Hotel Cumbres San Pedro
The Hotel Cumbres San Pedro is an oasis of calm, understated luxury amid the world’s driest desert, close to famous photogenic lagoons and surreal salt pans.
Atacama, the Hotel Cumbres San Pedro
Located on almost 20 acres of private land in San Pedro de Atacama, the Hotel Cumbres San Pedro is an oasis of calm, understated luxury amid the world’s driest desert. Styled to resemble the buildings of the indigenous Ayllus people, the complex is beautifully crafted out of native timber, stone and thatch.
The 60 quiet guestrooms mirror the rest of the hotel’s organic aesthetic, with minimalist interior decoration. Yet all the luxuries a discerning traveller can expect are present, from independent climate control to indulgent outdoor showers. Private terraces allow guests to enjoy the region’s ample sunshine. There are also plenty of shared facilities such as three outdoor pools and two open-air hot tubs to take advantage of the sunny climate.
Keep fit at the gym or by grabbing one of the hotel’s many bicycles to explore the stunning landscapes around town. You can also join some of the many escorted trips the Hotel Cumbres San Pedro can organise to nearby geysers, salt pans and lagoons. Take a gourmet picnic lunch along, packed by the excellent hotel restaurant, or come back in time for a leisurely sit-down meal in an atmospheric setting. At night, learn to recognise constellations from an expert astronomer.

Chile Tours Overview
Why Chile: When it comes to awesome scenery and untouched wilderness, Chile is hard to beat. From dry deserts to lush forests, gentle lakes and glimmering icefields, this country has it all.
Culture: Chile’s rich, diverse culture is influenced as much by its indigenous and European peoples, as the varied landscape. Art, literature, folk music, dance and festivals are all central to Chilean society.
When to Go: Chile’s climate varies with latitude. The Atacama is dry and sunny, hot in summer and cold at night in winter. Central Chile has a pleasing Mediterranean climate, with warm summers and wet, mild winters. Southern Patagonia receives plenty or rain, with cool, windy summers and cold winters.
Combine With: Neighbouring Argentina, particularly when visiting the Patagonia region. Chile also combines well with Peru, where you can visit Cusco, the Sacred Valley and Machu Picchu or experience the Amazon rainforest at a secluded eco-lodge.
Getting There: Most travellers into South America from Australia will fly via Sydney and/or Auckland into Santiago.
