Featuring an outdoor pool, a garden with hammocks and a rooftop terrace with views of the oasis, Bananas Adventure offers accommodation with free WiFi in Huacachina oasis in Ica. The commercial area is 3 km away.

This was our first night in Peru after 2 full travel days so when we arrived we were happy with our choice in the oasis. The room had everything we needed - comfy bed, private bathroom with shower and the most important - hot water. There was wifi although we used our esim service. Our room was on the second floor overlooking the lake and the sand dunes. It was clean which is hard to achieve considering the amount of sand around. The room temp was pleasant and we didn't use the provided fans. The hostel has a pool (we didn't use it so can't comment), a bar and a restaurant. They gave us a free drink each upon arrival which was a pleasant gesture, considering the outside temperature which was 32 degrees Celsius when we arrived (a lot cooler at night). The restaurant seemed to work all day and until late at the evening with some nice things on the menu, both local and international. We were there on Saturday so for dinner we had to wait more than an hour to be served. The kitchen and the drinks were nice. Of course it was loud until at least 23:00 pm but this is clearly stated and we were too tired to even mind it. We booked a sand boarding and buggy tour directly with the hotel and were happy with the service because it was easy. Perhaps there are more "luxurious" tours around but we were too tired to search. The price was reasonable and it was a good way to meet fellow travelers. What we enjoyed most in the hostel was the rooftop terrace where we spent most of our free time overlooking the dunes. Staff spoke some English and we could pay by card which was convenient. They booked a taxi for us back to Ica.

This location offers you the perfect mix of adrenaline, hiking and views. Just a 10 minutes walk from the hostel and you will encounter a hidden paradise. Golden sand, a beautiful boulevard and an endless horizon will accompany you while you spend the day in the Oasis of Huacachina.

The staff went above and beyond for us! We arrived early and they prepared our room for us so we could check in, which was so nice after a long night bus! Only a 10 minute walk to the Oasis and close enough to party, but far enough away to sleep without noise 😊

. Clean, affordable and perfect location. . Hauncachina is known for its nightlife so it can get extremely loud with the music and partying but our hotel was quiet and serene. Other tourists that paid more elsewhere complained about not being sleep due to this noise. Had a wonderful time and would stay here again.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Great location away from most of the noise at night. Bar was reasonably priced and lack of air con wasn't a problem with windows and fan. Staff were friendly and organised a very reasonably priced dune boarding trip for us. Seemingly the cheapest hostel in Huacachina (still more expensive than the rest of Peru).

    The apartment is spacious and feels comfortable and we were able to sleep well. We didn't check out the rooftop pool as there was an all night party happening while we were there. The wifi in the apartment is really slow, but the owner gave us an alternative login and it worked fine. The location felt safe, although a little far from the town square (although it's very easy and cheap to get a tuk tuk right outside).

    A great social hostel, very friendly staff. Lots of activities for the evening and even in the day time, it had a relaxed atmosphere around the pool side. Rooms were spacious and lockers were adequate. Great location as well and happy hour was a pretty good deal.

    Nice room and comfy beds - exceeding expectation of a hostel. The whole place had a nice vibe, guests could chill by the pool or drink at the bar. Good breakfast and a free welcome drink at the bar. Great location with direct access to the promenade and oasis. Overall great value, highly recommend this place if you’re in Huacachina!

    Great Location, big tents with comfy beds ! They do have a great pool and clean, modern bathrooms. Additionally they have a great chill area right at the pool. The staff is extremely polite and they offer an awesome service ! You’ll get a nice breakfast as well! The food in general is pretty good, drinks as well. Furthermore the location is right next to the entrance of the desert. You just need to get out of the camp to enter the desert. One of the best Hostels I’ve been so far ! Parking lots within the Camp are available as well.
