The 2025 MICHELIN Key Hotels: A Guide to the Global Selection

"Machu Picchu has its own Key hotels, but the country's first Three Key is an awe-inspiring 20-acre estate in the Colca Valley. Las Casitas makes this a must-visit destination, a more under-the-radar way to discover the Andes that's by no stretch any less unforgettable." - The MICHELIN Guide

"While Belmond Las Casitas spares nothing in the way of comfort and luxury, it takes great care to ensure that the 20 casitas that dot the side of Colca Canyon don’t distract from the beauty of the surrounding area. Each of the 1,300-square-foot rooms features a fireplace for chilly nights (as well as a hot-water bottle tucked into your bed at turndown), a heated outdoor plunge pool on the terrace (perfect for star-gazing), and a marble bathroom with both an indoor and outdoor shower. There’s also an excellent restaurant on-site, where guests can enjoy inspired Andean cuisine made with ingredients from the resort’s own garden, as well as a bar serving salads and other light dishes. Activities include fishing for dinner in the hotel trout pond, touring the canyon on horseback, bottle-feeding the baby alpacas, walking the trails that crisscross the 59-acre property, or simply keeping an eye out for the area’s giant hummingbirds and Andean condors that float on the thermals."

Las Casitas, A Belmond Hotel (Arequipa, Peru) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"In South America, there’s no contradiction between high adventure and high luxury. Even so, few hotels are up to the standard of Belmond Las Casitas. The location would be impossible to find fault with — the Colca Valley is one of Peru’s natural wonders, a region high in the Andes that’s home to everything from bucolic farmland to active volcanoes and a canyon that’s grander than the Grand. And the hotel is no slouch either: this estate spans twenty acres, one for each of its casitas, resulting in a small-villa luxury experience that would be difficult to top." - Tablet Hotels

It was probably one of the two top hotels we ever stayed at. Everything about this experience was absolutely magnificent and will stay in our memory as one of the best family vacations. The property is exceptionally clean and well taken care of. The staff is courteous and genuinely kind and they truly create an atmosphere of being at home and wanting to stay forever. Our son got lots of love and attention and he still talks about coming back to see Huayra. P.S. There are stunning views of the canyon if you walk down to the end of the property - don’t miss it!

I stayed at Las Casitas for three nights in early November 2025. My stay was nothing short of magical. The grounds are incredible, and the casitas are beautiful and exceedingly cozy. Las Casitas is a very special place, and I feel very fortunate to have gotten to stay there. I hope to return in the not too distant future, but next time I would stay a minimum of five nights just to relax and take in the incredible scenery. The staff here is incredible. Everyone was warm, friendly, and eager to make my stay feel very special. I would like to say a particular thank you to Alheli in the spa, who gives an incredible massage, but who also spent time teaching me about the local people and customs. I would like to extend the same thank you to Juan David, who was an excellent guide on my outing to see the condors. He also accompanied us on our transfer to the Arequipa airport; my friend left her coat behind, which he discovered after we were dropped off at the airport. He came back to the airport to find us and to return my friend's coat, which was so considerate. The one small suggestion I have for Belmond is to replace the mattresses. They are very firm and do not invite one to languish in bed. In comparison, the mattresses at Rio Sagrado were very comfortable and a vast improvement over the ones at Las Casitas.

When I am writing this review, holiday is over and I have finished 3 weeks in Peru back home. ||We stayed in Las Casitas for 8 nights, quite long yes I know, but I have to say, every single day, I enjoyed it so much!||Special thanks to Diego, who was so patient to have mail communication with me for many times, to confirm my itinerary. I’m a detail oriented person and plan obsessive :-) it’s not easy to work with a guest like me I think lol||We used the transfer suggested by hotel, I didn’t expect it’s not only “transfer” as there was not only a driver but also, a guide! I learnt quite a lot from the way airport to hotel. Also it was not the 1st time I’m in Peru, still many things I never heard before. At drop off journey also with the guide who even company us to checkin counter, great service!||Our room (I mean, the house, “casita”) is one of the best within all casitas, I enjoyed every morning sitting in the garden watching the valley, the horses, alpaca, birds. In the evening could have the fireplace in the room, see clearly all stars in the sky. ||Since we didn’t go anywhere else, hotel restaurant covered all our meals! All very good quality ingredients which many of them from hotel garden. Great taste, love the Rocoto Relleno, you must try it if you love spicy food.||And promise me, you must have the Tapay breakfast! It’s something once in a life that you have delicious (with set up even!) breakfast on the canyon view, with condor flying over your head, I don’t know the best way to describe it, but pls, book it with hotel, you can’t miss it!||Since we spent the Xmas time there, Xmas day morning also a nice surprise to meet Santa and with panettone + hot chocolate, so nice. ||Oh and also, you must try horseback ride (mine was to Uyo Uyo), Peruvian horse they are sweet and gentle, a 2-3hr horseback riding with a lot of fun. Attention: DO remember to apply sunscreen to your hand and DO reapply after washing your hands - my lesson, sunburn in high altitude place is not a joke. ||SPA is another place that you have to visit, we had 3 days appointments there and each time I left as a NEW one, such a place for relaxation and rejuvenating. ||Every staff they are kind and friendly, I try to list their name, Elizabeth, Jose, Daniel, everyone that took good care of us during that 8 days, we are so grateful and thank you all so much! Wish everyone a good 2026. ||Hasta la vista!

