The hostess was gracious, personable, and helpful. The accommodations are simple but everything is clean and in order so good value for money. Breakfast was good.

Chez Hiva is a really nice place to stay in Rapa Nui, it has very good location at walking distance from the sunset spot (Ahu Tahai), the shopping street and restaurants area. The apartment is spacious, with an open area and kitchen downstairs, and sleeping area upstairs. The internet connection was good most of the time (better then we expected anyhow, after all you will be on the most remote island). Delphine received us very well, she is very kind and helped us with a lot of information and good recommendations for trips on the island, plus we could borrow beach towels. Overall we had a very good stay and we would come back.

The Hostel can be highly recommended. I had a very good sleep there. The place is situated very near to the center and this way everything is easy to reach in walking distance. Te Moai Sunset can be reached by 10minutes walk. The owner is very nice and she replied to all my questions prior visiting. For newbees: I can advice tours via rapanuitravel (2days), make a cycle tour across the island on your own on one day renting via Tahuti bikes and horse riding via Mahinatur tours. I usually had breakfast in bars near the ocean. I traveled off-season in August. It was great!

Room was sufficient for a good nights sleep, you can also purchase a 10L bottle of water for the room at a reasonable price. It’s a close enough walk to most things in town. Hot water was excellent.

The hostels are clean and tidy and bonus... with a nice vanilla aroma! Bathroom and toilet, clean and fresh.! A blue wall of a hostel and the decorations are great, a good choice of color for calmness and a sense of harmony within. Good location for proximity to the beach, to the center , to restaurants. A beautiful and evergreen garden for relaxation and an ideal place for meditation. Delphine and Lorena are warm and kind people, I like them a lot and have a lot of respect for them !! Greetings from a Bulgarian friend!

The tasteful decor in tropical style, cleanliness and host's hospitality. Lorena spoke English and was always available whenever we had a question. The place is hidden behind a large gate wrapped in passion vine. The units with separate entrances are concentrated around a paved yard where it's nice to sit in the evening and watch the stars. I loved the thatched roofs! Our room was equipped with a ceiling fan and a fridge, everything was neat and tidy. We did not order breakfast, but it was available upon request. Chez Hiwa is located on a quiet street, 10 minutes from the town centre. Ahu Tahai, famous for its sunsets, is 12-15 min by foot.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Chez Hiva. It is conveniently located for the airport, and the Ahu Tahai moai and the main shopping area of Hanga Roa are both within easy walking distance. We rented the Maíka duplex apartment, which was spacious and comfortably furnished. Our check-in went smoothly and Lorena the host was very helpful throughout our stay. The property is gated, so feels safe, and there is ample roadside parking outside, which is handy if you have a rental car.

La atención de Delphine es espectacular por su amabilidad y excelente buena disposición. La ubicación está a unas 5 cuadras de la caleta, las que se agradecen despues de comer tanto !! :D

Es ist ein Ort, an dem man den Geist der Osterinsel spürt. Die Gastfreundschaft der Besitzerin, der Service und die Freundlichkeit des Personals sind überwältigend. Wir haben uns hier sehr wohl gefühlt und sind schweren Herzens abgereist. Nach dem Buchen haben wir umfangreiche Informationen zur Einreise auf die Osterinsel, zum Nationalpark und zur Insel im Allgemeinen bekommen, ohne die vieles sehr viel schwerer gewesen wäre. Wir hatten unseren Guide über eine Agentur gefunden, besser wäre es gewesen, die Besitzerin zu fragen, sie ist gut vernetzt und wird auch hier gern helfen. Auch ihr Restaurant direkt am Meer ist exzellent , nicht teuer und auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.
