Welcome to the remote. Go deeper with Explora.
We believe luxury is about having all the means necessary to make the most out of the experience, such as a cozy, welcoming environment, and authentically local gastronomic experiences.

 

This is why every Explora lodge behaves as a haven of rest and restoration amid the remote – to make sure each day in the territory is lived to the fullest. Count on relaxing massages, bubbling jaccuzis and deep-blue swimming pools, among other first-rate amenities at your service.

Explora in the Sacred Valley of the Incas sits in a fertile valley surrounded by the majestic Andean Mountains. The lodge is located between Cusco and Machu Picchu, surrounded by corn and quinoa plantations over preserved Inca terraces, while its spa was built in the restored Pumacahua Bath House and features centuries-old frescoes, revealing a piece of history as you treat yourself to a moment of self-care.

 

Your journey is crafted as it unfolds. Every evening of your stay, assisted by a Explora guide, you will choose from a variety of exploration options your next day’s experience.

Virgilio Martínez at Explora
An experience that connects with Andean culture.

 

The Peruvian chef Virgilio Martínez, owner of “Central”, the world’s fourth best restaurant according to the ranking The World’s 50 Best Restaurants 2021, designed the menu for Explora in Peru’s Sacred Valley. It is a total culinary renewal aimed at the search for excellence and the rescue of local culture, using Andean ingredients that preparations with an identity that honors Andean cuisine.

The products used in this menu come from nearby locations and with meticulous traceability; not a single ingredient enters the kitchen without its origin being known or having passed through the hands of one of the local farmers with whom we have forged a progressive working relationship in community.
