As it sits outside the center, guests typically use a car or short taxi ride to reach town. Breakfast is widely praised, with early takeaway boxes prepared for tours; note that only breakfast is served on site and some guests wanted more variety. Expect a serene, service-led stay.

Vi havde 6 dejlige dage på dette sted. Fantastisk service, fantastisk morgenmad og hvilken søde og rare medarbejder som der var. Stedet ligger væk fra vejen med en fantastisk stilhed, hvor man kan slappe af ved pool, tager en øl I "Honesty" baren, en flaske vin fra opholdsrummet hvor der også er gratis kaffe/the, lidt vand og kiks og slik. Et sted jeg vil anbefale på det varmeste

Beautiful lodge just outside San Pedro. Taxis are about £5 and reception will call for you, restaurants are more than happy to arrange a return. It is away from the bustle of San Pedro and very peaceful. Staff are brilliant. We had a standard room, there was sufficient space, it was spotlessly clean, well equipped and well presented, we were very impressed. There is a lovely pool area and each room is self contained with outside seating. Only breakfast is served, this was very good, on other days we ordered the packed breakfast which was always ready for us and enjoyable. We felt well looked after, nothing was too much trouble and the lodge itself is a beautiful place to stay.

Fantastic experience. The lodge is truly an oasis in the Atacama desert. Not over the top luxurious… just a quiet, lovely and spacious facility. If you are renting your own car then this is a fantastic option. It’s only 5 min outside of town but it has the advantage of being apart from the bustle and noise of the town. Yet easy enough to drive into town for meals or supplies. At Lodge Quelana, everyone was super helpful and nice. Natalia and Paola are true credits as service personnel. They were more like concierge service folks than receptionists. The pool was nice and rooms/baths new and clean. And big! The place is quiet and has access to a platform for star gazing. I’m so glad we picked this spot.

Outstanding !! We loved how they took care of us. All the staff were amazing, Natalia and Yasna were exceptional with their customer service. Following their advice and recommendations on the local surroundings made our stay even more enjoyable. Everything was so well planned and designed, from the original welcome tour to the final day facilities available for swimming, showering and luggage storage after check out times. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and very well maintained. We felt so welcome, surrounded by smiles. Thank you! We highly recommend this lodge!

Our 5 night stay at Lodge Quelana was wonderful! We wanted to stay at a really nice, relaxing and quiet hotel while in San Pedro de Atacama and Lodge Quelana was perfect. We loved coming back to the pool and relaxing at the end of each day exploring the Atacama. The rooms, service, staff and breakfast are all wonderful! All of the staff are so lovely and helpful, particularly Paula and Nadia. It is a 7-10 minute drive from town so best to have your own car. We highly recommend staying there if you want a beautiful and relaxing place to stay!

Wow. What a great place to stay! Out of the city, which was nice. I think you certainly need a car if you’re wanting to stay here. Very quiet and the staff were incredible! Really made our trip to the Atacama special. Breakfast was delicious each morning and the pool side was lovely on our rest days or in between tours. Highly recommend!

After having passed through San Pedro de Atacama on the way to the property, we were so pleasantly surprised by the contrast that experience provided. The hustle bustle and dust of SPA was left behind for a quiet lush shaded oasis in the desert. The cooing of doves in the trees greeted us to our home for the next five days. The welcome we received from the staff was superb, and that experience stretched across everyone there. Breakfast was a joy every day, greeted with warm smiles and offers of a wide and completely satisfying spread of tasty foods. The room was spotless, private and oh so quiet and peaceful. The location offers easy access to the town, as well as the wider Atacama area. When we return to the Atacama, Quelana will be our first choice for base of operations. Thank you all!

A Natalia nos recebia sempre com um sorriso no rosto, muito atenciosa e simpática. Não tomamos café no hotel por causa do horário dos passeios, mas todos os dias prepararam alguns snacks para levarmos - tudo muito gostoso e preparado com carinho. Esperamos voltar em breve.

This is a lovely retreat. Each room is an individual cabana. The decor in the room was beautiful, and the landscaping of the grounds is wonderful. The staff was extremely gracious. I used this as a base to explore the area for 3 days and it was perfect. I had a rental car and explored on my own without booking any tours. It was easy and safe. A perfect trip. I will do it again soon.

Perfect choice when visiting Atacama! The Lodge is beautifully designed. The rooms are large, well equipped and comfortable. Each is extremely private. The staff are remarkable - everyone was super friendly and helpful. It's located a mile or so outside the town, so you need a car, but the result is peace and quiet and less dust. Very highly recommended!

