Earth Lodge is located just a few miles outside of Antigua on a 40-acre avocado farm owned by an American and Canadian couple. The views of Antigua and the surrounding volcanoes, coupled with great home-cooked food and an incredibly relaxing atmosphere made it a great place to hang out for a couple of days. Volcan Fuego is pictured in eruption above.
Three dogs and five cats roam the property, although the cats remained much more elusive than the dogs. Pictured in order are Whitie, Chuleta, and Lola. Within an hour of arriving after a very stressful trip there due to not being able to find where the bus left from in Antigua, we ate a giant bowl of home-grown guacamole with tortilla chips, had a free yoga lesson, and steamed out what was left of our stress in their brick-and-mortar sauna.
