Reviews and Ratings
Staying at the hotel felt like a cozy retreat with wonderful views over the coastline from the room below the garden. The morning and afternoon light streaming through the windows added a special touch to the experience, though the distance from the center was a slight drawback. The warm and welcoming service made it feel like being hosted by a family, but the breakfast, while simple, could use some more variety.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is superb, with stunning sea views from the terraces and right in the heart of the lively Barranco district. The rooms, although needing an upgrade, had a unique touch with two balconies, one leading to the roof. The service was exceptional, with the staff, led by Carlos, being warm and friendly, creating a cozy atmosphere. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with delicious passion fruit but basic breakfast options. Overall, a great value for the money!
Staying at Second Home Peru was truly magical. The rooms are spacious and beautifully designed into the cliff with balconies overlooking the ocean, offering a fabulous view of the Pacific. The service, led by Carlos, was warm and friendly, providing reliable transportation and great recommendations. The location in Barranco is perfect, overlooking the sea with unique artwork throughout, but the dining experience was a little disappointing despite the delicious passion fruit.
