Apartment HARE O HAUPIANO  

17 Feb 2025

The location of the house is a 15 minute walk from the town. The property is a small family owned cabin. It is a cute cabin with everything you need including a kitchenette. The property lies in a tropical green garden. The hosts Lucy and Juan are great. Lucy picked us up from the airport with flower garlands and gave us a short tour and introduction of the island. She also gave us recommendations for where to eat and tour guides. And the end of our stay Juan drove us to the airport with no extra charge. All in all, a place where you feel welcomed and are well taken care of.

The location is great only a 15 minute walk from the local town and amenities and even closer to a local shop. The property is a small family owned cabin and on the family land of Lucy and Juan. It is a lovely cabin with everything you need including a kitchenette. They are very environmentally conscious on the island which is lovely to see and recycling is great. The property itself has avocado, lemon and other fruit trees outside. The hosts provided ear plugs because there are roosters around the property which was very thoughtful and provided toiletries in the room and towels which was great because we only have limited space in our backpacks. The best thing about the property is not the cabin but the amazing hosts who are so kind and friendly and really helped us have the most authentic experience. The island is beautiful but the people and the culture really stole my heart. Juan picked us up from the airport with flower garlands and gave us a short tour and introduction of the island. He also dropped us back off at the airport with no extra charge just from the goodness of their heart and generosity. Lucy is indigenous Rapa Nui and taught us so much. In her day job she is a tour guide and she took us both days around the island on two full days tours (my partner translating from Spanish to English). She took us to see most of the island Moai heads, the polyglyphs, the crater and village, the Inca stones, the caves and even took us on a hike! Lucy answered so many of my questions and was incredibly knowledgable and wise in respect of the history and culture. She is so passionate about the island and the special history it holds and I am so grateful for sharing a piece of that with us. She also helped us reserve a spot at the traditional dance and took us, as well as showing us the stars on the beach.

Excellent accommodation with a little kitchenette just a 15 min walk from the Main Street. Lucy and her husband were very sweet and kind hosts. Organised drinking water, picked us up and dropped off at airport for no charge. Met is with flower garlands and gave us a very thoughtful departure gift. Would recommend to anyone coming to the Island. Very special stay!

The place is really good. It's a nice price for the quality of the space provided. You can request double bed or twin beds, just let the host know in advance. I really liked their interest in helping and making us comfortable ALL the time. You don't need to worry to pick-up a taxi at your arrival or departure, I'm sure they will be able to provide this service. There is a TV, you might need to connect your credentials to your favourite streaming services. The wifi works most of the time. I had one evening when it was slow since the rain impacted the network, but I don't use much internet. If you have Entel network, you can back up with your phone network. Towels were provided, which were useful to avoid space in ur bagagge. Supermarkets are in proximity t the site, like 2 mins away. The city center at 25 mins walking and the church at 10 mins walking. Ask for taxi numbers, so if you don't like walking, you can pay a taxi (between 3000-5000 clp the ride to the center). The washing machine service can be provided b the host at an extra cost.

Lucy and Juan are just so helpful and caring! Suggested things for us to do, dropped us off downtown (i.e. by the soccer field, the town isn't big!) Lucy drove us to a superb dance show (Karikari) and picked us up afterwards. There is a nearby shop where you can buy stuff for breakfast.

Everything was simply perfect. Lucy and Juan are incredible hosts. They took care of us since the first moment we stepped out of the plane, actually even before, suggesting us good restaurants to visit and a great guide for the island (Noeraŋi, highly suggested). The Hare o Haupiano is a family-run cute hotel, immersed in the nature but just 10 min on foot from the city center and many restaurants. During the staying Lucy and Juan helped us a lot, especially with my ankle, which I sprained during an excursion. When we left they gave us two presents and Lucy gave a pair of wonderful earrings to my wife as a farewell present. Such nice people and such a nice B&B at the same time are difficult to find. We can just suggest them and support Hare o Haupiano. Maururu!!

Warm-hearted young couple with lots of helpful information run H o H. Apartment is cozy, cute and spotless. All the restaurants, cafes, handicraft shops and the seafront are a walk down the hill. Tours pick you up at your location. Beautiful experience.
