Hotel Altiplanico Rapa Nui

Easter Island, Chile

Bordered by native banana and pineapple trees and boasting far-reaching Pacific Ocean views, Altiplanico Rapa Nui is a traditional boathouse-style property nestled within four acres of private land and gardens.

In addition to the painted motifs that grace the outside of the property and typify authentic Easter Island aesthetics, guests have access to a series of small archaeological sites that were discovered during its construction and a circular swimming pool with views to the horizon. Connected by a network of garden trails, the 17 bright and spacious gable-roofed bungalows boast alfresco showers and private terraces that are encompassed by shrubs and flower patches to emphasise the feeling of seclusion.

Why we like Hotel Altiplanico Rapa Nui

A small property that exudes a peaceful Polynesian atmosphere, Altiplanico Rapa Nui strives to foster an attentive and thoughtful relationship between it and the ancestral ground on which it sits. While not a luxurious property in the traditional sense, the simplicity of this accommodation encourages guests to step outside and relish in the spectacular sunrises and indescribable star-filled skies.

Activities

Aside from the majestic and enchanting stone Moais that entice most visitors to the isolated and volcanic Easter Island, guests of Altiplanico Rapa Nui can visit Anakena Beach and Tahai when not unwinding in the outdoor pool or sipping a mango sour. A sea-view restaurant with an open-air bar serves Chilean and Peruvian-inspired dishes with a Rapa Nui twist, and traditional musical performances with accompanying dances are often performed at dinnertime. At just two miles from Hanga Roa, it is worthwhile taking the 45-minute stroll to its restaurants and museums past the Moais of Ahu Tahei and clusters of wild horses.
