EnquireTucked away in a trendy and somewhat bohemian neighbourhood of Lima’s Barranco district is Villa Barranco. This boutique hotel is set on a quiet street in a delightful and charming historic building that dates back to the 1920s and has been lovingly restored over the years. It stands out from other buildings in the immediate area thanks to its pretty blue and white colour scheme, not to mention it’s very well preserved architecture.
There are nine air conditioned rooms set out across three floors. On the ground floor there are four junior suites and two deluxe suites; some of these come with their own private garden. Up on the first floor, there are two more junior suites - each with its own balcony - and the master suite, which not only has a balcony, but also an extensive loft area. Some options offer ocean views, while others look out over the hotel’s beautifully manicured gardens. All rooms are well presented with tranquil decor and a range of convenient amenities including a TV with satellite channels, complimentary toiletries and a hairdryer.
One of the hotel’s most highly rated amenities is its rooftop terrace, a popular spot for guests to gather and unwind, thanks mostly to its captivating Pacific Ocean views. A buffet breakfast is offered every day, with evening meals served in the on-site restaurant with its range of appetising Peruvian dishes. Complimentary tea and coffee is provided in the main communal area. There’s also a free bicycle hire service. There are many attractions in close proximity to the hotel, including a large shopping centre, plenty of public parks, scores of museums and cultural attractions and countless places to eat and drink. The district’s main square, Plaza de Armas, is conveniently just a stone’s throw away.
While there are no designated child facilities or services at the hotel, children are more than welcome and will doubtless enjoy exploring the area with their families.
We had such a good holiday. You did a fantastic job!
The house in Marrakesh was ridiculous. We effectively had it to ourselves. The accommodation was borderline palatial.
I actually think that the time we had in Marrakesh was sufficient. We could potentially have done a day by a pool but I think we’d done enough souk-ing by the end of Day Two.
The hotel in the mountains was a shade more rustic than I was expecting, but all great fun. Stunning views. The guide / mule / cook team were excellent and our guide (Hassan) tailored the treks to our capabilities well. He was superb, and really made an effort with the kids. The second and third day of trekking were particularly good. Such an adventure for the kids.
All the logistics worked seamlessly. Every aspect went like clockwork. Top marks. The advice on tipping was also much appreciated (I hate thinking that I’m getting mugged off or am potentially not giving enough…).
From my seven-year-old son:
I thought it was GREAT. The food was amazing and the culture was very interesting. My favourite bit was scrambling up rocks in the Atlas Mountains.
In retrospect, I’d probably do the trip in reverse. Flopping on the roof terrace after the rigours of the mountains would have been even more satisfying.

We just wanted to thank you for an absolutely amazing holiday. Everything went exactly to plan and we were blown away with the quality of the guides, transport and accommodation. The itinerary was perfect for our family with a great mix of guided and free days and the different destinations complemented each other well. We will definitely be using Tourdust again for our next trip! Particular highlights were the Ha Long Bay cruise, Hanoi, and the morning cycle tour in Siam Reap
