Client comments and reviews

Akawanka was in a beautiful setting and the artwork on the walls and round about gave it a distinctive atmosphere and colour. - SF (December 2023)

An interesting and delightful hotel. - JK (January 2023)

We think the Akawanka Lodge was satisfactory and has a very good setting but lacked something for it to be an out of town hotel. After a full days sightseeing we didn't feel like the effort of a special journey into San Agustin but would have preferred easier access to coffee and drinks before dinner. - PC (February 2018)
