“Excellent accommodation - cannot recommend more strongly!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 week ago via mobile

We chose Hareswiss having been impressed by other tripadvisor reviews - and what a wonderful place it was! An idyll of tranquility just outside Hanga Roa. The bungalow was spotlessly clean, airy and with beautiful views of the sea. There was also a kitchenette in the bungalow which meant we were able to self-cater. Peter, the Swiss owner, was a...

“Lovely bungalows on Easter Island/Rapa Nui”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 weeks ago

We booked at Hareswiss based on all the stellar TripAdvisor reviews and we weren’t disappointed. Hareswiss is owned and run by a Swiss/Rapanui couple, although we mostly interacted with Peter (the Swiss portion of the couple). Peter is very friendly and incredibly knowledgeable about all things Easter Island. He picked us up at the airport (included in the room rate)... More

“Love this place!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed August 21, 2016

Perfect view of the most beautiful sunsets with Tahai (the nicest place on the island to view sunsets) within a short walking distance. Close to mysterious caves, the highest point of the island and the island's museum and a 20 minute walk from the city. Perfect location with the perfect hosts that will always look out to see if you... More

“Great place to stay on Easter Island”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 19, 2016

Peter and Tiere are wonderful hosts at these relaxing cabanas a reasonable walk from town. Being 20 minutes out you get the peace and quiet of the countryside and less light pollution for seeing the night sky. Great views down to Cooks Bay and your first introduction to the Moai as you past half a dozen on your walk into... More

“Wonderful accommodation on Easter Island”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed June 12, 2016

We had a 4 night stay in the bungalows at Hareswiss, and I don't think we could have chosen better accommodation. I have just read other reviews and feel like I would be repeating so much. So I think the best advice I can give, is to say that you can definitely believe all the positive comments that have already... More

“Cozy, quiet bungalow@ Easter Island”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed May 20, 2016

We stayed at Hareswiss for 4 night on NOV2015. Located away from downtown but that gave us a very good chance to walk back along with beautiful sunset everyday(around 20mins walk). At that time, Peter was busy taking care of his new born baby, he was unable to operate the local tour which we joined the local tour company instead.... More

“Beats expectations - great bungalows and amazing host”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed April 16, 2016

My wife and I stayed at Hareswiss for 5 nights. The location is wonderful (slightly off the main township, which in fact gives guests a perfect opportunity to walk along the beautiful western coastline and also offers perfect quietude), the ocean/sunset views unmatched and the cabins very well-maintained. Attention to detail makes for pleasant and convenient stay. House-keeping in the... More

“Stay with Peter”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed April 3, 2016

Another reviewer wrote it quite well: If you are in Easter Island you do not have to look anywhere else. Just stay with Peter. Our bungalow was clean, spacious with a nice view towards the ocean. Its 20 minutes walk from town or a fixed 3.000 peso taxi ride. In theory you can cook in the bungalow but its probably... More

Perfect for a stay on Easter Island. The bungalows are clean, spacious, and have a great view from the balcony. But as other reviewers have said, Peter makes it great. It's the personal touches really set this apart. Every day upon returning from hiking or the beach, the room was clean and a fresh pastry from the bakery was waiting,... More
