A warm garden suite inspired by the soft colors and cultural symbolism of Guatemala’s calla lilies.
El Cartucho Garden Suite takes its inspiration from the graceful calla lily painting featured by local artist from San Juan la Laguna. This flower is deeply associated with Guatemala’s color and daily life. In markets and village streets across the country, it is a familiar sight to see Indigenous women carrying long, elegant stalks of calla lilies, creating one of the most vibrant and poetic images of Guatemalan culture.
The suite reflects this warmth through soft tones, natural materials, and thoughtful design details. Asian decorative accents, and artisan objects add subtle global character, reflecting the collected aesthetic of Casa Varuna. A charango - the traditional small guitar of the Peruvian Andes - is displayed on the wall as a decorative accent, adding subtle musical presence to the space
A natural wood work table paired with a velvet chair offers a quiet space for reading or light work, while a generous wooden closet provides ample storage for longer stays.
Large Spanish-style windows overlook the lush tropical garden, with long, elegant curtains framing the light and adding softness to the room’s architecture.
A private step out terrace, invites guests to connect to the garden’s tranquil outdoor atmosphere.
The bathroom draws inspiration from the warm, earthy textures of Oaxaca, with natural light filtering through Spanish-style windows, a walk-in shower and thoughtful details designed for comfort and ease.
