Also, if anyone visits Rapa Nui (I recommend it), don't stay at Nayara Hangaroa, it's the only non-locally owned hotel, and the locals don't like it and put up protest signs around the property.

There was a settlement with the Hito family in 2020 that gave them back control of the land the hotel is on, so it's probably kosher to stay there these days.
RandomBacon•7mo ago
I can't find any info on that, where did you hear that?

I was there in 2018, so after the Hito family occupied the hotel and were forceably removed in 2011. Apparently the Chile Supreme Court upheld the hotel's ownership of that land.

Heard it from my MIL, who is from rapa nui and likes to fill me in on all the local happenings. I tried searching and I can't find much online (but I don't speak Spanish), but I do see on the resort site, the about page has an "our family" section about the Hitos: https://nayarahangaroa.com/about/

Not proof positive but indicative of there not being bad blood anymore there
