    We had an amazing stay at Upcycled Hostel Huacachina! The relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff made us feel right at home. The rooms were spotless and the showers were the best we've had in Peru. We loved the chill music playing throughout the day, and the breakfast was delicious. The highlight of our stay was definitely the buggy tour and sandboarding, which we booked through the hostel. We met some great people and truly enjoyed our time here. We highly recommend staying at Upcycled Hostel Huacachina for a relaxing and fun experience.

    There was nothing I didn't like 😊

    The location is convenient, just a 15-minute walk from Huacachina town, allowing for a peaceful stay away from the hustle and bustle. the rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable, ensuring a good night's sleep. the hostel offers a great atmosphere, with chillout music playing during the day, creating a relaxing vibe. the staff is friendly and accommodating, providing excellent service.

    the staff, especially Maria, were lovely and incredibly helpful. They offer fantastic tours and are very knowledgeable about the area. the beds were comfortable, and the shared bathrooms were clean. the atmosphere was great, perfect for solo travelers looking for a social but quiet retreat. And let's not forget about the adorable cats and dog that live on the property - such a bonus!

    No noise at all, slept very well. 😴.

    My recent stay at the Upcycled Hostel in Huacachina was fantastic. The hotel is beautiful and impeccably clean. The staff were the friendliest and most helpful I have encountered during my trip to Peru. They were really good too ensure a cute and comfortable experience. The included breakfast was tasty and the restaurant served delicious food. The beds were really comfortable and the dorm rooms were kept clean. The location, just a 10-minute walk from the oasis, was perfect as it provided a quieter and less sandy atmosphere. I highly recommend staying at this hostel.

    The staff were friendly and helpful, and the overall vibe of the place was so relaxed. The outdoor spaces, including the pool, were beautiful and perfect for relaxing. The hostel itself had amazing WiFi and hot showers, much appreciated. We also loved the delicious breakfast and the fact that the owner took such good care of every guest. The food at the bar was priced fairly and the portions were huge. We even got to enjoy free pisco sour tastings, a great perk. The location, although just outside Huacachina, was still convenient and only required a short walk or a quick taxi ride. we had an really good experience and would highly recommend the Upcycled Hostel Huacachina to anyone visiting the area.

    The Upcycled Hostel in Huacachina is an absolute gem! the hosts, Renzo and Andrea, go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. They even showed us the best local eateries and took us to the oldest Pisco estate. the hostel itself is beautifully designed with comfortable beds, hot showers, and a refreshing pool. the common areas are perfect for meeting fellow travelers. the food, especially the avocado chicken salad, is fresh and delicious. Highly recommended for bigger groups of friends looking for a relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

    Felt like family, no complaints.

    We had an amazing time at this hostel! The staff were so friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The pool was a major highlight, perfect for relaxing in the desert heat. The location was great, just a short walk to Huacachina where we enjoyed an exciting sand buggy tour with sandboarding. The hostel also recommended a fantastic tour that we booked through findlocaltrips.com. a fantastic experience!

    One thing that could be improved is the lack of a central area for socializing. It would have been nice to have a dedicated space with a table where we could have played cards and socialized with other guests.

    The hostel provided a vegan option for breakfast, which was a great bonus. The staff were friendly, attentive, and accommodating, especially the kitchen staff. The atmosphere was relaxed and there was nice music playing throughout the day. The room was comfortable, clean, and nicely furnished. The showers had excellent water pressure, the best we've experienced in Peru. The location was ideal, just a short walk or taxi ride away from Huacachina, allowing us to escape the noise and crowds while still being within reach of the main attractions. We also appreciated the option to book a dune buggy and sandboarding tour through the hostel.

    The lack of sufficient toilet paper and kitchen facilities was inconvenient. The breakfast options were basic, and the food prices were a bit high.

    I recently stayed at the Upcycled Hostel in Huacachina for 3 weeks and it was the best stay of my trip in Peru. The atmosphere was fantastic, with a great vibe, delicious food, and a lively bar. The owner Lorenzo was an amazing host, making sure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. The hostel itself is like an oasis in the busy area, providing a safe, relaxed, and friendly environment. The beds were incredibly comfy, the rooms and bathrooms were clean, and there was even a lovely pool to relax in. The location was perfect for all the main activities in the area, making it an ideal place to stay. I would definitely go back in a heartbeat.

    Would definitely recommend this hotel.
