Kachi Lodge in Bolivia
One hour from La Paz, Bolivia (LAP), by air, Kachi Lodge offers an unforgettable experience at Bolivia’s amazing Salar de Uyuni — the world’s largest salt flat. Located at an altitude of almost 12,000 feet, this sustainable but luxurious hotel is a unique escape from the stresses of daily life. Surrounded by 4,000 square miles of gleaming salt, the incredibly flat, often barren landscape can have a surreal, perspective-bending effect. During the rainy season, when the salt flats are covered in a thin sheet of water, you can lose all sense of where the sky begins and the earth ends.
Each 300-square-foot domed tent (there are only six) features “bohemian chic” décor and a pellet stove for warmth and a private, ensuite bathroom. A large window in the front gives guests unparalleled views of the white expanse outside — and the infinite sky at night. Bolivian solitude and isolation aren’t inexpensive: The Lodge requires a minimum two-night stay, and rates start at around £1,800 per night for double occupancy.
