Fodor's Expert Review Sky Hacienda

Truly unique accommodations are not common in Bolivia, but British/Canadian couple June and Ed have created just that in Sky Hacienda, which took nearly three years to complete. Every detail of this modern, stylish countryside retreat 25 minutes from Sucre is carefully curated, and most of it was dreamed up and handmade by the owners. From the first footfall on the polished earth floor to the monumental Gaudi-esque pillar that anchors the circular living area, the design is personal, funky, and intriguing. There are only two rooms, and they are world-class in style and comfort; they may have the best beds in Bolivia. Activities range from lazing around the hot tub with cocktails to hiking in the nearby countryside, or even trips farther abroad. Although it's isolated from the city, a free shuttle into town is offered daily. Meals are all prepared by June, who whips up professionally finished home cooking. Lunches, dinners, and drinks are not included in the price.
