Villa Bokéh is a colonial-style hacienda nestled in a 6-acre garden oasis. Secluded enough to offer a peaceful retreat, it benefits from being within a ten-minute drive of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre of Antigua. Originally a private family home belonging to a pair of art lovers – whose exquisite photography, remarkable sculptures and elegant paintings still grace the walls to this day – Villa Bokéh was rehabilitated to an exceptional standard and opened to the public as a luxurious small hotel.

Worthy of the Relais Châteaux status, the interiors feature an inspiring mix of sophisticated architecture, Guatemalan colonial design and modern details with each guest room and suite a unique collaboration between internationally renowned designers Paliare Studio architects and Grupo Alta. Outside, the hotel features the largest garden of any hotel in Antigua. Guests can explore a lush landscape of captivating natural beauty, with tranquil waterfalls, secluded alcoves and paths around a small lake – all the while taking in the sweeping view of the Agua Volcano.

Gastronomy and wellness are of prime importance at Villa Bokéh. Hispano-Mayan healing therapies come together to offer guests the best of both worlds with catered spa treatments to pamper the body and spirit, while the pool area offers the perfect place to take some well-deserved time to oneself. Dining at the hotel is a gourmet fusion of traditional Guatemalan dishes and nouvelle cuisine – featuring organic ingredients from the garden’s farm.
