Great place to stay!

Awesome spot to stay slightly out of the main centre. This meant it was a bit quieter! Great breakfast and awesome setup, one of our faves in Peru. Views of the desert 😊

The property is a little oasis next to huacachina. The advantage of not being directly in that “disneyland” is that in this way you really feel calm and relaxed, you can chill at the pool, take advantage of the restaurant (delicious food and honest prices for the area, where tbh in the oasis everything is not great and much more expensive), 5 mins by tuktuk to the dunes. They also offer activity of dune bugging and surfing, very cooll and easy to arrange. The owners are super kinds and available for any request. The pool is great, breakfast is top. Recommended

An oasis in itself! Great stay at The Upcycled Hostel!

Great stay at The Upcycled Hostel - this place is like an oasis in itself! Lovely pool and seating area in the garden to chill out. Good food and drink menu at the restaurant. The room was comfortable, although a bit warm but we had openable windows and a large fan. Really friendly staff. Great value for money. Would 100% recommend!

Amazing hostel, more like a hotel, 100% recommended

One our favourite hostels we’ve ever stayed at, more like a hotel than typical hostel. Spotlessly clean, amazing quirky design using recycled materials, comfortable bed and great shower. Fully relaxed here just a shame it wasn’t for longer. The owner made such a special effort to cook some gluten free food for me which was very much appreciated. They allowed us to relax in the garden and use the pool after check out until our bus for due to leave that evening. Thanks so much for a lovely stay.

Great hostel for a relaxing stay close to Huachuchina

The location is great, only a 10 minute walk to Huachuchina and quiet enough to get some decent rest at night. The staff were all lovely and food was good. It's perfect for anyone looking for a relaxing stay in the desert.

Quiet hostel in Huacachina

We stayed in Upcycled Hostel 1 night during our stay in Huacachina. Fatima is really nice, replied to all our questions already before we arrived and organized the transfer to and from the bus station. The hostel is not exactly in the oasis, but not really far. I don't know if it is feasible to walk to the oasis, specially in the night, but the hostel has a tuk tuk service that in 5 minutes brings you to the oasis. The hostel has a nice ambient, very coloured and comfortable. It is not a party hostel like the ones in the oasis, so it is suitable for who wants to stay near the oasis but requires a bit more tranquillity. The hostel also has a restaurant that serves dinner and lunch.

Overpriced for the private room. OK for one night.

Lovely surroundings within the grounds. Loved the resident cats!

Brilliant outdoor communal area. While it is located 5mins outside of the oasis, this allows it to be much bigger than hostels inside it. It was also extremely easy to get a taxi into the oasis, the hostel also has its own tuk tuk. Great staff, nice decoration and good food.

The bed was very comfy and the staff were really nice. The bloke who was usually on the door gave me a ride in his tuktuk for 10 soles back to the coach station which made things very easy. Food was OK and pisco sours were great :) Some may see the distance to walk to Ica itself and Huacachina as a negative but I liked being halfway between both. Huacachina took 20 mins and into the main city about half an hour if I remember correctly.

Oasis before the oasis

Oasis in the middle of chaos. We were there on Peruvian Independence day and this hostel was a quiet and cool oasis amidst the chaos of Huacachina.
