RIO SAGRADO, A BELMOND HOTEL

A sanctuary between the mountains and the river

Long before reaching Machu Picchu, many travellers fall in love with the Sacred Valley.

Set along the banks of the Urubamba River, Rio Sagrado offers a gentler, quieter way to experience this extraordinary region. Surrounded by gardens, flowing water and towering Andean peaks, the property feels less like a hotel and more like a private retreat immersed in nature.

The atmosphere is peaceful and restorative. Stone pathways wind through lush grounds, hummingbirds move between flowers and the constant sound of the river creates a sense of calm that accompanies every moment of the stay.

Days can be spent exploring nearby archaeological sites, traditional villages and mountain landscapes before returning to the comfort of the lodge. Evenings unfold beside outdoor fire pits, beneath star-filled skies and surrounded by the tranquillity that defines the Sacred Valley.
