These Luxury Desert Hotels Are Modern Marvels
Alto Atacama Desert Lodge & Spa, Atacama Desert, Chile
This boutique property at the base of the Salt Mountains in Chile’s Atacama Desert is the perfect base from which to explore this region, an otherworldly landscape of red and burnt-orange sand and unusual rock formations that could make you think you’ve landed on Mars. Though there’s plenty to keep guests at Alto Atacama Desert Lodge all day – including spa and six pools – the hotel can organise more than 30 adventurous excursions into the desert, including mountain biking, volcano climbs and trips to Incan ruins.
