Wonderful Place to Stay in the Desert

We looked at far more expensive, all-inclusive accommodations in San Pedro de Atacama before discovering Hotel Desertica. What a find! They truly had everything you need for a relaxing stay in the desert at a very reasonable price. The staff is friendly and professional, the free breakfast was fresh and abundant, and it was great to unwind at the restaurant at night after a long day exploring this incredible part of the world. This was a late-autumn visit, so we did not swim -- but it was lovely to sit by the pool and soak in the sun for a few hours here and there. They are super-well located, just steps to everything you need. Highly recommend!

Ideal Oasis in San Pedro

Great find! An oasis in San Pedro. If you are planning any group excursions to geysers, salt flats, etc, it’s really convenient to be dropped off at your hotel. Easy walk to the town’s main street amenities. Staff are really kind and thoughtful, rooms are comfy and quiet, and the whole place has a friendly, calm vibe. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed this nice small hotel oasis. The staff was very friendly and we loved our little yurt. I would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling to San Pedro. Parking as they say is very limited.

11 out of 10, amazing stay

Outstanding service. Great location in town on the main street with loads of shops, coffee shops and restaurants. Super clean and absolutely beautiful place. Stunning round rooms tastefully decorated in traditional style using natural local materials. Really nice, high quality bed linen, lovely soft towels and bath robe. High quality toiletries. So many little touches and all little details have been thought of that it makes this place to stand out. Fantastic breakfast with a lot of choices. It is served to you and it is beautifully presented. The hotel has a small car park, which I don't think was mentioned anywhere in the hotel facilities. This was the best hotel we stayed in in Chile and the highlight of our trip! And we did stay in a few 5 star hotels during our 3 weeks trip. I wish I could have stayed longer. I can not recommend it highly enough!

This hotel is the best! Definitely recommend this stunning oasis in the otherwise dusty and scruffy San Pedro de Atacama. The town is fun, but it's wonderful to have this island of luxury to escape back to. The food was amazing, the staff so friendly and helpful and everything in the hotel is beautiful. Couldn't recommend highly enough!!
