Andean Spirit Lodge

My partner and I lead a yoga retreat at limatambo and everything was absolutely perfect. the property is hard to get to but it is worth it. such a beautiful escape with gardens and walking paths galore. the bungalows have everything you need, the yoga space was lovely, the food was absolutely incredible, and the hosts oda and armando were so kind and accommodating in every way.If you go to peru (which you should), I definitely recommend going to cusco, hiking the inca trail, and spending at least a few days at limatambo guesthouse. such a special place.

Great food lovely location and so very peaceful. Fabulous!The place is remote and off the beaten track..perfect for my stay. Cottages are clean and comfortable... Happy to recommend this lovely place.

This place was nothing short of a dream :) we had no idea what to expect and any expectations we did have it far exceeded them! Oda and Armando were absolutely wonderful beings that took us in and treated us like family. I feel so lucky and blessed to have been able to experience the food, environment, hikes, adventure, conversations , everything ! Words can honestly not express how much this trip meant to me and how it affected me, all I can say is thank you :) xoxo

Its worth experiencing the 1km or so journey by minibus up a rutted dirt track if you want to get to Paradise! Hidden behind the green metal gates of Yoga Limatambo one enters a different world. Oda and Armando, our hosts on a VegiVentures tour, have created a beautiful environment set in a fertile Andean valley within easy reach from Cusco.From the start we were made to feel very much at home being welcomed by staff who couldn't be more helpful. On arrival, Oda took us for a tour of the grounds, up narrow pathways overhung with exotic foliage and flowers bursting with colour; we discovered hidden sculptures and secret seating areas from which the view draws the eye down the valley through patches of ripening corn and beans and half hidden adobe farmhouses.Returning we passed through the orchard where bananas, mangoes and citrus fruit hang from laden branches. Later we experienced the delights of the home grown fruit and organically grown veg in the wholesome and creative meals that were prepared for us by Oda and Armando's skilful in house chef, after which, time to relax on a sofa in front of a fire of blazing wood logs and chat about the day or talk to Oda, who has an in-depth knowledge of Peruvian history and cultures... or relax in a hammock on the mezzanine and read one of the books from the extensive library of spiritual literature. One evening we were enchanted by the Andean harp playing of a local musician!Yoga Limatambo provides a peaceful and nurturing environment away from the world. One can join in a yoga session on the purpose built covered yoga platform, walk through the valley or just take time out and watch black tailed eagles gliding on thermals high above. (We also visited and bathed in thermal pools and picnicked below ancient Inca ruins where a shaman performed a ritual offering to the mountain spirits). At night with the moon above the valley and to the sound of the cicadas one can retire to the spacious bungalows to shower and relax in the seating area before falling into a comfortable bed dreaming of the next day in Paradise!

Oda and Armando were perfect hosts at Limatambo. Oda was our tour leader on a 3 week tour of Peru with Veggi Ventures. Oda is an experienced guide and an expert in Andean culture. We spent 3 days in their stunning guest house where we felt very welcome and free to roam the grounds where they grow much of their own organic food.I rated our bungalow highly with its mezzanine, en-suite and sitting area and the main house, where we took our meals was equally impressive. Our meals were fresh, delicious, organic, and beautifully presented. The Peruvian cooks couldn't do enough for us. We had entertainment on one evening by a Peruvian musician as well as yoga, massage, readings by a Peruvian shaman and a swim in natural spa water and picnics. The memories of the trip will last for ever.

I have visited Yoga Limatambo Guesthouse twice now and would highly recommend it to everyone who is looking for peace and quietness. You'll find everything here that is required to re-energise and nourish all of your systems - body, mind and soul - and that includes amazing organic food which is prepared with so much love you can taste it!The owners and staff are super friendly and have created a family-like atmosphere. They are very knowledgeable about Peru's history and ancient traditions and about how to grow your own organic food and are going out of their way to make your stay the best ever. Love Armanod's little sculptures along the walkway!Thank you so much Oda and Armando - you guys are rockstars!!!!

My husband and I spent a weekend at Limatambo Guesthouse with our 2 year old son, and had a wonderfully relaxing time. The guesthouse property is set up on the hillside of Limatambo, with beautiful gardens, trails that boast lovely views, and ample cottage-style bungalows decorated beautifully with many wonderful artistic touches by Armando himself. Hot showers, comfy beds, and nice big windows with pretty views, healthy food, and excellent customer service make for a perfect weekend (or week-long!) getaway.We enjoyed delicious wholesome vegetarian meals, lovingly prepared by Oda, with many ingredients taken from their very own garden. I took a yoga class in the morning in a lovely outdoor studio, surrounded by nature and the rising sun - I enjoyed it very much and would recommend taking advantage of it to anyone staying at the retreat.Not to mention that a delicious breakfast awaits you when you are done! If you have a few nights and want to get out of Cusco and experience some of Andean natures finest - dont miss out on this hidden gem!

Before entering the enchanting Yoga Limatambo Guesthouse, theres a winding, bumpy road thats quite exciting; it makes you feel as if youre on your way to a hidden gem in the mountains, which you are! The guesthouse gave me a memorable experience. I loved walking with my mom (or alone) through the long stretch of garden that was filled with greenery and organic produce. The cats and dog lounge around and keep to themselves, but theyre a joy to watch. The rooms are very clean and comfortable.At night, the fireplace in the main house is toasty and comforting. The interior dcor of the rooms and the main house give off an earthy charm. Oh, and the food was spectacular! The chef is a meticulous and talented man who made some of the best vegan food Ive ever had. Oda and Armando have taken care of us not only at the guesthouse, but also on our other Peru adventures. Theyre capable, responsible, and reliable people. Thank you for a fun, relaxing time!

I enjoyed everything. I came with an open mind, looking for something to give me energy, positive thoughts and to stretch my body and mind alike. The Yoga classes were enjoyable... The food was phenomenal! So many flavours - each delicious!

I enjoyed the peace and solitude cradled in the powerful energy of the Andes, and of course being fuelled by your beautiful cooking, insightful conversation and spiritual practice.
