Hotel Termas de Mamina

Hotel Termas de Mamiña sits at roughly 2,700 metres in the Atacama altiplano, in the village of Mamiña — whose Aymara name means 'girl of my eyes' — about 120 km east of Iquique in Chile's Tarapacá Region. The resort's 80 rooms, some with private jacuzzis and valley-view balconies, draw on mineral-rich thermal waters containing sulfur and iodine, long recognized locally for traditional therapeutic use in skin, respiratory, and rheumatological conditions. The operating company, Termas de Mamiña S.A., was incorporated in 1993.
