Casa de Isla Negra

Visiting Pablo Neruda’s house in Isla Negra is an incredible and emotional experience. The museum is beautifully preserved, and walking through it truly feels like being in Neruda’s presence. Every room reflects his spirit, creativity, and deep connection to the sea. Being in the home of such a great poet is both inspiring and unforgettable.

Beautiful setting, fascinating glimpse into the life of one of Chile's best loved figures. There is a local craft market nearby as well.

Worth to visit if you came to Valparaíso with the car. As interesting as other two Neruda’s houses-museums.

My third visit to this amazing museum. Enjoy the eclectic collectibles gathered by Neruda on his world travels. Be sure to watch the film at the beginning (Spanish with English subtitles) as it provides essential historical context for the wonders you will see on the tour. Self-guided with a recording for each "stop". The restaurant has excellent food, with a menu inspired by Neruda's own culinary tastes and life story. He was particularly fond of hearty soups and stews! Perfect food if the weather is chilly...on an astounding patio overlooking the pounding surf of the Pacific. Excellent gift shop with books, clothing and collectibles. Lovely setting - public beach below, steps from the door of the museum. However, do not swim as the undertow is an extreme hazard. There are many artisans and craftspeople selling jewelry and souvenirs outside.

The house of Pablo Neruda a poeta a Novel Price winner, a Chilean icon. The place is on the ocean literally build on the rocks on isla Negra. Now become pretty tourists and is quite difficult to find parking space. Overall is a good place to visit and shop traditional Chilean souvenir.

Very nice museum/house! The introductory video was not too long and had English subtitles and helpful to watch. The waiting queue was a little long, but easy to manage with company. The audio guide was good to hear and also available in different languages as also the tour guide/aid spoke English. The audio chapters were interesting, maybe still a little too long, but all in all also just nice to stay in the rooms and not hushed away. The house and the story behind was impressive. Even would visit again!

I have been to Casa Isla Negra several times. It never fails to disappoint. Each time I see new details I may not have seen in previous visits. It really is an interesting place to visit. It is a little sad to see that the land is reclaiming Neruda's boat. I'm not sure if it may be preserved at some point.

The experience of being in the house where Neruda spent the last years of his life is magical. We analyze many details and objects of the place with their narration devices, which are available in Spanish, English and Portuguese. I went there about 16:10 and could only enter the house one hour later, because of the long line. Not only the interior of the house is amazing, but the view is also magnificent, the beach and the seagulls and the clear sky... It was totally worth the price.

Visited this house/museum during a visit to Valparaiso. There are several Neruda houses but this one is absolutely worth visiting as it seems to have the most collections and is in a stunning location. It is on a hill overlooking the ocean and the inside is filled with a ton of stuff the writer collected over the years. Photography is not allowed inside. There is a small gift shop. The entrance fee of about $10/pp includes and audio guide - I'm never much of a fan for audio guides but this one's good to have as there are 14 stops and you get interesting anecdotes at each on various artifacts. Getting there is about equal distance from either Santiago or Valparaiso but there doesn't seem to be direct buses from Valparaiso. Uber or taxi from Valparaiso is around $40 one way.
