2. Skylodge Adventure Suites

Eco-Lodge

If waking up in a capsule suspended 1,300ft (400m) in the air and attached to the side of a mountain sounds like the perfect start to your morning, the thrill-seeking experience at Skylodge Adventure Suites is the right Sacred Valley accommodation for you. Your adventure begins immediately upon arrival at the base of the mountain. Staring at the cliff-hanging Skylodge, guests are equipped with a safety harness to begin a vertical climb to their bedrooms.

All luxury pods have an exclusive 300-degree view of the majestic lush Urubamba Valley below and come equipped with an en-suite bathroom, solar panel lighting, privacy curtains and comfortable bedding. Before departure, enjoy breakfast in bed before zip-lining down the mountain.
