Nous recommandons.
- Julian (10/5): The perfect place to stay during the Salkantay Trek - Bathroom was private and large. Water was hot. Staff was friendly. Beds were comfortable enough for a hiker. Room could have been slightly larger but overall great stay.

- Lynn (10/5): Paradise - A real paradise on the Salkantay trek! The room was big and clean, with a hot shower and a comfy bed. Food was one of the best we've had on the trip and they even prepared a vegan dinner for us with rice, lots of veggies and yummy avocado. But the real highlight was the beautiful garden, full flowers and birds. I wish I could have stayed longer!
- Théo (10/5): We would have loved to stay longer! - Magical place in a very quiet and beautiful surroundings
Very welcoming hosts

- maite (10/5): - Todo muy bien, los dueños excelente, lugar muy limpio, la comida genial y muy atentos
- Tabea (10/5): Wunderschöner Aufenthalt in einem kleinen Paradies - Du beste Unterkunft auf unserem Salkantay Trek. Wunderschöner Garten mit bunten Blumen, die Kolibris anziehen, Obstbäume und Kaffepflanzen. Von ein ganz tollen Familie, die super aufmerksam ist. Die kaffetour war wahnsinnig spannend und das essen einfach nur der Hammer. Wir wären am liebsten noch länger geblieben! Nichts, alles war top!!
- Eva (10/5): - TODO GENIAL. El mejor alojamiento de todo el Salkantay Trek. Nuestra habitación tenia vistas al jardin con muchas aves y colibris, al cafetal y a la montaña. La habitación super grande y cómoda, con baño privado y ducha caliente (cuando va la luz en el pueblo).
Julio y su familia nos recibieron de forma excelente. Cuesta un poco llegar al alojamiento (es facil saltarte el caminito que te lleva), pero nos ayudaron a llegar.
La comida super rica, opciones veganas y vegetarianas. El café lo cultivan ellos y está buenisimo, al igual que las paltas.
Al irnos también nos dieron consejos e indicaciones para la ruta del dia.
Perfecto.
- Louise (10/5): -
- Agustina (10/5): Hermoso alojamiento - Es un lugar hermoso, muy acogedor, atendido por sus propios dueños, los cuales fueron muy atentos y predispuestos para lo que sea.

- Samira (10/5): Ein einmaliges Erlebnis, unbedingt eine Nacht dort verbringen! - Die Lucmamba Lodge ist einzigartig!
Die beste Unterkunft auf dem Salkantay-Trek. Etwas versteckt am Hang, dafür einmalig: Ein wunderschöner Garten mit schönen Pflanzen und Kolibris, sowie eine Kaffeeplantage umgeben die Unterkunft.
Die Lodge ist mit viel Liebe gemacht, die Zimmer sind sehr gemütlich eingerichtet und die Familie ist superlieb.
Wir hatten eine gratis Tour durch die Kaffeeplantage und wurden mit einem sehr guten Nachtessen versorgt.
- Elias (10/5): Paradies mit top Zimmern, leckerem Essen und einem super netten Host - Einfach nur WOW! Ein richtiges Paradies. Julio und seine Familie sind einfach so herzlich und nett.

Ich würde sofort für längere Zeit wieder kommen Absolut gar nichts!!

- Erik (9/5): Perfect stop to rest & recharge on the Salkantay. - Perfect location on the Salkantay trek. Warm showers, wifi, green surroundings, good beds. Lovely owners who went out of their way to help and understand us (even though our Spanish was poor).
The food was great, and the coffee (from their own plantation) even better. We arrived early and the owners even invited us for some healthy avocado snacks.
- Louise (10/5): -

Donc super aidants
- Anaïs (10/5): -
- Beatris (10/5): - Nuestra estadía fue maravillosa. Desde el primer momento fuimos recibidos con mucha calidez y atención. Lo que más nos sorprendió fue el cuidado especial que tuvieron con nuestros hijos, siempre pendientes de que se sintieran cómodos y felices. Además, el café que ofrecen es increíble, sin duda un detalle que hizo la experiencia aún mejor. La atención en general fue impecable y nos hizo sentir como en casa. ¡Un lugar totalmente recomendable y al que queremos volver!

- Guest (10/5): MEJOR ALOJAMIENTO SALKANTAY TREK - Alicia y Julio han sido los mejores hosts que hemos tenido en mucho tiempo. Son el claro ejemplo de que con poco puedes hacer mucho. Se agradece lo limpias que estaban las habitaciones, los baños… también lo aseado que tienen su jardín y lo buena que hacen la comida. Pero sin duda, lo mejor el trato de ellos hacia nosotros, nos han ayudado en todo lo que han podido. Es el mejor alojamiento en el que hemos estado durante el Salkantay Trek. Ojalá habernos quedado un par de noches más. GRACIAS POR LO QUE HACÉIS Y COMO LO HACÉIS ❤️
- Elizabeth (10/5): Excentes instalaciones y mejores anfitriones - Excelentes lodges, amplios, limpios, cómodos, ducha perfecta, cama muy cómoda. Está rodeado de un jardín hermoso y tranquilo. Sus anfitriones son muy amables y predispuestos, te asesoran y ayudan en lo que esté a su alcance. Nos ayudaron con el transporte hasta santa teresa. El desayuno es muy rico y lo sirven a la hora conveniente para el turista. En el lugar hay plantaciones de café y su anfitrión realiza una demostración del proceso de cultivo Me gusto todo, hubiese deseado pasar mas dias en este lugar
- Ravaglia (10/5): Best stay on our Salkantay trek - Absolutely loved everything about this place – it’s a little piece of country paradise!

