DESTINATIONS CENTRAL & SOUTH AMERICA A view of the terrace at Posada del Angel, where guests can enjoy breakfast ANTIGUA Guatemala City’s historic buildings make for unique accommodations LA ANTIGUA IS THE JEWEL in Guatemala’s crown, a little gem with low colonial houses, ancient churches and treelined squares famous for its very elaborate religious celebrations during Lent, which lead up to Holy Week and Easter. Located in a highland valley at 4,921 feet and overlooked by the spectacular 12,352foot Agua volcano (a little further away are two other volcanoes, the Acatenango and the always smoking, sometimes erupting Fuego), Antigua is a town to be discovered on foot as the pastel-colored facades of this UNESCO World Heritage site conceal endless hidden delights. Inside the old stone doorways there are shops selling jewelry in precious Guatemalan jade, artisan shops with handmade bags and fashions, colorful cafés and restaurants. And the colonial 22 | TravelAgent March 2, 2009 BY PAMELA MCCOURT architecture, bright blue skies and three volcanoes on the horizon ensure that camera-happy visitors will go home with really great photos. Where to Stay The Posada del Angel (www.posadadel angel.com) was founded by the late Mary Sue Morris, who said Antigua was “as close to Nirvana as you can get.” The Posada’s tall, faded-turquoise timber door, a few blocks from the main square, conceals a tiny courtyard and a lush patio with a long solar-heated mosaic plunge pool and a gracious living room with couches, low tables and a fireplace. The ground floor has four bedrooms. In the Maya Room, which is the smallest and only room without a fireplace, there is a queen-size bed and a bathroom with a large shower. The Mary Sue Suite has a spacious living area, queen-size canopy bed, Jacuzzi bathtub and small courtyard. We recommend the top-floor Rose Suite where President Bill Clinton stayed in 1999. This accommodation boasts a theatrical bathroom with statues in niches, a huge Jacuzzi and a private decked section of the rooftop terrace with stunning views of volcanoes, old churches and rooftops. Owner and General Manager Alicia Balzaretti (alicia@posadadelangel.com, 502-5551-0976) says to book two to three months in advance, but at least a year ahead for Easter week. Note: There is a no-kids policy. Head Concierge Anibal Garcia (elangel@posadadelangel.com, 502-78320260) arranges personalized walking tours http://www.posadadelangel.com http://www.posadadelangel.com
