Nazca Hotel: Cantayo Spa & Resort

Less than 2 miles from the center of Nazca and near the famous Nazca Lines, Hotel Cantayo Spa & Resort feels like a luxurious oasis a million miles away—an illusion guests tend to appreciate. If you can tear yourself away from the impressive grounds, you will find the beautiful pampas of Nazca, Cerro Blanco, and the pre-Columbian Cantalloc aqueducts just a few minutes away. The beautiful Peruvian coastline is only an hour from the hotel, which makes for an easy and pleasant daytrip.

Description

This oasis hideaway encompasses 30 acres of fertile land with 700 fruit trees, a large pool, and a variety of animals. Wander through the orchards picking pomegranates, pears, bananas, and cherimoya—all complimentary for guests—before mingling with peacocks, ostriches, llamas, and the famous Peruvian Paso horses. After a dip in the pool, wander into the lovely gift shop where you can browse organic gourmet delights like homemade marmalades and legumes preserved in extra virgin olive oil—all products made from ingredients grown in the hotel’s gardens.

If you need to do business during your Peru vacation, Hotel Cantayo Spa & Resort features the Pagoda: a large conference center that can easily accommodate up to 120 people and boasts high-speed Internet and audio-visual equipment.

After a long day of sightseeing, relax in Hotel Cantayo’s lovely spa, which offers a variety of treatments including therapeutic hydro-massages as well as meditation and yoga. The elegant on-site restaurant at Hotel Cantayo Spa & Resort serves traditional Peruvian dishes and international fare using organic fruits and vegetables from their fertile grounds.

Room Amenities

The large estate includes 40 elegantly decorated rooms that range from standard, to executive, to suite accommodations. Standard rooms come with air conditioning, a minibar, telephone, and safe, while executive rooms and suites include Internet facilities. Some rooms are prepared to accommodate those with physical disabilities.

In keeping with the peaceful desert oasis theme and emphasis on enjoying the natural world, this large resort does not have television sets. However, with so many activities available at the resort and the neighboring attractions, travelers shouldn’t mind.
