’s staff can arrange for you to enjoy a variety of activities such as hiking up volcanoes, canopying through coffee fields and swimming in beautiful lakes.

Jonny took the time to discuss all the options with us and tailored every detail to our wishes. He suggested thoughtful add-ons, arranged excellent guides, and created a brilliant itinerary packed with maps, tips, and all the information we needed for exploring the two countries we visited. An absolute trip of a lifetime to Argentina and Brazil.
The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