O lodge quelana é incrível, exatamente como nas fotos da propriedade. Fomos de carro de calama até o hotel (melhor forma de conhecer o atacama). Tem um estacionamento amplo, os quartos são confortáveis e com ar condicionado/aquecedor - que faz toda diferença - pois durante o dia faz bastante calor e a noite bastante frio e eventualmente você ficará no hotel durante o dia após algum passeio na madrugada. Tudo estava muito limpo e o café da manhã é muito bom, a equipe do hotel é extremamente cordial e simpática, sempre com um sorriso no rosto e disposta a ajudar. A localização é um pouquinho depois de san pedro de atacama (vindo de calama), coisa de 4 minutos de carro, o que dá mais um ponto positivo para o local: silêncio e baixa poluição da luninosidade.

I had the most amazing stay at Lodge Quelana. One of the 3 accommodations with air con in Atacama, it is located out of town so you need a car unless you are happy to pay the small 6k CLP fee to get to town. The area is serene and beautiful though, out of the noise and dusty bustle of the township. I struggled with the altitude and heat so this place was a godsend. Breakfast was lovely and variety was decent for the included meal. The best thing about Lodge Quelana was the exemplar service. Best service I have ever received from a hotel from my travels worldwide. Natalia in reception was so accommodating and extremely responsive, going the extra mile to make my staff even more amazing such as ordering me my taxis even when I was in town and wanted to get back to the lodge, or making me a breakfast tray when I came back from a really morning day tour (at 1pm!), or being very generous with a late check out for me. Thankyou for being a luxurious and nurturing hotel in the desert, I really enjoyed my stay here!

Tudo excelente mas o que mais me chamou a atenção foi o serviço. Todos os funcionarios muito atenciosos. A senhora Naya que nos servia o café da manhã era muito atenciosa e amável e as recepcionistas Maria José e Paola nos ajudaram recomendando passeios, preparando um box de café da manhã para os dias que saimos de madrugada para os passeios. A qualidade humana dos funcionários é excepcional. Recomendo!!!

A senhora Naya que nos servia o café da manhã era muito atenciosa e amável e as recepcionistas Maria José e Paola nos ajudaram recomendando passeios, preparando um box de café da manhã para os dias que saimos de madrugada para os passeios. A qualidade humana dos funcionários é excepcional. Recomendo!!!

Lodge Quelana is a true oasis in the desert. It’s a lovely, peaceful, well-maintained, small boutique hotel with private cottages. The beautiful rustic-modern architecture and interior design is perfectly suited for its setting. The staff is friendly and helpful. Mariajose, the receptionist for the majority of my stay, went above and beyond the call of duty to help with organizing tours, dinners, and taxis; the personalized service was greatly appreciated. As the hotel is located out of the town center, it is helpful to have a car, since there were occasional delays in getting a taxi. Overall, I highly recommend Lodge Quelana.

Fantastic experience. The lodge is truly an oasis in the Atacama desert. Not over the top luxurious… just a quiet, lovely and spacious facility. If you are renting your own car then this is a fantastic option. It’s only 5 min outside of town but it has the advantage of being apart from the bustle and noise of the town. Yet easy enough to drive into town for meals or supplies. At Lodge Quelana, everyone was super helpful and nice. Natalia and Paola are true credits as service personnel. They were more like concierge service folks than receptionists. The pool was nice and rooms/baths new and clean. And big! The place is quiet and has access to a platform for star gazing. I’m so glad we picked this spot.

We had a wonderful stay at the lodge Quelana. Our room was lovely. The best part was the staff. Natalia was super amazing as were the breakfast staff. Natalia spoke great English and was so helpful with everything. Great vibe in this place. It's a quiet hidden away spot. Highly recommend.

The lodge is an excellent place to stay for those who want comfort in peace and quiet. Located just outside San Pedro (a few minutes by car), it provides everything necessary for rest, relaxation and rejuvenating yourself after your Atacama experiences. Cabañas are spacious, comfortable and very clean. But what made it especially worthwhile for us was an outstanding level of service. Many thanks to Natalia (who was a huge help in solving a frustrating problem) and Paula at the reception desk who both went above and beyond to respond to our questions and needs as well as Jenni and Naya in the breakfast room who did a great job. If we could, we would have stayed longer.

I had the most amazing stay at Lodge Quelana. One of the 3 accommodations with air con in Atacama, it is located out of town so you need a car unless you are happy to pay the small 6k CLP fee to get to town. The area is serene and beautiful though, out of the noise and dusty bustle of the township. I struggled with the altitude and heat so this place was a godsend. Breakfast was lovely and variety was decent for the included meal. The best thing about Lodge Quelana was the exemplar service. Best service I have ever received from a hotel from my travels worldwide. Natalia in reception was so accommodating and extremely responsive, going the extra mile to make my staff even more amazing such as ordering me my taxis even when I was in town and wanted to get back to the lodge, or making me a breakfast tray when I came back from a really morning day tour (at 1pm!), or being very generous with a late check out for me. Thankyou for being a luxurious and nurturing hotel in the desert, I really enjoyed my stay here!

