Reviews

Vitali 10/10

Germany 🇩🇪

Pros: Excellent service, food, location. Indeed a very comfortable stay. Special thanks to Wilder, Sambrano and the Lodge management for their kind support.

Moritz 9/10

Germany 🇩🇪

Pros: Super nice stay with friendly team, in Santa Teresa before continuing to aguas calientes. We enjoyed our time there, although it was only one night it felt like a nice retreat. Great breakfast. Free tea and water. Relaxed Chillout area. You can arrange activities with the hotel (we didn't have time but seems easy going).

Cons: Construction is ongoing around, which lasted until 10.30pm in the night and started again at 7am. Not the hosts fault but it's the only thing to complain about. Restaurant was not open unfortunately but we could order from a local restaurant.

Malta 🇲🇹

Authentic local experience in the Andes

Pros: Built on the hilltop, nicely fitted/surrounded by the vegetation. Nice views onto the surrounding mountains, river. Santa Teresa is a small authentic town, without disturbing reates of tourist presense.

Cons: We could not find the place on first try, even our driver got lost. It's on a hilltop, and can be accessed via a narrow steep path, what was not marked clearly.

Laura 10/10

United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Surrounded by stunning nature and tranquility. Comfortable, rustic accommodations that blend seamlessly with the cloud forest setting. The attention to detail of the decor in our room was superb. Fresh breakfast served in a relaxed, communal atmosphere. Warm, attentive staff who go out of their way to make you feel welcome - even when we booked late on the day of arrival which was great. Excellent value for the unique experience and beautiful location. A perfect retreat for nature lovers seeking sustainable comfort in the Sacred Valley.

Cons: Staff asked if we would leave a review and there was a bit of a feeling of 'do it now please'. Minor, but could be improved - asking once and getting a willing \

Germany 🇩🇪

Perfect place to stay, wonderful value for money and even better hosts. Can’t wait to come back!!

Pros: Ruth and Wilder were just great and made us feel incredibly welcome and cared for! Beautiful lodge, a little oasis of calm and peace. Perfect after a busy day visiting Machu Pichu and a very welcome breath of fresh air compared to the very touristy Aguas Calientes.

Cons: Santa Teresa is under construction, so you have a bit of that around but the lodge makes you forget all about it!

Would recommend

Pros: The staff were very accommodating, the hotel was very beautiful. The variety of birds seen during breakfast was incredible it felt like we were in a jungle amongst the trees.

Cons: The shower was a bit cold one day but quite refreshing.

Liana 10/10

Peru 🇵🇪

Pros: We arrived after a 20km hike and were so tired. Wilder greeted us with such kindness and made himself very available and helpful. He made everything easy for us by offering us tea, helping us order food and organising our taxi for the thermal baths in Cocalmayo. The lodge is beautiful and peaceful. I've traveled a lot and this was my favourite accomodation so far: wish I could give 11/10 ! In the morning after breafkast we hung out in the hammacks and read to the sound of the river. I even saw two baby condors and a hummingbird in this magical place.
