San Pedro de Atacama Vacation Packages

If you speak some Spanish, this hotel is perfect. It's located a mile from village, and is utterly serene, with a nice big garden where you can sit over a drink or two, with a great view of Licancabur. It also has its own laid-back dining room, where kids are welcome. The hotel can arrange your excursions to the various tourist attractions. My room was small but clean and adequate, and in any case you probably won't be spending much time in your room. If you don't speak Spanish, you'll have some difficulty, because the staff don't speak any English at all. (There was, I think, one exception, and she wasn't around much.) But the staff are so friendly and eager to help that the language problem can be overcome with a little creativity (gestures and Google Translate!). When my transfer back to Calama was late showing up, the receptionist made phone call after phone call on her own initiative until it was sorted out. It's a terrific place to relax for a few days. The night sky is incredible. Carry a flashlight if you plan to walk back from the village after sundown.
