Saya Wasi Bed & Breakfast Cusco

At Rela, nestled in the vibrant heart of Cusco, I found myself indulging in a unique blend of comfort and adventure that only traveling with friends can offer. The hotel’s rustic charm, characterized by elegant colonial architecture and cozy communal spaces, created an immediate sense of warmth. As soon as we stepped into the lobby, the inviting aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafted through the air, setting the perfect tone for our journey ahead. We reveled in the beautifully designed rooms, each adorned with local art that reflected the rich cultural tapestry of Cusco, and as night fell, we gathered on the rooftop terrace. The breathtaking views of the Andean peaks under a canopy of stars were the perfect backdrop for laughter and stories, all while savoring our favorite cocktails from the hotel’s bar—a fusion of traditional flavors presented with a modern twist.

Rela also served as the perfect launching pad for our exhilarating excursions into the Sacred Valley and beyond. With the staff's wealth of knowledge about the surrounding areas, we discovered hidden gems and off-the-beaten-path trails that only locals would know. Each day was filled with exploration, from the ancient ruins of Ollantaytambo to the vibrant markets bustling with energy. Returning to the hotel, we shared our adventures over dinner in the on-site restaurant, where the flavors of Peruvian cuisine delighted our senses and reignited our energy for the next day’s escapades. Whether we were lounging in the communal garden, sharing a laugh, or discovering the exquisite details of the hotel's history, every moment at Rela felt enriched by the bonds of friendship, creating memories that will forever linger like the warm glow of Cusco’s evening sky.
