Atacama Desert
Awasi Atacama
A truly private and personalised experience in the Atacama
Within the ancient town of San Pedro de Atacama lies Awasi, a 12-suite lodge complete with communal areas and a restaurant. The lodge offers a private guide and a 4WD vehicle with each room, so your Atacama Desert adventures are mere moments away. The hotel’s experiences are all completely private and personalised to your needs and requests.
The stunning suites of Awasi Atacama are circular in shape and thoughtfully crafted from adobe, stone and wood which help to keep them cool in the day and warm in the evenings. Each suite has its own private patio along with indoor and outdoor showers, whilst ten of the suites also feature their own walk-in wardrobes and chaises longues. For the rare, chilly evenings you’ll find cosy armchairs and alpaca blankets to wrap up warm in.
Throughout the lodge the walls are splashed with beautiful decorations of wool hangings and hardwood and marble floors, all of which evoke a sense of history and tradition.
The charming restaurant uses local, seasonal produce to create delicious dishes that show off some of the more traditional ingredients used in Chilean cooking. Its open-air setting makes for a truly magical and memorable meal.
For a welcome relief from the heat take a dive into the outdoor pool, or relax under the twinkling stars in one of the common areas, the crackling flames of the nearby fire pit your only companion.
Operating on an all-inclusive basis, Awasi Atacama ensures that transfers, accommodation, full-board meals, non-alcoholic beverages and all excursions are seamlessly included in your stay, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in this extraordinary experience.

Places to combine Awasi Atacama with
Torres del Paine
It’s this hotel’s bizarrely beautiful shape, designed to imitate that of a sun-bleached fossil on the ruggedly wild shores of Lake Sarmiento, which makes Tierra Patagonia such a striking place to stay. In fact, this sustainable lodge is known worldwide for its innovative architecture, which blends naturally into the landscape. The revitalised pampa, where the complex is based, has benefited from great conservation efforts, as well as focus on minimising footprint in this beautiful area.
This impressive blonde-wooded, design-led ‘shell’ houses 40 simple yet sophisticated Scandinavian-style rooms. Their exposed timber interiors create a tangible Sauna-like warmth that contrasts well with the views of the desolate pampas outside. There are family apartments of two adjoining rooms available, as well as the extensive Uma Spa, which is particularly welcomed after a hard day hiking the Torres del Paine National Park, which is simple given the hotel’s superb team of guides and the varied activities on offer here. From horse riding to climbing, this great range of opportunities means you really can take full advantage of your truly magnificent surrounds.
