We loved the out of the way location on the water and the quiet area. The room was on the smaller side but more than adequate and the facilities, including the shared kitchen, common area, and communal deck were useful and convenient. The staff was friendly, responsive and helpful.

The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. Especially after we had an issue with our ferry and could not check in until 6:30am, they were kind enough to check us in at that time. The hotel is beautiful and the rooms.arw clean, comfortable and have amazing views of the lake. We were able to cook our own meal in the community kitchen and they were also able to arrange a laundry service for us. We are very pleased with our visit and only wish we could have stayed longer.

The architecture, design, and care everything was being done was outstanding. Truly a beautiful place, and the people attending it were very friendly and helpful.

Good location to explore the Chiloe National Park: approx. 5 minutes walk to the entrance. My standard double room had a beautiful view and was very comfortable: spacious, comfy bed and proper bathroom (including good shower). The hostess was very helpful (also in English). Good breakfast.

The WIFI was often inaccessible and when working was very very slow. This may be a function of the location. The Lodge might want to look into providing additional outdoor seating as the deck chairs were sparse and almost always occupied.
