Hotel Overview

Sense of Place

Explora Rapa Nui is located in a tranquil setting surrounded by prairies, trees and vistas of the Pacific Ocean, making for the perfect location from which to start your exploration of Easter Island and its mysteries. 

Rooms at explora Rapa Nui

Taking inspiration from the surrounding landscapes, the rooms combine concrete with wood fixtures, pillows and throws add splashes of colour, and large windows frame the fantastic island and sea views.

On your return from a day's exploring, head to the Explorer's Bar for a Chilean wine - or something a little stronger (!). This is also where you will have your daily meeting with the guides to plan your adventures.

Facilities

If you need some time to just sit back and relax, then head to the spa for a swim in the outdoor pool, a dip in the Jacuzzi or a massage to help rejuvenate those muscles for the following day's explorations. 

Don't worry if you've forgotten some essentials, need something extra for your adventures or just want to buy some artisanal gifts - there is a little shop selling all this and more.
