Hyatt Hotels Corporation and El Pardo Hospitality have announced the debut of The Legend Paracas Resort, joining the Destination by Hyatt brand. The 124-suite resort invites guests and World of Hyatt members to discover the natural wonders and historical legacy of Paracas, located on the coast of Peru, about three hours south of Lima. The resort is nestled between the Paracas Nature Reserve and the Pacific Ocean, offering panoramic views of the Paracas Bay and desert hills, designed to be a place of immersive discovery, authentic design and warm, welcoming service.
The opening unveils a fully renovated reception desk and lobby, along with a number of enhancements designed to enrich the guest experience. The resort now offers a covered parking garage with two EV (electric vehicle) chargers and a redesigned restaurant and bar inspired by the Paracas culture that evokes the connection between the desert and the sea.
"It is a privilege to join forces with Hyatt to open The Legend Paracas Resort and connect guests with this unforgettable coastal town's people, place and culture. This has been an exciting project for our team, and we are thrilled to officially open our doors to local Peruvians and global travellers alike and invite guests and World of Hyatt members to make this destination their own,” commented Ricardo Bracale, CEO of El Pardo Hospitality.
The Legend Paracas Resort is comprised of 124 two-room suites, each equipped with private balconies or terraces that unveil stunning ocean, garden or pool views and deliver an experience that ensures guests feel right at home. The guestroom design reflects the natural beauty of the Paracas National Reserve, drawing inspiration from the natural wonders and historical legacy of the region, using wood and natural fabrics. Each suite includes a communal living room with a sofa bed, TV and desk, a kitchenette with a microwave, coffee maker, tea kettle and minibar, and a guestroom with a terrace on the first floor or a balcony on the second.
The Legend Paracas Resort is home to three on-site culinary concepts that offer different gastronomic experiences using the finest ingredients from the destination, including its signature restaurant and bar, Azul, offering Peruvian and international flavours with fresh local ingredients and its casual beach-front restaurant Rey de Las Olas Bar & Lounge. The Pool Side Bar offers light bites and signature cocktails using Peruvian Pisco, local fruits, and non-alcoholic cocktails with a twist incorporating local ingredients such as purple corn. Twenty-four-hour in-room dining is also available daily.
The resort also offers Café Zokya, authentic Peruvian coffee that blends the unique characteristics of coffee beans sourced from three distinct regions: Quillabamba (Cusco), Pozuzo (Pasco), and Rodriguez de Mendoza (Amazonas). This signature blend is available throughout the hotel’s restaurants, main dining areas and guestrooms.
