My stay at The Alto Atacama was truly memorable, nestled in a stunning setting that felt like a retreat from reality. The service provided was very attentive, making me feel welcomed throughout my visit. The rooms were comfortable but lacked air conditioning, which could be an issue during the hotter months. Dining was a delight with a broad selection of included wines, although restaurant service was sometimes a bit slow. Overall, it was a remarkable experience showcasing the beauty and adventure of the Atacama Desert.
