Skylodge, Would you like to sleep in this hanging hotel?

The Sacred Valley of Peru offers some of the most incredible views of the world to travelers, but especially spectacular for the lucky and daring adventurers who sleep in the capsules of the Natura Vive Skylodge Adventure, a peculiar lodge to which, at the very least, you have to exude as "a hotel of height". The Natura Vive Skylodge Adventure capsules are hanging from the cliff walls at about 120 meters high. The views are magnificent, and we can not say that they are paniramica of 360º because there is a small part that is stuck to the wall. The accommodation also includes breakfast and a gourmet dinner with wine.Here, in the heart of the Inca Empire, three luxury suites await us, three transparent capsules that can accommodate a total of eight people. There is only one small problem(for many this is not a problem, is adventure): to get there you have to climb the vertical wall of the cliff. The good notice is that also you can access by the famous zipline. But that's where the risks end: the Skylodge capsules (8 x 2.5 meters) are completely safe. They are built with aerospace aluminum and polycarbonate very resistant to the elements. Inside there are high quality mattresses, cotton sheets, as well as pillows and comforters to ensure a good night's sleep in the heights.

 

Highlights of Skylodge:

  • The curious hotel called Skylodge Adventure Suites of Natura Vive is hanging on a mountain more than 400 meters high around the Sacred Valley in Peru. In addition to living a unique experience, guests can enjoy the most incredible views in the world.
  • With 7.5 meters in length and 2.6 meters in height and width, each module has 4 beds, a dining room and a private bathroom, in addition to 6 windows and 4 ventilation ducts. The only exit is the hatch located at the top, the lighting is ecological and the curtains can be closed (although there will be no neighbors other than some birds).
  • Made of aero-space aluminum and high-strength polycarbonate
  • There are two ways to climb up to Skylodge the hanging hotel and it is always necessary to put on your helmet, gloves and harness. The first option is via ferrata (this is the name given to the type of climbing route in the mountain, with a security system that is permanently installed for people without experience in climbing). The second alternative is a zip line, so you have to "fly" through the different stretches of the "zipline" (there are 7 cables with a length of between 150 and 700 meters).
