Nayara Hangaroa

Great location - close to airport, meters from sea, quiet location. Room size ample - plenty of space and good storage. Decent bathrooms. But not clean, had to ask for rooms to be cleaned on check in. Floors also made of odd material that leaches into feet. Restaurants - good selection at breakfast - dinner quite limited and pricey. Pool looks great but a bit worn and needs a clean. Spa lovely, numerous options. Staff - friendly and responsive on site but took days to respond to enquiries in advance, and only responded to my enquiry about picking us up from the airport after we had checked out!

Nayara Hangaroa Resort and spa was an experience not to miss. Natalia was such a great masseuse! I would not miss the spa experience. The rooms were clean and the bed was very comfortable. The people were kind and welcoming. Each meal we had there did not disappoint from the presentation to the taste. We have no complaints from our time there.

Apart from the Italian coffee, the location and pool, this place is very solid but not a persuasive 5 star experience. A bit understaffed, everything is nice but there is nothing remarkable. I could only visit on specific dates, but I would recommend looking through booking dot com or some other places for better prices than the website- it is not worth the over 500 dollars a night rate. For those allergic to dogs, be aware that there are many on the Island, and many of them run around the hotel grounds, the pool and outside restaurant seating (maybe not only the hotel's fault, since some tourists feed and encourage them). The rooms are nice but show some wear (rickety lamps), and the place is clean but not spotlessly so (glass of sliding doors). The grounds are lovely and landscaped, at night a bit dark and the bumpy walkways could pose a walking challenge (I used my cellphone on occasion). One doesn't go to Easter Island for hotels or restaurants or to enjoy bargain prices - so it is important to have realistic expectations...

We have never been so sad to leave a place as we were to leave Rapa Nui, and specifically the wonderful people at Nayara. The excursions were beyond compare, the history and culture here are so unique and incredible. The staff at Nayara truly made this the most special week we’ve ever experienced as a family. Thank you to all (most especially Tau Mana, Paulo, Isabel, Vaika, Diego and Wally)! We will never forget you! Iorana y Maururu

Hotel was great, had good views, great room and privacy. The concierge was great, guides decent. Overall good stay but not as great as our stay in other Nayara properties. Also we are Vegetarian and had limited food options here. Maybe due to remote location of island they cant get everything. In other Nayara properties, chef used to source ingredients if we asked for anything specific out of the menu. Which we didnt see here. Going with 4 out of 5.

The hotel & resort was kept very clean and tidy at all times. All of the staff was extremely friendly and went out of their way to be helpful. We enjoyed dinner each night with service from Barbara and she was truly wonderful each night. The homemade ice creams they offered were outstanding. All of the excursions were timed well and informative about the island and it’s history, making the total experience package worth it to us. The spa was also great and easy to book for the following day with very fair prices. Overall the hotel and activities they offered were well worth the price of the room and full experience package and made the entire vacation enjoyable on Easter Island.

Love love this hotel- beautiful view and great food too. Staff were super friendly and nice. The rooms were very clean, with beautiful bathrooms and very comfortable bed. The sets were so Special that I could never forget the memories that were made here

Enjoyed our stay at the Hangaroa Eco Village! The location is fantastic - right across the street is the shore - beautiful place to sit and watch the waves crash in! A short walk takes you into town and to the bay where you can watch the surfers catching waves. The Hangaroa Village offers guided tours of the island - highly recommend these tours! Sunset at Tahai, Sunrise at Tongariki, Orongo village, the quarry, and many more places to explore. Our guide, Tiko, was the absolute best - he made the tours fun as well as educational! Very knowledgeable and very good at explaining things to us - we really felt that we got to know the island and the people who live there! When we were done with touring, it was great to relax and have a first class meal back at the Hangaroa Village. Everyone at the Village was friendly and welcoming - made us feel at home! It takes a bit to get to Rapa Nui, but it is totally worth it and staying at the Hangaroa Eco Village is definitely the way to go!

Beautiful hotel and lovely rooms however restaurant service was very very slow which was frustrating when we had limited time for lunch. The staff were very friendly but I think more training is needed.
