Aqua Antigua — Restaurant in Sacatepéquez

A Must-Visit Gem in Antigua

During our recent visit to Antigua Guatemala, we had the pleasure of dining at Aqua Antigua, and it truly was an unforgettable experience. Nestled conveniently close to our hotel, this restaurant and bar exudes a charm that is elegant and inviting.

From the moment we stepped inside, we were captivated with exquisite, thoughtful details that set the tone for a very special evening. The ambiance is romantically lit by candlelight, enhancing the already cozy and sophisticated decor. They even have thought of handy table-side handbag valets.

A major highlight of Aqua Antigua is its upper terrace, which offers a stunning view of the sunset against the backdrop of Antigua’s majestic volcanoes. It’s the perfect spot to relax with good company and a drink to soak in the breathtaking scenery.

Once we found Aqua, we returned several times during our stay. Each time, we found every meal to be superb, with each dish showcasing local flavors and ingredients at their finest. (They even had gluten free noodles for their Alfredo with shrimp entrée - what a treat!)

Aqua is also perfect for a day of relaxing or working remotely from their cozy poolside cabanas.

The staff is incredibly kind, attentive and went above and beyond to ensure our visits were perfect.

So, for anyone visiting Antigua, a visit to Aqua Antigua is a must. It’s an experience that captures the essence of this beautiful city. Highly recommend and can’t wait to...

During our recent stay in Antigua, we sought recommendations from our hotel concierge for an exceptional dining experience. Without hesitation, she suggested Aqua, and we're thrilled to report that her endorsement was spot on.

From the moment we arrived, we were impressed by Aqua's elegant ambiance, which perfectly complemented the restaurant's exquisite cuisine. The menu offered a diverse range of dishes, each expertly prepared and presented. We were delighted by the flavors, textures, and aromas of every dish we ordered.

The service was attentive, knowledgeable, and friendly, with our server happily guiding us through the menu and making recommendations. The background music and picturesque pool setting added to the restaurant's sophistication and charm.

Our entire group was thoroughly impressed with Aqua, and we're already planning our return visit in June. If you're seeking a refined and enjoyable dining experience in Antigua, look no further than Aqua. This exceptional restaurant truly embodies the essence of fine dining.

Highly recommended for a classy and memorable...

We are so grateful to have stumbled upon Aqua Antigua when we arrived a few days before New Year - despite the sit down meal options having sold out, there were still entry passes available for the night and we were given a wonderful overview by one of the main staff members, who happily talked us through the events of the night and what we could expect if we came along. However, he didn't try to push us into buying a ticket there and then, and encouraged us to look around at other options if we wanted to, with the assurance we could buy entry tickets on the night itself. After looking around the space we were certain we wanted to come back, as it is GORGEOUS. A patio, a terrace, a pool, and a wonderful ambiance awaited us. The NYE party was exceptional - classy, fun, and definitely worth going to. We also met the owners who are lovely, wonderful people who clearly have a passion for the space they have created - they also introduced us to Carajillo's and for that we are eternally thankful!

Definitely a place to go if you are...
