Originally built in 1960 and once the home of the owner's grandmother, Hare Nua Hotel has been carefully transformed into a charming boutique property that retains its close connection to Rapa Nui heritage. Combining traditional island influences with modern comforts, the hotel offers a relaxed atmosphere, personalised service and an authentic sense of place. Surrounded by tropical gardens and local character, it provides a peaceful retreat while remaining close to the heart of island life.
OUR OPINION:
We love Hare Nua's authentic connection to Rapa Nui culture and its friendly, home-from-home atmosphere. Its central location makes exploring Hanga Roa easy, while the peaceful gardens provide a welcome place to unwind between island adventures.
