This is a magical place. Full of vegetation and nature. Stunning views over the valley. Take the tour of Pisco Mistral but I recommend choosing a different restaurant as Mistral restaurant is over priced for tourists. Locals dined with us and told us there a better authentic restaurants in the town. Next time we will get the food right. When in Elqui visit the observatories. It will be forever in my memory.

Pisco Elqui is a good hub for visiting the Valle del Elqui. Continuing the road you have the chance to visit an amazing winery (Viñedos de Alcohuaz) which has a shop with some really special wines (voted as Chile's best Syrah) and an (expensive, didn't do it) tour. On the way back make sure to stop at the small road-side house of Piuquenes Elqui Late Harvest where two former employees of the Alcohuaz vineyard make their own late harvest and are willing to tell you in detail about the valley and its wine-making tradition. In Pisco Elqui itself visiting the Pisco-makers of Doña Josefa" is a must. The family members guide you through an artisanal Pisco-making factory and the pisco you buy is only sold there, so make you sure you get some. Pisco Elqui's town square has some nice artisanal markets with interesting local products worth a visit. Two other absolute favorites of mine are Cavas del Valle for amazing wines (in particular the Moscatel ones) and the beer garden of Cerveceria Guayacan in Diaguitas (amazing beers, great service, good food and very nice setting).

This place is a lie, images in the site are not what it looks like when arriving. Most images are CGI or from other places. Internet runs like a snail even at the coffee room. Overpriced for what they are offering. The room is too hot, there is no safe as mentioned on the site. No laundry service, no touristic information, not even a tour through the facility when arriving. It is listed as a Hotel when not even offer a room service. All staff leave at 8 pm (good luck if you did not have dinner). Staff members just blame the current pandemic situation but they do not advice or provide any additional information on surrounding areas (lack of ideas to assist guest in case they need it). Room floor was noise, felt like walking on cracked glass. Behind the pool looks like they have a junk yard (broken chairs, tables, washers). Staff members only excuses that they are reforming the place. Power was out for about 5 hours during our last day, I never was informed, I asked that I needed to charge my laptop to keep working. They send me for few hours to another near facility so I could charge my laptop to keep working. The administrator don't know how to resolve situations and had lack of empathy for their guest. I DO NOT recommend this place for family with kids!!

Nice town, rent a car will be helpful as you can find many things to do within a 15-mile radius. Destileria Mistral has amazing food, El descanso del Elqui great pisco sours and definitely go for an astronomical tour, we did it with Nomades and was amazing!
