Anyone looking to rent a holiday apartment in Antofagasta should first decide based on the type of trip they want: in the Antofagasta area, the Pacific coast and the Atacama Desert meet within a relatively small regional area. This allows you to align your accommodation search from the outset with your planned coastal, urban or desert experiences.

Key facts

Antofagasta is the capital of the region of the same name in northern Chile. The region is strongly shaped economically and culturally by mining and its connection to the port. This regional character complements the landscape experiences with a historical and urban perspective.

Coast, city or regional excursions?

Those who want to combine the coast, promenade, historic sites and urban attractions can focus their accommodation search on the city of Antofagasta. The city is described as having an extensive coastal promenade, several artificial beaches, the historic area around Muelle Melbourne Clark and a local culinary route.

A coastal focus is a good fit for La Portada, the coastal area and the city's artificial beaches. A desert focus, by contrast, directs planning towards regional landmarks such as the Mano del Desierto. The right accommodation base therefore depends on the planned combination of experiences.

City history and natural landmarks outside the city

La Portada is a distinctive natural rock arch on the coast of Antofagasta. The Parque Nacional Morro Moreno is also located in the wider surroundings of the city, a regional natural landmark with continental, marine and insular environments. Southeast of Antofagasta, the Mano del Desierto is another regional artistic and desert landmark.

Those who want to combine coastal and desert experiences should consider not only the type of accommodation when searching, but also its location in relation to the planned regional landmarks.
