📍 Prime Location:
Located in the heart of Pisac, you`re just a few minutes` walk from the food & artisanal markets, top restaurants, best cafés, local shops, and bus stops.

With simple comforts and a relaxed atmosphere, we created this space to feel like a home away from home 💗

My partner and I will be available to answer any questions about the house or the area. We`re happy to share suggestions for activities, local spots, and must-see places in Pisac and the valley.

For more information about the area, check out our guidebook!

You`ll find beautiful mountains to hike, rivers to see, sites and communities to visit, and wonderful lagoons up in the mountains.

The magnificent Intihuatana (The Incan Ruins of Pisac) is a short tuktuk or taxi ride away from town.

You`ll find plenty of medicine ceremonies, yoga sessions, massage sessions, guided hikes and tours, ecstatic dance sessions, kirtan, sound healing, the list goes on... There`s a lot happening in Pisac! You`ll find more info about what you can do, and our favourite places in our guidebook.

In the food market you can buy blended juices of your choice for just 5 soles, and there`s a huge selection of fresh veg, fruit, herbs, fish & meat, as well as general items in the upstairs section.

In town, you`ll also find the biggest artisanal market in the valley, which has an impressive selection of handmade goods, jewellery, carpets, artwork, clothing etc.

There`s a huge selection of restaurants that will suit every budget and taste pallet - you`ll find local dishes, as well as international food like curry, Pizza, Sushi, Vegetarian, Vegan, steak, etc... We`ve shared our favourite places in our guidebook.

The Valley:
Colectivos run all the way along the valley, from Cusco to Ollantaytambo (and beyond!)
It`s the cheapest way to get around the city - and super easy, as `colectivos` pass by every 10 or so minutes and run from early morning til late in the evening.

Pisac:
Travel to Intihuatana (the famous Pisac ruins), the lakes, and beautiful mountain hikes in the Pisac area is easy via a tuk-tuk (called mototaxis in Peru) or local taxi car, both of which you can catch from outside of the Pisac Mercado De Abastos (the main food market). In the house manual you`ll find numbers for our favourite taxis.

Motorcycle Hire:
We also offer Motorcycle hire! It`s available at 40-80 soles per day, please enquire in advance though :)

Parking your car:
There`s a carpark just opposite Mercado de Abastos where you can park your car inexpensively during your stay.

Some things to mention:

- As it`s a ground-floor apartment, there will be occasional sounds from neighbors, and you`ll have to be conscious of when you are and aren`t making a lot of noise.

- We`re quite literally in the heart of town - which comes with its benefits (being close to pretty much everything) and potential downsides - no mountain view and there won`t be absolute silence like you can find up in the mountains.

I personally love living there, and don`t mind a bit of sound considering all the benefits of living in such a central location.

- The windows in the house aren`t the best - in the bedroom, there`s what I`d describe as a light chimney where air and a small amount of light get in (no view though!)
The window in the main living room is large and lets a reasonable amount of light in - but almost directly outside of it (we are based in an alleyway) there`s another building, which certainly lowers the amount of light that enters.
Being in the alley, it`s a quieter house than others in town - with it being quieter though, we get the occasional visitor (both dogs and unfortunately sometimes people) doing their thang in the alley! We`ve put cameras up to try and control it but want you to know in advance!

Also, please keep in mind that since the apartment is facing the alleyway, there isn`t much privacy unless the curtains are closed.

- Here is some guidance so we can assure all of the guests in the building are comfortable:

Quiet hours: please try to keep quiet between 10 pm to 8 am (when other guests are likely to be resting)

Please keep the bathroom & bedroom doors closed as often as possible to keep the noise down for yourself and your neighbors (sound travels through the `light chimney` like crazy!)

-Please note that houses in Pisac don`t have central heating and radiators - so the warmth you might be used to back home likely won`t be possible!

Most people get by just fine by wrapping up when the sun goes down, and the beds are sufficiently warm. But we have a gas heater for those who would like to use one (around 10usd for gas which lasts 1 to 3 weeks depending on usage - there may be some gas on arrival if lucky!)

We ask that you don`t bring in extra electric heaters unless otherwise agreed, as they cost a lot in electricity!
Thanks :)

- Ants make an entry if they find anything in the casa - clean the sides and empty bins regularly to avoid unwanted housemates 😉 this almost always keeps them away, but plz call us right away if they persist!
