Luxury Holidays At Awasi Hotel
Ideal for those wanting to combine intrepid travel with city-style comforts, the boutique Awasi Hotel offers weary travellers a comfortable stay at an ancient site in the heart of San Pedro de Atacama, within the unforgiving Atacama Desert and its dry, volcanic terrain. Find respite inside the lodge's protective adobe walls and discover a desert oasis replete with just eight plush guest suites, each with a lofty thatched ceiling, spacious bathroom, showers inside and out and a private patio. In addition, the lodge comprises a courtyard, bar, swimming pool, al fresco lounge and dining areas, a firepit and a restaurant serving local and international dishes that can be tailored to guests' individual requirements by the chefs. Terracotta abounds here, flushed with simple constructions of stone, wood and adobe, while flashes of acid-coloured fabrics punctuate the earthy colour scheme. A series of exciting activities, including bird-watching, walking, 4x4 drives or simply lounging around the swimming pool, means that adventure versus relaxation collides spectacularly here, and Awasi Hotel has achieved the perfect balance of both.
