Relax and rejuvenate at this unique space. Ideal for couples, remote workers, writers, musicians, artists — anyone seeking tranquility and peace, and lots of privacy. Nestled in the sunny hills of Calango, approximately 75 miles (120 km) from Lima International Airport (LIM), is this newly built 540 sf (50 m2) private and fully equipped apartment. Terrace adds additional 50 m2 of space. The project is off-grid and sustainable using solar energy, Starlink internet, local water, and a biodigester.
This space is located in a new off-grid development of country homes in Calango, Peru. Calango is known for its comfortable climate with bright sun all year long. The air is clean and clear in this area. The property is situated at the rear of the development and has total privacy -- no noisy neighbors to deal with and no traffic passing by the house. You are renting the second floor of the home with a private and separate entrance. The first floor has its own separate entrance and is rented separately. If you are interested in also renting the first floor for a larger group, please contact me. If you enjoy hiking or rock climbing, there is an abundance of opportunity for these activities right outside the property.
You will have access to the second floor of the home and the outdoor terrace, which is private for your use only. You may also access the hills surrounding the home. These apartment you are renting is private and not shared with anyone.
We are available before and during your stay for any questions or concerns you have. We speak both English and Spanish. Please feel free to ask any questions you have. We prefer to communicate here on Airbnb as this is the easiest way for us to interact with you. Thanks for understanding.
This property is located in a community of new off-grid properties. The community is still new and there are not many homes yet built. The surrounding area of Calango is very pleasant. The main town square is a short drive away. There you can find local wines and fruits for sale, and there are a few restaurants that specialize in Peruvian cuisine, especially shrimp dishes as shrimp is a specialty in the region. La Capilla is a tourist area of Calango further up the river valley that offers additional restaurants and natural beauty.
This location is out in the countryside and it is recommended that you arrive by car. There is plenty of parking at the property. Inside of the community, you can walk freely and safely, and there is ample space for exercise, walking, jogging, hiking, etc. If you need assistance with transportation (e.g. from Lima Airport) please contact me and I will try my best to help you.
This particular community of homes is still new and developing, so there are not many other homes currently built. On the one hand, this creates a nice and very private atmosphere. On the other hand, if you are looking to meet new people and mingle with neighbors, this may not be a good fit for you.
Also note that this property uses Starlink satellite internet as this is the only signal available for this property. The signal is strong and consistent 24/7, and the speed has been tested as noted in the listing. I have installed Starlink extenders throughout the property so that the signal reaches all rooms and also the terrace area. You should not have any problems connecting to internet during your stay.
Finally, the list of amenities shown on the listing is what we are able to offer at this point. As time goes by and we add new amenities at the property, we will update the list. Any questions, please ask.
