Discover the beauty of Peru while earning points.
Have you dreamed of experiencing Peru through a rewards program? Here’s how to enjoy luxury accommodations with Marriott Bonvoy points while indulging in the elegance of Highgate’s Luxury Collection. Each of these remarkable hotels provides exquisite dining options, rejuvenating spas, thermal circuits, and an extensive “wellness” program. Plus, Pisco Sour tastings are plentiful.
Your journey begins at The Westin Lima Hotel and Convention Center, located in Lima’s vibrant San Isidro business district. With spacious accommodations, it’s an ideal sanctuary between outings to charming neighborhoods like Miraflores, perched above the Pacific and famous for Love Park, and Barranco, known for its lively street art and trendy cafés.
Start your adventure with lunch at Museo Larco, where you can appreciate stunning Peruvian art within a lush garden. Then, head back to The Westin for a fine dining experience at Maras, featuring delectable Peruvian cuisine.
Cusco and the Sacred Valley
As the sun sets on Lima, catch a short flight to Cusco, your entry point to the stunning Sacred Valley and the famed Machu Picchu. Your stay at Tambo del Inka promises an upscale retreat that’s perfect for both culinary enthusiasts and adventurers.
Ollantaytambo offers remarkable Incan ruins, while Moray features ancient agricultural terraces, and the salt mines of Maras add to the allure. Back at Tambo del Inka, mingle with adorable baby alpacas, engage in daily wellness activities, embrace yoga in the garden, or savor a fresh outdoor meal prepared by a private chef.
After immersing yourself in the Sacred Valley, check in at the historic Palacio del Inka. This colonial-style hotel boasts captivating art and intricate details in every room. Dinner at Inti Raymi is a must-try for elevated local cuisine, paired with their signature Pisco Sour tasting. Be sure to witness a traditional Inca ceremony performed by a local descendant, as well as experience a cacao ceremony and sound healing session.
A Stay in Paracas
Following your time in Cusco, take a scenic drive to Hotel Paracas. Nestled on the waterfront with breathtaking views of Paracas National Reserve, this hotel features furnished terraces overlooking gardens or the ocean, with room service impressively delivered by bike. At Hotel Paracas, it’s effortless to explore the waters, or you can rent a private boat from the hotel’s dock to observe local wildlife and take in the stunning views of the landscape.
