If there was one thing about exploring Rapa Nui that surprised us the most, it would be that there was an incredible range of accommodation options available for visitors.
For an island so remote, we thought we’d be paying an arm and a leg to stay there, and as it turns out there are options available for everyone- from the most frugal budget traveler to those wanting all the bells and whistles (except for good internet- that one is impossible on the island, unfortunately).
As this information is often lacking in most reviews of visits to the island, and may be the deciding factor on whether or not you visit (you should), we wanted to publish this guide to Easter Island hotels so you know just what you are looking at when planning a visit to this incredible spot in the middle of nowhere.
📍 Hotels on Easter Island – Quick Tips
- Hotels for All Budgets: Easter Island has accommodations for all budgets, from camp grounds to hostels, budget hotels, and premium luxury hotels
- Centrally Located: Construction is limited outside of Hanga Roa, so most hotels are located within an easy walk from the town center
- Budget Options Book Quickly: The most budget-friendly options, including shared rooms in hostels, tend to book up early as accommodation options are quite limited on the island

Camping and Shared Rooms – Camping Mihinoa
When it comes to the absolute cheapest option you can find on Easter Island, the limited campsites are what you’ll want to consider. One of the nicest campsites on Easter Island is Camping Mihinoa, located roughly one mile from Hanga Roa.
We had friends who stayed at this campsite and visited it multiple times during our stay. The facilities are basic, but the grounds are large, tents can be mostly spread out, it is overlooking the ocean, and has just about everything you’d need if you are a fan of the camping atmosphere. Rates begin at around $20 US per person per night at the time of publishing.
Camping Mihinoa has limited private rooms as well, starting at $100 per night.
Budget Private Rooms – Hare o Ahani
For those who are looking for private accommodations, but are willing to sacrifice a bit of a walk into town (15 minutes+) in exchange for cost savings, many private rooms are available on the island.
One such accommodation with great reviews is Hare o Ahani, which features private rooms with a private bathroom and few amenities. A private room here can be as low as $60 US per night if sale prices are available.
Mid-Range Easter Island Hotels – Hotel Tea Nui
If you are willing to pay a bit more during your stay, many hotels closer to Hanga Roa offer a reduced walk (on the order of 5 to 10 minutes) and include upgraded amenities, free breakfast, and other features you’d expect from a mid-range hotel.
During our stay on Easter Island we booked at Hotel Tea Nui, located just under 10 minutes walking from Hanga Roa (near Camping Mihinoa mentioned above). We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel as the number of rooms were limited and it was fairly quiet at all hours. Prices here begin at approximately $130 US per night.
Premium Easter Island Hotels – La Perouse Rapa Nui
If money is no option for you, and you’re looking to stay at the very best, a few rooms on Easter Island exist for you. Prices at these rooms skyrocket from the next closest category, and rates often begin at $300 US per night or more.
At La Perouse Rapa Nui, this will buy you private suites, top notch amenities, and a concierge and ticket desk to help you plan whatever you need during your stay on the island.
Okay, so maybe we can’t all afford to rent out a multi-room villa with rooms of the moai, but hopefully this guide proves to you that visiting Easter Island can be possible no matter your budget. Book a good one, check out our tips for driving in Easter Island and get ready for a wonderful trip! So all we have to ask now is simply this: when are you visiting?

I love camping the most. There’s a tingling sensation when I sleep in the ground, feeling the nature, wrapping me cold yet it feels good and it’s the cheapest.. but really, I do love hugging the nature.
I haven’t been in Easter Island, and I can’t believe it hasn’t been on my list.. it’s there now.
Easter Island is one of our favorite places! I highly highly recommend it, and the camping option there is pretty good too all things considered!
