★★★★★ · Urubamba

Surrounded by green mountains in the Sacred Valley, the hotel follows the style of a contemporary hacienda, with stand-alone casitas and suites in the Casa Hacienda. It sits between Cusco and Machu Picchu, at lower altitude than Cusco, which helps with acclimatization at the start of the trip.

The property runs on an Earth to Table concept: it has an organic plantation growing quinoa, giant Urubamba corn, medicinal herbs and native potatoes, and guests can take part in the harvest. The Mayu spa adds a plunge pool, four private therapy rooms and a dry sauna.

The casitas include twin or king beds, pima cotton linens, a down duvet and a dining area for two, with valley views. A choice for travellers seeking calm and contact with the Andean surroundings, with a comfortable base to visit Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu.
