Hacienda Santa Cristina is a beautiful property. Upon entering, you feel like you just arrived at a private estate. There are various fruit and vegetable gardens, and multiple buildings all designed with an old-style South American charm. The property is quite large and is immaculate throughout. The rooms are situated overlooking tranquil gardens and an appealing main pool area. There is a second pool, as well as a hot tub, on the property that is near the rooms, which is very convenient. Both are well set up with chairs and are very clean, and offer food and drink services. There is a huge restaurant which adjoins the main pool where you can also dine throughout the day. In my opinion, everything written regarding this property, almost all positive, does not fully capture just how wonderful this place really is. Everything is clean and the gardens are groomed to perfection. The rooms and bathroom are spotless and spacious and the bed was very comfortable. Each room has its own porch with a table and chairs. There are several vineyards within walking distance, surrounded by rolling hills, that overlook the property. The breakfast is excellent and can be served to you right in your room if you prefer. This was a nice option as we ate it on our porch each morning. The dinners were very tasty and well presented. The staff was amazing in all aspects. Every person we encountered would greet you with a warm smile and was willing to help you with anything you needed. Lastly, I want to mention the owner, Juan Pablo. He greeted us the moment we arrived and went above and beyond to make us feel at home. He was there for us the entire time and gave us many suggestions to explore Chile on the rest of our trip. All his suggestions were spot on. He could not have been nicer. I would stay here again if the opportunity arises. Just book your room and don’t worry about a thing. Juan Pablo and his professionally trained staff will take care of the rest.

    It was very quiet. Only the two of us staying here perhaps because it was a full moon. The rooms are lovely. Good shower and facilities. Fab view from the windows over the bedroom. Parking is onsite and easy. Wifi only available in the reception area. Pool was lovely for a swim and the Pisco Sours were great. The breakfast included cereal, yoghurt, eggs, ham, cheese and bread. The staff were helpful and used google translate to help us. we arrived on a Monday and did not know that everywhere is closed to food after 5pm on Mondays - be warned. some places were open on Tuesday’s.

    I liked La Serena.

    I liked La Serena. It has all the basics and its a nice town with a beach. Really loved the japanese garden park. Keep in mind I am in my 60's. There are also several universities so there are a lot of young people. It's also close to pisco and wine makers and has access to telescopes and nature in the Elqui Valey. It also has a nice airport which is about an hour trip from Santiago. Nice place for a retired person to visit. Also, Coquimbo has a wonderful fish market and some sites to see.

    Lovely spot in Elqui Valley and very much worth a visit.

    Lovely spot in Elqui Valley and very much worth a visit. However, be forewarned if you are not fluent in Spanish and are going for stargazing. We went to the observatory and planetarium and were disappointed to find no English explanation anywhere at all. Nada. My Spanish wasn't good enough to derive much comprehension or pleasure from the narrator's talk on the night sky, as amazing as it was to see. Chileans have a distinctive accent that drops syllables and speak very fast. The guide showed no concern or mercy, unlike most other Chileans we met who slowed down, repeated words, etc. Another bilingual tourist tried gamely to keep us informed. I did NOT expect much English to be spoken in Chile, of course, but I'd hoped/expected that a tourist attraction with an international reputation would be different. Weeks before we travelled we emailed to ask if there was any English offered and never received a reply. Btw, there was plenty of English in various museums we visited in Santiago and an English audiotour at Neruda's incredible Isla Negra home. More annoying at the observatory tho' was that after the stargazing the whole audience was herded to an area where people were exhorted to buy corny souvenir photos. Unluckily for us, the strangers who shared our van up to the mountain top opted for the pix and we waited 75 minutes in the van til they showed up. Even the driver was fed up but he seemed unable to figure out what to do.

    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.

    It is a small town with character. You can reach the whole area if you rent a car, and enjoy places like the Artisan Market of Horcón, some of the Pisco distilleries, historical sites, etc. Tons of places to eat around the town Square with excellent food and ice cream. Our stargazing tour in Mamalluca Observatory was excellent. The Gabriela Mistral Museum is informative, easy to follow, and at the best international level.

    Pisco Elqui is a good hub for visiting the Valle del Elqui.

    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).

    La Serena is a good central point to lodge, but it's its surroundings that make it a special place. There's nothing really special about La Serena as a city itself, but its sister city Coquimbo, offers a more diverse variety in terms of landmarks and gastronomy. Valle del Elqui is an hour drive away from La Serena, offering fantastic experiences for star gazers and peaceful settings.

    Vicuña is not much of a destination by itself, but has shops and restaurants clustered around a central plaza. I recommend staying there as a base for exploring Elqui Valley. I suggest a few days in Vicuña for the vineyards and other valley sights, and a couple of days in a beachfront hotel in La Serena before departing.
