Sol y Luna Hotel
Encircle by the majestic Andes mountains, the Sacred Valley of the Incas is a vast, undulating landscape of lush agrarian terrace, pre-Columbian ruins and Spanish colonial churches. In remote highland villages, inhabitants trace their ancestry to Tahuantinsuyu, or the Land of the Four Quarters, as the great Inca Empire was known in the 13th to 16th centuries. Throughout this rich history, this naturally fertile valley has remained the region’s breadbasket and continues to inspire the global phenomenon that is contemporary Peruvian cuisine.

The Sol y Luna Association is committed to achieving a change in the lives of the children of the Sacred Valley through comprehensive training. They offer quality education, ensuring their well-being and provide logistics that allows children to attend the local school Petit and Franz arrived in the Sacred Valley of the Incas in 1998, with the commitment to support the youth and children of their community. It is in the smiles of the children that they found the motivation to offer them the opportunity to have a better life through education. Sharing with the community, families and their children reaffirms this commitment. They started by helping local schools, improving their infrastructure and organising cultural and sports activities. Following their values of inclusion and equality , they created the Sol y Luna Association; and they opened the Sol y Luna Lodge to support their educational proposal and offer work to the parents of the community. After 10 years supporting various schools and projects, it was decided to promote the Sol y Luna Intercultural School.
