Hospedaje Yemaya

I really liked this place. Great location, friendly owner, solid rooms with hot water and strong fans (a must in Nazca), and, for the second time this trip, the owner quoted me a LOWER price than I was expecting to pay….the benefits of traveling in mega-low season. I feel bad for the guy because I got scammed by a local tourist agency, and I complained to him about it, and he was furious. He called the company (see my review about AeroMajoro=ladrones) elsewhere….and they blamed him! So, in the end, I think he felt like he was to blame because he recommended a shitty company to me, but I don’t begrudge him. Plus, he let me keep my bag in a room, go out for a second tour, AND use his shower and bathroom throughout the afternoon, even 10 hours after I had checked out. Nearly all tourists leave at night from Nazca, and if you are one of these people, I highly recommend staying at Yemaya and doing the afternoon tour he recommends. It visits some desert scenery that rivals that of Huacachina and includes mummies buried in the sand, dune buggy adventure, ruins, and sandboarding. Plus, I got back in plenty of time to go file my police report on the airline that tried unsuccessfully to swindle me (not that I’m bitter about that or anything…..).

Please bear in mind that I likely got the best room in the place (since I'm traveling in the low season), and I got it for a rock bottom price. Those traveling in June-August may may double for an inferior room!
