Favorite places we stayed in our three month journey in South America - in no particular order.
1. Churrup guest house
We were told about this place on the train back from Machu Picchu.
By a lovely Canadian couple that we had also shared a guest house with in Arequipa.
It is also recommended in Lonely Planet.
It was a very comfortable, friendly place.
Breakfast was included - and it was the best breakfast of the trip!
Also breakfast was a very social time and we met some awesome people there that we went on day trip with and swapped travel stories.
The breakfast room is at the top of the building and so you have an amazing view of some peaks of the Cordillera.
2. Ushuaia Ukurj apartment, Andres
I was so lucky to find this place!
I's been having trouble finding something that met our criteria...and then this popped up on Bookings.com.
We loved it!

It was fairly new and nice and clean and neat.

He even gave us a lift up the hill to the start of the walk to the Martial glacier.
It would have been great to have spent more time with him.
3. El Chalten. Cabanas Paso de Viento
Another Bookings.com find, the cabins were compact, quiet and near the start of one of the walking tracks.
The cabin was cute and comfortable and the host was just delightful. Nothing was too much trouble.
4. Colca Trek Lodge, Canon de Colca
Perhaps the best place we stayed....for the shortest time!
We did an ovenight trip from Arequipa to Colca Canyon with Colca Trek Adventure Travel.
They have their own lodge in the small village of Pinochollo.
It is amazing.
Unfortunately we arrived late, went for a walk to look into the canyon and left early the next day for a bike ride.
It would have been great to chill out here for a couple of days.
The biggest, softest, warmest beds!
5. Tatiana's airbnb in Barranco, Lima
Places like this are the reason I love airbnb.
