    The Guanacaste Coast, Costa Rica

    El Mangroove

    A chic beachfront escape

    Even with 85 rooms El Mangroove still strikes a very boutique sort of style and atmosphere. Cool, contemporary design combined with a quiet position on the Papagayo Gulf, makes for a more personal alternative to the larger resorts of the area. It’s the epitome of relaxed barefoot chic.

    The hotel’s range of suites have been decked out in a contemporary yet natural style, spread over three floors, affording every level a new tier of views of the surrounding mangrove trees. The property also fronts a dark-sand beach almost exclusively enjoyed by its guests, or you can take to relaxing on the sun loungers and cabanas surrounding its outdoor pool and lovely gardens.

    There are a good variety of activities from fishing to yoga and surfing, and El Mangroove has two restaurants serving some excellent farm- and ocean-to-table dishes, ranging from Peruvian to Argentinean.

    Palacio Guaqui

    Peru

    Palacio Guaqui

    Located within the historical heart of Arequipa, Palacio Guaqui was once the manor house of the Count of Guaqui from the 19th to the 20th century. This beautifully restored mansion forms part of the UNESCO World Cultural Heritage Site, recognised for its cultural and architectural significance.

    Every detail of Palacio Guaqui’s restoration reflects a deep respect for its original structure and surrounding environment. Peruvian artisans, using innovative and sustainable techniques, have preserved the mansion’s authentic charm while crafting an elegant retreat that feels timeless yet modern. Each suite in this boutique hotel is a sanctuary of refined design, offering spacious, warm and inviting interiors.  The serene ambiance of the three courtyards invites you to unwind and immerse yourself in the tranquil beauty of Arequipa.

    The hotel’s restaurant pays homage to the region’s culinary traditions, serving exquisite dishes crafted with fresh, local ingredients. The cosy atmosphere provides the perfect setting to savour authentic flavours of Peru, while a varied buffet breakfast ensures a delicious start to the day. For a more private dining experience, room service delivers the same level of culinary excellence to your suite. For those on the move, the hotel offers thoughtfully prepared lunch boxes, allowing you to carry a taste of Arequipa wherever your adventures takes you. Meanwhile the 24-hour bar provides an array of beverages and light snacks at any time of the day or night.
