You and a guest will sample three spectacular Inkaterra hotels over five-nights in the heart of Peru. Acknowledged by the United Nations as the world’s first “Climate Positive” hotel brand, Inkaterra is 100% carbon neutral.
In addition, enjoy dinner at the posh-yet-rustic Chicha Cusco next to the landmark Plaza de Armas in Cusco.
Inkaterra Hacienda Urubamba
Hacienda Urubamba is a contemporary hacienda-style 5-star hotel in the Sacred Valley of the Incas between Cusco and Machu Picchu. It covers nearly 100 acres and is surrounded by imposing green mountains. Rooms feature breathtaking views of the valley, and the interiors are inspired by the area’s cultural history showcasing authentic Inca masks and handcrafted woodwork.
Inkaterra La Casona
The first 5-star boutique hotel in Cusco, La Casona is in the traditional Plaza de las Nazarenas, surrounded by vibrant, cobblestoned streets. The 16th century manor house stands on the training grounds for an elite army of Incas and counts Spanish Conquistador Diego de Almagro and Simón Bolívar among its illustrious guests. Surrounding the main patio, 11 suites feature heated floors and extra-large bathtubs. Its halls are decorated with Pre-Columbian textiles and original murals. The Yacu therapy room offers bespoke treatments and, like the manor’s dining room, uses local products.
Inkaterra Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel
Popular with those heading to the ancient citadel of Machu Picchu, the 5-star Machu Picchu Pueblo Hotel is in an intimate Andean village with terraced hills, waterfalls, stone pathways and 83 whitewashed adobe casitas tucked away in the cloud forest. The property has 12 acres of exquisite natural beauty, home to 214 bird species and the world’s largest native orchid collection. Guests can enjoy the Unu Spa which uses natural products derived from local botanical extracts (mint, eucalyptus, and orchids). The first-class restaurant features stunning views of Vilcanota River and shares the secrets of Peruvian cuisine with a contemporary twist.
Dinner at Chicha Cusco
The empire of Peruvian wonder-chef Gaston Acurio stretches further than the Inca civilization ever did. His Cusco restaurant is located within easy walking distance of the landmark Plaza de Armas, on the second floor of a centuries-old, whitewashed house with blue painted balconies overlooking the fountains of Plaza de Regocijos. The menu is based on age-old recipes made from local ingredients.
