Salty seclusion in Bolivia at The White Pods at Kachi Lodge
Amazing Escapes has created a space in which guests can appreciate the comfort of a standard hotel room in the unusual setting of a dome atop the Uyuni Salt Flats. Each dome includes its own private bathroom complete with proper heating. A cozy interior styled with soft carpeting and lanterns embraces the cold outdoors. The absence of Wifi allows guests to enjoy and appreciate the natural beauty of their surroundings from within the bubble. Kachi Lodge provides travelers with a one of a kind unique experience being the only property located directly on the Salar. Guests can travel from the property on mountain bikes, or follow hiking trails around the area to explore beyond the flats. Upon returning to the secluded domes, starry night skies can be appreciated with the provided telescopes.
