The Santiago de La Nazca Villa was founded by the Head Chief of the valley, Don García de Lanasca in the times of Viceroy Don Luis de Velasco (1596-1606), dividing the land between the Spaniards that lived in that region. Majoro derives from the Quechua words MA = place, and Qoro = thickets, adding them up, it means place of thickets.

In 1698 the premises were given to the Saint Augustus Convent, until 1910 when it became a private property run until the Agrarian Reform by the aristocratic De la Borda family who remodeled the old convent into a Casa Hacienda and in the 1980´s into what today is the Hotel Majoro.
