Cabañas Morerava

Rapa Nui (Easter Island)


There’s not much in the way of a view here as this establishment is located inland, but there’s nothing to disturb your dreams on this bucolic property. The four cottages are stylishly built with natural materials – it helps that the owners are architects – and can sleep up to six people. It's on the outskirts of town, but bikes are provided.
