Living the dream in the Sacred Valley of Peru!
The Mountain View Experience, tucked away in the Sacred Valley, is incredible. This region captures the essence of ancient Incan culture, with rolling green hills, vibrant villages painted in every color imaginable, and ancient ruins straight out of an Indiana Jones movie.
This place is all about relaxation and epic views. It features charming tipi cabins set against the backdrop of the majestic Andes mountains. If you’re looking for elevated camping in the Sacred Valley, you cannot miss this!
Imagine waking up, stepping outside your cabin, and—bam!—a breathtaking panorama greets you. There are also llamas roaming right on the property. Does it get any better? Well—yes, because you can actually feed these llamas straight from the comfort of your jacuzzi!
Plus, the Maras Salt Mines are just a 10-minute drive away.

The drive to The Mountain View Experience was like something you’d see on a postcard. As we cruised the winding roads, the mountains grew more prominent and grander with every turn. Lush green valleys stretched as far as the eye could see, with horses grazing peacefully in the meadows.
Pulling up to The Mountain View Experience was unforgettable. The scenery was unreal—stunning Andes mountains surrounded us, with beautiful valleys in every direction and llamas and alpacas roaming freely.
The Starry Nights
The Mountain View Experience offers unparalleled stargazing opportunities. As the day drew to a close, we watched the sunset disappear behind the mountains, and later, bright stars twinkled above. The sky was so clear it felt like we could see every single star in the universe. Then, we curled up by the fireplace before bed—an experience we’ll never forget!
The Wake-Up
The best part about waking up at The Mountain View Experience wasn’t a fancy alarm clock (spoiler alert: there wasn’t one). Instead, it was the adorable hotel dog greeting us on the porch with a wagging tail—seriously, the cutest way to start the day!
Llama Love Is in the Air!
But the real stars of the show are the llamas! Waking up, walking to the balcony, and seeing a herd of llamas waiting for us was like a dream. We spent the morning soaking in the jacuzzi, surrounded by these gentle giants, and feeding them!

This wasn’t just your average hotel room—it was a whole vibe! The cabin was spacious and decorated with beautiful Andean touches, making it feel cozy and luxurious. The space felt incredibly spacious and inviting, with the coolest feature being the giant windows that stretched from floor to ceiling, allowing us to take in those epic mountain and valley views right from our bed. 
The cabin offered the comfort of a luxury hotel and a connection to nature, making us feel like we were camping in the Sacred Valley.
Staying in an A-frame cabin is a whole new experience. The triangular shape isn’t just cool to look at; it also makes the space feel extra cozy and intimate. The high ceilings provide an airy feel, and the use of natural materials fits perfectly with the mountainous surroundings. Whether we were lounging by the fireplace, soaking in the jacuzzi, or stargazing from the terrace, it was pure bliss!

The Maras Salt Mines (locally known as “Salineras de Maras”) have been used since pre-Incan times. Thousands of small, shallow pools are spread across the hillside, creating a dazzling mosaic that glistens in the sunlight. The salt forms as the water evaporates, leaving behind piles of crystals. This natural process has been ongoing for centuries, with local families maintaining the pools for generations. The salt harvested here is rich in minerals and prized for its health benefits and unique flavor.
