Great location, easy walking. Amazing breakfast! And Wolf and the crew make an amazing stay in Easter island! Our pre-booked tour cancelled on us the morning we arrived, the Taura’a staff organized a full day highlights tour before we finished our breakfast, and we had an amazing time! Totally saved our trip.

We LOVED our stay here! From the pre-check in communication to our ride back to the airport to go back to Santiago, it was amazing. Wolf, the owner, went above and beyond to ensure we had an incredible trip. The breakfast was wonderful, the fellow guests were great too! The location is super convenient to walk everywhere (with a mini market across the street as well). Don’t hesitate to book here- you will be well taken care of. We miss it already!

Taura'a is perfect. If you want to support Rapa Nui people, and get a true flavor for the island, this is the place to be. Manager Wolf and staff connect you to the history and culture of Rapa Nui, and make every aspect of the trip amazing. The breakfasts are extraordinary, too!

Great hotel. Grounds are covered in beautiful gardens and flowers. Location is great - walkable to most everywhere in Rapa Nui. Rooms have Air Conditioning and solid WiFi, which are tough to find on Easter Island. Special thanks to Edith, who assisted with tours and also cooks an amazing breakfast.

Amazing place to stay with all the amenities one needs. Edith is a 5 Star Host and her breakfasts are legendary. Hotel Taura'a is downtown Hanga Roa and walkable to everything; shops, restaurants, and harbor. Beautiful Grounds and lanai to relax. Highly Recommend, and don't forget to ask about Abuelita Taura'a.:-)

This hotel is a lovely property owned by an English speaking couple. It is in a very convenient part of town, and is in a beautiful part of the island. One big bonus is air conditioning and the home cooked breakfast each morning is amazing! They made it a lovely stay.

This is a lovely and very convenient place to stay. But the REAL attraction is Edith, the owner. She is a delightful women whose attention to detail and her guests is almost unprecedented in my experience. Like most hotels, even the nicest ones, I'll eventually forget the details. But I wont forget Edith. She made this a memorable stay.

This hotel is definitely 5 star. Anybody who wants to visit Easter Island and get that off their bucket list should stay here. Edith, the owner/manager picked us up at the airport and checked us in and fed us free excellent breakfast every day. The rooms are nice, air conditioned with free wifi. the hotel is centrally located and you can walk to everything good in Hanga Roa. Our tour operator picked us up and took us to all the good stuff and dropped us off at the hotel...After our vacation was over Edith drove us back to the airport....our vacation could not have gone better and Tauraa hotel is inexpensive when compared to others in the area. Edith is also of native Rapa Nui ancestry and can answer any question you have about Easter Island. If you are planning on visiting Easter Island, you really do need to stay here and I don't review many places I have been to and when I do I'm usually posting bad things but there is nothing bad at all about Easter island, Tauraa Hotel or Edith...I highly recommend to everyone!!!

Our hostess Edith is a TREASURE! We chose Hotel Tauraa for the photos of the beautifully landscaped grounds, with many sculptures and tropical plants. We never imagined how welcome and cared-for we would feel during our 3-night stay. First, we didn’t expect to be greeted at the airport with leis made by Edith from materials in her own garden. We missed out on that by hurrying out to begin the 15-minute walk to the hotel, but we still got the leis. ;) At the hotel, she immediately offered fresh juice and wanted to be sure that we had pre-booked tours of the island and artifacts, which we hadn’t. She immediately got on the phone to a couple of her best tour contacts and managed to book 2 days with Claudio who miraculously had a cancellation and was able to give us a private tour on both days (we could a whole review on how great HE was). We recommend contacting Edith after booking the hotel to ask her to arrange tours for you. The made-to-order breakfasts were artistically arranged, extravagant and delicious, including fresh-fruit smoothies. When we had a problem with our room’s refrigerator, Edith came right over and swapped it out. Her husband Bill is friendly, charming and helpful. We hope you have the opportunity to enjoy a unique island experience on Rapa Nui, which staying at Hotel Tauraa.

Agréable séjour malgré tout...

Je suis un peu gêné pour donner un avis sur cet hébergement ! Pour le tarif demandé je m'attendais à mieux...mais Rapa Nui se mérite et n'est pas donné, il faut le savoir !! L'endroit est très agréable, un beau jardin et très proche du centre-ville pour pouvoir tout faire à pied. L'idéal est de louer un scooter pour pouvoir se balader sur l'île. Par contre pour les sites archéologiques il faut absolument un guide local plus le "Pass Rapa Nui" évidemment !! Régis le beau-frère d'Édith est vraiment très bien, il est français mais connait parfaitement l'île et son histoire. Édith, la propriétaire, est charmante mais il vaut mieux être dans ses petits papiers ! Nous ne l'avons vu que pour le petit-déjeuner, qui est excellent par ailleurs. C'est elle-même qui le prépare et il change tous les jours. Elle est venue nous chercher à l'aéroport comme indiqué sur la réservation, mais il paraît que c'était une faveur car notre tarif bien que pas donné ne comprenait pas cette prestation !! Idem pour le retour... Malgré deux messages je ne savais pas trop à quoi m'attendre en arrivant. Bref tout c'est quand même résolu mais avec quelques remarques un peu déplacées à mon goût. À vérifier. Les chambres sont correctes mais relativement simples encore une fois pour ce tarif. Pour ma part j'ai trouvé l'endroit plutôt calme même si quelques voitures passent devant l'hôtel. Sur un séjour de quatre nuits les serviettes n'ont été changées qu'une fois et la chambre jamais nettoyée à mon avis !

Dishonestly Overcharge

When booking From Hotels.com we got 20% off but this hotel won’t charge you until you checked out and charge you price not match the price you booked previously. breakfast $20 per person per day which will be charged as well when check out. Please make sure you were charged correctly when check out . Won’t recommend stay here since owner is not honest doing business. Room no shampoo and please bring your own personal shower gel and shampoo, shower room is very small, condition is bad overall . Internet way too too slow..
