Property Spotlight: Mountain View Experience Peru – An Unforgettable Stay in the Sacred Valley

If you’re looking for a unique hotel in the Sacred Valley of Peru - one that combines dramatic Andean landscapes, meaningful slow travel, and a genuinely once-in-a-lifetime experience - Mountain View Experience Peru deserves a spot at the very top of your itinerary.

This remote Andean retreat is not just a place to sleep. It’s a destination in itself, offering panoramic mountain views, cozy lodge-style rooms, nourishing food, and the most unexpected highlight of all: alpacas that freely roam the property and may even visit your room.

Location: A Remote Sacred Valley Hotel Surrounded by the Andes

Mountain View Experience Peru is located high in the Sacred Valley of the Incas, far from crowds and tourist hubs. Surrounded by rolling hills, rugged mountain peaks, and wide open skies, the setting feels incredibly untouched.

The remote location is intentional, and it’s what makes the experience so special. This is the kind of place where you disconnect completely, slow your pace, and truly absorb the natural beauty of Peru. It works beautifully as a stop while exploring the Sacred Valley beyond Machu Picchu, or as a restorative pause before continuing to higher-altitude destinations like Cusco.

Rooms: Rustic Luxury with Spectacular Mountain Views

The rooms at Mountain View Experience Peru are best described as rustic luxury. Designed to blend into the surrounding landscape, they feel warm, cozy, and thoughtfully curated rather than over-designed.

Inside, you’ll find:

• Comfortable beds with warm Andean textiles

• Spacious layouts with large windows or terraces

• Uninterrupted views of the mountains and valley below

• A peaceful, cocoon-like atmosphere ideal for rest at altitude

The true luxury here isn’t excess—it’s the sense of stillness and immersion in nature.

Amenities & Highlights

This isn’t a resort packed with endless amenities, yet somehow that’s exactly why it works. Mountain View Experience Peru is built around intentional simplicity.

Highlights include:

• Panoramic outdoor areas for sunrise and sunset

• Cozy communal spaces to relax after chilly evenings

• Attentive, personalized service from a genuinely warm team

• A rhythm of life that encourages slowing down and being present

And then there’s the feature that makes this property unforgettable…

The Alpacas: A Once-in-a-Lifetime Sacred Valley Experience

Yes—alpacas may casually wander into your room.

The resident alpacas roam freely around the property, often appearing at your door, outside your window, or lounging nearby as you sip your morning tea or slip into the outdoor hot tub. They’re calm, gentle, and incredibly photogenic, creating moments that feel almost surreal.

This isn’t a staged interaction but it can sometimes feel like a tourist gimmick. But it’s what transforms Mountain View Experience Peru into one of the most unique hotels in Peru.

Food: Comforting, Nourishing, and Perfect for High Altitude

Meals at Mountain View Experience Peru are hearty, warming, and thoughtfully prepared, exactly what you want after a day exploring the Andes.

The food focuses on:

• Comforting dishes suited to cooler temperatures

• Local ingredients and flavors

• Set mealtimes that create a relaxed, communal rhythm

We saw loads of people who chose to come and dine here without staying the night, so that's an option if you would prefer to return to Cusco.

Why Stay at Mountain View Experience Peru?

This is not a hotel for travelers chasing luxury labels or packed itineraries. It’s for those who value experience over excess, and who want to connect deeply with Peru’s landscapes and culture.

That's not to say that that our stay did come without challenges. The property were entertaining multiuple large groups, so others were many times either deprioritised or straight up ignored. While they did apologise for this, I'm willing to overlook this because the alpacas were really that damn cute.