Outstanding !! We loved how they took care of us. All the staff were amazing, Natalia and Yasna were exceptional with their customer service. Following their advice and recommendations on the local surroundings made our stay even more enjoyable. Everything was so well planned and designed, from the original welcome tour to the final day facilities available for swimming, showering and luggage storage after check out times. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and very well maintained. We felt so welcome, surrounded by smiles. Thank you! We highly recommend this lodge!

Wow. What a great place to stay! Out of the city, which was nice. I think you certainly need a car if you’re wanting to stay here. Very quiet and the staff were incredible! Really made our trip to the Atacama special. Breakfast was delicious each morning and the pool side was lovely on our rest days or in between tours. Highly recommend!

Beautiful lodge just outside San Pedro. Taxis are about £5 and reception will call for you, restaurants are more than happy to arrange a return. It is away from the bustle of San Pedro and very peaceful. Staff are brilliant. We had a standard room, there was sufficient space, it was spotlessly clean, well equipped and well presented, we were very impressed. There is a lovely pool area and each room is self contained with outside seating. Only breakfast is served, this was very good, on other days we ordered the packed breakfast which was always ready for us and enjoyable. We felt well looked after, nothing was too much trouble and the lodge itself is a beautiful place to stay.

Perfect choice when visiting Atacama! The Lodge is beautifully designed. The rooms are large, well equipped and comfortable. Each is extremely private. The staff are remarkable - everyone was super friendly and helpful. It's located a mile or so outside the town, so you need a car, but the result is peace and quiet and less dust. Very highly recommended!

O lodge quelana é incrível, exatamente como nas fotos da propriedade. Fomos de carro de calama até o hotel (melhor forma de conhecer o atacama). Tem um estacionamento amplo, os quartos são confortáveis e com ar condicionado/aquecedor - que faz toda diferença - pois durante o dia faz bastante calor e a noite bastante frio e eventualmente você ficará no hotel durante o dia após algum passeio na madrugada. Tudo estava muito limpo e o café da manhã é muito bom, a equipe do hotel é extremamente cordial e simpática, sempre com um sorriso no rosto e disposta a ajudar. A localização é um pouquinho depois de san pedro de atacama (vindo de calama), coisa de 4 minutos de carro, o que dá mais um ponto positivo para o local: silêncio e baixa poluição da luninosidade.

Lodge Quelana is a beautiful place to stay. It's outside if town, so you have the opportunity to see the clear night skies from their observation deck. The rooms are tastefully decorated and the breakfast had a great variety. To get into town, you need to drive, but the peace and quiet is worth it. After all, the town is not why you would come to the area; it's the landscape and the stargazing.

After having passed through San Pedro de Atacama on the way to the property, we were so pleasantly surprised by the contrast that experience provided. The hustle bustle and dust of SPA was left behind for a quiet lush shaded oasis in the desert. The cooing of doves in the trees greeted us to our home for the next five days. The welcome we received from the staff was superb, and that experience stretched across everyone there. Breakfast was a joy every day, greeted with warm smiles and offers of a wide and completely satisfying spread of tasty foods. The room was spotless, private and oh so quiet and peaceful. The location offers easy access to the town, as well as the wider Atacama area. When we return to the Atacama, Quelana will be our first choice for base of operations. Thank you all!

Only constructive criticism / feedback: would have loved to see more variety at the breakfast.. starting from avocado or tomatoes or any kind of veggies? Other than that, all great!

O Lodge fica a 4,5km da Vila de San Pedro, Então recomendo para quem vai de carro. A única refeição que servem é café da manhã , para jantar e almoçar necessita ir à vila. Acho que poderia ter mais ganchos para pendurar toalhas no quarto e banheiro. E achei que o ar condicionado não da conta do calor. O café da manhã poderia ser mais diversificado, mas atende bem. Funcionários super atenciosos e simpáticos Nos adoramos nossa hospedagem.

Hotel is a little out of town, and hard to find (no signage really, dirt road) but very quiet and comfortable. The owners and staff are all women, except a grounds keeper, all very kind. Breakfast was lovely. Pretty pool, perhaps underutilized, with nice alcoves around it where you can spend a few hours. Rooms are nice little cabanas, bathrooms partially open (but very private), which I liked.

Everything about the 4 nights I spent at Lodge Quelana was wonderful. A beautiful oasis, nestled on the outskirts of San Pedro with a serene, tranquil vibe.
