La Reunion is different from most Antigua Guatemala luxury resorts. It combines a residential zone, a sport club, a golf course and Antigua Guatemala luxury hotels. The architecture is elegant and is able to embrace the colonial feel of Antigua Guatemala. It is a fantastic collaboration between wonders of nature and luxury.
La Reunion Antigua luxury resort has 26 colonial hacienda style suites. Each has a private terrace with an outside pool, Jacuzzi and shower. The suites have relaxing ambiance. There are traditional highly detailed Guatemalan wood crafts and furnishings in each unit. Every unit offer views of the four volcanoes.
The master suites have two queen beds and a bathroom. The Suite Gran class has one king size bed, a living room with an ergonomic chair, and a bathroom. A Golf cart is included with the suites. The golf cart is to be used for transportation to the club house and around the resort. The suites also include an LCD TV, a bar, IPod base and CD player.
La Reunions was originally a coffee plantation. Now it is an example of Antigua Guatemala luxury. There are four imposing volcanoes that frame the Antigua luxury resort. They are Agua, Fuego, Acatenango and Pacaya. Volcanoes and mountains are believed to be full of spirit. They are places that provide purifying and rejuvenating energy. Shamans still perform sacred ceremonies on Guatemalan volcanoes and mountainsides. La Reunion has wonderful scenic views of the volcanoes.
La Reunion has a stunning 18-hole professional golf course, Fuego Maya or Mayan Fire. The golf course offers spectacular views of the Fuego volcano and the Pacific coastline. This is a beautiful place to play golf in Antigua Guatemala. The course is designed to demonstrate similarities between the millenary Mayan calendar and golf.
The Mayan calendar has 18 20-day months with an extra period of five days. The first nine holes are connected to the first nine months. In the Mayan calendar the first nine months follow the sun moving north. The last nine holes connect with the last nine months following the sun as it travels south. Wayeb, the last five day period is for relaxing and preparing for the journey ahead. Much like the club houses so fondly known as the 19th hole.
Sports fishing on the Pacific is very popular in Guatemala. It is only 40 minutes from La Reunion golf resort to Guatemalas sport fishing marina. There Billfishing Adventures offers fishing tours or angling adventures. An exhilarating chance to catch sailfish, blue marlin, Dorado, tuna and all varieties of marine life.

La Reunion Antigua Guatemala luxury resort offers the opportunity to combine a golf vacation with sports fishing.
