Uyuni salt flats: Luna Salada

Visit Us

Luna Salada

This small, isolated and utterly magical Luna Salada hotel, built entirely of salt blocks, overlooks the spectacularly surreal Uyuni salt flats from a low bluff – giving an impression of being on the edge of another planet.

Except for the tiled bathrooms, all the walls and floors of this extraordinary property are made of compacted salt crystals, which shimmer in the sunlight. Even the furniture is mostly made of salt, made homely with cushions and Bolivian textiles.

Guestrooms are modest but all have heaters, electric blankets and cosy bedspreads. The rooms are built along one side of a long corridor, opposite which there is a sitting area with large bay windows framing wonderful views of the salt flats.

Beautiful and unique hotel almost entirely in salt, with a wonderful view on the salar. Cold in the room (very cold - 7 degrees - in the bathroom) - should have better heating / portable heaters.

OK but had double bed not twin (none available).People at reception very helpful. Restaurant seemed disorganised,food not brilliant, waiters/resses tried to be helpful but all running around without direction.

"A unique experience staying here, with almost everything made of salt blocks. Cosy wood burning stoves and lots of seating areas to enjoy the view onto the salt flats.  Excellent dinner and breakfast, and very helpful staff."
