Utopia Eco Hotel

We're located about 285 Km from Guatemala City. 11 Km from Lanquin and in the Valley of Semuc Champey approx. 3.5 Km from Semuc Champey National Park, one of Guatemala’s hidden treasures. We have about 220 meters of River Frontage along the Cahabón River.
Here is where you will be able to do as much or as little as you like. We are a Family Friendly, Dog Friendly Eco Hotel with a vegetarian Restaurant. Situated on the Cahabón River, which is great for tubing or just relaxing on one of the large river rocks or take a short stroll down the path to the big swimming hole. You will find your home away from home nestled amongst exotic flora and fauna with at least 90 different species of birds to watch while your strolling along the many paths that have been cut though the wild flowers, coffee and cocoa trees. Utopia offers unique natural lodge style accommodation with custom one of a kind art work and furnishing.

You will be living in a remote place in the jungle with a handful of other volunteers, the management and a dozen local workers from the surrounding mayan villages. The atmosphere between the staff is very familiar. Every volunteer gets the chance to put his ideas into the steadily growing Utopia. You can put yourself into it as much or as little as you like. Feel free to participate in gardening, yoga, sports, hiking and many more...

For a first time volunteering experience I couldn't get any better!
The place is amazing for nature lovers and minimalists, it is literally in the middle of a wild and beautiful jungle. Pia the host is wonderful, friendly and funny, you cant get better than her, I'm sure of it. The managers are supportive and friendly as well (Belen is the best though).
Unfortunately I had to cut short my stay and leave unexpectedly in a rush due to my sister's hospitalization in another land. The team supported me throughout, cared and aided as they could. I am forever grateful to them. Utopia is a family!

We loved having Moa here as a volunteer. We will miss her in the team! She was there for our guests, fulfilled all the tasks we gave her and always helped when needed. We are happy to recommend her as a reliable volunteer.

Utopia really is a magical place! In the middle of nature, you have plenty of time to unwind and find yourself again. Pia is an incredibly great employer. All the volunteers who were there when I was there were totally welcoming such sweethearts.
I worked in the kitchen and therefore had a lot of contact with the locals from Guatemala. I had to get used to it at the beginning, as my Spanish skills were weak and the women were more cheeky than welcoming. However, once you had won them over, it was really pleasant and fun to work with them.
The work-life balance is fair. Big recommendation!

You are truely having an off grid jungle experience at utopia but it is very peaceful and bliss most of time.

You are immersed in nature, it’s truly a raw experience, getting to know the locals really makes this trip unique. The staff really make it though, living side by side in the middle of nowhere, you quite easily become a little family. :)
Pia the owner has a great sense of humor, and is involved with the place everyday.
The breakfast is unmatched, we looked forward to waking up everyday for this.
Semuc is beautiful an we highly recommend check this place out!
