Day 35 November 7 2026 Easter Island

We arrived on Easter Island around 12:30 p.m. local time and took our transfer to the hotel.

When we arrived, we were shocked by the condition of the place. The tiles in the lobby area were broken and lifting up, creating a tripping hazard. Our first impression of the room wasn't much better. It is in desperate need of paint and general maintenance.

The best part is the large number of roosters wandering around the property. I'm really looking forward to the early morning wake-up calls that I never asked for.

To be fair, the hotel is relatively clean and is well located for restaurants and other amenities. The photos on Expedia must be 20 years old, or maybe they were touched up with AI.

After getting settled, we went for a long walk around town and came across our first moai and went for a very late lunch/supper.