I need to review this hotel because I think I left a piece of my soul there. Belmond Las Casitas in Peru’s Colca Valley isn’t just a hotel—it’s a whole experience, a slightly magical, slightly surreal, entirely addictive one. Honestly, I’m not convinced I didn’t dream the whole thing.|Picture this: 59 acres (yes, a small kingdom) of lush gardens, misty mountains, and utter silence except for the occasional alpaca casually living its best life. Instead of regular rooms, you get your own casita—a huge, cosy cottage with a fireplace, a giant bathroom, an outdoor shower, and a heated plunge pool that whispers “cancel all responsibilities.”|The staff here? Angels. Actual angels. They tuck hot water bottles into your bed at turndown and leave Belmond treats like you’re some sort of adored aristocrat. Breakfast? Phenomenal. Evening snacks? Delicious. The full restaurant menu looked fantastic too, but honestly, I was far too busy floating through my private-resort fantasy to choose anything else. There’s also a spa, which I tragically didn’t have time to use because I was too busy being obsessed with the pool area overlooking the valley.|Now for the twist:|We were the only two guests in the entire place. Twenty casitas, 59 acres, countless llamas—and just us. It felt like we accidentally rented the whole resort for ourselves without knowing. Imagine an entire team of lovely humans focused solely on keeping you fed, hydrated, relaxed, and emotionally supported. Chef’s-kiss perfection.|And the setting? You’re tucked into the Colca Valley’s emerald folds, a short wander from ancient cliffside colcas and a quick drive to the canyon where condors drift overhead like they own the sky.|Belmond Las Casitas is part luxury hideaway, part Andean fairytale, part “is this real life?”—and now officially my favourite place I’ve ever stayed.|10/10 would absolutely get “accidentally alone” in a luxury canyon resort again.|Also, if anyone knows how to smuggle a baby alpaca in a suitcase… I’m asking for a friend. 🦙

I came with my daughter (13 yo) on a dad-daughter trip. It was fantastic. |Las Casitas is a very cozy hotel with multiple rooms (very spacious and comfortable) and the SERVICE LEVEL is just AMAZING. I stayed 4 nights. I travel extensively around the world. I dont view Casitas as a hotel- its more of a retreat, where you can reenergize, meditate, relax.. while staying in a Belmond a hotel. |Food quality is great. Service level, as i said, amazing. One of the best luxury experiences in had in the Americas or Europe while traveling. |Activities: plenty to do in the Colca Valley. |1. See the Condor fly (remember Condor is the largest flying bird) |2. Go mountain hiking (beware of the altitude, so be acclimatized before you do that)|3. Horse back riding (the views from Achomani are just stunning)|4. Ziplining|5. White-water rafting|6. YES! Spa. There is a great spa at Las Casitas!!!

I highly recommend Las Casitas, the location is fabulous, the cottages are superb and the staff were lovely. We especially enjoyed our breakfast in Tapai and seeing the condors. Only wish we could have stayed longer to make the most of all the activities on offer.

We had a wonderful time at this place.|Room was beautifully decorated with a private heated plunge pool, which we used to relax in.|We fed the baby Alpacas, saw the horse show ( 5 mins), fed the fish and relaxed by the fire with a hot chocolate while listening to some local tales. All of this was included in the room rate.|Then had a wonderful dinner and probably the best dinner we had in Perru on our travels and slept well.|Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices.|As expected at this level of hotel, service was exemplary and as mentioned the only downside was that we could only stay one night due to our itinerary.

Great property, amazing location and service is very very good. Rather small so makes all very friendly. Villas and rooms are big and very comfortable. The property located in one of the best places near Colca Canyon and you can’t get enough of the view. Don’t go there - run!
