San Pedro de
Atacama - stay in traditional hotel, near desert hot springs
The Terrantai Lodge hotel in San Pedro de Atacama was conceived to combine the spirit of traditional Atacamenean custom with the creature comforts modern day travelers expect, even in the world's driest desert. We offer an authentic experience in this spectacular desert so far from Europe and North America in a manner true to the native force of the desert oases,the hot springs, the surrounding mountains and altiplano that inspire it. Here you find adventure for the mind and body and relaxation for the soul in a hotel full of native traditions.
The lodge called Terrantai or Place of Calm is situated in the heart of the village of San Pedro de Atacama next to the village church, just steps from the craft market, and close by the small assortment of restaurants and shops that comprise San Pedro today. The inspiration of the lodge, from the breadth of its traditional stone and adobe walls to the meandering layout of its traditional stone passages and patios, will transport you to another world. Our tours and trips - soft adventure - to the surrounding desert, salt lakes with flamingoes, altiplano, el tatio geysers, volcanoes, sunset in valley of the moon (valle de la luna), will inspire you and fill you with the spirit of the Atacama and its people.
Terrantai is built on the ruins of an old house, which rose from ruins of a very old house that is next to the plaza that is the centre of San Pedro. In this house, through the very thickness of its walls, and the natural stone of its making, one feels not only the tug of history, but also the energy of ancestors. Today, our lodge accommodation, daily adventures and meals are inspired by the history and sharing that has passed between these walls. In an age of transcontinental flights, orthopedic footbeds, and waterproof breathable fabric, we are sure that you will find that adventure amidst tradition opens an inspiring doorway upon another world where discovery and comfort exist side by side in this friendly welcoming hotel.
