What our customers think of Explora Atacama

Explora Atacama trips scored 4.5/5 from 26 reviews

Our guide for the first half was so helpful - we did a lot of things - petroglyphs, Rainbow Valley, cactus hike, salt flats, geysers and stargazing. The hotel itself was very nice and we were able to stop in the town and walk around a bit (then walk back). Read the full review

Why we like this hotel

  • The first 5-star, all-inclusive luxury hotel in San Pedro de Atacama.
  • They have four infinity pools (plus a sauna).
  • A fantastic variety of excursions for active people who want to be out every day, hiking, biking and riding.
  • Ideal for horseriders as the hotel has its own horses and an amazing stable block.
  • The best telescopic observatory in San Pedro de Atacama.
  • Just 5-10 minutes walk from downtown San Pedro.
  • Puritama hot springs! Explora has a private pool there.

We think it's worth noting

  • The pool area is about a 5-7 minute walk away from the rooms. It is a big property so expect lots of walking (on wood platforms and uneven cobblestones).
  • The dining area is more casually designed than expected.
