Fodor's Expert Review Explora Atacama

This all-inclusive hotel looks more like an estancia or even a stable from the outside, but inside spacious rooms and airy interiors look out onto the volcanoes in the distance and the friendly staff is there to help you plan your excursions in the altiplano and desert. Spend days galloping across the desert on horseback, sliding down sand dunes, hiking through canyons, and lunching at natural hot springs. In the evenings, relax by the maze of swimming pools and stop by the Explorer’s Bar to swap tales of the day's adventures over glasses of Chilean wine and cocktails. And don’t forget to glimpse skyward after sundown, enjoying the stars beneath some of the world’s clearest night skies. Explora Atacama offers three, four, and seven-day stays, with tours, meals, and drinks included.
