Two More Top Peru Boutique Hotels

Peru is fortunate to have many options for hotels from really cheap backpacker hostels to 5 star luxury hotels. It also has some boutique types of offerings that provide something a little more special than the typical experience.

Taking advantage of one of these boutique Peru hotels can transform what is already an incredible vacation into a trip of a lifetime.

Suasi Lodge, Lake Titicaca

Lake Titicaca is beautiful and definitely a must-see location in Peru. However, it can feel a bit touristy at times, taking some of the romance out of the trip. One way to avoid that is to overnight at Suasi Lodge on Isla Suasi, the only privately owned island in the lake.

Because it's privately owned, the island can be kept unspoiled. The hotel itself is an ecolodge, solar-powered and committed to working in tandem the environment. It is designed with native materials so that it blends in beautifully with its surroundings.

This is an ideal location for retreating from the hustle and bustle and imagining what life must have been like here hundreds of years ago. One can walk around the island with a guide to point out the various native plants, birds and animals, including wild vicuñas. Or enjoy the water by going boating or paddling around the island in a canoe.

When you get back to the lodge, you can play in the game room, go for a relaxing massage and sauna or indulge in the gourmet restaurant and bar. Or relax in your luxurious room, all of which offer lakeside views, chimneys and down comforters. A two bedroom suite, the Andean Cottage, has its own private beach with lounge chairs, dock and terrace deck. Dinner can be served in the privacy of the cottage if so desired.

Las Casitas del Colca, Colca Canyon

Most tours to Colca Canyon have you staying over night in Colca so that you have the best chance of seeing condors in the morning. Some tours go from Arequipa and back while go between Arequipa and Puno. Alternatively, you might just decide to make your own plans and spend more than a single night, especially if you choose Las Casitas del Colca for your lodging.

The rooms are actually private casitas, or little houses, where you can relax in privacy. Each are made from natural materials and feature heating under the floors, a fireplace, private terrace, lounge area and plunge pool. Bathrooms feature indoor and outdoor showers as well as a bathtub situated under a roof of glass so you can relax under the stars. Combined casitas are available for families or groups.

A real treasure here, apart from the ample opportunities to walk through nature and possibly see condors flying overhead, is the spa. Just next to the outdoor swimming pool, the hotel spa features treatment rooms as well as a sauna. There is also a treatment suite perfect for couple's massages that includes a soaking tub. Choose from a wide range of services that use indigenous products, some of which come from the hotel's very own herb garden.