- Rory (10/5): Relaxing, Comfortable Family Farm - The nicest room I’ve had in 2.5 weeks in Peru. The hosts are a family who live on a beautiful, serene piece of property where they grow coffee and bring you into the whole experience.
- Joy (10/5): Highly recommended. - This place is a hidden gem — beautifully nestled within a natural coffee farm, with a wonderful and welcoming host family. Nothing.
- Anonymous (10/5): The highlight of my Salkantay Trek! - The owner Julio and his family were the best, they gave us a tour of their coffee farm and made a fire for us at night. He told us about his heritage and important things to know about Machu Picchu. We got to know his family well, including his dog Toby who is so sweet. This was my favorite experience / people I met on the Salkantay Trek. Also, wonderful coffee, strong WiFi and hot showers! You are missing out if you do not stay here.
- Robin (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts were lovely and the facilities too!!
- Olivia (10/5): little piece of paradise - This little piece of paradise was the absolute best way to recharge mid-Salkantay trek. We arrived very tired and left replenished and energised. The homegrown and -roasted coffee and food were great and we even got to try some of the girls’ honey. The owners are incredibly friendly. Thank you!

- Harlan (10/5): Best Accommodation in Peru. A must stop on the Salkantay trek. - We liked everything! It was great to stay with Julio, Alicia, and their family! The food and coffee were tasty! The location is on a coffee, fruit, and vegetable farm, and Julio gave us a tour and served us fresh coffee that we ground. The room was also exceptional! It was spacious, had beautiful word work, and had an attached shower. We also really enjoyed getting to know Julio and playing with their 4 month old puppy, Peluchin!
This was our favorite accommodation of our 2 weeks in Peru, and we felt like family. Thank you to Julio and Alicia for their hospitality! If we ever find ourselves back in this region, we would go out of our way to stay here again. Nothing could have been better
- Gabi (10/5): Exceptional - Really great rooms. The food was also great - you can order sandwiches to takeaway for lunch. Delicious!

- Lee (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daniel (10/5): A great place to stay - What an amazing location. The room was super new and clean, the shower worked so well, and even though we were annoying vegans, the host helped us out and made a great dinner and breakfast. She also got us a ride to the thermal baths which were much needed. Overall a great place with a lot of heart. Tiny little things - maybe more hooks, a screen on the window so we could open it. That’s really it.
- Benedetta (10/5): Amazing family lodge in lush nature and exceptional hosts - I particularly recommend doing the coffee tour! -
- Nicholas (10/5): Beautiful location, good value, private and comfortable rooms - Comfortable beds and good private showers and toilet. The location was beautiful with a nice sitting area.

- Wing-yee (9/5): Good WiFi, hot showers, best food on the trail. - Stayed here on the Salkantay trek. The rooms were clean and spacious, WiFi was good and showers were hot.
The food was the best we had along the trail. Loads of fresh vegetables from their garden (avocado, yam, plantain) as well as home grown coffee and also somehow the cheapest dinner too. We went for lunch at a burger place down the road and really regretted not just having all our meals at the lodge.
The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. We interrupted their lunch when we arrived but they let us check in immediately and also organised a cab to take us to the hot springs (at a price cheaper than our friends got staying at other locations).
They gave us recommendations for lunch along the trail the next day and also helped us find a hostel in hydroelectrica.
They also had a super cute puppy called toby who entertained us. There’s no location on google maps but just walk up the trail and as you ascend you’ll see a sign (5min up the hill from the bottom)
- Kendal (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were incredible, so nice and helpful. The food was great and everything was clean.
- Koen (10/5): lovely place to stay - right on the trail and relatively easy to find. dinner was cheap here and willing to make it vegan. very helpful people. would probably not book ahead but just show up and shop around next time. i dont know about prices of the many places in the area that are not on the internet.
- Ondrej (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very flexible and accommodating. They fulfilled all our requests and welcomed us with a very service-oriented approach.
- Lucy (8/5): Very good -
- Seán (9/5): Superb -
- Waltteri (10/5): Amazing property with incredibly friendly hosts, delicious food and comfortable rooms :) - Idyllic property, extremely beautiful garden, amazing host family, delicious food, clean and comfortable rooms and overall a perfect experience!
- Yudi (10/5): Exceptional - During our trek on the Salkantay Trail, we spent one night here and it quickly became our favorite spot of the trip. Alicia was a fantastic host—friendly, helpful, and very attentive, making us feel at home. The rooms were clean and very comfortable.
We highly recommend this accommodation and especially appreciated Alicia’s delicious home-cooked dinner and early breakfast, which provided us with the energy we needed. Additionally, she took time to share more about her culture with us. We can’t wait to return and experience more of her wonderful hospitality. :)
