Wow!! What an AMAZING trip we had to Chile!! Angel was the absolute BEST in helping us plan our incredible itinerary to Santiago, Patagonia and Easter Island. His communication was so helpful and made us feel totally at ease knowing that we would be perfectly taken care of. Every private car transfer, each hotel, tour, tour guide, and domestic flights were exactly what we wanted. Chile is an absolute paradise and I miss it already. THANK YOU so so much for helping to make a wonderful family vacation.

Hotel Solace
Providencia

Rooms are large and spacious, the complimentary drinks in the mini fridge were a huge bonus, the rooftop lounge and pool are gorgeous (we spent most of our time up there), the food was delicious and the staff were all extremely friendly.

Hosteria Pehoe

This hotel has the BEST views and scenery in all of Patagonia. That’s why you stay here. It’s located on its own little island that includes a short hike to the top of a hill to get the most stunning views of the mountains. The food was just okay and kind of expensive, but that’s true of all of the accommodations in the park. The staff were kind and helpful. The WiFi only works in the common area which includes a large lounge upstairs with beautiful views of the landscape and mountains.

Perfect place to stay if you are in-between flights and need to just sleep for the night. Rooms were large and modern and the restaurant had great food and wine.

The prettiest hotel! Our rooms were large and spacious, the air conditioning worked great, lots of palm trees and flowers around the resort. The views of the ocean each morning while we ate our breakfast was the best!

Our guide (Nacho) did a fabulous job at showing us all of the most beautiful spots in the park. His knowledge of the geology, the flowers and plant life, the animals (we saw 2 pumas!!) and the best places for us to hike for our skill-level was perfect.

Well, it would have been a fabulous hike but unfortunately me and my family were not in-shape enough to complete it. We gave it our best shot but not being used to hiking, it was too difficult for us. I thank our guide Nacho for taking our health and safety into consideration and recommending we try shorter and easier hikes instead. The day was just as good, if not better.

A perfect way to see the highlights of the island! We saw all of the Moai statues, the quarry where they were carved from, and learned all about the history and culture of the Rapa Nui people.
