Good place. Well located. Music on the hotel bar is too loud and disruptive for sleeping.

A wonderful hotel. Breakfast should include bacon instead of Weiners. Nice a quiet with exception of the street dogs barking. Very annoying however this is not the hotel’s fault

Banana's was an unexpected, it the good sense. Different that a local hotel in a Peruvian Oasis. All the check in process was good, the ambience super and drinks and food good. Rooms nice and comfortable, the lack of A/C can be felt during the day specially in a dessert area. But at the end was a pleasent stay, can be a repeat.

We had a great stay here. Location was excellent and the bar/cafe area was lovely to relax in. Only suggestion would be a lift to make getting to the top floors with your luggage easier.

Excellent hostel. Room was large, very comfortable and clean, good temperature, great view over the hotel pool and the sand dunes. Hot and powerful shower with shampoo / shower gel. The pool is nice and refreshing, good size. The communal areas are great, with nice music suited to the time of day/evening, excellent atmosphere. Food was really good! Much to our surprise we managed to get great healthy food, with a variety of options including for gluten free.
Also seen eco-friendly with an active effort to recycle, notices to try to keep showers short and to only ask for change of bedding if necessary.
Also able to arrange tours for good value without the hassle of haggling with street vendors.
Nothing bad to say about the place.

We spent one night in Huacachina to go sand skiing (AMAZING!!!!) and chose Bananas Adventure Hostel. We got a private room overlooking the pool. At first we were concerned that it might be noising at night but the staff is great about turning all music off by 11:00 (maybe earlier as we went to sleep earlier and didn't hear anything). Since it is a hostel, we were probably the oldest there (late 50s) but never felt out of place. The breakfast was quite good as was our meals. Drinks were also very good.

The bedroom was a good size, clean and pleasantly decorated. The shower was good. A comfortable bed although a little smaller than I’d like for two people. The place had a good vibe with a wide cross section of people, nationalities and ages. Our room faced on to the bar and pool area but the noise wasn’t too intrusive and has faded out by 11:00.
The hotel was just off the centre of the town but within very easy access to everything. The prices were fair for the area. Overall a good experience that I would be happy to repeat.

Good location, good facilities and they offered all the main tours you'd do in Huacachina at a very reasonable price.
The food was also really good - their chilli sauce was some of the best I've had on my trip!
3.0
This was by far our favorite place in all of Peru. The staff was incredible, the food was better than ANY of the high-end restaurants we ate at, and the people we met along the way were equally as amazing. I can't say enough about Bananas. Huacachina is amazing in and of itself!
5.0
What a great spot to stay for a night or two and visit the dunes on their buggy/boarding experience (suggest the 2pm trip so you can see the sunset on the walk back down the dunes). As a couple in their thirties the private room was the perfect balance between hostel and hotel, we had a clean double room with private bath. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, a cool temp pool to plunge in and a beach vibe. Security was good as well. Not for a couple or person looking for an upscale experience but if you want fun, clean and friendly in a awesome location this is a great choice!

Room had everything I needed. Door felt flimsy and was on ground floor beside bar. Took me a while to find room as I could not hear person at reception very well. I was generally one of the oldest at the place.

Overall, this property is nice but the check in process was horrendous. They totally screwed up on our rooms. The food and the drinks were good and the staff was nice. Huacachina is definitely fun and worth the experience.

We had a very good stay at Bananas Hostel. Directly on the oasis. The includes breakfest was basic. Clean room

Nice hostel with private rooms and bathrooms, nice pool and very nice atmosphere. It is probably the best food in Huacachina, especially the beef taquenos. Only downside is there is no AC but in the height of summer it isint too bad with the fan and windows open. Very clean and modern design too.

Great: tours and activities arranged by the property for a very reasonable price (35 soles / ~$9 for a 2 hour wine and Pisco tasting including transport.)
Social environment.
Room was a bit lackluster, bed and linens not super comfortable but the shower was great.
Price is high for the quality but understandably so because of the location of the small oasis, and the swimming pool.
