Antigua is a cool town and very safe. Not sure how many from the US are living there vs. simply traveling, but you will find a decent amount of people who speak English, or both Spanish and English. http://antiguaguatemala.unwireme.com/guatemala-expat/

What a nice trip. My father talked about that place and many other countries he was stationed at during WWII. He was in the Army Air Corps flying and bombing German subs from there. Being from Italy he easily learned Spanish and had a great time. Good for you.
