  • The Pikaia Lodge Concept is designed for the environmentally conscious, physically active and adventurous traveler, who seeks close contact with the unique natural wonders of the Galapagos, with the highest level of comfort and services that can be provided within the limitations of such a remote, restricted and eco-sensitive location.

Featured Hotels

  • Casa de Uco Vineyards & Wine Resort invites guests to live and breath wine culture in an unbeatable setting at the foothills of the Andes Mountains in Mendoza, Argentina. The essence of the hotel, an impressive structure inspired by the geography of the land and its natural surroundings, strives to provide the utmost level of comfort, while still blending with the mountains, vineyards, and clear blue skies.
