Hotel Mossone
Is an upscale and expensive hotel located in an old colonial hacienda in huacachina, with views of the oasis. prices here are decidedly geared towards foreign tourists, as room prices range from $80 to $150. the hotel features its own swimming pool and restaurant. definitely the nicest hotel in huacachina, but probably not the best option for backpackers or young people who might find the social scene there to be lacking.
Huacachinero
Is a popular budget hotel that is similar to, but more upscale than, the casa de arena hostal. the facilities, rooms, and swimming pool are nicer. the price is slightly more expensive. huacachinero doesnâ´t have a discoteca, and often is less crowded than the casa de arena.
Desert Nights
Is a good budget option. it is a hostal that is excellently located near the entrance to huacachina, and is owned by an american-peruvian couple. it is well-liked because it is clean and affordable. it has a restaurant with tasty food. however it lacks a discoteca and swimming pool. this is the only hostelling-international youth hostel in the area. best place if wifi availability is important.
