Belmond Las Casitas
Las Casitas is traditional in style and blends unobtrusively into the landscape with a village feel. The swimming pool is built with Colca Valley stone and has amazing views of the Andean terraces. Décor is elegantly simple – the opulence comes from quality rather than extravagant styling, with good use made of natural materials.
Each casita has its own plunge pool, and also an outside shower so you can take in the wondrous views at every moment. If you prefer, you can soak inside in the luxurious marble surrounded bathtub.
Standing out by the pool, or even wandering along the stone walkways between the hotel buildings, you’ll be struck by the incredible vistas of the rugged Andean peaks. Look up and you may see a majestic condor.
With a backdrop of the amazing Colca Valley, a meal in the Curina restaurant is quite an experience; indigenous dishes such as purple corn, spicy peppers, native stews and marinated meats are a speciality. We recommend finishing your meal with local cheese and honey before relaxing in the hotel’s well-stocked library or the Puccq’lo bar.
