Located in San Pedro de Atacama and with Piedra del Coyote reachable within 8 km, Hostal Ckamai provides a tour desk, rooms, a garden, free WiFi and a terrace. The property is around 27 km from Termas de Puritama, 1.1 km from San Pedro Church and 2.7 km from Pukará de Quitor. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen, a 24-hour front desk and luggage storage for guests.

Moon Valley is 14 km from the hostel, while Puritama Hotsprings is 29 km away. El Loa Airport is 93 km from the property. It is a lovely place with very friendly owners. First of all, I do not really understand why it is called hostel - every room has its own shower and toilet, and in fact it is rather a very small hotel with access to a nice and neat kitchen (since there are only three rooms, we never even co-used it with anyone, it was to our use all the time). The building is designed in a smart way, so that it is not too hot inside the rooms, and even the absence of A/C was not an issue. It is possible to park a car in the front yard and lock the gate, which makes it very safe place. Normally I am very picky and never stay in hostels, but it is a nice exception.

Situated in San Pedro de Atacama, Hostal Perita is set just a short distance from attractions such as San Pedro Church, Pukará de Quitor, and San Pedro's main square. Free WiFi available throughtout the property. Extremely nice hostel and an incredible value. The room was clean and comfy, with the biggest and most comfortable bed I have had in 3 months of hostel travels. The attention to guests was excellent—-they provide daily cleaning of your room and provide a fresh, hot breakfast. The kitchen was well stocked, and there is a beautiful garden with lots of seating. Located 5 mins from the Main Street of the town, so you have easy access to everything but also peace and quiet when you’re at the hostel. Others have complained about the water temperature in their reviews but I found it good—- I had 2 very hot showers and 2 “warm-to-hot” showers, which is much better than average, in my hostel experience. Finally, the owner (Sol) and her son (Ignacio) are absolutely lovely and cultivate such a nice vibe—- I really enjoyed getting to know them and appreciated how they took the time to talk with and get to know their guests.

I would highly recommend this place, and if ever visit San Pedro, I will stay here again within a heartbeat. Finally, Andrea always helped us with a smile on her face no matter the time of the day.
