Serenity Hotel & Lodge

위치가 조금 아쉽긴합니다. 와카치나에서 조금 애매한 거리입니다. 하지만 직원분이 굉장히 친절하셨고 바로바로 대처를 해주셔서 매우 기분좋게 묵었습니다. 청결도 또한 만족했습니다.

I was a bit weary at first since this was listed as a hostel. However, I was pleasantly surprised when we arrived. Unlike most hostels, it was quiet and our family booked up half of the place. There were dogs and horses on the property, which always makes my stay better. The breakfast and service was great. Although I booked a double, they gave me a triple instead. The pool was nice and clean as well. The place is filled with lovely antiques which made it very charming.

We had a lovely stay at Serenity Lodge not far from Huacachina. It is a nice tranquil place with a good restaurant area. The gardens and outdoor spaces are nice too. The room was simple and clean. We would advise booking taxis through the hotel to get around which was smooth and easy. It was also nice to go for a swim. Recommend!

Our experience of this place was well beyond our expectations. This was mainly because of the fantastic hospitality provided by the owners Oscar and Luchy! The place is in an area between Ica and Huacachina. The location itself is nothing special and there are no nice places around, but we walked to Huacachina with our two kids in just under 30 minutes – and usually took a taxi back. So, if you’d like to avoid the loud an overpriced accommodation options in Huacachina, and you don’t mind walking for half an hour, then this place is the perfect alternative. Luchy’s country house has a wonderful pool which is perfect for cooling down from the hot sun you get during the day. The rest of the common areas are very charming and full of antiques. In comparison, the rooms were a bit disappointing as not always as spacious and tastefully furnished as the rest of the house. Another slight letdown about the rooms was the lack of towels. You get one towel per person, so no extra as a hand towel or floor towel for the shower. However, we found this as a very common practice in Peru. I do understand the issue of scarce water, and we make a conscious effort not to use more than we need, but an extra two towels should not cause such major damage. We also made use of their laundry service as we had been a week in Peru when we got to Luchy’s. It was not expensive, but I found it odd and unimpressive that the staff gave us our clean clothes stuffed into a couple plastic bags without any care. Whilst I was not expensive ironed clothes or the standard of a 5-star hotel, folding the clothes in a nice and tidy way would have been a nice touch. This may be more down to the staff needing more training. The owners did highlight the issues they’ve had with the lack of good staff. On the other hand, there is plenty more that is great about this place. The food, for example, is fantastic! The breakfast included in the cost of the accommodation is delicious, fresh and plentiful. We had lunch and dinner there and the food always impressed! We’d definitely recommend staying here if you are visiting the area. It is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the dunes!

I saw some reviews that are not that good, because de placement of the hotel is creepy, or beacause the staff is not friendly. But we didn’t have this experience. The hotel look just like the photos ! The staff was always there to make our experience better. I loved the fact that there is so much animals (chicken,horses, dogs !!!) we really liked our experience at luchy’s.
