Erika’s villas are beautiful and her staff are all incredibly helpful. My husband & I stayed for 3 days in one of the Mountain View rooms during our honeymoon. The bed and pillows were super comfortable, and there is the option of home cooked food for every meal if desired. The views are incredible of the mountains, and it is a very short, pretty walk down the road to a nearby supermarket, passing by flowers and farms and different buildings. It takes less than 10 mins to walk down the hill and there are restaurants and cafe nearby that are delicious (like Alto café!) I heartily disagree with the previous reviewer who claimed it was “so far” from everything— this is simply not true. And if you prefer not to walk, Erika is very happy to schedule rides for you.||||The food at UnuWasi is also delicious, we had yummy infusions and teas, and trout with native potatoes-- todos perfectos. The rooms have TVs and you can log in to your Netflix or Amazon prime. There is a jacuzzi and hammocks to lounge in, and beautiful grassy spaces. There is even laundry service for a fee.||||I truly cannot say enough positive things about the attentiveness of our hosts. I got a bit of a stomach bug before coming to UnuWasi, and Erika went out to get bismutol for me, and made special plain pasta during the days I could not eat more interesting food. ||||||We learned that Erika designed the buildings and supervised the build of the whole resort. I hope more people come to stay here, it is truly a labor of love and we felt...
Read moreMy four week stay at Unu Wasi Hotel & Bungalows in Sacred Valley surpassed all my expectations of a “magical journey” to Peru. I was fortunate to discover such a beautiful location nestled between majestic mountain peaks, overlooking a valley just outside of Calca. The quiet but central location allowed day trips back to Pisac and Cusco, or in the other direction through Urubamba to Ollantaytambo and Machu Picchu. While all that makes this a perfect “home base” for exploring the “magic” of Peru. What was even more of a reason for me to recommend Unu Wasi Hotel & Bungalows, was how Erika the owner did everything she could to make sure I enjoyed my stay in her piece of paradise. Every morning I looked forward to being greeted by the smiles of Erika and her sister Julie, as I enjoyed a delicious and healthy breakfast that they prepared from fresh local fruits, grains, eggs and breads. Unu Wasi Hotel & Bungalows boasts a complete menu for breakfast, lunch and dinner, all freshly prepared. Erika is always busy paying attention to details with the eye of a designer. An amazing location for a destination wedding, and I saw how Erika coordinated one with ease. Above everything it was how I felt during my four week stay. I felt like I was family. That is the reason I will continue to recommend Unu Wasi Hotel & Bungalows and look forward to a return visit. Hopefully, not having to rely on Google Translate as much having learned...
Read morePros: The bungalow were in an excellent position in the Sacred Valley surrounded by beautiful mountains with a easy walk to the waterfall. The grounds were neat and tidy and obviously well maintained. Cons: the bungalow are isolated and a bus or taxi is required to have lunch and dinner The rooms whilst clean and tide were smallish. Suitcases for 2 people had to be placed on the floor and were continual trip hazards. Our quoted price per unit was $80 US/ Night. Upon leaving we were told it was $80 US / person. We showed them the email we received for $80US / night which we paid after some discussion. Upon leaving, our bill included an additional cost of $30US for a small face towel that they claimed was damaged with face makeup. I asked to inspect the towel and when finally receiving it, I took it and within 3 minutes I had it clean (to their satisfaction) by using soap. They then stated a bath towel was also damaged but they could not produce it. Overall, the stay was pleasant but the attempt to rip us off at the end left a very poor impression of the accommodation. If you stay there...
