An inspired, innovative property with high quality facilities offering comfort and style in the stunning Atacama Desert.

The innovative Nayara Alto Atacama blends earthy simplicity with smart luxury. Here, you’ll feel enveloped by the desert outside and inside the walls of the property, constructed with materials hewn from the surrounding tawny landscape.

The spacious rooms and suites, cooled by terracotta-tiled floors and decorated in muted colours with local crafts, open onto gardens with views to the cordillera beyond. Many of the public areas are open-air and the night-time star-gazing in clear, unpolluted skies is magical. The hotel also has its own telescope.

The luxurious aspects of the property include refined cuisine, outdoor swimming pools and a spa with Finnish sauna and Turkish bath. If you can tear yourself away from the top quality facilities, you can borrow a bike to explore the immediate area.
