The hotel boasts a stunning appearance, yet the service fell short of expectations considering the price point. Upon my early arrival at 8 a.m. – a common occurrence due to fluctuating flight times – I received no orientation regarding hotel amenities, including the necessity of dinner reservations. Moreover, a Wi-Fi outage compounded the issue, with no contingency plan communicated. When seeking local information, I was merely provided with a phone number, lacking any helpful guidance. It’s worth noting that dinner reservations are a requirement, a detail overlooked one day due to lack of network during a tour. Despite a request for assistance before departing for an 11-hour bus ride, the hotel declined to provide even a basic meal. Lastly, there was a discrepancy between Expedia’s quoted rate of approximately $340 for three nights and the higher amount charged upon settlement at the hotel.

The setting is wonderful, perched at the edge of Lisera beach where you can witness the sunset and enjoy sounds of the breakers. The building has a modernist look with many wood finishes. No air conditioning but always an ocean breeze.

We love birds so this was a paradise, right on the ocean and hundreds of sea and shore birds right out on the rocks at the water. This area would be perfect with a car as it is a bit far from the main part of town (although we appreciated this for relaxation and did just fine using Uber). Staff were very friendly. The sunsets could not be better.

What a view!
Very nice! Located between 2 public beaches. Easy parking. Quick check-in. English spoken. Comfortable bed, spacious room with awesome view. Really enjoyed our stay. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was a treat, probably the best during our 6 weeks in Chile. Will return.

Very comfortable stay with wonderful knowledge about local area. Really helpful. Loved hearing the waves crashing just outside our room. Only minor downside is the fishy aroma due to the proximity of the sea.

The whole week long stay was perfect... the rooms have a full floor to ceiling wall with a door to the terrace that makes you feel like you are in the sea... the bedding is beyond fabulous, 800 count sheets and feather pillows... impeccable staff that takes care of everything.... outstanding full course breakfast... wonderful French press coffee... 1.5 kil to town, easily walkable but bus across the street... if you go to Arica, it is the only place to stay❤️

Sea-front hotel
A sustainable small hotel (18 rooms) on the sea front, this hotel benefits from being far enough away from the city centre to avoid any hubbub and busy-ness, while being no more than a short (15-25 minute) walk away from the main square and most of the restaurants. The waves will (if that's your thing) both soothe you to sleep and wake you up, and the sea birds - gulls and pelicans, plus the odd vulture - will help you get out of bed in the morning. All rooms have a sea view; the hotel itself has a small, somewhat gravelly beach section, but you're only a few minutes walk from a couple of official, sandier beaches. The sustainable side of things mostly comes in the form of recommendations - limit how much water you use (Arica is one of, if not THE, driest city in the world); put your toilet paper in the bin, rather than the toilet - but these aren't hard to abide by. Your room gets a daily jug of potable water. The relaxed vibe of the hotel matches how the town itself has a remarkably laid-back feel, so you could probably spend as many days as you wanted to here. Alongside everything else, English is spoken widely by the staff, so it's refreshingly simple to make your needs known.

Luxury property at a steal price
What an absolute pleasure! I’m not one to write reviews but in this case an exception needs to be made. For the experience we had I would have been happy to have paid north of $300 USD a night. At $100 I feel like I’m taking advantage of someone’s generosity. The hotel property is stunning with an unreal view. The rooms are practically directly over the ocean. Meticulously appointed eco-hotel. The icing on the cake is the breakfast included in the price of a room. Fresh ground coffee served in a French press with pressed juice, eggs and ham and cheese sandwich, guacamole, more toast, jam etc.... Everytykgn beautifully presented and served at the lobby restaurant which sits right on the oceanfront. Having seen and been inside the other typical cookie cutter concrete block hotels on the more densely populated strip of Arica I can see this is without a doubt the best hotel in Arica. Anyone who has written a bad review of this hotel is the kind of person who enjoys microwaveable meals in front of the TV. Thanks Hein and the rest of the Apacheta staff that made our stay a truely memorable one!
