The 10 best All-inclusives in Peru, Peru

May 5, 2023 Layne Dawes

From the remoteness of Peru’s Andes Mountains to the unexplored territories of its Amazon rain forest, the country holds a mysticism all its own. It’s the motherland of the Inca civilization and home to Machu Picchu, alpaca products, and more than 4,000 types of native potatoes.

Casa Andina Premium Valle Sagrado Hotel & Villas

The Sacred Valley's most complete hotel: a mountain chalet-styled retreat with panoramic Andes views from every room and every angle. On more than 8 landscaped acres, it breathes an air of tranquility and relaxation. Unique among Sacred Valley hotels - most of which remain isolated in the valley, offering precious little for guests to do - it contains an extraordinary, full-service "Sacred-Spa", a domed Planetarium-&-Observatory for stargazing in the massive Southern-Hemisphere sky, and gourmet restaurant and bar.

I will surely recommend this place to my family & friends.

Rooms are clean, very courteous staff, the front desk, the restaurant servers, the groundskeepers. Andean food was excellent. Very accommodating in arranging taxi service. Not to forget the highlight of our stay, feeding the baby alpacas.

Nice Hotel

Reviewed By brw115

We visited this locale for a night as part of a Globus Tour Group. It is a very modern hotel with a nice little beach situated on a quaint little bay. The views of the Sunset in the evening are spectacular. Other than a noisy wedding party going on outside (perfect for that too) it was a great stay.

Not much more to add that’s already been said. Massages are generic but a good experience. Thermal baths a must. Dinners are a bit tedios after a few days as the lunch menu is the same. Walk to Yanque for a coffee and get a taxi to look around Chivay. Chivay has a lot going on!

Great place to get covid

Reviewed By Mary Ann M

Definitely stay here if you want to get covid as at least 2 people in my group did. There is absolutely no social distancing. The dining room is hundreds of people at once and lunch is a smaller space that is also tight. In addition, for the price of this hotel it was very disappointing to have a room that was only mostly clean and smelled musty. The pool was dirty and the the hot tub wasn't hot. I'd try a different hotel.

Money comes before wildlife

Reviewed By katiepage

(First a word of warning - don’t book Heliconia assuming you won’t have to pay out during tours) We picked heliconia over the other resorts due to its location quite far up the river and away from having the usual tours of just going to the wildlife reserves. We hadn’t realised what a mistake this was at the time. Our truly ‘wild Amazon’ experience was not to be. Unfortunately masses of wildlife are plucked from the Amazon basin every day by locals who eat, export and sell at wet markets. Even further up than we were at heliconia (1.5 hrs up from Iquitos) there was little wildlife to be seen. Instead you’ll see more variety visiting Belen market, sliced cayman, caged birds, cut up sloths, turtles, marine life.. anything and everything the local people can get a buck for. It’s unfair to state that the above is fault of the hotel.. it is not, and the hotel generally is very lovely, clean, organised and good food. ( although both myself and partner contracted bacterial gastroenteritis while there) What I do criticise the hotel for is the tours it offers which seem to exploit the small number of remaining wildlife. I have broken down below my comments on the tour programme 2nights and 3days: Day 1 We visited monkey island where various species of monkeys now reside after being rescued from captivity. This was probably the best part of the programme and was a big relief to see some people working preserve wildlife. After arriving at the lodge and having lunch, we were then told we were going fishing. This on the itinerary we were given said day 2 but we understood tours were interchangeable. Fishing was great fun but bizarrely our tour advised the biggest fish will be kept and cooked later which the fisher will be able to try - alongside winning a bottle of coke. I caught the biggest fish which the guide kept after putting all the others back in the water to live.. but there was no mention of it ever again? I couldn’t understand why they’ve given an expectation and not deliver ? During this tour there was also the opportunity to see pink river dolphins. Which was the main reason my partner wanted to visit the north Iquitos instead of Puerto Maldonado. Unfortunately we were not told of this before leaving the lodge and left all equipment behind as we thought we were just going ‘fishing’. I can’t explain the upset on my partners behalf. Perhaps Heliconia could communicate more effectively. The second day it mainly rained we had an early morning bird watch whereby we saw little and headed back due to the heavy rain. The nature trek through the jungle was very fun (afternoon) and evening we set out to look for wildlife after the sun went down. We only saw a sloth no cayman - presumably all dragged from their habit for the meat. The last day which we kept all hopes riding on turned out to be the absolute worst. We went to an extremely small village to view the giant Lilly pads specifically grown there presumably for tourists. On return we were met by a group of 6ish locals holding a sloth and a Mata mata turtle. The sloth was given to me and I held it. After realising what I was doing and knowing the creature must have been in great discomfort I handed it back as promptly as possible. I felt sick from the realisation that they keep the sloth purely to make money from tourists and I had been a part of it- they asked for money after I handed it back- of course. (Which I didn’t have and needed another couple to bale me out) ushered into a shop where you are expected to buy something, riddled with guilt, I peeped back outside to see the locals dragging the sloth by its front claws along a trail and throwing the turtle on its back laughing. I felt utterly disgusted that I had been involved in contributing to this animal’s treatment. I’ve spent a long time feeling extremely upset with myself. The sloth didn’t even have the chance to run being such a slow moving animal. Afterwards we took a boat to a strange kind of wine/alcohol distillery, we looked into the fermented buckets then sat down at a table to try some of the alcohol. we did not bring local money (didn’t think we needed it on a-all-tours-included-trip) but only had $5 and $20 US dollars. We didn’t like the alcohol and didn’t want to buy it. The guide said if you don’t buy something you must tip, being that we only had $5 we asked how much the smallest bottle of alcohol was, after much confusion regarding price and a long inspection from the distillery owner of the $5 we gave, we reluctantly purchased some strang small bottle of alcohol. The owner huffed at us as though we were a nuisance. Before this day of exploration began the guide told us ‘bring some cash in case you would like to buy something’ what should have been said is ‘you are required to buy things you don’t want’ ‘to enable us to keep the tours we have and please the locals’. All in all I was extremely disappointed that Heliconia still bring their guests to areas where wildlife isn’t protected it’s used for personal gain, Heliconia should know better and if they hope to compete with other lodges which hold a better understanding of conservation, they need to rethink what they currently offer and start to put their influence to good use.

