Kachi Lodge

Amazing location but many issues due to very inconsistent food, service, and rooms. Examples of food problems included pork in vegetarian food, serving toasted white bread as French Toast for breakfast, running out of eggs and other essential items, and very few food choices. Examples of service problems included requests for food and water requiring constant reminders to be fulfilled. Examples of room problems include shower not working as well as water pump leaking water all over room. Althoug... Amazing location but many issues due to very inconsistent food, service, and rooms.

Examples of service problems included requests for food and water requiring constant reminders to be fulfilled.

Although the lodge has the intention and possibility of being 5 star until it addresses all these issues it deserves a 3.5 rating out of 5.

The location and view were amazing. I was the only guest when I visited. I was left completely alone at night when all the staff (other than a watchman) stayed somewhere else. I enjoyed the silence and tranquility very much! The dome was very warm (hot) during the day, but freezing during the night. The stove provided the heat for the bedroom, but not so much for the bathroom. Prepare for the cold going to the bathroom during the night. It took me a while to get used to the burner toilet.

If you enjoy a hot shower, it is a good idea to take it during the day as the water gets cold running through the pipe. Despite all the inconvenience, the staff was trying their best. The manager was on the site all the time to make sure everything working for me, even companied me to have a ride on the salt flat and handed me a warmer after a cold day. He was an angel! The chef was fantastic. Although I suffered diarrhea at the end of my stay, I enjoyed the food she prepared. My guide Alan took the mission to make everything possible for me. He is very talented in taking photos. He had all the great ideas for good photos. I admire Kachi Lodge's vision. They are learning and growing. They will get there.

This was a magical place! We were celebrating our anniversary and everything was perfect! There is no other way to do Salar the Uyuni. You are in the middle of the Salar, you wake up and go to sleep in the clouds with incredible sunsets and sunrise. The food was amazing, as well as the drinks and yes we tried Gustu in La Paz before coming here. The room is incredible for the fact that you are in a very isolated place, and things are not very accessible, there is heat at night and during the day ... This was a magical place!

The food was amazing, as well as the drinks and yes we tried Gustu in La Paz before coming here. The room is incredible for the fact that you are in a very isolated place, and things are not very accessible, there is heat at night and during the day we just kept the door open with plenty of fresh air (plan your trip accordingly). We did not have any complaints, we were completely catered to plus honestly no better option, otherwise you would stay in the salt hotels outside the salar definitely not the same experience trust me. They prepare a sunset view with some delicious snacks and drinks we got insane pictures and could not have been more romantic. They provided bikes and we had a blast riding around with no one in sight. We had daily plan activities with a private guide and driver. And yes the staff does not stay there, they stay at a near village, but there is always someone on sight in case something is needed. Overall a surreal experience and would not have done it any other way!
