Four boutique residences on a private reserve at the base of the volcano — titled, hotel-managed, and earning while you are away.
LAVA sits on a natural reserve at the base of the volcano, on the shore of Lago Atitlán — a crater lake ringed by three volcanoes, 1,562 metres above the sea. There is no road in. You arrive by water.
Six homes step down the escarpment to a private dock — one building, read from the crown to the water. Each is titled, each is finished, and each is run as part of a boutique hotel, so it earns for you in the months you are not there.
The Cube crowns the escarpment. The Lake House sits on the malecón at the water. Between them, three Med Suites and the Petite step down the rock. Read it from the top.
The crown of the complex, on its own plinth above everything else on the reserve. Three levels: a social floor, a bedroom floor, and a terrace with a fire pit and an elevated infinity pool that reads straight out to the volcanoes.
The best value of any villa on the reserve, and the one most people take. Bedrooms below, the whole social floor above, opening onto its own infinity pool and deck. Three of the six homes are Med Suites.
The most minimalist villa in the complex, and the one with the best ratio of view to footprint. A single level: one bedroom, one bathroom, a kitchen and a living room that runs straight out to its own infinity pool and deck.
The most precious unit on the reserve — the only one that touches the water. Built on the malecón, two storeys wide to the lake, with the infinity pool at the same level as the surface behind it. Steps from the dock.
The six homes on the reserve, set out on the rock between the arrival court and the dock.
LAVA promotes each guest's stay through a complete branding solution of in-suite products — comb, dental kit, shower cap, soap, amenities. It is a branded project, not a rental. That is what a guest remembers, and what a nightly rate is built on.
You hold the title. LAVA finances the balance, operates the house as part of the hotel, and applies what it earns against what you owe. Use it yourself whenever you like.
From 25% of the purchase price. The deed to the unit is registered in your name from the start.
LAVA carries the balance in USD — developer-backed, no bank — and runs the house as part of the hotel: bookings, housekeeping, maintenance, guests.
Income from the nights you are not there is applied against what you owe us. Your debt falls while your equity climbs.
Once the balance clears, the income is yours — and you still walk in whenever you want.

Illustrative, not an offer of credit. Rental income is the published nightly rate at the occupancy you set, gross — before operating costs, management fees, taxes and vacancy.
Guests fly into Guatemala City, drive to Panajachel, and cross the water by lancha to the dock. The last ten minutes are on the lake itself, with the volcanoes ahead of you.