I suggest highest effective Personnel of the Decameron hotel chain visit the Decameron El Pueblo in Lima, Peru not official of the hotel chain but as guess with taking different room prizes, so you can see firsthand the substandard this hotel is. I have stayed in the Decameron hotel in San Andreas. Colombia and a world of different. I have stayed in all-inclusive hotels in Cancun and Punta Cana. Then stay in Decameron El Pueblo was the worst experience so far. If any of you are concerned about the reputation Decameron hotel chain, pleas read the comments in Tripadvisor and take action to raise the standards.

We had the pleasure to stay a night at Kuntur Wassi before our hike in the Colca Canyon. The rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was extensive. The best thing about Kuntur Wassi is their hospitality. The owners and staff are very nice, we could store our luggage for free, we were allowed to take a shower after we returned from our hike and the family even offered us transportation to Chivay. Thank you very much for everything!

Tambopata Research Center

The Tambopata Research Center (TRC) is a comfortable 24 bedroom lodge. Because of its remote location in the uninhabited wilderness, housing stable populations of endangered wildlife, the small scale of its infrastructure and operations and the presence of researchers and naturalist guides, Tambopata Research Center is an excellent headquarters for in-depth explorations of Amazonian nature and wildlife giving you the opportunity of unique wildlife encounters such as 35% chances to see a jaguar, 67% chances to see a troop of spider monkeys and its paradise of scarlet macaws. It is the only one located in a half-hectare clearing in the middle of the uninhabited portion of the Tambopata National Reserve, less than a kilometer from the two world's largest and most diverse macaw clay lick. The Tambopata Research Center is now only 4.5 hours away from Puerto Maldonado taking 1 hour by bus plus 3.5 hours by boat. The experience includes all land and river transportation from /to Puerto Maldonado airport, a set of activities and excursions that you can choose from, all meals and accommodation.

Reviewed By VacationBeachBum

My son, my brother, and I visited TRC in May. We all agreed it was one of the highlights of our trip to Peru. We had an amazing room with an outdoor seating area and an outdoor shower and bathtub. The days can get a little warm, but the nights are cool and we slept well under the mosquito nets. The included food was great and we looked forward to our meals. The bar was a nice spot to sit and wind down after a day of touring/hiking. Jair, our guide, was amazing. He knows the rainforest well and spotted so many animals. He took many pictures for us. it was great getting to know him and the other guests in our group. We had a wonderful time and highly recommend this lodge and company.
