Inkaterra Machu Picchu
Aguas Calientes, Peru
Why we love it
This charming resting spot before or after a journey to Machu Picchu is built to replicate a traditional Andean village. With the Vilcantota River winding through the gardens and surrounded by endemic cloud forest, this tranquil haven is a fantastic option for adults or families with children.
There are seven categories of cottages ranging from simple one-bedroom homes to Inkaterra Suite with a private garden and heated plunge pool. There is an excellent spa with extensive treatments and a large restaurant with large windows looking over the forest. If you choose to stay here for longer, excellent guides are on standby to take you birdwatching or following the trails of wild orchids.
Take in the spectacular views of the Vilcanota River from the first-class restaurant which offers Peruvian cuisine with a contemporary twist.
Leave Aguas Calientes before dawn; the bus will take you to the top where you can explore the fascinating Machu Picchu. Or if you are feeling active you can hike up to the top from Aguas Calientes. It truly is a once in a lifetime experience, not to be missed.
Unwind in the spa which combines classic nurturing practices with a mystical Andean approach.
Have your eagle eyes at the ready as you wonder through the cloud forest - look out for the 214 bird species which reside here such as the golden-headed quetzal.
