Take the Kids with You

Shhh! Don’t tell anyone else about this. I am not sure Guatemala wants foreigners to
know this place exists. We did not encounter a single other American when we
were there. It took a third trip to Guatemala and the accompaniment of five
young kids for us to discover an unadvertised, virtually perfect family retreat
in this otherwise alluring country. Although some Americans avoid Guatemala
because of crime and occasional hysterical travel warnings from our our State
Department, we have found the country to be a land of immense fascination,
variety, beauty and friendliness on each of our trips. At any rate, going there
does have to be within a visitor’s tolerance for the advertised risks. Mind you,
we don’t hang out on back streets in Guatemala City at night, nor do we travel
on lonely highways after dark. But we are not alone in the hotels either; many
European and Mexican visitors and quite a few other Americans brave the journey
to delight in the many colorful sites.

This time we ventured forth with our family and had to plan accordingly. We had only eight days to ensure our kids and grandkids sampled the many pleasures we enjoyed on our own previous trips and to build in kid fun as well. We found what turned out to be a spectacular site, namely, a complex of lovely hotels alongside both an amusement park and a water park located in the town of Retalhuleu, a three hour drive west of Guatemala City. The complex belongs to an organization called
IRTRA.
     The legislature in Guatemala passed an ordinance in 1962 to help
businesses offfer recreation to employees. These parks were a product of that
initiative. Now, there is a place where Guatemalan workers can enjoy a
Disneyworld-like vacation with their family for an affordable rate in this
generally poor country. I hope Americans don’t ever crowd out the pleasant,
vacationing workers we met there by taking too much advantage of this nearby
bargain holiday site. For members of IRTRA, a double room in a brand new
building (we had five people in one of our lovely, spacious and spotless rooms)
costs about $40.00 a night. Outsiders pay about three times that amount. Less
expensive but very adequate hotel rooms in other parts of the complex can be had
for less than $50.00 a night even for foreigners. The official name of this
resort is Los Hostales del IRTRA. We stayed in a section of the complex called
Hostal Panajunoj which consists of five separate, attractive hotels built in
styles that range from African to Polynesian to Mayan, each distinctive and
sparkling new. On the site of Los Hostales are also three restaurants (the food
is only fair), four hotel complexes, beautiful flowers and trees, three pools, a
jacuzzi, a mini-golf couse and more.
     As if this alone were not enough for a family getaway, a little train takes you from the complex to to the equally inexpensive amusement park and the excitng waterpark just outside the hotel area. It was Disney-like indeed, except for the absence of long lines, the managable dimensions of the area and the affordable prices. With their entrance ticket for either of the recreational parks, the kids could go on whatever rides they wanted just about as often as they liked. Lots of local visitors come to Xetulul, the amusement park, or to Xocomil, the waterpark, on day trips so the best time to visit is on a weekday when there are fewer Guatemalans and no lines at all.
     While Xocomil features river-like rides and splashing , giant slides with screaming kids spilling down pretty man-made scenery, the amusement
park is also easily worth an entire day with its roller coasters, wild rides and
mild rides, ambitious reproductions of European cities, lots to do and plenty to
eat. An all inclusive entrance ticket (enough rides for anyone) cost $6.00 for
IRTRA members, about twice as much as for visiting kids and $22.00 for other
adults for the day. A full day at each of the two parks and two or three nights
at the hotels makes for a relaxing and very enjoyable time for all family
members.
