The property was beautiful, clean, and the energy from all the guests and the staff was friendly and energetic. I would highly highly recommend this location! They have a lovely rooftop area where you can sit and enjoy the view of the dunes as well.

We had a great stay here. Location was excellent and the bar/cafe area was lovely to relax in. Only suggestion would be a lift to make getting to the top floors with your luggage easier.

Okay hotel

Unsure if there are better hotels in Huacacina. Our room was clean but very basic. Small TV. Loud until 11 but after that it was very quiet. The tiki hut offered good food. Small pool but did the job. Our friend had a room that smelled old.

The word “hostel” usually is negative sign for me but bananas was comfortable, cozy, and clean ! There was slight noise during the night or early morning but nothing unbearable. It was also in a prime location.

Absolutely Amazing

Absolutely incredible. Was very surprised. I got the bed with 2 bunk beds, so 4 people. Comfortable beds with courtain for privacy, good AC and amazing bathroom. In my opinion, the bed and the bathroom are both better than standards. Outside area is also amazing, food and drinks are pretty good and also, the bar/restaurant is has some of the best reviews in Huacachina, which is great. Related to that, the breakfast was good too. The hostel offers a back passage to the path to the main point of Huacachina, with access to basically everything. The roofttop is pretty nice, but it could be more useful hehe

So close to perfect!

Very beautiful and cozy hostel. The vibe was very good the food and service was excellent, the room was nice and clean however air-conditioning or additional fans would’ve made a huge difference for the better.

Nice place and friendly staff. My one complaint is that they played loud music later into the evening. I thought at 10 pm the music would go off but they only turned it down a bit. It was still quite loud. We had an early morning out the door to catch a bus back to Lima so it was difficult to sleep. I’m not sure when the music finally turned off because I managed to fall asleep with the help of ear plugs. Otherwise the location was nice as was the property itself. The bed was comfortable. Everything was clean. We booked the sand buggy tour through them and that was a lot of fun too.

El Guapo Goes Bananas

This was by far our favorite place in all of Peru. The staff was incredible, the food was better than ANY of the high-end restaurants we ate at, and the people we met along the way were equally as amazing. I can't say enough about Bananas. Huacachina is amazing in and of itself!

A wonderful hotel. Breakfast should include bacon instead of Weiners. Nice a quiet with exception of the street dogs barking. Very annoying however this is not the hotel’s fault

Was pleasantly suprised with this Hostel. We had a private room with bathroom. The room was updated nicely, had AC, and the bed was nice. We had a view of the Oasis from our room. It was loud but during the day, when the bar/restaurant closed at 11pm the music turned off and was quiet (no need for earplugs even). Food was okay, breakfast wasent anything fancy but it was included. When we visited all the roads had been dug up so the area around the hostel wasent the easiest to walk around.

Choose for the common areas and social aspect!

Great: tours and activities arranged by the property for a very reasonable price (35 soles / ~$9 for a 2 hour wine and Pisco tasting including transport.) Social environment. Room was a bit lackluster, bed and linens not super comfortable but the shower was great. Price is high for the quality but understandably so because of the location of the small oasis, and the swimming pool.
