Hotel AWA sits directly on the shore of Lake Llanquihue, one of Chile's most spectacular bodies of water, with the snow-capped Osorno and Calbuco volcanoes rising dramatically across the water. Every room in this recently built property has been designed around that view — floor-to-ceiling windows, private balconies in the suites, king-size beds positioned so you wake up facing the water, and fireplaces that make the long Patagonian evenings feel genuinely cozy rather than just atmospheric. The private bathrooms come fitted with spa baths, and the overall feel of the rooms is one of considered comfort rather than showy excess.
Beyond the rooms, the hotel has put serious thought into how guests actually spend their time. The indoor swimming pool is panoramic, meaning you swim while looking directly out over the lake — an experience that's hard to match anywhere in the region. There's also a sauna, hammam, hot tubs, and a full spa offering massage therapies and treatments. Complimentary bicycles are available for exploring the surrounding landscape, and the concierge can organize fishing trips, hikes through the nearby national parks, or skiing on Osorno volcano depending on the season.
The on-site restaurant focuses on regional cuisine, drawing from the rich culinary traditions of Chilean lake country — think fresh local fish, slow-cooked meats, and produce from nearby farms, paired with drinks at the bar. Guests receive a welcome drink on arrival and a complimentary breakfast each morning. With free parking on site, airport shuttle service available, and a location just under 17 miles from Puerto Varas's town center, Hotel AWA functions equally well as a base for exploration or simply as a destination in itself.
