The house
InkaterraAndean hillside hacienda
Vast glass walls and roaring hearths anchor the main house, where sweet eucalyptus smoke drifts across the high Andean estate.
“The lodge, on 100 rolling-green acres and with its own onsite organic farm, is more the home of a friend than a hotel.”
What it’s good at
Remarkable
Wood-burning fireplaces warm standalone casitas, with personal guides across the Andean estate.
Remarkable
Twilight mountain walks and chicha-making demonstrations ground the hillside estate in the valley.

What they say
Two Michelin Keys
Michelin
Also in Condé Nast Traveler.
The rooms are unpretentiously styled, paying their respects to local craftsmanship and decoration, and their comforts are discreet, though high-end.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Tucked above Urubamba village between Cusco and Machu Picchu, the hillside estate offers quiet hiking trails through native Andean forest.
The rooms
Standalone casitas and hacienda rooms feature heated floors, baby alpaca blankets, and wood-burning chimneys framing panoramic views across the valley.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The sauna
A timber dry sauna sits inside an earthen dome, heated from the center beneath curved wooden benches.
The spa
Therapy rooms overlook the valley at Mayu Spa, where treatments use medicinal herbs picked from the terraced garden.
The Bar & Lounge
Stone colonial arches look out over green slopes at the bar, which mixes house pisco sours under timber beams.
Restaurant
Dining Room & Terrace
Cartwheel chandeliers hang above tables serving heirloom potatoes, giant corn, and quinoa grown on the estate.
How it began

Designer Denise Guislain curated the interiors with regional folk art, colonial antiques, and pre-Columbian masks sourced throughout the Sacred Valley.
