Explora Rapa Nui - All Inclusive

“Amazing!!!!!”

Explora is a highly recommended, top-tier experience.

“You must go!”

Location was exceptional, atmosphere great, room very nice. Staff was amazing, they accommodated my dietary accomodations well, and the food was very good. It was nice to have fresh tuna. There was buffet breakfast & lunch + option to order off the menu.

“Amazing Facility, Guides, and Staff”

This place is the best! First of all it’s gorgeous. Secondly the excursions are incredible. Third the staff is amazing. Fourth the company seems to care about the history and culture of the island. I will definitely stay in another Explora resort !

Grounds are beautiful and the rooms are comfortable. The upsides - The food is excellent & the staff at the restaurant is lovely. Some of the guides (David and Valentina in particular) are terrific and eager to answer questions with kindness and facts. They hire local Rapa Nui staff. There is a nice pool, jacuzzi and sauna. The scenery is gorgeous and seeing the sunrise and sunset, and the horses and cows is beautiful. The food is great - super healthy and fresh. And we really enjoyed speaking with the other guests we met. The downsides - not all of the guides seem happy to be working there and it comes through their guest engagement. And most importantly, It’s not quite the “make your own adventure” as they say it is. They are focused on making sure you see the five major sites, but there is limited flexibility in “how” and when you see them. And the pushiness of the guides feels a little bit like they are selling a quota of tours with a cap on the number of guests. For example, we wanted to bike to Anakena Beach and they told us it wasn’t possible and we needed to hike. And then when we arrived at the beach, the Explora team was loading bikes from others who had ridden there. Another couple who was staying for a week told us that they wanted to break up the core sightseeing with a long hike every other day, and the guide wouldn’t let them so they ended up with three days of 6+hour treks. I would stay here again bc this is a luxurious oasis on the island, and the upsides exceed the downsides, but just be aware of the downsides and manage your expectations accordingly.
