Spacious and adorned with local natural materials, the Catarpe rooms reflect the brilliant colors of the neighboring Atacama desert. From inside you can hear the sounds of the San Pedro River flowing down from the Andes Mountains to the valley; and as you step out to the terrace, you enjoy sweeping views of the Salt Mountain Range. The desert sun is filtered by the deep roof giving the rooms an ideal temperature and luminosity, from the moment you wake up until you go to sleep.
“Fantastic, dramatic lodge in the driest desert in the world. This lodge is entirely self sufficient, designed with its environment in mind, and managed with care and attention to detail. It is lovely… This is very very far away from the world and yet feels like home.”Annekgordon, Philadelphia, USA
LUXURY. COMFORT. EXPANSIVE VIEWS.
The Tilo Suite, Laguna in the Kunza language, has just been reimagined from the ground up, beginning with the addition every desert evening was waiting for: a heated private plunge pool in each suite. Chilean design studio Enrique Concha led the renovation with San Pedro de Atacama craftspeople, and the rooms now borrow their palette from the Catarpe Valley itself: warm woods, clay-textured walls, woven textiles, custom furniture in sand and terracotta, decorative pieces from local artisan makers.
The comforts remain discreet, with motorized curtains, independent climate control, and layered lighting, while the plunge pool water is recovered via filtration, in keeping with our sustainable ethos. Gaze at the stars from your outdoor shower, and enjoy breathtaking views of the Salar mountains and Andean hills from your spacious outdoor deck.
“From the Suite, I could see uninterrupted views of desert dunes and mountain peaks. It was an amazing experience to sit on the terrace and admire the dramatic vastness of the desert. Every morning walk for breakfast took me through the garden and to the Llama corral. It was really the best way to see the Atacama desert!”Stephanie Kalmus, New York
