Hotel Paracas

White bungalows with bright blue doors sit among bougainvillea and palm trees on the edge of Paracas Bay, where the water is spectacular to look at and entirely unswimmable. The resort works as a base for exploring the surrounding nature reserve by boat from its private dock, with kayaking, catamaran sailing, and sand biking rounding things out on land. The 120 rooms run minimalist, with bamboo walls, stone bathrooms, and terraces that face the gardens or the ocean.
