Tierra Atacama Hotel and Spa

Incredible experience! Every little detail was thought of, every staff member so thoughtful! It’s expensive, but totally worth it!

I stayed at Tierra Atacama for four nights on their all-inclusive package, and I can honestly say it was one of the most memorable travel experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel not just welcomed, but truly cared for. Their professionalism was matched by a warmth and friendliness that made every interaction feel personal and genuine. The excursions were thoughtfully curated, blending adventure with cultural insight and natural beauty. Whether walking through lunar landscapes or stargazing under the clearest skies imaginable, each outing felt like a gift. The guides were knowledgeable, passionate, and attentive to every detail. Back at the lodge, the atmosphere was serene and beautifully designed—luxurious without being pretentious. The food was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with options that catered to every preference -vegetarian (like me!), vegan, gluten free.... . As for the spa. a sanctuary of calm after a day of exploration. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Tierra Atacama doesn’t just offer a stay—it offers an experience that lingers long after you’ve left. Highly, wholeheartedly recommended.

Very young, friendly, well-trained, multi-lingual and attentive staff. The environment is special, with a hotel that combines a palette of colors for the common areas and rooms that fit very well with the desert environment, always under the constant presence of an extinct volcano in the distance. Excursions are the landmark of this desert: Taito Geysers, the Salt Flats of Atacama (Chaxa Lagoon) and Piedras Rojas high altitude lakes were stunningly beautiful. I strongly recommend the in-hotel Nightly Stargaze in the cleanest sky on earth. Guides were very well-informed. At the hotel, my wife and I felt we were on a movie set living an experience of beauty with the support of great hotel team. We were also very impressed about how proud they are of Chile and their desire to share what their country and desert have to offer with us.

The moment we walked into Tierra Atacama it was like a warm hug. So homely and welcoming. The rooms had everything you could think of but no TV or iron but who needs those things with the amazing experiences included in your stay. The food was delicious with a different menu each day. Wine also spot on. The little things like the humidifier in the room and the gift each night as well as the trail mix station and drink bottle all added to a memorable stay. The included excursions were just fascinating and worth the bus ride. I was fine with the altitude, even at the Geysers at 4300 metres. Would 100% go back and recommend to anyone.

I had the pleasure of spending three nights at Tierra Atacama organised with Chimu Adventures. The facilities, architecture, cuisine, knowledge of staff, activities offered, and incredible guides made for an exceptional stay.
