La Estancia Hotel Ica

Pros: Beautiful common area with pool and bar, great for relaxin, reading etc. Room was comfortable.

Cons: Location is not great - no supermarkets or evening restaurants anywhere nearby. Hotel claimed to offer dinner but were surprised when I asked, and then only offered spaghetti bolognese.

Well recommend

Pros: Great team Relatively new building Great location Nice clean room Great hot water shower Nice large pool for those who dare swim in cold weather 😅

Cons: Very minimal breakfast 🍳 Coffee is never hot enough but they will be happy to warm it up for you in microwave

Great value for money

Pros: Staf was amazing. Very helpful with everything. Swimming pool and outside area is great. Location is fine. It’s a 15min walk (past a road though, not very pedestrian friendly) or a 1/2€ uber.

Cons: Because of the door (glass door with blinds, you can see it on the picture in the listing), you dont get the best privacy. Light also comes through.

Pros: Just 10 minutes from oasis. Really nice and helpful staff. Modern facilities just missing air con. Still comfy though. Would defo recommend

Good value for money - optimal place for 1 night

Pros: * Close to Huacachina oasis and all activities * Many party places in walking distance if you want * Nice small clean pool to chill * Relatively quiet in the night * Free bikes * Good value for money

Cons: * Consider that it's pretty hot and you might need aircon * Mosquitos * Breakfast is very basic

Lovely and modern, staff are amazing. Close enough to huacachina but hidden out of the way. Rubbish shower.

Pros: Lovely modern hotel, amazing staff, comfy bed, spacious room.

Cons: Shower had no power at all and it’s a little hidden out of the way

Pros: A nice and clean hotel with a friendly staff, pool, bar & restaurant and close to Huacachina.

Cons: Rooms don’t have AC, actual blinds for the windows / glass door and no refrigerator in the room.

Lovely Stay

Pros: Very nice and clean bedrooms! We loved the pool and the outdoor space! It is only 15min from Huacachina without being as expensive or loud. The staff were always super lovely and nice and they have free bikes and sand boards for the guests which was amazing. A lot of people complained about the food policies in the reviews but we order food from outside and we eat it in the outdoor space and the staff were super nice about it! Even offer cutlery and plates if needed so please always take hotel policies with a pinch of salt and check with the hotel staff what’s appropriate it and what’s not, don’t just complain about it without even checking what those policies means!

Cons: Even though the bedrooms have fans they can get really stuffy and hot. It needs a bit of ventilation to let the air move around however that wasn’t a deal breaker for us.

Good accommodation

Pros: They were friendly and the atmosphere was so chilled with a nice swimming pool.

Cons: There is a night club nearby that made music until 4am. Luckily we were very tired and slept well.

Pros: The room with bathroom looked new - modern, pretty and spotless. Great courtyard with a clean pool and lounge chairs to relax at. We were a little off season so it was peaceful which is exactly why we chose it over Huacachina. Freshly prepared breakfast in the morning was super nice. The staff were friendly and helpful. 10-15 minutes walk to the oasis or you can catch a moto taxi by the main road.

Cons: None of this is about the hotel, just the area, the hotel itself is amazing! - not much choice for food around, unless you wanna eat at night clubs or fast food. Huacachina is close enough though, or I believe you can order some food at the hotel. There are a few nearby night clubs that blast music at night. It was far enough so it didn't bother me but light sleepers might have a problem.
