Adjacent to the Cordillera de Sel to the south of Santiago, this 5-star lodge is an example of ecological Andean architecture. Tucked away in the world’s most arid desert, the Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa is a favorite with travelers, and aims to offer guests a triple experience: “The Lodge Experience” (service, comfort, architecture), “The Excursion Experience” (over 35 suggested excursions) and “The Spa Experience” (multi-award-winning spa). <\/p>\n

\"331bcdcd-05a2-498b-9179-5ffdaf224cd2\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The architecture blends with the surrounding nature. Here, everything pays homage to the region through locally inspired decoration and architecture (materials, textiles, crafts). In addition to 42 rooms – all with private terraces – an elegant restaurant, a renowned spa, six outdoor pools and a daily excursion program, the lodge boasts an open-air observatory for starry evenings. <\/p>\n

\"77baddd0-4ae1-453c-8031-576d9e28f71a\"<\/a><\/p>\n

To preserve the region’s ecosystems and landscapes, the hotel is committed to an environmental approach: Andean-style architecture using local materials, solar panels, recycling of materials, traditional cultivation of local produce, use of biodegradable products, an architectural system that allows guests to stay “cool” without air conditioning…<\/p>\n

Despite being the driest desert in the world, the Atacama region offers a wide variety of landscapes, including the Valley of the Moon, the Tatio geysers, among the most active in the world, and the Salar d’Atacama at the foot of the Licanbur and Lascar volcanoes. Not forgetting the many cactus deserts, and the Milky Way, which can be seen over 300 days a year! <\/p>\n

\"a82d9d30-9f12-478e-ba88-577ba3e56ab3\"<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

These are just some of the wonders that travelers can discover on the range of excursions offered by the hotel: flora and fauna observation, hiking, trekking, mountain biking, climbing, stargazing, mini-van excursions…<\/p>\n

Another not-to-be-missed feature is the Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa’s spa, which offers a wide range of treatments. The combination of the purity of the glacier water, the quality of the massages and the aromatic fragrances make these treatments relaxing after a day’s excursion. In addition to these treatments, the spa has 6 outdoor pools, a Finnish sauna, Turkish baths, Scottish showers and an indoor and outdoor whirlpool. <\/p>\n

\"f0047f9f-d624-471e-b3c9-776cabb4f95f\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Finally, a new feature for June 2015: the Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa will offer (at no extra charge) 4 “fitness and beauty courses” combining 3 spa treatments (e.g. hammam, sauna and massage) in place of outdoor excursions. These “courses” will be directly included in the all-inclusive package. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
